Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product, include receiving a request for registration from a service provider, upon the service receiver having authorized the request for registration, registering characteristic information of the service call in a user device of a service receiver, and upon a lapse of time, deregistering the characteristic information from the user device.

Abstract: A data processing system identifies a first topic for a first table, identifies a second topic for a second table, collects at least one first table attribute comprising at least one row name for the first table, and collects at least one second table attribute comprising at least one row name for the second table. The at least one first table attribute and the at least one second table attribute are placed in at least one semantic category. The at least one first table attribute is converted into at least one semantic vector for the first table, and the at least one second table attribute is converted into at least one semantic vector for the second table. The at least one semantic vector for the first table is compared with the at least one semantic vector for the second table to identify as related at least one row of the first table and at least one row of the second table.

Abstract: In response to receiving a question, a corpus of textual data having content related to the question is obtained. At least one segment is extracted from the corpus of textual data. At least one question-answer pair is generated from at least one segment. Each question-answer pair comprises a candidate question and an answer corresponding to the candidate question.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for training, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, an attention weighted recurrent neural network encoder-decoder (AWRNNED) using an iterative process based on one or more paragraphs of agent sentences from respective transcripts of one or more conversations between one or more agents and one or more customers, and based on one or more customer response sentences from the respective transcripts, and generating, by the system, one or more groups respectively comprising one or more agent sentences and one or more customer response sentences selected based on attention weights of the AWRNNED.

Abstract: In an approach for determining an available parking space, a computer accesses a streaming video. The computer identifies a vehicle and a corresponding identification characteristic within the accessed streaming video. The computer retrieves historical data associated with the identified identification characteristic, wherein the historical data includes previous parking locations. The computer determines a preferred parking space within the retrieved historical data associated with the identified identification characteristic. The computer determines whether the identified preferred parking space is available based on a parking database.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a system are proposed. According to the method, in response to receiving a character, a first representation of the character is generated by performing word embedding processing on the character. The first representation is related to context of the character. A second representation of the character is generated by performing convolutional neural network (CNN) processing on the character. The second representation is related to a hieroglyphic feature of the character. A label for the character is determined by performing recurrent neural network (RNN) processing on the first representation and the second representation. The label indicates an attribute of the character related to the context.
