  • Publication number: 20220335090
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for identifying equivalent technical terms. A deep learning model is trained to identify equivalent technical terms. The deep learning model is then applied to a new document. The sentences of the document are analyzed to identify technical terms. Text is then analyzed surrounding the technical term identified in the document to determine the meaning of such text. A glossary list is then reviewed to determine if the identified meaning of the analyzed text matches a meaning/concept in the glossary list linked to a technical term. In response to determining that the meaning of the analyzed text matches a meaning/concept in the glossary list linked to an equivalent technical term, the technical term in the document is annotated with the equivalent technical term. In this manner, non-standard equivalent technical terms in different documents with the same meaning/concept are able to be identified.

  • Patent number: 11449927
    Abstract: Device and method for implementing a vehicle sharing reward program. The present invention provides for a cost-sharing plan where two or more constituencies share the rental cost associated with a user who rents a shared vehicle in a vehicle sharing program. This results in a reimbursement of the rental cost to the user. When enrolling in the vehicle sharing reward program, the user is given a health prescription to adhere to on any trip taken while using a shared vehicle. On a selected travel route, the user visits a vehicle sharing station, where the sharing station includes a kiosk that the user uses to check-in and upload relevant information such as distance traveled and locations visited. By complying with the health prescription issued to the user, the user can have its total rental cost reimbursed.

  • Publication number: 20220101148
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present invention are directed towards techniques for building and using machine learning enhanced trees for automated solution determination in a technical support context. Historical technical support records with associated problems, actions and results are received and clustered. A solution determination tree is constructed from the clustered actions, and a machine learning model is trained to predict which action will lead to a solution based on an accumulated data set including a problem and subsequent results from previous actions. Using the solution determination tree and the machine learning model, classes of actions are recommended based on accumulated data for an incoming support request/problem or a result resulting from a executing a previously recommended action.
