[0022] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine execution elements 128 from raw data 116 using a clustering algorithm or a classifier. The clustering algorithm is further described below. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine one clustering algorithm from a plurality of clustering algorithms to cluster raw data 116. As a non-limiting example, clustering algorithm may include a particle swarm optimization algorithm, a k-means clustering algorithm, any clustering algorithm described in the entirety of this disclosure, or any clustering algorithm that may occur to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure; k-means clustering algorithms are further described below for exemplary purposes. In a non-limiting example, processor 104 may generate execution element 128 from raw data 116 by clustering raw data 116, and label the clusters (execution element 128); for instance, raw data 116 may be grouped by a clustering algorithm around centroids, and labels may be automatically assigned to centroids and / or may be labeled using user-entered labels for such centroids. In some embodiments, labeled clusters may be used as execution element 128 and the correlation of clusters to datasets may be used to train a classifier, such as a group classifier. In someembodiments, generating training data and training classifier may be simultaneous; for instance, clustering algorithm and / or a classifier using a similar distance metric may be used to associate raw data 116 with one or more centroids, which may enable raw data 116 to be classified to clusters (execution element 128) associated with such centroids. As a non-limiting example, once clusters or labels are identified or generated, a dataset may be matched to one of the clusters and its label.

[0023] With continued reference to FIG. 1, as a non-limiting example, processor 104 may implement a feature learning algorithm to condition raw data 116. In some embodiments, a classifier may additionally rely on a feature learning algorithm to build the appropriate associations around each raw data 116. A “feature learning algorithm,” as used herein, is a machine-learning algorithm that identifies associations between elements of data in a data set, which may include without limitation a training data set, where particular outputs and / or inputs are not specified. For instance, and without limitation, a feature learning algorithm may detect co-occurrences of features (execution element 128) and cluster raw data 116 into clusters as a function of the detected co-occurrences of features. As a non-limiting example, feature learning algorithm may detect certain set of events (execution element 128) frequently appear together or in close succession. In an embodiment, first feature learning algorithm may perform clustering of data.

[0024] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, at least a processor 104 may analyze raw data 116 or document to find execution element 128 using optical character recognition (OCR). For the purposes of this disclosure, “optical character recognition” is a technology that enables the recognition and conversion of printed or written text into machine- encoded text. In some cases, processor 104 may be configured to recognize a keyword using the OCR to find execution element 128. In some cases, the at least a processor 104 may transcribe much or even substantially all raw data 116.

[0025] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, optical character recognition or optical character reader (OCR) may include automatic conversion of images of written (e.g., typed, handwritten or printed text) into machine-encoded text. In some cases, recognition of a keyword from raw data 116 may include one or more processes, including without limitation optical character recognition (OCR), optical word recognition, intelligent character recognition, intelligent word recognition, and the like. In some cases, OCR mayrecognize written text, one glyph or character at a time. In some cases, optical word recognition may recognize written text, one word at a time, for example, for languages that use a space as a word divider. In some cases, intelligent character recognition (ICR) may recognize written text one glyph or character at a time, for instance by employing machine-learning processes. In some cases, intelligent word recognition (IWR) may recognize written text, one word at a time, for instance by employing machine-learning processes.

[0026] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, OCR may be an "offline" process, which analyses a static document or image frame. In some cases, handwriting movement analysis can be used as input to handwriting recognition. For example, instead of merely using shapes of glyphs and words, this technique may capture motions, such as the order in which segments are drawn, the direction, and the pattern of putting the pen down and lifting it. This additional information may make handwriting recognition more accurate. In some cases, this technology may be referred to as “online” character recognition, dynamic character recognition, real-time character recognition, and intelligent character recognition.

[0027] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, OCR processes may employ preprocessing of raw data 116. Pre-processing process may include without limitation de-skew, despeckle, binarization, line removal, layout analysis or “zoning,” line and word detection, script recognition, character isolation or “segmentation,” and normalization. In some cases, a de-skew process may include applying a transform (e.g., homography or affine transform) to the raw data 116 to align text. In some cases, a de-speckle process may include removing positive and negative spots and / or smoothing edges. In some cases, a binarization process may include converting an image from color or greyscale to black-and-white (i.e., a binary image).Binarization may be performed as a simple way of separating text (or any other desired image component) from a background of image component. In some cases, binarization may be required for example if an employed OCR algorithm only works on binary images. In some cases, a line removal process may include removal of non-glyph or non-character imagery (e.g., boxes and lines). In some cases, a layout analysis or “zoning” process may identify columns, paragraphs, captions, and the like as distinct blocks. In some cases, a line and word detection process may establish a baseline for word and character shapes and separate words, if necessary. In some cases, a script recognition process may, for example in multilingual documents, identify script allowing an appropriate OCR algorithm to be selected. In some cases, a character isolationor “segmentation” process may separate signal characters, for example character-based OCR algorithms. In some cases, a normalization process may normalize aspect ratio and / or scale of image component.

