    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for tracking of a conversation and management of multi-channel, multi-interaction customer conversations across multiple chat bots. One example system includes operations to receive a first signal comprising a first set of conversational input received via interactions with a conversational interface from a client device, the conversational interface associated with a plurality of chat bots and manages interactions between the client device and the plurality of chat bots. The received conversational input is analyzed to determine a context of the received conversational input based on characteristics of the received conversational input. A request is transmitted to an identified first chat bot associated with the determined context and a response is received from the identified first chat bot. The response is transmitted to the client device for presentation.

  • Publication number: 20210326627
    Abstract: In various examples, frames of a video may include a first visual object that may appear relative to a second visual object within a region of the frames. Once a relationship between the first visual object and the region is known, one or more operations may be performed on the relative region. For example, optical character recognition may be performed on the relative region where the relative region is known to contain textual information. As a result, the identification of the first visual object may serve as an anchor for determining the location of the relative region including the second visual object—thereby increasing accuracy and efficiency of the system while reducing run-time.
