  • Patent number: 11782759
    Abstract: Systems and methods are configured to perform prioritized processing of a plurality of processing objects under a time constraint. In various embodiments, a priority policy that includes deterministic prioritization rules, probabilistic prioritization rules, and a priority determination machine learning model is applied to the objects to determine high and low priority subsets. Here, the subsets are determined using the deterministic prioritization rules and a probabilistic ordering of the low priority subset is determined using the probabilistic prioritization rules and the priority determination machine learning model. In particular embodiments, the ordering is accomplished by determining a hybrid priority score for each object in the low priority subset based on a rule-based priority score and a machine-learning-based priority score.
