  • Publication number: 20240127957
    Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein relate to inferring a type of multiple sclerosis and determining whether to output an alert based on codes detected within noisy assessment data corresponding to a subject. The noisy assessment data includes content originating from a care provider that identifies a characteristic of the subject or of a treatment for the subject, and the subject has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. A temporal dynamic or distribution is determined based on instances of the code detection, and a modulation is determined based on the temporal dynamic or the distribution. It is determined whether an alert criterion is satisfied based on whether the modulation is above a threshold so as to represent noise or a predicted transition across types of multiple sclerosis. The inferred type of multiple sclerosis is output. When the alert criterion is satisfied, an alert is output as well.

  • Publication number: 20240095680
    Abstract: A method of implementing administrative services for a compensation platform is disclosed. One or more interactive compensation representation views are generated based on an evaluation of mapping rules against a flexible ontology and current data state, the flexible ontology comprising customizable compensation components, relationships, and properties. One or more compensation representation views are dynamically updated in real-time in response to changes in compensation data, user context, or access permissions without requiring manual regeneration of the one or more compensation representations. The one or more interactive compensation representation views include a user interface element displayed in response to a user selection of compensation data, wherein the user interface element provides direct access to compensation information relevant to the selected compensation data without requiring a change to another screen or another user context.

  • Publication number: 20240095645
    Abstract: A method of generating customizable goal representation is disclosed. A request from a user to view a goal representation is received. A flexible goal ontology is accessed that comprises one or more goal entities, one or more goal relationships between the goal entities, or one or more goal properties, the one or more goal properties including one or more metadata attributes relating to the one or more goal entities. A set of mapping rules is obtained that defines mappings between one or more goals. The set of mapping rules is evaluated to assemble a customized goal representation tailored to the user. The customized goal representation is updated based on a revaluation of the mapping rules affected by changes to the one or more goal entities, the one or more goal relationships, or the one or more properties.

  • Patent number: 10878517
    Abstract: An analytics interface is provided for a content creation tool. Based on input to the analytics interface, first and second media content items are selected, where certain content is shared between the media content items. The system modifies first and second media content items to comply with formatting constraints of first and second social media services, respectively. The system associates, via a mapping, the first and second media content items with a group and publishes the first and second media content items to the first and second social media services, respectively. The system uses the mapping to match the group with first and second analytics respectively received from the first and second social media services about the first and second media content items. The system updates the analytics interface with visual representations of grouped analytics, which are generated based on matching the group with the first second analytics.
