    摘要: Techniques are provided for generating improved language modeling. Such improved modeling is achieved by conditioning a language model on a state of a dialog for which the language model is employed. For example, the techniques of the invention may improve modeling of language for use in a speech recognizer of an automatic natural language based dialog system. Improved usability of the dialog system arises from better recognition of a user's utterances by a speech recognizer, associated with the dialog system, using the dialog state-conditioned language models. By way of example, the state of the dialog may be quantified as: (i) the internal state of the natural language understanding part of the dialog system; or (ii) words in the prompt that the dialog system played to the user.

    摘要: A Customer Relationship Management (CRM) offer template is established in data storage and includes at least one variable field and having at least one offer attribute. For each of a plurality of customer groups, a data processing system calculates an expected benefit to be obtained by sending an instantiated CRM offer to a customer based upon historical responses, offer cost, and legal values of the at least one variable field. The data processing system outputs a CRM offer instance and target list of customers that maximizes the expected benefit.

    摘要: A system for discovering business processes from noisy activities logs from various activities performed during the execution of the process. Activities are observed from the noisy activity logs that may include text from manually entered activity logs, chat scripts, emails, voice transcripts, desktop captures, and tool logs, wherein the noisy activity logs are received from multiple person/tool actors with each of the actors performing one or more activities related to one/more business tasks. Extracting information from the noisy activity logs to capture activity based information, and then analyzing similar activities and finding possible paths in the similar activities. The results are used to build a process graph based on the similar activities and the possible paths in the similar activities.

    摘要: A method for managing user-generated questions and answers across multiple social media data sources can begin with the receiving of query parameters, including a user-entered question, via the user interface of a social media Q&A manage. Social media data sources can be queried for knowledge related to the user-entered question. When knowledge related to the user-entered question exists, the existing related knowledge can be organized and presented in the user interface according to a determined answer quality. When knowledge related to the user-entered question does not exist or is deemed unsatisfactory by a user, the user-entered question can be automatically submitted to applicable social media data sources by the social media Q&A manager on behalf of the user. A status of the submitted user-entered question can be monitored. When the status of the submitted user-entered question changes, the method can be re-executed at the querying step.

    摘要: Methods and arrangements for providing interactive query suggestions. A partial user query phrase is received, the partial query phrase comprising a final word element. A vocabulary is accessed and, from the vocabulary, at least one possible completion of the final word element is ascertained. A phrase index is accessed and, from the phrase index, at least two phrases corresponding to completions of the partial user query phrase with the at least one possible completion of the final word element are ascertained. A probability score is assigned to each of the at least two phrases, and the at least two phrases are ranked based on probability.
