  • Patent number: 8990126
    Abstract: A method, system and computer readable medium that generates a dialog model for use in automated dialog is disclosed. The method may include collecting a plurality of task-oriented dialog interactions between users and human agents for a given domain, identifying one or more task in each dialog interaction, identifying one or more subtasks in each identified task and associating relations between the subtasks, identifying a dialog act and a set of predicate-argument relations for each subtask, generating one or more clauses from the set of predicate-argument relations, storing the tasks, subtasks, dialog acts predicate-argument relations, and clauses from each dialog interaction as a dialog interaction set, generating a dialog management model using the stored dialog interaction sets.

  • Patent number: 7937301
    Abstract: A method, processing device, and machine-readable medium are provided. Costs of states of a state space are calculated. Each state represent one or more available product attributes having zero or more decided attribute values. The calculating is based, at least in part, on training data associated with previously requested and offered products. Determining a next state such that one or more products are available and a sum of values, including a cost of a next state and a cost of a perturbation of one of the one or more requested product attribute values to reach the next state is a minimum value. A value for a product attribute is mapped according to the minimum sum of values and product attribute values of available products.
