Abstract: A fleet management system implements a rewards-based feedback system to receive feedback from users of a rideshare service that provides rides using autonomous vehicles (AVs). The fleet management system maintains user accounts associated with each user and provides reward points to each user account. When the user is riding in an AV, the user can access a user interface to select a portion of the reward points and reward them to the AV. The fleet management system may analyze the point rewards to identify individual user preferences, to identify preferences across users, or to identify AVs for maintenance or other types of modification.

Abstract: Guided exploration of data is provided. A semantic graph corresponding to a dataset is generated using identified relations among columns of the dataset that are identified based on mapping the columns to main concepts in a generic ontology. A subgraph of the semantic graph is formed based on identification of nodes corresponding to relevant central concepts within the semantic graph using graph centrality metrics. A plurality of paths is identified in the subgraph using a bi-directional multiple hop search from the nodes corresponding to the relevant central concepts in the subgraph. A relevance score is assigned to each path in the plurality of paths using a graph-theoretic metric and the graph centrality metrics. A set of natural language questions based on relevant central concepts and concept relations corresponding to nodes in each respective path with an assigned relevance score greater than a minimum threshold score is output to the user.