[0028] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments an OCR process may include an OCR algorithm. Exemplary OCR algorithms include matrix matching process and / or feature extraction processes. Matrix matching may involve comparing an image to a stored glyph on a pixel-by-pixel basis. In some case, matrix matching may also be known as “pattern matching,” “pattern recognition,” and / or “image correlation.” Matrix matching may rely on an input glyph being correctly isolated from the rest of the image component. Matrix matching may also rely on a stored glyph being in a similar font and at a same scale as input glyph. Matrix matching may work best with typewritten text.

[0029] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, an OCR process may include a feature extraction process. In some cases, feature extraction may decompose a glyph into a feature. Exemplary non-limiting features may include corners, edges, lines, closed loops, line direction, line intersections, and the like. In some cases, feature extraction may reduce dimensionality of representation and may make the recognition process computationally more efficient. In some cases, extracted feature may be compared with an abstract vector-like representation of a character, which might reduce to one or more glyph prototypes. General techniques of feature detection in computer vision are applicable to this type of OCR. In some embodiments, machine-learning processes like nearest neighbor classifiers (e.g., k-nearest neighbors algorithm) may be used to compare image features with stored glyph features and choose a nearest match. OCR may employ any machine-learning process described in this disclosure, for example machine-learning processes described with reference to FIG. 4. Exemplary non-limiting OCR software may include Cuneiform and Tesseract. Cuneiform may include a multi-language, open-source optical character recognition system originally developed by Cognitive Technologies of Moscow, Russia. Tesseract may include free OCR software originally developed by Hewlett-Packard of Palo Alto, California, United States.

[0030] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, OCR may employ a two-pass approach to character recognition. A first pass may try to recognize a character. Each character that is satisfactory may be passed to an adaptive classifier as training data. The adaptive classifier then may get a chance to recognize characters more accurately as it further analyzes raw data116. Since the adaptive classifier may have learned something useful a little too late to recognize characters on the first pass, a second pass may be run over the raw data 116. Second pass may include adaptive recognition and use characters recognized with high confidence on the first pass to recognize better remaining characters on the second pass. In some cases, two-pass approach may be advantageous for unusual fonts or low-quality image components where visual verbal content may be distorted. Another exemplary OCR software tool may include OCRopus. OCRopus development is led by German Research Centre for Artificial Intelligence in Kaiserslautern, Germany. In some cases, OCR software may employ neural networks.

[0031] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, OCR may include postprocessing. For example, OCR accuracy may be increased, in some cases, if output is constrained by a lexicon. A lexicon may include a list or set of words that are allowed to occur in a document. In some cases, a lexicon may include, for instance, all the words in the English language, or a more technical lexicon for a specific field. In some cases, an output stream may be a plain text stream or file of characters. In some cases, an OCR process may preserve an original layout of visual verbal content. In some cases, near-neighbor analysis can make use of cooccurrence frequencies to correct errors, by noting that certain words are often seen together. For example, “Washington, D.C.” is generally far more common in English than “Washington DOC.” In some cases, an OCR process may make us of a priori knowledge of grammar for a language being recognized. For example, grammar rules may be used to help determine if a word is likely to be a verb or a noun. Distance conceptualization may be employed for recognition and classification. For example, a Levenshtein distance algorithm may be used in OCR postprocessing to further optimize results.

[0032] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, processor 104 may include audiovisual speech recognition (AVSR) processes to recognize execution element 128 in video of raw data 116. For example, processor 104 may use video of raw data 116 to aid in recognition of audible verbal content such as viewing a user move their lips to speak on video to process execution element 128. AVSR may use video of raw data 116 to aid the overall translation of the execution element 128 of raw data 116. In some embodiments, AVSR may include techniques employing image processing capabilities in lip reading to aid speech recognition processes. In some cases, AVSR may be used to decode (i.e., recognize) indeterministic phonemes or help in forming a preponderance among probabilistic candidates. In some cases, AVSR may include anaudio-based automatic speech recognition process and an image-based automatic speech recognition process. AVSR may combine results from both processes with feature fusion. Audiobased speech recognition process may analysis audio according to any method described herein, for instance using a Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) and / or log-Mel spectrogram derived from raw audio samples. Image-based speech recognition may perform feature recognition to yield an image vector. In some cases, feature recognition may include any feature recognition process described in this disclosure, for example a variant of a convolutional neural network. In some cases, AVSR employs both an audio datum and an image datum to recognize execution element 128. For instance, audio vector and image vector may each be concatenated and used to predict speech made by a user, who is ‘on camera.’

