  • Publication number: 20250149028
    Abstract: Techniques for facilitating natural language interactions with visual interactive content are described. During a build time, a system analyzes various websites and applications relating to a particular user goal to understand website and application navigation and information relating to the user goal. The learned information is used to store configuration data. During runtime, when a user request performance of an action, the system engages in a dialog with the user to complete the user's goal. The system uses the stored configuration data to determine actions to be performed at a website or application to complete the user's goal, and determines system responses to present to the user to facilitate completion of the goal. Such system responses may request information from the user, may inform the user of information displayed at the website or application, etc.

  • Patent number: 11501159
    Abstract: A method for text sequence style transfer by two encoder-decoders, including generating, by a first encoder-decoder network model, an output sequence based on a first input sequence and an input sequence style, wherein the output sequence is associated with a second sequence, generating, by a second-encoder decoder network model, a prediction of the first input sequence based on the first input sequence, the output sequence, and a first input sequence style associated with the first input sequence, generating, by a classifier, a prediction of the first input sequence style based on the prediction of the first input sequence, and updating the neural network model based on comparisons between the output sequence and the second sequence, between the prediction of the first input sequence and the first input sequence, and between the prediction of the first input sequence style and the first input sequence style.

  • Publication number: 20170278038
    Abstract: Systems and methods associated with discussion resource recommendation are disclosed. One example method may be embodied as computer-executable instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium. The instructions may cause a computer to construct a resource network that links members of asset of online discussion resources. The online discussion resources may be linked based on user participation overlap between members of the set of discussion resources. The instructions may also cause the computer to generate content similarity scores that measure content overlap for pairs of discussion resources. The instructions may also cause the computer to generate network relevancy scores for the pairs of discussion resources based on the resource network. The instructions may also cause the computer to recommend, based on the content similarity scores and the network relevancy scores, a related discussion resource to a user when the user accesses a primary discussion resource.
