  • Publication number: 20250086563
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media that support intelligent re-use of knowledge (e.g., across an organization) using a natural text-based querying framework. A knowledge representation of prior work performed for the organization may be generated based on organizational knowledge (e.g., historical work record data that identifies a plurality of work items across an organization). The knowledge representation may include individual work-record entities for each respective work item and individual knowledge graphs corresponding to the individual work-record entities. For each individual knowledge graph, operations may be performed to identity and store project name, subgraph, sentence embedding, and word embedding information.

  • Publication number: 20240394571
    Abstract: An artificial intelligence (AI) technique to process and query data pertaining to an enterprise. A user raises a request which is processed to predict a knowledge context area based on a predetermined structure of the enterprise. The knowledge context area is predicted from multiple knowledge context areas, on the basis of the received user request and a conversation history of the user in past. Further, a knowledge database is selected from multiple knowledge databases based on the user request and the predicted knowledge context. The knowledge databases include preprocessed data from multiple data sources. The knowledge database is queried on the basis of the user request related to the knowledge context to obtain a result and the result is then displayed as an output.

  • Publication number: 20230186224
    Abstract: The disclosed system and method focus on applying machine learning to monitor, analyze, and optimize operational procedures. A role-tailored user interaction with a dashboard that enables a user with multiplicity of views, including but not limited to operational data feeds, analytic and visualization feeds, supervisory, policy making, personnel management and other organizational capabilities is disclosed. The multiplicity of dashboard features relates to measurement and assessment of an organization's compliance with operational performance metrics, that are quantified based on real-time, near real-time data feeds, statistical and algorithmic models. The metrics on the dashboard may be presented in the role-tailored fashion with statistical view of the next best action and recommendations when analyzed metrics exceed safe limits. Alert and communication features may be implemented in the dashboard to promote timely response to suggested corrective actions across the organization.

    Abstract: A system implements a method of migrating users to target services including segmenting the users of the target services into macrosegments and micro segments within each macro segment. For each micro segment, rankings of the target services for the users in the micro segment are determined. The rankings are based on the combinations of the target services owned by the users in the micro segment product association, a sequence for acquiring the target services owned by the users in the micro segment, propensities to acquire the target services, and eligibility of the target services for the users in the micro segment. The target services are selected for migration based on the rankings.