[0033] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may obtain execution element 128 using an automatic speech recognition (ASR). As a non-limiting example, ASR may analyze a record of a call or conversation, voice message, record of speech, or the like. For the purposes of this disclosure, “automatic speech recognition” is a technology that converts spoken language into written text or machine-readable form. In some embodiments, ASR may include techniques employing language processing to aid speech recognition processes. In some cases, ASR may be used to decode (i.e., recognize) indeterministic phonemes or help in forming a preponderance among probabilistic candidates. In some cases, ASR may include an audiobased automatic speech recognition process and an image-based automatic speech recognition process. ASR may analysis audio according to any method described herein, for instance using a Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) and / or log-Mel spectrogram derived from raw audio samples. In some cases, feature recognition may include any feature recognition process described in this disclosure, for example a variant of a convolutional neural network. In some cases, ASR employs an audio datum to recognize execution element 128. For instance, audio vector may each be concatenated and used to predict speech made by user.

[0034] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, automatic speech recognition may require training (i.e., enrollment). In some cases, training an automatic speech recognition model may require an individual speaker to read text or isolated vocabulary. In some cases, a video may include an audio component having an audible verbal content (execution element 128), the contents of which are known a priori by processor 104. Processor 104 may then train an automatic speech recognition model according to training data which includesaudible verbal content correlated to known content. In this way, processor 104 may analyze a person's specific voice and train an automatic speech recognition model to the person's speech, resulting in increased accuracy. Alternatively or additionally, in some cases, processor 104 may include an automatic speech recognition model that is speaker-independent. As used in this disclosure, a “speaker independent” automatic speech recognition process does not require training for each individual speaker. Conversely, as used in this disclosure, automatic speech recognition processes that employ individual speaker specific training are “speaker dependent.”

[0035] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may perform voice recognition or speaker identification. As used in this disclosure, “voice recognition” refers to identifying a speaker, from audio content, rather than what the speaker is saying. In some cases, processor 104 may first recognize a speaker of verbal audio content or raw data 116 and then automatically recognize speech of the speaker, for example by way of a speaker dependent automatic speech recognition model or process. In some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process can be used to authenticate or verify an identity of a speaker. In some cases, a speaker may or may not include a user. For example, user may speak within video, but others may speak as well.

[0036] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may include one or all of acoustic modeling, language modeling, and statistically-based speech recognition algorithms. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may employ hidden Markov models (HMMs). As discussed in greater detail below, language modeling such as that employed in natural language processing applications like document classification or statistical machine translation, may also be employed by an automatic speech recognition process.

[0037] With continued reference to FIG. 1, an exemplary algorithm employed in automatic speech recognition may include or even be based upon hidden Markov models. Hidden Markov models (HMMs) may include statistical models that output a sequence of symbols or quantities. HMMs can be used in speech recognition because a speech signal can be viewed as a piecewise stationary signal or a short-time stationary signal. For example, over a short time scale (e.g., 10 milliseconds), speech can be approximated as a stationary process. Speech (i.e., audible verbal content or raw data 116) can be understood as a Markov model for many stochastic purposes.

[0038] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments HMMs can be trained automatically and may be relatively simple and computationally feasible to use. In an exemplary automatic speech recognition process, a hidden Markov model may output a sequence of n- dimensional real-valued vectors (with n being a small integer, such as 10), at a rate of about one vector every 10 milliseconds. Vectors may consist of cepstral coefficients. A cepstral coefficient requires using a spectral domain. Cepstral coefficients may be obtained by taking a Fourier transform of a short time window of speech yielding a spectrum, decorrelating the spectrum using a cosine transform, and taking first (i.e., most significant) coefficients. In some cases, an HMM may have in each state a statistical distribution that is a mixture of diagonal covariance Gaussians, yielding a likelihood for each observed vector. In some cases, each word, or phoneme, may have a different output distribution; an HMM for a sequence of words or phonemes may be made by concatenating an HMMs for separate words and phonemes.

[0039] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may use various combinations of a number of techniques in order to improve results. In some cases, a large-vocabulary automatic speech recognition process may include context dependency for phonemes. For example, in some cases, phonemes with different left and right context may have different realizations as HMM states. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use cepstral normalization to normalize for different speakers and recording conditions. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use vocal tract length normalization (VTLN) for male-female normalization and maximum likelihood linear regression (MLLR) for more general speaker adaptation. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may determine so-called delta and delta-delta coefficients to capture speech dynamics and might use heteroscedastic linear discriminant analysis (HLDA). In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use splicing and a linear discriminate analysis (LDA)- based projection, which may include heteroscedastic linear discriminant analysis or a global semi-tied covariance transform (also known as maximum likelihood linear transform [MLLT]). In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use discriminative training techniques, which may dispense with a purely statistical approach to HMM parameter estimation and instead optimize some classification-related measure of training data; examples may include maximum mutual information (MMI), minimum classification error (MCE), and minimum phone error (MPE).

