  • Patent number: 11966340
    Abstract: To automate time series forecasting machine learning pipeline generation, a data allocation size of time series data may be determined based on one or more characteristics of a time series data set. The time series data may be allocated for use by candidate machine learning pipelines based on the data allocation size. Features for the time series data may be determined and cached by the candidate machine learning pipelines. Predictions of each of the candidate machine learning pipelines using at least the one or more features may be evaluated. A ranked list of machine learning pipelines may be automatically generated from the candidate machine learning pipelines for time series forecasting based upon evaluating predictions of each of the one or more candidate machine learning pipelines.

  • Publication number: 20230334241
    Abstract: Learning and correcting errors in text input fields to an artificial intelligence (AI) system includes receiving, by the AI system from a target system, an input text. The AI system executes a text processing operation on the input text by applying at least one transformer from a library of transformers to the input text to generate transformed text. At least one proposed correction to the input text is output by the AI system based on an analysis of the transformed text. Feedback data, associated with the at least one proposed correction, is then received from a user of the target system to iteratively learn, by the AI system, which of the transformers need be applied on future input text to accurately generate future proposed corrections on the future input text.
