  • Patent number: 12008586
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable the prediction of activity distribution across mediums of activities by employing processors that receive an activity record history across channels of mediums of activity. A candidate activity channel profile of a future activity channel is received that includes candidate channel attributes including: a medium attribute identifying the medium, and an activity category attribute identifying a category of activities of the future activity channel. Cannibalization forecasting models are used to predict channel metrics based on the candidate channel attributes and model parameters trained on the activity record history. New candidate channel attributes are automatically generated that improve the at least one channel metric based on the at least one channel metric, and a new candidate activity channel profile is automatically modified using the new candidate channel attributes. The channel metrics are displayed on computing devices associated with users.

  • Patent number: 12007869
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a plurality of devices may be respectively mapped to a plurality of interaction types. Statistical models may be generated, where the statistical models are indicative of relationships between aggregated interaction data related to the interaction types and aggregated resource utilization data related to the devices. With respect to each interaction type of the interaction types, the statistical models may be scored based on strength of one or more of the relationships. A subset of the statistical models may be selected based on the scoring for the interaction types. As an example, a first statistical model is included in the subset based on the scoring related to a first interaction type and a second statistical model is included in the subset based on the scoring related to a second interaction type different from the first interaction type. One or more of the devices may be remapped to one or more interaction types based on the selected subset of the statistical models.

  • Patent number: 12007958
    Abstract: A method or system for generating recommendations based on detected correlations of static and dynamic data. For example, the system generates feature inputs for the machine learning model that is based on labeled static data as well as dynamic data indicating current usage. Notably, the dynamic data is not retrieved from a data store of known training data, but instead is streamed in real time from active databases accessible to the network. Furthermore, the system provides a formatting mechanism that translates user selected requirements and parameters from a human-readable format indicating particular attributes of a database to optimize (e.g., database performance, security, compliance, capacity planning, etc.) into data that may be included in a machine learning feature input that specifies which correlations to use (e.g., server operational statistics data, server log data, monitoring metrics, etc.).
