Abstract: Systems and methods for receiving various input data, processing said input data, and utilizing artificial emotional intelligence to analyze said input data to return calculated response stimuli are provided. Various electronic devices may be utilized to acquire input data related to a specific user, a group of users, or environments. This input data, which may comprise tone of voice, facial expressions, social media profiles, and surrounding environmental data, may be compared with past data related to a certain user, group of users, or environment. The systems and methods herein may employ artificial emotional intelligence to evaluate the aggregated data and provide a response stimulus to a user or group of users. The response stimulus may be in the form of uplifting/encouraging music, quotes, pictures, jokes, suggestions, etc. The purpose of providing the response stimuli is to significantly increase the productivity of meetings, conversations, and other interactions across electronic devices.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides method and apparatus for providing a response to a user in a session. At least one message associated with a first object may be received in the session, the session being between the user and an electronic conversational agent. An image representation of the first object may be obtained. Emotion information of the first object may be determined based at least on the image representation. A response may be generated based at least on the at least one message and the emotion information. The response may be provided to the user.

Abstract: A date extractor disclosed herein allows extracting dates and date ranges from documents. An implementation of the date extractor is implemented using various computer process instructions including scanning a document to generate a plurality of tokens, assigning labels to token using named entity recognition machine to generate a named entity vector, extracting dates from the named entity vector by comparing each of the named entities of the named entity vector to predetermined patterns of dates to generate a date vector, generating a plurality of date pairs from the date vector, and extracting date-ranges by comparing the plurality of date pairs to predetermined patterns of date ranges.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for conversationally-relevant content requests. In one implementation, a first communication is processed to identify a first content element within the communication. The first content element is stored within a first content repository. A content request is generated based on the first content repository. The content request is provided to the user. A second communication is received from the user in response to the content request. An action is initiated based on the second communication.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for response retrieval using communication session vectors. In one implementation, a first communication session is received. The first communication session includes a first communication. The first communication session is encoded as a first vector. A second vector is identified within a defined proximity of the first vector. The second vector represents a second communication session that includes a second communication. The second communication is provided within the first communication session in response to the first communication.

Abstract: Systems and methods may be used to process and output information related to a non-speech vocalization, for example from a user attempting to mimic a non-speech sound. A method may include determine a mimic quality value associated with an audio file by comparing a non-speech vocalization to a prerecorded audio file. For example, the method may include determining an edit distance between the non-speech vocalization and the prerecorded audio file. The method may include assigning a mimic quality value to the audio file based on the edit distance. The method may include outputting the mimic quality value.
