  • Publication number: 20220004715
    Abstract: Knowledge gaps in a chatbot are identified with reference to a domain-specific document and a set of QA pairs of the chatbot. Entities and/or entity values associated with the document are compared to the entities and/or entity values of the QA pairs. Entities of the document not associated with the QA pairs are identified as knowledge gaps. The QA pairs and knowledge gaps are ranked by relevance to the domain.

  • Publication number: 20210117407
    Abstract: A method for automatically detecting errors in at least one data entry in a database, the at least one data entry including an input string of characters that do not match at least one predefined string of characters. The method includes generating a first image map; generating at least one classification parameter by comparing the first image map to a second image map, the second image map based at least partially on the predefined string of characters; determining that the input string of characters correlates to the predefined string of characters; and modifying the at least one data entry to match the predefined string of characters in response to determining that the input string of characters correlates to the predefined string of characters. Various other methods and systems for automatically detecting errors in at least one data entry in a database are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 8379960
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for distinguishing biological materials. The method provides: providing at least one segmented image of at least two cells; applying a distance transform to the at least one segmented image of the confluent cells; applying a region growing technique to the distance transform of the at least one segmented image to form a region grown image, wherein a plurality of regions are formed in the at least one segmented image; assigning at least one label to at least one of the plurality of regions of the at least one segmented image of the confluent cells; applying a merging technique to at least two of the plurality of regions if it is determined that at least two of the plurality of regions are neighboring regions; determining whether to assign a same label to the neighboring regions or retain existing labels; and merging the neighboring regions of the region grown image if labels are changed to form at least one image of at least one cell.