[0040] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may be said to decode speech (i.e., raw data 116). Decoding of speech may occur when an automatic speech recognition system is presented with a new utterance and must compute a most likely sentence. In some cases, speech decoding may include a Viterbi algorithm. A Viterbi algorithm may include a dynamic programming algorithm for obtaining a maximum a posteriori probability estimate of a most likely sequence of hidden states (i.e., Viterbi path) that results in a sequence of observed events. Viterbi algorithms may be employed in context of Markov information sources and hidden Markov models. A Viterbi algorithm may be used to find a best path, for example using a dynamically created combination hidden Markov model, having both acoustic and language model information, using a statically created combination hidden Markov model (e.g., finite state transducer [FST] approach).

[0041] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, speech (i.e., audible verbal content or raw data 116) decoding may include considering a set of good candidates of execution element 128 and not only a best candidate, when presented with a new utterance. In some cases, a better scoring function (i.e., re-scoring) may be used to rate each of a set of good candidates, allowing selection of a best candidate according to this refined score. In some cases, a set of candidates can be kept either as a list (i.e., N-best list approach) or as a subset of models (i.e., a lattice). In some cases, re-scoring may be performed by optimizing Bayes risk (or an approximation thereof). In some cases, re-scoring may include optimizing for sentence (including keywords) that minimizes an expectancy of a given loss function with regards to all possible transcriptions. For example, re-scoring may allow selection of a sentence that minimizes an average distance to other possible sentences weighted by their estimated probability. In some cases, an employed loss function may include Levenshtein distance, although different distance calculations may be performed, for instance for specific tasks. In some cases, a set of candidates may be pruned to maintain tractability.

[0042] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may employ dynamic time warping (DTW)-based approaches. Dynamic time warping may include algorithms for measuring similarity between two sequences, which may vary in time or speed. For instance, similarities in walking patterns would be detected, even if in one video the person was walking slowly and if in another he or she were walking more quickly, or even if there were accelerations and deceleration during the course of oneobservation. DTW has been applied to video, audio, and graphics - indeed, any data that can be turned into a linear representation can be analyzed with DTW. In some cases, DTW may be used by an automatic speech recognition process to cope with different speaking (i.e., audible verbal content or raw data 116) speeds. In some cases, DTW may allow processor 104 to find an optimal match between two given sequences (e.g., time series) with certain restrictions. That is, in some cases, sequences can be "warped" non-linearly to match each other. In some cases, a DTW-based sequence alignment method may be used in context of hidden Markov models.

[0043] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may include a neural network. Neural network may include any neural network, for example those disclosed with reference to FIGS. 5 - 6. In some cases, neural networks may be used for automatic speech recognition, including phoneme classification, phoneme classification through multi-objective evolutionary algorithms, isolated word recognition, audiovisual speech recognition, audiovisual speaker recognition and speaker adaptation. In some cases, neural networks employed in automatic speech recognition may make fewer explicit assumptions about feature statistical properties than HMMs and therefore may have several qualities making them attractive recognition models for speech recognition. When used to estimate the probabilities of a speech feature segment, neural networks may allow discriminative training in a natural and efficient manner. In some cases, neural networks may be used to effectively classify audible verbal content or raw data 116 over short-time interval, for instance such as individual phonemes and isolated words. In some embodiments, a neural network may be employed by automatic speech recognition processes for pre-processing, feature transformation and / or dimensionality reduction, for example prior to HMM-based recognition. In some embodiments, long short-term memory (LSTM) and related recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and Time Delay Neural Networks(TDNN's) may be used for automatic speech recognition, for example over longer time intervals for continuous speech recognition.

[0044] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in come embodiments, processor 104 may use a language processing module to find execution element 128 from raw data 116. The language processing module may be configured to extract, from raw data 116 or analyzed raw data 116 using AVSR, ASR or OCR, one or more words. One or more words may include, without limitation, strings of one or more characters, including without limitation any sequence or sequences of letters, numbers, punctuation, diacritic marks, engineering symbols, geometricdimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) symbols, chemical symbols and formulas, spaces, whitespace, and other symbols, including any symbols usable as textual data as described above. Textual data may be parsed into tokens, which may include a simple word (sequence of letters separated by whitespace) or more generally a sequence of characters as described previously. The term “token,” as used herein, refers to any smaller, individual groupings of text from a larger source of text; tokens may be broken up by word, pair of words, sentence, or other delimitation. These tokens may in turn be parsed in various ways. Textual data may be parsed into words or sequences of words, which may be considered words as well. Textual data may be parsed into "n-grams,” where all sequences of n consecutive characters are considered. Any or all possible sequences of tokens or words may be stored as "chains,” for example for use as a Markov chain or Hidden Markov Model.

