Abstract: Multitier, multitenant architecture of pods comprise multiple stacks with different metrics and workload compositions that constantly change over time. A computer system may identify an overall pod time-to-live (TTL) based on the changing metrics and workloads. The TTL may be a forecasted time that pod remediation is needed to avoid negative impact on pod performance and customer experience. Additionally, the computer system may identify the appropriate remediation(s) for each pod. The computer system may compare and prioritize remediations across a collection of pods with different configurations and workload characteristics based on the TTLs. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: A user provides a description of a neural network to a visualization tool. The visualization tool displays a user interface that includes a visual of the neural network based on the description. If the user interacts with a node or connection, for example by placing a cursor on the node/connection in the user interface, the user interface displays information associated with the node/connection. If the user selects a node of a layer, the neural network is applied to an input that corresponds to the selection and the user interface displays the propagation of the input through the neural network. Additionally, the user interface displays results from applying the neural network to the input.

Abstract: The communication system includes a core system having a processor storing user variables representing user-specific information. A messaging system supports communication between a user and an automated bot agent over at least one user-chosen channel employing channel-agnostic context variables. A runtime system mediates a conversation session between user and bot agent, using at least one predefined context variable. A context mapping data store stores a mapping configuration representing a correlation between the channel-agnostic variable of the user-chosen channel and a field in the core CRM system. Using the context mapping data store, the messaging system responds to a communication from the user by querying the context mapping data store to acquire and pass to the runtime system the resolved mapping configuration values corresponding to the user-chosen channel for each defined context variable.

Abstract: Approaches for determining a response for an agent in an undirected dialogue are provided. The approaches include a dialogue generating framework comprising an encoder neural network, a decoder neural network, and a language model neural network. The dialogue generating framework generates a sketch sentence response with at least one slot. The sketch sentence response is generated word by word and takes into account the undirected dialogue and agent traits of the agent making the response. The dialogue generating framework generates sentence responses by filling the slot with words from the agent traits. The dialogue generating framework ranks the sentence responses according to perplexity by passing the sentence responses through a language model and selects a final response which is a sentence response that has a lowest perplexity.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for using screen shots of an application to evaluate whether the application is in a fault state.
