Abstract: Described herein is a technology that facilitates the production of and the use of automated datagens for event-based systems. A datagen (i.e., data-generator or data generation system) is a component, module, or subsystem of computer systems that searches, monitors, and analyzes machine data. Existing datagens are not capable of detecting an anomaly in machine data. An anomaly is a variance in the input data stream that exceeds some acceptable amount of deviation from the norm (i.e., standard, expectation, etc.). An embodiment of datagen, in accordance with the technology described herein, detects anomalies in the input machine data.

The method includes receiving output of the sampling as feature inputs to one or more machine learning models and deriving one or more label inferences of a behavior state of the shopper in connection with a state of the item. At least one processing entity associated with the store detects the state of the item to change from one as item handled by said shopper to one as item queued for purchase.

Abstract: Because digital assistants tend to have different areas of expertise and/or different abilities to fulfill a given request, it is sometimes difficult for a user to know which digital assistant is best able to fulfill a request. Representative embodiments disclose mechanisms to increase federate digital assistants so that a user's request can be funneled to the digital assistant best able to fulfill the user's request. A meta-assistant gathers information on skills provided by a set of digital assistants. The meta-assistant also gathers completion data for requests for different digital assistants and user satisfaction information. A user submits a request to the meta-assistant. The meta-assistant extracts user intent from the request and redirects the user's request to the digital assistant best able to fulfill the request. Embodiments can utilize trained machine learning models or scored algorithmic approaches to select the digital assistant.

Abstract: An omnichannel intelligent negotiation assistant for generating timely, contextual negotiation assistance to a negotiator. The invention includes a semantic term extractor for converting a contract document into a negotiable term sheet. An omnichannel listener captures all negotiation inputs associated with a negotiation event, sequences each negotiation input by time, and analyzes the sentiment of the negotiation inputs in the context of a term sheet. The resulting annotated negotiation input stream is processed by an intervention generator that includes models of the parties and the negotiation itself as well as a referent negotiation model. The intervention generator includes a game theoretic model that, in concert with a trade-off matrix, allows the intervention generator to produce timely contextual interventions to the negotiator that assist in achieving a superior resulting negotiated agreement.
