Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable optimizing resource allocation to a bid request response based on a cognitive analysis of natural language artifacts. More specifically, a bid request and a plurality of supporting artifacts in a natural language are obtained. A cognitive analysis of the request and supporting artifacts is performed to extract a set of information entities. The extracted information entities are normalized using a lexical-relations based graph database to classify the set of extracted information entities as standardized concepts. A subset of the set of the standardized concepts is identified as a set of parameters corresponding to a set of predetermined variables. Each variable of the set of predetermined variables is weighted according to a likelihood that the variable indicates a relevance of a resource. A probability that a particular resource is relevant is determined based on the weighting and that resource is assigned to the bid request response.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention provide an approach for controlling an operation of a video capture device (e.g., in a cognitive robotic device). In an embodiment, a set of conditions is obtained using a cognitive computer system. Each of the obtained conditions includes a specific individual and a potential action that may be performed by the individual. The cognitive computer system analyzes video being captured by the video capture device to determine whether the video satisfies any of the set of conditions (e.g., the individual in the video is performing the action). If the cognitive computer system determines that one of the set of conditions has been satisfied, the operation of the video capture device (e.g., capture rate of the video) is modified to account for the satisfied condition.

Abstract: An approach for securing sensitive information in communication data is provided. In an embodiment, communication data is received from an ongoing communication (e.g., phone conversation, exchange of text messages, etc.) between a user and at least one other person. Contextual input is derived based on the content of the communication data and historical data from one or more external sources. A sensitivity index score for each element (e.g., portion) of the communication data is derived based on an assessment of the contextual input. The elements of the communication data having a sensitivity index score greater than a predefined threshold value are deemed to be security sensitive and, therefore, are encoded prior to transmission to its intended recipient.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for restoring an interrupted automated assistance session. Session contexts including pertinent metadata are periodically saved for each session, including a session reentry point. When a user calls an automated response system, metadata is collected from the user and compared with metadata from saved session contexts. If the user is determined to be associated with a saved session context, the user is connected to a conversation starting at the session reentry point, thereby eliminating the need to repeat the entirety of previously provided information.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling unwanted phone calls. In response to a determination that a phone number of a current incoming call to a user is not a phone number in a contact list including phone numbers of the user's contacts and to a determination that the phone number of the current incoming call is a phone number in a phone list of a shared table, the shared table for the previous call duration is analyzed for the previous call duration and the previous sentiment of the user during a previous incoming phone call for the phone number of the current incoming call to the user. It is ascertained, from analyzing the shared table for the previous call duration, that the previous call duration is less than a predetermined call duration and the previous sentiment is a negative sentiment, and in response the current incoming call is rejected.

Abstract: An expert system incorporates multiple virtual-agent experts, each trained in a particular field or domain. When a user enters a block of input, an interactive front-end infers the semantic meaning of the input and creates a chat-table record that stores the inferred meaning and other characteristics of the input. A distributed virtual-assistant manager (DVAM) module uses that record to identify the domain of the input and, after retrieving cross-reference information stored in a virtual-assistant intent (VAI) table, selects a virtual-agent expert trained in the identified domain. If necessary, the DVAM directs the front-end to seamlessly switch the user to the newly selected expert. As the session continues, the system continues to dynamically switch the user to different experts as the session traverses different domains. The system may also consider the domain history of the entire session when selecting a domain.
