  • Patent number: 11315590
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for voice and graphical user interfaces. One of the methods includes receiving an audio input, analyzing the audio input to determine a requested task, determining response data in response to the requested task, determining at least a first part of the response data to be presented as an audio output and at least a second part of the response data to be presented as a visual output, forwarding the first part of the response data to an audio output for presentation to a user, forwarding the second part of the response data to a visual output for presentation to a user; and forwarding to at least one of the audio output and the visual output data describing sources and/or assumptions used to construct the response data.

  • Publication number: 20220036387
    Abstract: A method of forecasting is provided. The method comprises forecasting, with a number of univariate models, a number of company-level metrics for a company over a specified time period according to company-specific historical data. A multivariate model is also used to forecast the company-level metrics over the specified time period according to the company-specific historical data and sector-level historical data related to an industry sector to which the company belongs. The forecasts of the univariate models and the multivariate model are combined into an ensemble model, which then forecasts the company-level metrics over the specified time period.

  • Patent number: 10592535
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating tailored user interface presentations based on microindustry clustering. According to various embodiments, the system accesses a set of entity profiles and a set of member profiles. The system determines a set of feature vectors for each entity of the set of entity profiles and identifies a set of movement data representing changes in association of one or more members from a first entity to a second entity. The system generates an entity graph for the set of entities and the set of members. The systems generate a first set of clusters in the entity graph, a second set of clusters by partitioning one or more of the first clusters, and a set of third clusters from the set of second clusters, combining one or more of the second clusters.
