Patent number: 11727305Abstract: The present disclosure is for systems and methods for connecting offline machine learning training systems with online near-real time machine learning scoring systems. It is not trivial to connect an offline training environment with an online scoring environment. For example, offline training environments are usually static and contain large amounts of historical data that is needed for the initial training of models. Once trained, the model algorithms are then migrated into an online scoring environment for transactional or event based scoring. This migration effectively breaks the connection between the data in the offline environment and the model now running in the online environment. When new or shifting data occurs in the online environment, the static model running in the online environment goes unaltered to the changing inputs. The present disclosure solves the issues that are caused by the break in the offline and online environments.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Inventors: Edward Alexander Fly, Trent McDaniel

Patent number: 11715070Abstract: Workers often forget to enter clockings indicating when they have arrived or left work or transferred between work activities. Various embodiments provide a system that predicts the risk of potential missed worker clockings and delivers alerts to the workers and/or their managers when that risk is high. The system analyzes historical data to find previous instances of missed clockings at an organization, extracts feature information regarding the context of the missed clockings, and calibrates a missing clocking risk model. The model is then used in either an online or batch mode to predict the risk of workers missing upcoming scheduled clockings. Based on these risk scores and system configurations, alerts are generated for employees and managers reminding them about the upcoming clockings and lowering the amount of missed clockings and subsequent remedies.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2019Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: Kronos Technology Systems Limited PartnershipInventors: Michael A.
