  • Patent number: 11080717
    Abstract: A customer assistance guidance system includes an interface for communicating information to a customer relationship management (CRM) system. The system receives state information from the CRM system that defines a current interaction state between an agent of the CRM system and a customer. The system may predict, based on the state information, a next interaction state between an agent of the CRM system and the customer. The system may communicate the predicted next interaction state to the CRM system to facilitate the suggestion of a next course of action for the agent to perform.

  • Publication number: 20210232613
    Abstract: A domain-specific question answering system receives an end-user's question, identifies relevant information from domain-specific documents, composes a natural-language based response including the relevant information to be provided to the end-user. A knowledge base includes a domain-specific ontology and is built from data structures configured to preserve the hierarchy of the informational elements within the domain-specific documents. The question received from the end-user is analyzed to extract the features and the key phrases which are used to identify the relevant data structures. A pre-trained model that is further trained on domain-specific data is used to identify the sentences that include information responsive to the question. A response to the end-user's question is composed from the sentences. The question answering system also enables validation of the answers provided to the users' questions.

  • Patent number: 11075959
    Abstract: A system includes a security controller located within a central-zone in communication with a provisioned agent operating on an edge-zone device. The security controller may implement controller-blind security control on the edge-zone device by making security authorization determinations using a secure-operation confidence analysis performed by the provisioned agent. The provisioned agent, operating within the edge-zone, may have access to un-sanitized data, which may be unavailable to the security controller in the central-zone. The security controller may provide condition-descriptors via a secure-operation confidence assignment matrix. Using the condition-descriptors, the provisioned agent determine feedback, which may include a secure-operation confidence coefficient, based on the un-sanitized data to which the security controller is blind.

  • Patent number: 11074775
    Abstract: A system may facilitate distributed ledger technology (DLT) record based (for example, blockchain-based) voting. A voter may distribute vote-value to answers using committed tokens that bind the voter to a particular vote-value without divulging the particular vote value while in a cryptographic form. The voter may distribute committed tokens to multiple answers. In some cases, the distribution of the committed tokens to multiple answers may frustrate attempts to determine the one or more targets to which the voter delivers a non-null vote-value.
