Publication number: 20250133981Abstract: A computer implemented method comprises obtaining a query, obtaining querying source context data, and processing the query to identify an interrogative type corresponding to the query based on language in the query. The method further comprises generating, based on the identified interrogative type, a prompt, the prompt identifying a task for an analytics engine, providing the prompt to the analytics engine, executing, with one or more models, analytics on one or more items of the querying source context data, based on the prompt. The method also includes determining one or more features of an output to be generated based on the identified interrogative type, the output responsive to the query, generating the output based on the executed analytics and the determined one or more features, and controlling a user associated system based on the output.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2024Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Ryan KIRK, Dylan J.

Publication number: 20250078586Abstract: During an initialization period of a machine learning model, an electronic data processor is configured to estimate an initial depletion estimate of time period until empty for a material in the tank or container of a machine based on summing initial weighted inputs to the machine learning model in accordance with an initial equation set being applicable to the initialization period that is defined by an initial sub-operation period. After the initialization period of the machine learning model, an electronic data processor is configured to estimate a revised depletion time, where the revised depletion time comprises a time duration until empty or near empty.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 14, 2024Publication date: March 6, 2025Inventors: Ryan Kirk, Mayur Deo, Palash Gupta
