  • Publication number: 20240104092
    Abstract: The use of natural language to query a database (e.g., storing performance data for an industrial system) is hindered by the use of non-semantic names for database elements in databases. While these non-semantic names could be modified, this requires modifying the databases, as well as modifying the applications that utilize the databases. Accordingly, embodiments disclosed herein train and apply a text-to-SQL model that translates natural-language queries into Structured Query Language (SQL) queries that utilize semantic names for database elements. These SQL queries utilize database views that map the native names for database elements to their semantic names. In addition, domain-specific pre-processing may be performed on the inputs to the text-to-SQL model. Collectively, this improves the accuracy of the text-to-SQL translation, without having to modify the databases or applications, while also enabling voice-based natural-language queries.

  • Patent number: 11922122
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for detecting emerging events. In various examples, a method for detecting emerging events includes obtaining communication data associated with communication between multiple sources, segmenting communication data into multiple segments, determining whether a data segment belongs to a familiar topic or none, and generating a notification when a familiar topic is mentioned for more or less than a mention prediction. Additionally, or alternatively, a notification may be generated when an unfamiliar topic emerges from a set of unfamiliar data segments if an associated segment count exceeds a critical mass threshold. To determine whether a data segment belongs to a familiar topic, the data segment may be transformed into a feature vector and mapped onto a feature space, where a distance-based similarity score may be determined.

  • Publication number: 20230215458
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating quality scores associated with a contact (e.g., a telephonic call including an agent) and with agents. In particular, the disclosed technology determines types of frames of content of the contact into a speech and/or a noise, the noise further classified into a standard noise and a non-standard noise. A frame type determiner determines a type of a frame based on a waveform analysis and/or use of speech and noise models that are trained through machine learning. The standard noise includes noise that is expected and consistent across contacts and agents (e.g., a hold music). The non-standard noise includes a noise that is unexpected in occasion and audio sources (e.g., a barking dog, a siren from street, and the like). The disclosed technology enables assessing contacts and agents based on issues associated with remote working environment that vary among agents.