[0045] With continued reference to FIG. 1, language processing module may operate to produce a language processing model. Language processing model may include a program automatically generated by processor 104 and / or language processing module to produce associations between one or more words extracted from at least a document and detect associations, including without limitation mathematical associations, between such words. Associations between language elements, where language elements include for purposes herein extracted words, relationships of such categories to other such term may include, without limitation, mathematical associations, including without limitation statistical correlations between any language element and any other language element and / or language elements. Statistical correlations and / or mathematical associations may include probabilistic formulas or relationships indicating, for instance, a likelihood that a given extracted word indicates a given category of semantic meaning. As a further example, statistical correlations and / or mathematical associations may include probabilistic formulas or relationships indicating a positive and / or negative association between at least an extracted word and / or a given semantic meaning; positive or negative indication may include an indication that a given document is or is not indicating a category semantic meaning. Whether a phrase, sentence, word, or other textual element in a document or corpus of documents constitutes a positive or negative indicator may be determined, in an embodiment, by mathematical associations between detected words, comparisons to phrases and / or words indicating positive and / or negative indicators that are stored in memory at computing device, or the like.

[0046] With continued reference to FIG. 1, language processing module and / or diagnostic engine may generate the language processing model by any suitable method, including without limitation a natural language processing classification algorithm; language processing model may include a natural language process classification model that enumerates and / or derives statistical relationships between input terms and output terms. Algorithm to generate language processing model may include a stochastic gradient descent algorithm, which may include a method that iteratively optimizes an objective function, such as an objective function representing a statistical estimation of relationships between terms, including relationships between input terms and output terms, in the form of a sum of relationships to be estimated. In an alternative or additional approach, sequential tokens may be modeled as chains, serving as the observations in a Hidden Markov Model (HMM). HMMs, as used herein, are statistical models with inference algorithms that that may be applied to the models. In such models, a hidden state to be estimated may include an association between an extracted words, phrases, and / or other semantic units. There may be a finite number of categories to which an extracted word may pertain; an HMM inference algorithm, such as the forward-backward algorithm or the Viterbi algorithm, may be used to estimate the most likely discrete state given a word or sequence of words. Language processing module may combine two or more approaches. For instance, and without limitation, machine-learning program may use a combination of Naive-Bay es (NB), Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), and parameter grid-searching classification techniques; the result may include a classification algorithm that returns ranked associations.

[0047] With continued reference to FIG. 1, generating language processing model may include generating a vector space, which may be a collection of vectors, defined as a set of mathematical objects that can be added together under an operation of addition following properties of associativity, commutativity, existence of an identity element, and existence of an inverse element for each vector, and can be multiplied by scalar values under an operation of scalar multiplication compatible with field multiplication, and that has an identity element is distributive with respect to vector addition, and is distributive with respect to field addition. Each vector in an n-dimensional vector space may be represented by an n-tuple of numerical values. Each unique extracted word and / or language element as described above may be represented by a vector of the vector space. In an embodiment, each unique extracted and / or other language element may be represented by a dimension of vector space; as a non-limiting example, eachelement of a vector may include a number representing an enumeration of co-occurrences of the word and / or language element represented by the vector with another word and / or language element. Vectors may be normalized, scaled according to relative frequencies of appearance and / or file sizes. In an embodiment associating language elements to one another as described above may include computing a degree of vector similarity between a vector representing each language element and a vector representing another language element; vector similarity may be measured according to any norm for proximity and / or similarity of two vectors, including without limitation cosine similarity, which measures the similarity of two vectors by evaluating the cosine of the angle between the vectors, which can be computed using a dot product of the two vectors divided by the lengths of the two vectors. Degree of similarity may include any other geometric measure of distance between vectors.

[0048] With continued reference to FIG. 1, language processing module may use a corpus of documents to generate associations between language elements in a language processing module, and diagnostic engine may then use such associations to analyze words extracted from one or more documents and determine that the one or more documents indicate significance of a category. In an embodiment, language module and / or processor 104 may perform this analysis using a selected set of significant documents, such as documents identified by one or more experts as representing good information; experts may identify or enter such documents via graphical user interface or may communicate identities of significant documents according to any other suitable method of electronic communication, or by providing such identity to other persons who may enter such identifications into processor 104. Documents may be entered into a computing device by being uploaded by an expert or other persons using, without limitation, file transfer protocol (FTP) or other suitable methods for transmission and / or upload of documents; alternatively or additionally, where a document is identified by a citation, a uniform resource identifier (URI), uniform resource locator (URL) or other datum permitting unambiguous identification of the document, diagnostic engine may automatically obtain the document using such an identifier, for instance by submitting a request to a database or compendium of documents such as JSTOR as provided by Ithaka Harbors, Inc. of New York.

