Abstract: Methods and systems for routing messages based on message priority. In some aspects, the system may determine paths between a source and one or more destinations. The system may determine, for a first message, using a machine learning model, a first predicted path having a first distance. The system may determine, based on the first predicted path, using a Markov decision process, a priority of the first message. Based on determining that a first confidence score for the first predicted path does not exceed a threshold, the system may select a different path for the first message. The system may select the different path based on the priority of the first message and a second distance associated with the different path. The system may then re-direct the first message along the different path.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for machine learning algorithms that dynamically allocate traffic to contact strategies that are performing well, while allocating less traffic to contact strategies that are underperforming. In particular, the methods and systems discussed are for the use of a contextual multi-armed bandit framework for applications that have both immediate results and long-term results, in which immediate results are correlated with the long-term results (e.g., results related to debt collection strategies).

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a cutting tool assembly used for creating grooves in a microreplication tool. The cutting tool assembly includes a mounting structure and multiple diamonds aligned in the mounting structure to a tolerance of less than 10 microns. For example, first and second tool shanks having first and second diamond tips can be positioned in the mounting structure such that a cutting location of the first diamond tip is identical to a cutting location of the second diamond tip. However, the second diamond tip may be a defined distance further away from the mounting structure than the first diamond tip, or the second diamond tip may have a different shape than the first diamond tip. In this manner, the first diamond tip may cut a groove into a work piece and the second diamond tip may cut a sub-feature into the groove to create a multi-featured groove.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a cutting tool assembly that include multiple diamonds to define multiple cutting tips. A first diamond is positioned in the cutting tool assembly to create a first groove in a microreplication tool and a second diamond is positioned in the cutting tool assembly to create a second groove the microreplication tool, wherein the first and second grooves define integer pitch spacing of a microreplication structure to be created using the microreplication tool. In addition, a third diamond is positioned in the cutting tool assembly between the first and second diamonds to create a land feature in the microreplication tool between the first and second grooves. The invention can improve land feature creation by using a third diamond tip, rather than leaving the land features untooled and defined by the original untooled surface of micro-replication tool.
