A computer-implemented method for employing a time-series-to-text generation model to generate accurate description texts is provided. The method includes passing time series data through a time series encoder and a multilayer perceptron (MLP) classifier to obtain predicted concept labels, converting the predicted concept labels, by a serializer, to a text token sequence by concatenating an aspect term and an option term of every aspect, inputting the text token sequence into a pretrained language model including a bidirectional encoder and an autoregressive decoder, and using adapter layers to fine-tune the pretrained language model to generate description texts.

Rating prediction systems and methods include extracting aspect-sentiment pairs from an input text. An attention-property-aware rating is estimated for the input text using the extracted aspect-sentiment pairs with a neural network that captures implicit and explicit features of the text. A response to the input text is performed based on the estimated rating.

Methods and systems for responding to changing conditions include training a model, using a processor, using trajectories that resulted in a positive outcome and trajectories that resulted in a negative outcome. Training is performed using an adversarial discriminator to train the model to generate trajectories that are similar to historical trajectories that resulted in a positive outcome, and using a cooperative discriminator to train the model to generate trajectories that are dissimilar to historical trajectories that resulted in a negative outcome. A dynamic response regime is generated using the trained model and environment information. A response to changing environment conditions is performed in accordance with the dynamic response regime.
