  • Publication number: 20250110948
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for converting natural language queries to a query instruction set for searching a data warehouse. To generate a query instruction set from a natural language query, a system iteratively uses a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model and database query tools to generate a query instruction set in a stepwise manner. The system and generative AI model do not require a priori knowledge of data table contents in the data warehouse, which may include sensitive information. In addition, the system does not require access to the data warehouse to generate the query instruction set. Instead, the system is implemented to use structure information from the data warehouse, including table lists (such as table names) and table format information (such as column names) of tables in the data warehouse, and the generative AI model is a generally trained model to generate the query instruction set.

  • Patent number: 12182515
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for detecting sentences that are utterances by an agent indicating an intent to poach a customer. According to certain embodiments, a language model is trained using query sentences that are confirmed to be sentences used in poaching a customer, to identify semantically similar sentences in a corpus. These semantically similar sentences are then used as base sentences for comparison to sentences in a transcript. Sentences of the transcript that are found to be semantically similar to one or more base sentences are provided to a user device for review and confirmation that the similar sentence was generated by an agent in an attempt to poach a customer.

  • Patent number: 12147884
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for machine learning. In some implementations, a pre-processing system may identify one or more special features in an input dataset and may generate one or more pruned datasets, respectively, based on the identified special features. The pre-processing system maps each of the pruned datasets to one or more predictions and selectively removes the values associated with one or more special features from the input dataset based on the mapping. In some other implementations, a pre-processing system may map each of the feature sets in an input dataset to multiple predictions in accordance with multiple machine learning algorithms. The pre-processing system evaluates a performance of each of the mappings and selects one of the machine learning algorithms to be used to train the machine learning model based on the performance of each mapping.

  • Publication number: 20220414663
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating one or more comparative features for machine learning based classification are disclosed. A system may be configured to obtain time series data and forecast one or more predicted values based on the time series data. The system may also be configured, for each predicted value of the one or more predicted values, to compare an actual value of the time series data to the predicted value and generate a comparative value of a comparative feature based on the comparison. The comparative feature is to be provided to a machine learning model for a classification task associated with the time series data. The classification task may include determining whether one or more data values in the time series data is fraudulent based on the comparative feature.
