Methods, systems, and computer program products for designing conflict minimizing outreach strategies are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes obtaining data from a job matching service corresponding to jobs listed on the job matching service and candidates; generating job clusters for the jobs based on clustering criteria; identifying, for each respective one of the job clusters, a set of candidates from among the candidates to reduce inter-cluster conflict; selecting, for each of the jobs in a given one of the job clusters, individual candidates from among the set of candidates corresponding to the given job cluster to reduce intra-cluster conflict with respect to the plurality of candidates; and outputting one or more optimized lists of the candidates for the jobs based on the identifying and the selecting.

Designing conflict reducing outreach strategies to mitigate inefficiencies in proactive sourcing process

One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving a ranked listing of a plurality of candidates; within a first one of a plurality of collaboration rounds: (i) aggregating the ranked listings into an overall listing, (ii) presenting the overall listing to a first one of the job candidate matching agents, and (iii) receiving at least one modification to the overall listing from the agents; (iv) presenting a version of the overall listing to each of the remaining agents; and (v) receiving any modifications from the agents until all of the agents have had a turn; conducting others of the plurality of collaboration rounds: (i) presenting a version of the overall listing and (ii) receiving any modifications from the agents; (iii) presenting a version of the overall listing to each of the remaining agents, and (iv) receiving any modifications from the agents; and providing the final version to a user.

Methods and systems for selecting a set of fast computable functions to assess core properties of entities are disclosed. A method includes: receiving a request to select a set of fast computable functions to determine core properties of an entity; determining, for each of a plurality of fast computable function nodes in a directed graph, a set of core property nodes in the directed graph that are connected to the fast computable function node; adding, to a solution set, a fast computable function node that is connected to a highest number of core property nodes that are currently unconnected to nodes in the solution set; repeating the adding until each of the core property nodes is connected to at least one of the nodes in the solution set; and outputting the fast computable function nodes in the solution set in response to the request.

Selecting a set of fast computable functions to assess core properties of entities

One embodiment provides a computer implemented method, including: receiving billing information related to a billing contract of a customer of a seller, wherein the billing contract identifies amounts of invoices and an invoice frequency; identifying, utilizing one or more artificial intelligence agents, one or more risk factors associated with generation of a pending invoice based upon the billing information; and recommending, utilizing the one or more artificial intelligence agents, a generation date for the pending invoice based upon the one or more risk factors, wherein the recommending includes selecting a generation date to facilitate timely payment of the pending invoice by the customer.
