  • Patent number: 12536166
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium having computer instructions stored therein that when executed by a computer system cause the computer system to perform operations including receiving a first user input defining a dialog session comprising one or more steps of a natural language conversation flow, receiving a second user input defining a positive outcome of the dialog session, receiving, via a chat interface, a natural language input, initiating the dialog session in response to an association between the natural language input and the dialog session, receiving, via the chat interface, a subsequent natural language input, and updating a data entry associated with the custom metric in an outcome log in response the subsequent natural language input being indicative of the positive outcome of the dialog session.

  • Patent number: 12111827
    Abstract: A method for reporting a success of a dialog session including generating an outcome data indicative of a positive outcome of the dialog session with at least one of the plurality of natural language responses, receiving a natural language query, converting the natural language query into a structured database query based on the metadata, performing the structured database query on a database, generating a result in response to a response data received in response to the structured database query, generating a natural language responses in response to the result and the plurality of natural language response data, sending, by the chatbot, the natural language response, generating a result metadata in response to a comparison of the result to the outcome data, and generating an outcome log in response to the result metadata wherein the outcome log includes an indication of the positive outcome of the dialog session.

  • Publication number: 20080062161
    Abstract: A method includes obtaining a measurement of a property of a light source, scanning light from the light source onto a surface, such that the light interacts with the surface, detecting light from the surface to create a picture element, and correcting the picture element with the measurement of the property. An apparatus includes a scanned beam display, the scanned beam display is configured to receive a signal and to scan the signal for viewing by a user. The signal is to contain picture element information. The picture element information includes information for a plurality of colors, wherein information for at least one color is corrected to substantially remove a perturbation to the picture element information, such that an image containing the picture element information will be substantially unchanged by the perturbation.
