  • Patent number: 11853339
    Abstract: Disclosed are examples of a system, techniques and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that enable the selection of a response document template for generating an appropriate response to notification document. Respective components may generate an electronic document from the notification document. A common theme between two or more of the electronic documents may be identified. The electronic documents identified as having the common theme may be grouped in a notification document corpus. The notification document corpus may be analyzed with reference to received notification documents stored in a document repository. Based on results of the analysis, a template of a notification response document appropriate for responding to a specific notification document received by the enterprise may be selected. The selected response document template may be forwarded to a client device for further processing.

  • Publication number: 20230377337
    Abstract: A computing system retrieves ball-by-ball data for a plurality of sporting events. The computing system generates a trained neural network based on ball-by-ball data supplemented with ball-by-ball data with ball-by-ball match context features and personalized embeddings based on a batsman and a bowler for each delivery. The computing system receives a target batsman and a target bowler for a pitch to be delivered in a target event. The computing system identifies target ball-by-ball data for a window of pitches preceding the to be delivered pitch. The computing system retrieves historical ball-by-ball data for each of the target batsman and the target bowler. The computing system generates personalized embeddings for both the target batsman and the target bowler based on the historical ball-by-ball data. The computing system predicts a shot type for the pitch to be delivered based on the target ball-by-ball data and the personalized embeddings.
