  • Publication number: 20250086402
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, devices, and computer program products are described. A flow generation service may receive a natural language input that indicates instructions for automating a task according to a first process flow. Using a large language model (LLM), the flow generation service may decompose the natural language input into a set of elements (e.g., logical actions) and connectors, where the LLM may be trained on first metadata corresponding to a second process flow that is created manually by a user. In addition, using the LLM, the flow generation service may generate second metadata corresponding to each of the set of elements based on decomposing the natural language input. The flow generation service may sequence and merge the set of elements to generate the first process flow. In some examples, the flow generation service may send, for display to a user interface of a user device, the first process flow.

  • Patent number: 11669699
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a composed variational natural language generation (CLANG) model that is configured to generate training samples for few-shot intents. Specifically, the CLANG model may build connections between existing training samples of many-shot intents and new training samples of few-shot intents by modeling an intent as a combination of a domain and an action. In this way, the CLANG model transfers knowledge from existing many-shot intents to few-shot intents in natural language generation by learning how to compose utterances with many-shot intents and transferring such knowledge to few-shot intents.
