Patent number: 12293377Abstract: Monitoring transaction activity for system requests for a set of entities authorized to request services of a system is described. Entities with high feature values for respective features of the set of activity based features are identified to produce a set of outlier entities. The outlier entities are filtered from the set of entities. A set of clusters are created from the filtered set of entities based on the set of activity based features so that each entity in the filtered set of entities is assigned to a cluster. Values for the set of activity based features are established for each cluster. A risk is assigned for each cluster based on the values of one or more of the set of activity based features. Each of the filtered set of entities are monitored based on the risk assigned to the respective clusters to which the respective entities belong.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2021Date of Patent: May 6, 2025Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Christopher Sidler, Raymond Strecker, Michael A Dawson, Sankar Virdhagriswaran, Jon E Elvin

Patent number: 12265971Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and computer program for adjusting operations of a customer service application based on metrics generated as a result of substantially real-time monitoring of entity states within the customer service application. The system receives entity events from a plurality of services associated with the customer service application. It tracks states of entities in substantially real time within the customer service application based on the events and the state machine logic for the customer service application, including identifying any entities in an anomalous state. For each non-anomalous state transition, one or more state transition measurements are calculated. The system generates metrics for the customer service application based on the state transition measurements for entities in a non-anomalous state and adjusts the operations of the customer service application in substantially real time based on the metrics.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2020Date of Patent: April 1, 2025Assignee: ASAPP, Inc.Inventors: Shang-wei Wang, Wyndham Bolling Blanton

Patent number: 12154117Abstract: Embodiments described herein are generally directed to use of a chatbot to identify a customer-specified product support issue and provide appropriate troubleshooting guidance. According to an example, free text input describing an issue associated with a product line of a vendor is received from a user via a chatbot. A vector representation of the issue is created by tokenizing and vectorizing the free text input using a word association model corresponding to the product line. It is determined whether the issue matches at least one category within multiple issue categories for the product line by performing similarity scoring between the vector representation and multiple vectors created based on top words per issue category of the multiple issue categories. Responsive to an affirmative determination, an automated, interactive, conversational troubleshooting dialog is initiated with the user via the chatbot and guided based on a decision tree for the at least one category.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2021Date of Patent: November 26, 2024Assignee: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LPInventors: Mainak Das, Sean Charles Lennon, Salman Mumin Ahmed, Richard Shelby Dunlap

Patent number: 11790375Abstract: Machine learning-based approaches are used to automatically establish customer support sessions and/or assign customer support requests to customer support agents or other appropriate resources. For example, during a customer support session between a customer and a customer support agent, a trained model can process session data obtained during the session to determine prediction information (e.g., a next message prediction score, a predicted time for receiving a next message, a capacity score, etc.) The prediction information can be compared to an appropriate threshold to determine whether to establish a customer support session and/or assign a customer support request to the agent, even though the agent may otherwise be considered at capacity. In the situation it is determined to establish a session and/or assign a request to the agent, a session can be established and/or a request can be assigned to the agent based on scheduling or other information.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2019Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: ASAPP, INC.Inventors: Igor Gitlevich, Max Sperlich
