  • Patent number: 12271794
    Abstract: An online system extracts information from a user for use in workflows using a machine learning-based language mode. The online system creates a weighted epoch tree comprising epoch nodes, each epoch node associated with a time interval associated with the user. An epoch node has a relevance score determined based on a set of events associated with the user that occurred during a time interval. The online system builds the weighted epoch tree by selecting an epoch node for further exploration based on relevance scores and determining a question relevant to a context represented by the selected epoch node. The online system determines an answer to the question and either adds the answer to an existing node or to new epoch nodes added to the weighted epoch tree. The online system may use the weighted epoch tree for generating a synthetic statement for the user.

  • Patent number: 12265590
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enhancing performance of a search engine by using pre-existing fine-tuned machine learning models that include domain-specific knowledge. A computing device receives search results from a search engine based on a query, in which the search results include chunk identifiers and a first weight score associated with each chunk identifier. The computing device further determines a subset of search results, which includes a first predetermined number of top-ranked chunk identifiers in the search results. The computing device generates, for each chunk identifier in the subset of search results, one or more second weight scores. Then the computing device generates, via a machine learning model, ensemble scores for the chunk identifiers. Afterwards, the computing device determines a second predetermined number of top-ranked chunk identifiers based on the ensemble scores.

  • Patent number: 12242449
    Abstract: Systems and processes disclosed herein perform an automatic remediation process. The automatic remediation process may be a log-based remediation process. Systems disclosed herein may obtain log files from an information management system and determine the occurrence of errors at the information management system based on error codes included in the logs. Further, the systems may access a knowledgebase to determine whether solutions for the errors have been previously generated. The solutions may include patches or hotfixes that can be applied to the information management system without removing user-access or stopping execution of the information management system. The systems may automatically update the information management system to address the errors. Alternatively, or in addition, the systems may alert a user, such as an administrator, of the existence of a solution to the error, and whether the solution may be applied without interrupting service or access to the information management system.

  • Patent number: 12178172
    Abstract: Exemplary methods for use in identifying crosses for use in plant breeding are disclosed. One exemplary method includes generating population prediction scores for each potential cross within a set of potential crosses, where each population prediction score is associated with a prediction of commercial success for the associated potential cross within the set of potential crosses. The method also includes selecting a subgroup of potential crosses, based on thresholds associated with the population prediction scores for the set of potential crosses. The exemplary method further includes selecting multiple target crosses from the subgroup of potential crosses based on a genetic relatedness of the parents in the subgroup of potential crosses, and directing ones of the selected target crosses into a breeding pipeline, thereby providing crosses to the breeding pipeline based, at least in part, on commercial success of parents included in the selected ones of the filtered crosses.

  • Patent number: 12175429
    Abstract: A computer system is provided that stores reference data records and event data records that each correspond to one of the reference data records. Tokens are generated from the reference data records and sorted into subsets. Each reference data record that has a given token is included in the corresponding subset. A correlation value is calculated between members (e.g., the reference data records) of the subsets. The correlation values are calculated by determining a common time, calculating a reference value, calculating a percentage difference from the reference value, and then determining a correlation value (e.g., a correlation coefficient) using the percentage difference.
