Abstract: A system and method for real-time alteration of media content based on stress monitoring is disclosed. A computer system present a single media content item in two distinct content streams to a first and second user. Using sensor generated data the computer system measures at least one user response indicator for the first and second user and estimates a stress level for the first and second users. The computer system determines whether the estimated stress level for the first user exceeds a first predetermined stress threshold. In accordance with a determination that the estimated stress level for the first user exceeds a first predetermined stress threshold the computer system alters the first stream of the presented media content item to modify the particular portion of the media content item associated with the estimated stress level for the first user.

Abstract: This application relates to apparatus and methods for identifying anomalies within a time series. In some examples, a computing device receives sales data identifying a sale of at least one item, and aggregates the received data in a database. The computing device may generate a plurality of time series based on the aggregated sales data. The computing device may extract features from the plurality of time series, and generate an alerting algorithm that is based on clusters of the extracted features. The computing device may apply the alerting algorithm to a time series generated from received sales data to determine whether the time series is an anomaly. Based on the determination, the computing device may generate and transmit anomaly data identifying whether the time series is an anomaly, such as to another computing device.

Abstract: This application relates to apparatus and methods for identifying fraudulent transactions. A computing device receives return data identifying the return of at least one item. The computing device obtains modified strategy data identifying at least one rule of a modified strategy. The rule may be based on the application of at least one discrete stochastic gradient descent algorithm to an initial strategy. The computing device applies the modified strategy to the received return data identifying the return of the at least one item, and determines whether the return of the at least one item is fraudulent based on the application of the modified strategy. The computing device generates fraud data identifying whether the return of the at least one item is fraudulent based on the determination, and may transmit the fraud data to another computing device to indicate whether the return is fraudulent.

Abstract: An Artificial Intelligence (AI) based resource identification system enables identifying available resources in response to receiving a request for resources. The request attributes are mapped to the attributes of the resources in a resource pool. Matching index scores are calculated and resources that match the request can be selected based on the matching index scores. If no resources are available suitable alternate resources with lower matching index scores are suggested so that a user has the choice to filter this alternate resources based on a threshold score. Particular suggestions to change one or more of the request attributes can be provided based on analysis of the mapping of the request and the resource attributes which enables the resource identification system to suggest changes to one or more of the skill attributes, level attributes, time attributes or location attributes of the request.

Abstract: A device may receive a query from a user device, and may process the query using a machine learning model to determine categories related to the query. The device may send a message, instructing a user to select a category, to the user device to cause the user device to display the message. The device may receive, from the user device, a selection related to the categories, and may call, based on the selection, a module to cause the module to process the query. The device may receive from the module a response to the query, and may send the response to the user device, to cause the user device to display the response. The device may send the query, the selection, and the response to one or more servers for storage, and may retrain the machine learning model based on information stored by the one or more servers.
