Publication number: 20240037342Abstract: A computing system identifies an incoming voice call from a user device to an agent device associated with the computing system. The computing system generates a transcription of the incoming voice call using one or more natural language processing techniques. The computing system extracts a problem description from the transcription. The problem description indicates a topic for the incoming voice call. A first machine learning model estimates a situation vector from the problem description. A second machine learning model identifies a pre-existing situation vector that closely matches the estimated situation vector. The computing system retrieves a situation description that corresponds to the identified pre-existing situation vector.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Applicant: INTUIT INC.Inventors: Rami COHEN, Noa HAAS, Oren Sar SHALOM, Alexander ZHICHAREVICH

Patent number: 11727058Abstract: A method involves receiving search queries, having search terms, submitted to at least one computerized search engine. For each query, a corresponding pairwise relation in the search queries is calculated. The corresponding pairwise relation is a corresponding probability of a potential edge relationship between at least two terms. Thus, potential edges are formed. A general graph of the terms is constructed by selecting edges from the potential edges. The general graph is nodes representing the terms used in the search queries. The general graph also is edges representing semantic relationships among the nodes.

Patent number: 11688393Abstract: A method including embedding, by a trained issue MLM (machine learning model), a new natural language issue statement into an issue vector. An inner product of the issue vector with an actions matrix is calculated. The actions matrix includes centroid-vectors calculated using a clustering method from a second output of a trained action MLM which embedded prior actions expressed in natural language action statements taken as a result of prior natural issue statements. Calculating the inner product results in probabilities associated with the prior actions. Each of the probabilities represents a corresponding estimate that a corresponding prior action is relevant to the issue vector. A list of proposed actions relevant to the issue vector is generated by comparing the probabilities to a threshold value and selecting a subset of the prior actions with corresponding probabilities above the threshold. The list of proposed actions is transmitted to a user device.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: INTUIT INCInventors: Shlomi Medalion, Alexander Zhicharevich, Yair Horesh, Oren Sar Shalom, Elik Sror, Adi Shalev

Publication number: 20230107118Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein may extract trending topics from phone call transcripts or any type of text data. The phone call transcripts may be collected for a time period and the time period may be divided into time spans. For each time span having more than a threshold number of phone call transcripts, n-grams from the phone call transcripts may be extracted. The extracted n-grams may be contextually clustered by converting the n-grams into their embedding vectors, reducing the dimensionality of the embedding vectors, and clustering similar reduced dimensionality embedding vectors. Normalized occurrences of one or more clusters may be generated. The recent mean of the number of occurrences of the normalized clusters may be compared with the historical mean and offset by historical standard deviation to generate a modified Z-score. N-grams corresponding to the clusters with high Z-scores may be identified as trending topics.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2021Publication date: April 6, 2023Applicant: INTUIT INC.Inventors: Yonatan BEN-SIMHON, Nitzan GADO, Ido FARHI, Alexander ZHICHAREVICH
