A method and system for predicting an intended time interval for a content segment may include receiving a request for natural language processing (NLP) of the content segment, the content segment including one or more temporal expressions, accessing contextual data associated with each of the one or more temporal expressions, decoding the content segment into a program that describes a temporal logic of the content segment based on the one or more temporal expressions, evaluating the program using the contextual data to predict an intended time interval for the content segment, and providing the intended time interval as an output.

Intelligent interpretation of temporal expressions

A system for automatically scaling provisioned resources includes an input interface and a processor. The input interface is configured to receive an estimate of a required number of processing threads. The processor is configured to determine required resources for processing the required number of processing threads using a model; provision the required resources; indicate to execute client tasks using the provisioned resources; determine server telemetry or logging data for the provisioned resources; provide the server telemetry or the logging data to the model; determine a resource utilization score based at least in part on the server telemetry or the logging data; determine a provisioning performance reward based at least in part on the resource utilization score; and adjust model parameters using the provisioning performance reward.
