Present embodiment include a prosody subsystem of a natural language understanding (NLU) framework that is designed to analyze collections of written messages for various prosodic cues to break down the collection into a suitable level of granularity (e.g., into episodes, sessions, segments, utterances, and/or intent segments) for consumption by other components of the NLU framework, enabling operation of the NLU framework. These prosodic cues may include, for example, source prosodic cues that are based on the author and the conversation channel associated with each message, temporal prosodic cues that are based on a respective time associated with each message, and/or written prosodic cues that are based on the content of each message. For example, to improve the domain specificity of the agent automation system, intent segments extracted by the prosody subsystem may be consumed by a training process for a ML-based structure subsystem of the NLU framework.

A system and method for creating and accessing a bifurcated digital wallet is described. The method comprises of processor implemented steps of authenticating by an authentication server one or more authentication information sent by a user terminal to the authentication server; extracting a first set of information by the authentication server based on the authentication of the authentication information; extracting a second set of information by one or more second servers based on the authentication of the authentication information; collating the first set of information and second set of information and displaying the collated information at the user terminal for processing a transaction.

An agent automation system includes a memory configured to store a reasoning agent/behavior engine (RA/BE) including a first persona and a current context and a processor configured to execute instructions of the RA/BE to cause the first persona to perform actions comprising: receiving intents/entities of a first user utterance; recognizing a context overlay cue in the intents/entities of the first user utterance, wherein the context overlay cue defines a time period; updating the current context of the RA/BE by overlaying context information from at least one stored episode associated with the time period; and performing at least one action based on the intents/entities of the first user utterance and the current context of the RA/BE.

An agent automation system includes a memory configured to store a natural language understanding (NLU) framework and a model, wherein the model includes at least one original meaning representation. The system includes a processor configured to execute instructions of the NLU framework to cause the agent automation system to perform actions including: performing rule-based generalization of the model to generate at least one generalized meaning representation of the model from the at least one original meaning representation of the model; performing rule-based refinement of the model to prune or modify the at least one generalized meaning representation of the model, or the at least one original meaning representation of the model, or a combination thereof; and after performing the rule-based generalization and the rule-based refinement of the model, using the model to extract intents/entities from a received user utterance.

Templated rule-based data augmentation for intent extraction

An agent automation system implements a virtual agent that is capable of learning new words, or new meanings for known words, based on exchanges between the virtual agent and a user in order to customize the vocabulary of the virtual agent to the needs of the user or users. The agent automation framework has access to a corpus of previous exchanges between the virtual agent and the user, such as one or more chat logs. New words and/or new meanings for known words are identified within the corpus and new word vectors are generated for these new words and/or new meanings for known words and added to refine a word vector distribution model. The refined word vector distribution model is then utilized by the agent automation system to interact with the user.

Systems and method for vocabulary management in a natural learning framework

An agent automation system includes a memory configured to store a natural language understanding (NLU) framework and a processor configured to execute instructions of the NLU framework to cause the agent automation system to perform actions. These actions comprise: generating an annotated utterance tree of an utterance using a combination of rules-based and machine-learning (ML)-based components, wherein a structure of the annotated utterance tree represents a syntactic structure of the utterance, and wherein nodes of the annotated utterance tree include word vectors that represent semantic meanings of words of the utterance; and using the annotated utterance tree as a basis for intent/entity extraction of the utterance.

Hybrid learning system for natural language understanding

An agent automation system includes a memory configured to store a corpus of utterances and a semantic mining framework and a processor configured to execute instructions of the semantic mining framework to cause the agent automation system to perform actions, wherein the actions include: detecting intents within the corpus of utterances; producing intent vectors for the intents within the corpus; calculating distances between the intent vectors; generating meaning clusters of intent vectors based on the distances; detecting stable ranges of cluster radius values for the meaning clusters; and generating an intent/entity model from the meaning clusters and the stable ranges of cluster radius values, wherein the agent automation system is configured to use the intent/entity model to classify intents in received natural language requests.

Hybrid learning system for natural language intent extraction from a dialog utterance

An agent automation system includes a memory configured to store a natural language understanding (NLU) framework, and a processor configured to perform actions, including: generating a meaning representation from an annotated utterance tree of an utterance, wherein a structure of the meaning representation indicates a syntactic structure of the utterance and one or more subtree vectors of the meaning representation indicate a semantic meaning of one or more intent subtrees of the meaning representation; searching the meaning representation of the utterance against an understanding model to extract intents/entities of the utterance based on the one or more subtree vectors of the meaning representation, wherein the understanding model includes a plurality of meaning representations derived from the intent/entity model; and providing the intents/entities of the utterance to a reasoning agent/behavior engine (RA/BE) of the agent automation system that performs one or more actions in response to the intents/entities of the utterance.
