  • Publication number: 20260105124
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating synthetic data. A processor set transforms data in a dataset into a set of new data using a number of transformation techniques identified based on data types for the data. The processor set applies a noise function to the set of new data to generate the synthetic data. The processor set creates a first probability distribution based on the data and a second probability distribution based on the synthetic data. The processor set compares the first probability distribution and the second probability distribution to generate a similarity score. The processor set determines whether the similarity score is within a threshold, where the threshold comprises an upper boundary and a lower boundary. In response to determining that the similarity score is within the threshold, the processor set outputs the synthetic data.

  • Patent number: 12387161
    Abstract: An embodiment trains a machine-learning model using a first training corpus of general items indicative of varying levels of confidence. The embodiment also prepares a second training corpus that includes domain-specific items indicative of varying levels of confidence extracted from communications from members of a project group associated with a project. The embodiment retrains the machine-learning model using the second training corpus and generates a confidence score for the project based on confidence values assigned by the machine-learning model to each of a plurality of project-related communication items from members of the project group. The embodiment also detects that the confidence score is below a predetermined threshold confidence level and, in response, initiates a communication to members of the project group conveying information regarding an automated remedial action for the project.
