Commercial interactions with non-discretized items such as liquids in carafes or other dispensers are detected and associated with actors using images captured by one or more digital cameras including the carafes or dispensers within their fields of view. The images are processed to detect body parts of actors and other aspects therein, and to not only determine that a commercial interaction has occurred but also identify an actor that performed the commercial interaction. Based on information or data determined from such images, movements of body parts associated with raising, lowering or rotating one or more carafes or other dispensers may be detected, and a commercial interaction involving such carafes or dispensers may be detected and associated with a specific actor accordingly.

A neural network pruning system can sparsely prune neural network models using an optimizer based approach that is agnostic to the model architecture being pruned. The neural network pruning system can prune by operating on the parameter vector of the full model and the gradient vector of the loss function with respect to the model parameters. The neural network pruning system can iteratively update parameters based on the gradients, while zeroing out as many parameters as possible based a preconfigured penalty.

A method can be used to predict risk using machine learning models having efficient feature learning. A risk prediction model can be applied to time-series data associated with a target entity to generate a risk indicator. The risk prediction model can include a feature learning model for generating features from the time-series data. The risk prediction model can also include a risk classification model for generating the risk indicator. The feature learning model can include filters and can be trained. Parameters of the risk prediction model can be adjusted to minimize a loss function associated with risk indicators. An updated risk prediction model can be generated by removing a filter from an original set of filters based on influencing scores of the original filters. The risk indicator can be transmitted to a computing device for use in controlling access of the target entity to a computing environment.

Disclosed embodiments may include a system that may receive an interaction message associated with an interaction a user has with an application or website, the interaction message may include an error message or a repeated action message. The system may identify, using a first machine learning model, one or more issues associated with the interaction message, retrieve one or more troubleshooting steps mapped to the one or more issues, and generate a first message comprising the one or more troubleshooting steps and a feedback request on an effectiveness of the one or more troubleshooting steps. The system may transmit the first message to the user, receive feedback from the user in response to the feedback request, and determine whether the feedback is negative. When the feedback is negative, the system may transmit a second message to a representative requesting the representative call the user.

The technology disclosed describes determination of which elements of a sequence are nearest to uniformly spaced cells in a grid, where the elements have element coordinates, and the cells have dimension-wise cell indices and cell coordinates. The determination includes generating an element-to-cells mapping that maps, to each of the elements, a subset of the cells. The subset of the cells mapped to a particular element in the sequence includes a nearest cell in the grid and one or more neighborhood cells in the grid, and the nearest cell is selected based on matching element coordinates of the particular element to the cell coordinates. The determination further includes generating a cell-to-elements mapping that maps, to each of the cells, a subset of the elements, and using the cell-to-elements mapping to determine, for each of the cells, a nearest element in the sequence.

Methods and systems are disclosed herein for using anomaly detection in timeseries data of user sentiment to detect incidents in computing systems and identify events within an enterprise. An anomaly detection system may receive social media messages that include a timestamp indicating when each message was published. The system may generate sentiment identifiers for the social media messages. The sentiment identifiers and timestamps associated with the social media messages may be used to generate a timeseries dataset for each type of sentiment identifier. The timeseries datasets may be input into an anomaly detection model to determine whether an anomaly has occurred. The system may retrieve textual data from the social media messages associated with the detected anomaly and may use the text to determine a computing system or event associated with the detected anomaly.

An audio stream is detected during a communication session with a user. Natural language processing on the audio stream is performed to update a set of attributes by supplementing the set of attributes based on attributes derived from the audio stream. A set of filter values is updated based on the updated set of attributes. The updated set of filter values is used to query a set of databases to obtain datasets. A probabilistic program is executed during the communication session by determining a set of probability parameters characterizing a probability of an anomaly occurring based on the datasets and the set of attributes. A determination is made if whether the probability satisfies a threshold. In response to a determination that the probability satisfies the threshold, a record is updated to identify the communication session to indicate that the threshold is satisfied.

A batch sampling unit samples, for each of the tasks, samples from corresponding one of the pieces of learning data with the corresponding batch size calculated by the learning data processing unit. A learning unit updates a weight of a discriminator for each of the tasks, using the samples sampled by the batch sampling unit.
