Publication number: 20240012841Abstract: An exemplary system and method are provided for monitoring concept drift in a trained model, such as a chatbot. The system is configured to perform a method including receiving a first dataset representing model operations executed by the trained model; applying a data processing operation to the first dataset to determine a first result data of the first dataset; determining, based on the first result data, a difference between the first result data and a second result data; determining, based on the difference, whether concept drift has occurred; and in accordance with a determination that concept drift has occurred, transmitting an instruction to update training of the trained model. The exemplary system may be implemented as a drift detection system in communication with the trained model.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Applicant: PwC Product Sales LLCInventors: Joseph David VOYLES, Siddhesh Shivaji ZANJ, Prasang GUPTA, Vishakha BANSAL, Shantanu DEV

Patent number: 11822773Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and utilizing an interactive causal loop diagram using a causal loop designer are provided. In one or more examples, a computer-implemented method for creating a causal loop diagram comprising visually emphasized elements can comprise displaying a first element and a second element, wherein the first element and the second element comprise visually emphasizable elements. In response to receiving a user command to connect the first element to the second element, the method can comprise displaying a connection between the first element and the second element, wherein the connection comprises a visually emphasizable element. In one or more examples, the method comprises displaying a causal loop diagram comprising the first element, the second element, and the connection. In response to a user activating a visual emphasis tool, the method can comprise visually emphasizing one or more of the visually emphasizable elements.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2022Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: PwC Product Sales LLCInventors: Timothy Marco, Joseph David Voyles, Lyle Wallis, Mark Paich, Sindy Ma

Publication number: 20230367765Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to storing computer models, and more specifically to a platform for achieving replicability of a computer model (e.g., a trained machine-learning algorithm) by storing and providing access to data associated with the computer model using an immutable and decentralized ledger system (e.g., a blockchain ledger) and a distributed database. An exemplary computer-enabled method for storing a computer model, the method comprises: receiving data associated with the computer model; generating one or more asset files based on the data associated with the computer model; generating one or more hash values corresponding to the one or more asset files; generating one or more of location trackers corresponding to the one or more asset files; generating a ledger entry comprising the one or more hash values and the one or more location trackers; and adding the ledger entry to a blockchain ledger.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Applicant: PricewaterhouseCoopers LLPInventors: Ilana Alexandra GOLBIN, Joseph David VOYLES, Kris Douglas KERSEY, Thomas Joseph FOTH
