  • Publication number: 20240273966
    Abstract: Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for providing multi-parameter offers to users are provided. Such GUIs not only efficiently present a particular multi-parameter offer, but also provide insight to the user as to other multi-parameter offers that could have been offered instead, thereby allowing the user to gauge the relative value of the offer being made against the potential other offers that could have been made. Such GUIs are arranged to present the information regarding the offer parameters in a space-efficient manner that allows for such information to be presented for large numbers of potential offers, e.g., 50+potential offers, in a small display area, e.g., a smartphone screen.

  • Publication number: 20240242815
    Abstract: A conversational agent is provided for maintaining or improving the wellbeing of a user presenting with diabetes and mental health needs by the delivery of a care protocol. The conversational agent comprises: a plurality of sub-dialogue units, each configured to deliver an element of the care protocol, and an orchestrator configured to present the sub-dialogue units to the user, sequentially, wherein each sub-dialogue unit and the orchestrator comprises: a natural language understanding module configured to receive an input and/or reply and determine at least one intent and, where present, at least one slot within the input and/or reply: a dialogue planning module configured to determine an output based, at least in part, on the at least one intent and/or slot associated within the input and/or reply, and a natural language generation module configured to provide the output to the user.
