Abstract: Temporal and spatially integrated forecast modeling includes generating a plurality of forecast models for a plurality of short-term to long-term time periods for a plurality of locations. Temporally integrating the plurality of forecast models sequentially over the plurality of time periods for the plurality of locations and spatially integrating the temporally integrated plurality of forecast models for each location hierarchically over the geographic areas. The forecast models are autoregressive distributed lag models with different explanatory variables for the short-term and long-term forecast models. The temporally integrating includes recursively integrating the plurality of forecast models over the time periods from the short-term to the long-term time periods and the spatially integrating includes recursively integrating the temporally integrated plurality of forecast models hierarchically from larger size geographic areas to smaller size geographic areas.

Abstract: A concept associated with a feature used in machine learning model can be determined, the feature extracted from a first data source. A second data source containing the concept can be identified. An additional feature can be generated by performing a natural language processing on the second data source. The feature and the additional feature can be merged. A second machine learning model can be generated, which use the merged feature. A prediction result of the first machine learning model can be compared with a prediction result of the second machine learning model relative to ground truth data, to evaluate effective of the merged feature. Based on the evaluated effectiveness, the feature can be augmented with the merged feature in machine learning.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for identifying customers having associated opportunities for improved growth and/or profitability with respect to product or service offerings and determining investment solutions that enhance the probability that the customers transition to the higher growth/profitability opportunities. Prior customer transactions are segmented based on segmentation criteria and used to generate a transaction graph. The nodes of the transaction graph represent the segmented transactions and client transaction paths between the nodes represent potential customer life-cycle trajectories. The transaction graph can be used to identify high-value penetration opportunities.

Abstract: A machine learning algorithm is trained to learn to cluster a plurality of original-destination routes in a network for transporting cargo into a plurality of clusters based on similarities of the original-destination routes, and to learn to cluster the plurality of clusters into a plurality of subgroups based on customer behavior. Influencing criteria associated with each of the subgroups may be determined and based on the influencing criteria, a price elasticity curve for each of the subgroups may be generated. Based on the price elasticity curve and current network traffic, cargo transportation price associated with each of the subgroups may be determined.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for identifying product configurations that are alternatives to a requested product configuration, ranking the alternative product configurations based on one or more pricing metrics, and presenting the alternative product configurations to a prospective customer, thereby providing the customer with the option of selecting an alternative product configuration in lieu of the initially requested product configuration.

Abstract: A noise detection method and a noise detection system are provided. The noise detection method includes: obtaining an audio signal; comparing the audio signal with a wave of a noise model to obtain a correlation value; and identifying whether the audio signal is a candidate noise signal based on the correlation value. The method can detect plugging noises effectively.

Abstract: System and method that improves cargo logistics may be presented. For instance, shipping capacity in cargo logistics may be best utilized based on providing pricing and scheduling solutions that are jointly optimized and prices differentiated based on flexibility of service request. Scheduled service and pricing may be transmitted as a signal to control execution of the cargo logistics.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for jointly optimizing one or more parameters associated with multiple different price mechanisms. The price mechanisms may include spot market pricing, fixed-contract pricing, formula-based pricing, or the like, and may vary in duration. The optimized parameters may include an optimized price for each price mechanism that maximizes expected seller profit across all price mechanisms and all buyers.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for optimizing terms of a long-term contract between a buyer and a seller for a product. Various types of forecasting models may be generated and used to determine the optimized terms such as an optimized price for the long-term contract. A risk model may be generated and evaluated to identify market disruptions that indicate that the optimized price should be re-negotiated to distribute the associated risk between the buyer and seller. An example of such a market disruption may be a market price fluctuation that causes a difference between a spot market price for the product and a contract price to meet or exceed a threshold value.

Abstract: A top-down and bottom-up approach that decomposes product bundles to components, classifies them into different groups corresponding to a component similarity measure, and detects their inherent values. The bundles are reassembled and characterized by several key attributes according to their component inherent values, and classified into segments. A normalized utility model is constructed for each product bundle segment, taking into account the additive effect among different commodity types and product families. The goodness of fit of the top-down and the bottom-up model may be validated. The model may be applied in an RFQ pricing environment.
