Machine-learning models and behavior can be visualized. For example, a machine-learning model can be taught using a teaching dataset. A test input can then be provided to the machine-learning model to determine a baseline confidence-score of the machine-learning model. Next, weights for elements in the teaching dataset can be determined. An analysis dataset can be generated that includes a subset of the elements that have corresponding weights above a predefined threshold. For each overlapping element in both the analysis dataset and the test input, (i) a modified version of the test input can be generated that excludes the overlapping element, and (ii) the modified version of the test input can be provided to the machine-learning model to determine an effect of the overlapping element on the baseline confidence-score. A graphical user interface can be generated that visually depicts the test input and various elements' effects on the baseline confidence-score.

Electronic communications can be normalized using feature sets. For example, an electronic representation of a noncanonical communication can be received, and multiple candidate canonical versions of the noncanonical communication can be determined. A first feature set representative of the noncanonical communication can be determined by splitting the noncanonical communication into at least one n-gram and at least one k-skip-n-gram. Multiple comparison feature sets can be determined by splitting multiple terms in training data into respective comparison feature sets. Multiple Jaccard index values can be determined using the first feature set and the multiple comparison feature sets. A subset of the multiple terms in the training data in which an associated Jaccard index value exceeds a threshold can be selected. The subset of the multiple terms can be included in the multiple candidate canonical versions. A normalized version of the noncanonical communication can be selected from the multiple candidate canonical versions.