[0049] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to analyze raw data 116 using machine vision system to determine execution element 128. For the purposes of this disclosure, a “machine vision system” is a type of technology thatenables a computing device to inspect, evaluate and identify still or moving images. For example, in some cases a machine vision system may be used for world modeling or registration of objects within a space. In some cases, registration may include image processing, such as without limitation object recognition, feature detection, edge / comer detection, and the like. Nonlimiting example of feature detection may include scale invariant feature transform (SIFT), Canny edge detection, Shi Tomasi corner detection, and the like. In some cases, a machine vision process may operate image classification and segmentation models, such as without limitation by way of machine vision resource (e.g., OpenMV or TensorFlow Lite). A machine vision process may detect motion, for example by way of frame differencing algorithms. A machine vision process may detect markers, for example blob detection, object detection, face detection, and the like. In some cases, a machine vision process may perform eye tracking (i.e., gaze estimation). In some cases, a machine vision process may perform person detection, for example by way of a trained machine learning model. In some cases, a machine vision process may perform motion detection (e.g., camera motion and / or object motion), for example by way of optical flow detection. In some cases, machine vision process may perform code (e.g., barcode) detection and decoding. In some cases, a machine vision process may additionally perform image capture and / or video recording.

[0050] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, registration may include one or more transformations to orient a camera frame (or an image or video stream) relative a three- dimensional coordinate system; exemplary transformations include without limitation homography transforms and affine transforms. In an embodiment, registration of first frame to a coordinate system may be verified and / or corrected using object identification and / or computer vision, as described above. For instance, and without limitation, an initial registration to two dimensions, represented for instance as registration to the x and y coordinates, may be performed using a two-dimensional projection of points in three dimensions onto a first frame, however. A third dimension of registration, representing depth and / or a z axis, may be detected by comparison of two frames; for instance, where first frame includes a pair of frames captured using a pair of cameras (e.g., stereoscopic camera also referred to in this disclosure as stereocamera), image recognition and / or edge detection software may be used to detect a pair of stereoscopic views of images of an object; two stereoscopic views may be compared to derive z- axis values of points on object permitting, for instance, derivation of further z-axis points withinand / or around the object using interpolation. This may be repeated with multiple objects in field of view, including without limitation environmental features of interest identified by object classifier and / or indicated by an operator. In an embodiment, x and y axes may be chosen to span a plane common to two cameras used for stereoscopic image capturing and / or an xy plane of a first frame; a result, x and y translational components and may be pre-populated in translational and rotational matrices, for affine transformation of coordinates of object, also as described above. Initial x and y coordinates and / or guesses at transformational matrices may alternatively or additionally be performed between first frame and second frame, as described above. For each point of a plurality of points on object and / or edge and / or edges of object as described above, x and y coordinates of a first stereoscopic frame may be populated, with an initial estimate of z coordinates based, for instance, on assumptions about object, such as an assumption that ground is substantially parallel to an xy plane as selected above. Z coordinates, and / or x, y, and z coordinates, registered using image capturing and / or object identification processes as described above may then be compared to coordinates predicted using initial guess at transformation matrices; an error function may be computed using by comparing the two sets of points, and new x, y, and / or z coordinates, may be iteratively estimated and compared until the error function drops below a threshold level.

[0051] With continued reference to FIG. 1, alternatively or additionally, identifying a shape or object (execution element 128) in image may include classifying a shape or object (execution element 128) in image to a label of a shape or object in image using an image classifier; the image classifier may be trained using a plurality of images of execution elements. For example and without limitation, machine vision system may use image classifier, wherein an input may include raw data 116 that is analyzed to find execution element, and through a classification algorithm, outputs execution element 128 with a label of outputs execution element based on image training data. The image classifier may be configured to determine which of a plurality of edge-detected shapes is closest to an attribute set of execution element 128 as determined by training using training data and selecting the determined shape as execution element 128. As a non-limiting example, image classifier may be trained with image training data that correlates a plurality of images of execution element 128 to a label of execution element 128. In a nonlimiting example, input data of image classifier may include images of products and output data of image classifier may include a name (label) of products. Alternatively, identification ofexecution element 128 may be performed without using computer vision and / or classification; for instance, identifying execution element 128 may further include receiving, from a user, an identification of execution element 128 in raw data 116. In some embodiments, image training data may be stored in graph database 120. In some embodiments, image training data may be received from one or more users, graph database 120, external computing devices, and / or previous iterations of processing. As a non-limiting example, image training data may include instructions from a user, who may be an expert user, a past user in embodiments disclosed herein, or the like, which may be stored in memory and / or stored in graph database 120, where the instructions may include labeling of training examples. In some embodiments, image training data may be updated iteratively on a feedback loop. As a non-limiting example, processor 104 may update image training data iteratively through a feedback loop as a function of incoming new raw data 116, or the like.

