  • Patent number: 12271429
    Abstract: Enhanced methods for improving the performance of classifiers are described. A ground-truth labeled dataset is accessed. A classifier predicts a predicted label for datapoints of the dataset. A confusion matrix for the dataset and classifier is generated. A credibility interval is determined for a performance metric for each label. A first labels with a sufficiently large credibility interval is identified. A second label is identified, where the classifier is likely to confuse, in its predictions, the first label with the second label. The identification of the second label is based on instances of incorrect label predictions of the classifier for the first and/or the second labels. The classifier is updated based on a new third label that includes an aggregation of the first label and the second label. The updated classifier model predicts the third label for any datapoint that the classifier previously predicted the first or second labels.

  • Patent number: 12261809
    Abstract: Method and media for an interface for a context-aware conversational assistant. A hybrid system is disclosed that can take advantage of both a human agent's facility at interacting with the user and an automated system's speed and accuracy at information retrieval to quickly and accurately provide the user with the needed information. In response to a user query, the conversational assistant determines one or more responses that may be relevant and presents them in the chat window to the agent. If the conversational assistant correctly interpreted the question, the agent can quickly respond to the query using the pregenerated response. Otherwise, the agent can edit a pregenerated response or compose a new response from scratch.
