Patent number: 12651124Abstract: Techniques for updating a sentiment analysis model in response to feedback for operations that are executed based on an output of the sentiment analysis model are disclosed. The sentiment analysis model analyzes a chat conversation to determine user sentiment. The system executes an operation based on the user sentiment determined by the sentiment analysis model. The operation may be the transfer of the chat conversation from a chatbot to a human agent or the generation of an outbound message by the chatbot. The system receives positive or negative feedback regarding the appropriateness and/or timeliness of the operation. The positive or negative feedback is attributed to the sentiment analysis model. The system generates training data using the feedback. The system then retrains the sentiment analysis model based on the training data.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2024Date of Patent: June 9, 2026Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventor: Michael Patrick Rodgers

Publication number: 20260093384Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for storing a snapshot of an interactive node graph. A data management system generates an interactive node graph having nodes that represent process states and edges representing connections between process states. The data management system uses a first live metric for determining aggregated node values and a second live metric to use for determining aggregated edge values. Based at least in part on a selection of an option to save the interactive node graph, the data management system stores a snapshot. The snapshot includes the aggregated node values based on the first live metric as of a particular time, the aggregated edge values based on the second live metric as of the particular time, a first mapping between the first live metric and the nodes, and a second mapping between the second live metric and the edges.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2024Publication date: April 2, 2026Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Haiyan Wang, Qiu Zhong, Michael Patrick Rodgers

Publication number: 20250291567Abstract: A system manager is disclosed for automatically deploying software based on user activity. The system manager receives user-specified parameters to control whether, when, and/or how automatic deployment is performed for software components, without specifying which software components are to be automatically deployed for the user. The system manager stores software component metadata identifying software components that are available for deployment. The system manager analyzes user activity to determine autodeployment utility scores that predict degrees of utility for different software components. Based on determining that an autodeployment utility score for a candidate software component satisfies one or more conditions that are based on the user-specified parameters, the system manager automatically performs deployment operation(s) for the candidate software component in a computing environment of a user.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2024Publication date: September 18, 2025Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Satish Chandra Oruganti, Ganesh Kumar Gupta, Michael Patrick Rodgers

Publication number: 20250158942Abstract: Techniques for triggering a transfer of a chat conversation with a user from a chatbot to a human agent based on detection of transfer criteria are disclosed. The chatbot uses natural language processing and a generative model to collect and organize information from the chat conversation to present to the human agent in a report when the chat conversation is transferred to the human agent. The chat conversation is transferred to the human agent by presenting the report and a graphical chat interface to the human agent. The graphical chat interface displays messages from chat conversation between the human agent and the user and displays messages from chat conversations between the human agent and multiple other users. Transferring the chat conversation from the chatbot to the human agent includes presenting interface elements to the human agent for receiving user input from the human agent for transmission to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 15, 2025Publication date: May 15, 2025Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Michael Patrick Rodgers, Eric L.

Patent number: 12197843Abstract: Layouts for elements of a flowchart or flow diagram may use recursive algorithms that trace along each parent-child pathway to ensure that child elements always occur after parent elements in a horizontal spacing. Vertical spacing requirements may then be calculated for each element, along with a vertical space above a center line and a vertical space below a center line for each element. These vertical spacing requirements may then be used by a recursive algorithm to assign vertical positions to each of the elements. The vertical spacing may ensure that lanes created for each branch element are not crossed by later elements in the process flow, which ensures that connections between elements may be clearly distinguished from each other.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2021Date of Patent: January 14, 2025Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventor: Michael Patrick Rodgers
