  • Publication number: 20250265596
    Abstract: A service provider computing system includes memory having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to obtain a first set of complaint logs corresponding to one or more user complaints, each complaint log including a resolution comments field providing a textual representation of a resolution for a corresponding complaint log, parse the resolution comments field of each complaint log of the first set of complaint logs to identify one or more key terms, and execute a machine-learning predictive model using the one or more key terms to generate, for each complaint log, a prediction indicating whether a corresponding complaint should have compensation, the machine-learning predictive model being a supervised machine learning model configured to accept the parsed resolution comments field for the first set of complaint logs as inputs and to output the prediction for each complaint log.

  • Patent number: 12205053
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for using machine learning models to more reliably predict likelihoods of application failure. A model is trained to identify and display events that may cause high severity application failures. Logistic regression may be used to fit the model such that application features are mapped to a high severity event flag. Significant features of applications that relate to the high severity flag may be selected using stepwise regression. The identified applications may be displayed on a graphical user interface for review and reprioritization. Information may be ranked and displayed according to multiple different ranking criteria, such as one ranking generated by a first model, and another determined by one or more users. The multiple ranking criteria may be used to inform steps taken, and/or to retrain or tune the parameters of the model for subsequent predictions or classifications.

  • Publication number: 20250005490
    Abstract: A computing system receives issue data for a plurality of issues from a risk management system. The issue data for each respective issue of the plurality of issues includes an issue identifier and a due date for resolution of the respective issue. The computing system generates due date revision risk scores for the plurality of issues. A due date revision risk score for the respective issue indicates a predicted probability that the due date for resolution of the respective issue will need revision within a fixed period of time. The computing system generates a warning message for at least the respective issue of the plurality of issues based on the due date revision risk score for the respective issue being greater than a threshold. The computing system revises parameters of the at least one machine learning model based on due date revision outcomes associated with the plurality of issues.

  • Patent number: 12174874
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for automated prototyping of a topic model. An example method includes a data manipulation engine ingesting and pre-processing source data from a set of data sources, a feature extraction engine that thereafter transforms the pre-processed data into a set of numeric representations of the pre-processed data, and an autonomous model generator that automatically generates a trained topic model using the set of numeric representations. Embodiments further enable visualization of topic model output, which permits a user to easily consume and utilize information from a topic model for any number of purposes.