[0052] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate a weighted value of each of a plurality of execution elements 128. For the purposes of this disclosure, a “weighted value” is a numerical value assigned to an execution element that reflects its relative value, importance, or significance. As a non-limiting example, weighted value may include importance of execution elements 128 for solving a technical problem of a user. In another non-limiting example, weighted value may include value of execution elements 128 for delivering a monetary value to a user. In some embodiments, weighted value may be stored in graph database 120. In In some embodiments, weighted value may be retrieved from graph database 120. In some embodiments, weighted value may be assigned to execution elements 128 by a user or be assigned by processor 104 through the use of machine-learning module. For example, and without limitation, first execution element may include weighted value of ‘5’ while second execution element includes weighted value of ’ 10’ for a range of 0-10, where ‘0’ may represent execution element 128 having a minimum and / or no importance or value and ‘ 10’ represents execution element 128 having maximum or high importance or value. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine a data extrapolation 136 as a function of weighted value of each of a plurality of execution elements 128. The data extrapolation 136 disclosed herein is further described below. In a nonlimiting example, processor 104 may determine data extrapolation 136 for execution elements 128 that includes highest weighted value. For example, and without limitation, if first executionelement includes weighted value of ‘5’ and second execution element includes weighted value of ’ 10,’ processor 104 may determine data extrapolation 136 for the second execution element. In some embodiments, processor 104 may determine data extrapolation 136 for a set number of execution elements 128 that includes highest weighted value. As a non-limiting example, processor 104 may determine data extrapolation 136 for five execution elements 128 that includes highest weighted value among other execution elements 128. The set number for execution elements 128, in a non-limiting example, may be determined by a user, received from graph database 120 or determined through the use of machine-learning module. Machinelearning module disclosed herein is further described with respect to FIG. 4.

[0053] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate or obtain element training data. For the purposes of this disclosure, “element training data” is training data that is used to train an element machine-learning model. In some embodiments, element training data may include correlations between exemplary raw data and exemplary execution elements. In some embodiments, element training data may be consistent with any training data described in the entirety of this disclosure. In some embodiments, element training data may be received from one or more users, graph database 120, external computing devices, and / or previous iterations of processing. As a non-limiting example, element training data may include instructions from a user, who may be an expert user, a past user in embodiments disclosed herein, or the like, which may be stored in memory and / or stored in graph database 120, where the instructions may include labeling of training examples. In some embodiments, element training data may be updated iteratively through a feedback loop. As a non-limiting example, element training data may be updated iteratively through a feedback loop as a function of newly collected raw data 116, execution element 128, output of machine-learning models or classifiers, or the like as described below. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate element machine-learning model 148. In a non-limiting example, generating element machine-learning model 148 may include training, retraining, or fine-tuning element machine-learning model 148 using element training data or updated element training data.

For the purposes of this disclosure, an “end user” is the final recipients or entities that interact with a user. In some embodiments, an end user may utilize execution element 128 or data extrapolation 136 generated be a user. As a non-limiting example, an end user may include a client or customer of a user. As another non-limiting example, an end user may include a system, program, device, software application, service, device, or processor other than a user. In some embodiments, end user may be stored in graph database 120. In some embodiments, end user may be retrieved from graph database 120.

[0058] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine at least an executor of a plurality of execution elements 128. For the purposes of this disclosure, an “executor” is an entity that executes an execution element. As a non-limiting example, executor may include an employee, technician, or the like that can work to execute execution element 128 to meet execution token datum 140, execute execution element 128 using operation datum 132, or execute execution element 128 to reach or achieve data extrapolation 136.

In some embodiments, a user may manually determine executor of a plurality of execution elements 128 or processor 104 may determine executor through the use of machine-learning module or extrapolation machine-learning model 152. In some embodiments, processor 104 may determine executor or any data extrapolation 136 described herein using a clustering algorithm. As a non-limiting example, clustering algorithm may include a particle swarm optimization algorithm, a k-means clustering algorithm, any clustering algorithm described in the entirety of this disclosure, or any clustering algorithm that may occur to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure; k-means clustering algorithms are further described below for exemplary purposes. In a non-limiting example, processor 104 may identify clusters in execution elements 128 or data extrapolations 136, and label the clusters; for instance, execution elements 128 or data extrapolations 136 may be grouped by a clustering algorithm around centroids, and labels may be automatically assigned to centroids and / or may be labeled using user-entered labels for such centroids. In some embodiments, labeled clusters may be used and the correlation of clusters to datasets may beused to train a classifier. In some embodiments, generating training data and training classifier may be simultaneous; for instance, clustering algorithm and / or a classifier using a similar distance metric may be used to associate samples with one or more centroids, which may enable samples to be classified to control datasets associated with such centroids. As a non-limiting example, once clusters or labels are identified or generated, a dataset may be matched to one or the clusters and its label.

