  • Patent number: 12762406
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices generate predictive data segments using machine learning and natural language processing. The method receives training data with digital identifiers and binary classification labels indicating target outcomes. It accesses external data sources containing textual attribute descriptions, which are preprocessed by concatenating multiple descriptions per identifier for large language model input. The model outputs high-dimensional vector embeddings encoding semantic relationships. A neural network trains using these embeddings and classification labels to predict probability scores. For new data, the method preprocesses textual descriptions, generates embeddings via the language model, and applies the neural network to produce probability scores representing conversion propensity values. It selects digital identifiers with scores exceeding a configurable threshold and transmits them to a digital platform for prioritized resource allocation.

  • Patent number: 12749019
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for accelerated learning. A computer partitions an independent variable of input data into partitions. A computer creates data samples in each of the partitions, where each of the data samples has less granularity. For each of the partitions, a computer trains a machine learning model independently on each of the data samples and compares results of training on the data samples. For each of one or more partitions in which results of training on a predetermined number of the data samples are statistically identical at a predetermined confidence level, a computer outputs a result of training on one of the data samples. For each of one or more rest partitions in which no result of training has been outputted, a computer merges each pair of the data samples and uses merged data samples to train the machine learning model.
