Patent number: 11799734Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for determining future user actions using time-based featurization of clickstream data. A server captures clickstream data corresponding to web browsing sessions and converts the clickstream data into tokens by identifying each unique URL and parsing each unique URL into tokens. The server generates a frequency matrix based upon the tokens, and generates a latent feature vector for each URL in the session based upon the frequency matrix. The server merges the latent feature vectors and the clickstream data into an aggregate clickstream vector set for a user. The server assigns time-decayed weight values to each latent feature vector in the aggregate clickstream vector set. The server combines the time-decayed latent feature vectors to generate a clickstream embedding for the user, and executes a machine learning model using the clickstream embedding to generate one or more predicted actions of the user.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2022Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: FMR LLCInventors: Emily Strong, Serdar Kadioglu, Manny Jain, Filip Michalsky, Alex Arias-Vargas, Siddharth Narayanan

Publication number: 20220188843Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for determining surrogate ground truth to enable fairness evaluation after completion of a campaign of interest. The surrogate ground truth indicates individuals who should have been contacted by the campaign of interest. The method includes receiving data for the campaign of interest and data for a previous campaign in relation to a population group selected for the previous campaign. The method also includes generating, before commencement of the campaign of interest, control and treatment models trained based on data collected from the previous campaign. The method further includes calculating, after completion of the campaign of interest, the surrogate ground truth using the trained control and treatment models and data collected from the campaign of interest.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2020Publication date: June 16, 2022Inventors: Filip Michalsky, Serdar Kadioglu

Patent number: 11361239Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for digital content classification and recommendation based upon reinforcement learning. A server converts unstructured text corresponding to each digital content item into a content item feature set. The server generates a user context vector associated with a plurality of users. The server trains a linear multi-armed bandit (MAB) classification model based upon the user context vectors and historical user content recommendation information. The server receives a new user context vector associated with a new user. The server executes the MAB model using the new user context vector as input to generate content interaction prediction scores. The server selects the content interaction prediction scores above a predetermined threshold and identifies the associated digital content item. The server presents the identified digital content items on a client device and receives a response. The server updates linear UCB coefficient vectors of the MAB model based upon the response.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2019Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: FMR LLCInventors: Pramod R, Anshuman Pradhan, Shishir Shekhar, Serdar Kadioglu, Alex Arias-Vargas

Patent number: 10936961Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for automated predictive product recommendations using reinforcement learning. A server captures historical activity data associated with a plurality of users. The server generates a context vector for each user, the context vector comprising a multidimensional array corresponding to historical activity data. The server transforms each context vector into a context embedding. The server assigns each context embedding to an embedding cluster. The server determines, for each context embedding, (i) an overall likelihood of successful attempt and (ii) an incremental likelihood of success associated products available for recommendation. The server calculates, for each context embedding, an incremental income value associated with each of the likelihoods of success. The server aggregates (i) the overall likelihood of successful attempt, (ii) the likelihoods of success, and (iii) the incremental income values into a recommendation matrix.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2020Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: FMR LLCInventors: Akshay Jain, Debalina Gupta, Shishir Shekhar, Bernard Kleynhans, Serdar Kadioglu, Alex Arias-Vargas

Patent number: 10248550Abstract: Techniques for selecting test configurations associated with a particular coverage strength using a constraint solver are disclosed. A set of parameters are configurable for conducting a test on a particular target application. A data model generator identifies one or more candidate test configurations based on the set of parameters. The data model generator determines a set of interactions based on a desired coverage strength. The data model generator specifies a selection variable indicating the candidate test configurations that are selected for testing the particular target application. The data model generator specifies constraint(s) minimizing the number of selected test configurations. The data model generator specifies constraint(s) requiring that each interaction be covered by at least one selected test configuration.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2017Date of Patent: April 2, 2019Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Serdar Kadioglu, Samir Sebbah

Patent number: 10146665Abstract: Computerized embodiments are disclosed for simulating requests and resources to be assigned to the requests by assignment logic. In one embodiment, a simulation session is initiated by generating test data that includes resource data, request data, and simulation state parameters. The test data is communicated to the assignment logic programmed to generate an assignment solution between resources and requests as represented by the resource data and the request data, respectively. The assignment solution is received from the assignment logic and the test data is updated. The test data can be updated by one or more of updating the simulation state parameters based on the assignment solution, adding at least one new request, or adding at least one new resource. The test data, as updated, is again communicated to the assignment logic and the process repeats until the simulation session is stopped.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2016Date of Patent: December 4, 2018Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventor: Serdar Kadioglu

Patent number: 10007538Abstract: Techniques for assigning applications to virtual machines (VMs) using constraint programming are disclosed. The applications are associated with application groups. The assignment problem requires that each application of a particular application group be assigned to a VM hosted by a same machine. A data model, for application to a constraint programming solver, formulates the assignment problem as a set of constraints for a solution to be found. The data model includes a set of data model elements corresponding to the applications to be processed. The data model includes a set of data model elements corresponding to the VMs. The data model includes a set of constraints that limits assignment of any particular application to a VM corresponding to a tenant associated with the particular application. The set of constraints further limits assignment of applications corresponding to a same application group to VMs executing on a same machine.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2016Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Serdar Kadioglu, Michael Colena, Samir Sebbah, Mirza Mohsin Beg
