Systems And Methods For Implementing A Machine-Learning Agent To Retrieve Information In Response To A Message
Systems And Methods For Implementing A Machine-Learning Agent To Retrieve Information In Response To A Message
US Patent:
8533132, Sep 10, 2013
Filed:
Jul 22, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/841714
Inventors:
John Zimmerman - Pittsburgh PA, US

Assignee:
Carnegie Mellon University - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
G06F 15/18
US Classification:
706 12
Abstract:
Mixed-initiative message-augmenting agent systems and methods that provide users with tools that allow them to respond to messages, such as email messages, containing requests for information or otherwise requiring responses that require information that needs to be retrieved from one or more data sources. The systems and methods allow users to train machine-learning agents how to retrieve and present information in responses to like messages so that the machine-learning agents can eventually automatedly generate responses with minimal involvement by the users. Embodiments of the systems and methods allow users to build message-augmenting forms containing the desired information for responding to messages and to demonstrate to the machine-learning agents where to retrieve pertinent information for populating the forms. Embodiments of the systems and methods allow users to modify and repair automatically generated forms to continually improve the knowledge of the machine-learning agents.

Assignee:
CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709203
Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses, methods, and software for collecting and disseminating crowd-sourced information relating to one or more shared vehicles, such as buses, passenger trains, subway vehicles, streetcars, etc. The crowd-sourced information is collected via mobile client devices carried by users, such a riders of the shared vehicle at issue. Information collected includes tracing data for tracing the route and timing of each shared vehicles. The tracing data is used to update a computer model that helps predict arrival/departure times. The predicted arrival times can be conveyed to users and to allow people to arrange rendezvous events. Other information collected includes user-report information on items such as condition of the shared vehicle, fullness of the vehicle, and the user's experience with the vehicle and/or corresponding infrastructure. Collected user-report information can be shared with other users and/or a customer service system affiliated with the shared vehicle.
