Abstract: A contact center server provides to an agent device one or more automated response recommendations determined by an executable virtual assistant platform to correspond to customer message data received from a customer device as part of conversation data. Further, the contact center server receives a selection of one of the automated response recommendations from the agent device and identifies agent response data to the customer message data transmitted from the agent device to the customer device. Further, the contact center server, using one or more classification models, determines when there is a change between the selected response recommendation and the identified agent response data. Further, the contact center server associates one or more tags to the identified agent response data in the conversation data when the determination indicates the change.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for extracting micro-features at a pixel-level based on characteristics of one or more images. Importantly, the extraction is unsupervised, i.e., performed independent of any training data that defines particular objects, allowing a behavior-recognition system to forgo a training phase and for object classification to proceed without being constrained by specific object definitions. A micro-feature extractor that does not require training data is adaptive and self-trains while performing the extraction. The extracted micro-features are represented as a micro-feature vector that may be input to a micro-classifier which groups objects into object type clusters based on the micro-feature vectors.