[0059] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine a concern category for each of a plurality of execution elements 128. For the purposes of this disclosure, a “concern category” is a grouping of execution elements based on a level of concern for an enterprise. In a non-limiting example, concern category may indicate that one team (i.e. executor) of an enterprise can underperform to execute execution element 128 while another is adequately performing. In another non-limiting example, concern category may indicate opportunity for executor to improve executing execution element 128. In another nonlimiting example, concern category may indicate a certain executor having strength to execute execution element 128. In another non-limiting example, concern category may indicate a possibility of execution element 128 to fail (i.e. danger) or succeed (i.e. strength). As a nonlimiting example, concern category may include danger, opportunity, strength category, or the like. Concern categories may include threshold values that differentiate categories. For example, threshold values may differentiate between dangers, opportunity, and strength categories. In some instances, concern categories may be represented by fuzzy set. Threshold metrics may be determined by scoring execution element 128 with numeric values ranging from 0 to 1, 0 to 10, 0 to 100, or any suitable range. Dangers may be the lowest scored category, indicating that execution element 128 associated therewith may cause detriment to the enterprise. Opportunity may be a middle-scored category, indicating that execution element 128 associated therewith may require improvement to become a strength, or would eventually enter the danger category after a period of time. Strength may be a high scored category, indicating execution element 128 associated therewith may be a strength of the enterprise. In some embodiments, concern category may be stored in graph database 120. In some embodiments, concern category may be retrieved from graph database 120. In some embodiments, a user may manually determine concern category.

[0060] Still referring to FIG. 1, execution element 128 may be classified to concern category using a machine learning model, such as a classifier, to organize the concern category classes. Classifiers as described throughout this disclosure may be configured to output at least a datum that labels or otherwise identifies a set of data that are clustered together, found to be close under a distance metric as described below, or the like. For example, processor 104 may generate and train a concern category classifier configured to receive execution element 128 and output concern category class. Processor 104 and / or another device may generate a classifier using a classification algorithm, defined as a processes whereby a processor 104 derives a classifier from training data. In some embodiments, concern category classifier training data may include activities associated with a concern category class. In some embodiments, concern category classifier training data may be stored in graph database 120. In some embodiments, concern category classifier training data may be received from one or more users, graph database 120, external computing devices, and / or previous iterations of processing. As a non-limiting example, concern category classifier training data may include instructions from a user, who may be an expert user, a past user in embodiments disclosed herein, or the like, which may be stored in memory and / or stored in graph database 120, where the instructions may include labeling of training examples. In some embodiments, concern category classifier training data may be updated iteratively on a feedback loop. As a non-limiting example, processor 104 may update concern category classifier training data iteratively through a feedback loop as a function of raw data 116, execution element 128, output of element machine-learning model 148, image classifier, or the like. In a non-limiting example, generating concern category classifier may include training, retraining, or fine-tuning concern category classifier using concern category classifier training data or updated concern category classifier training data. In some embodiments, generating training data and training machine-learning models may be simultaneous.

[0061] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, market data statistics may be derived from a web crawler. For example, a user may submit a plurality of websites for the web crawler to search to extract market data statistics from and correlate to execution element 128, such as aesthetics based on price, popularity, bid history search criteria, and the like. Additionally, the web crawler function may be configured to search for and / or detect one or more data patterns. A data pattern may include repeating data statistics related to executionelement 128. For example, users tend to be more active earlier in the week. In some embodiments, the web crawler may be configured to determine the relevancy of a data pattern. Relevancy may be determined by a relevancy score. In some embodiments, relevancy score may be considered a unique ability identified by outlier cluster. As used in this disclosure. An “outlier cluster” is an attribute cluster with an impact metric that differs substantially from a population average. In some embodiments, outlier cluster and execution element 128may be classified to a concern category. In some embodiments, execution element 128may be classified to multiple concern categories. In some instances, some concern categories may be more similar to outlier cluster. And outlier clusters may be represented as vectors. A degree of similarity may be determined as a function of a geometric relationship between vector representations. In some instances, a machine learning model may be utilized to determine which concern category is most closely related to outlier cluster.

[0062] Still referring to FIG. 1, concern category classifier may use data to prioritize the order in which execution element 128 is scheduled. Classification may be performed using, without limitation, linear classifiers such as without limitation logistic regression and / or naive Bayes classifiers, nearest neighbor classifiers such as k-nearest neighbors classifiers, support vector machines, least squares support vector machines, fisher’s linear discriminant, quadratic classifiers, decision trees, boosted trees, random forest classifiers, learning vector quantization, and / or neural network-based classifiers.

[0063] With continued reference to FIG. 1, processor 104 may be configured to generate any classifier disclosed herein using a Naive Bayes classification algorithm. Naive Bayes classification algorithm generates classifiers by assigning class labels to problem instances, represented as vectors of element values. Class labels are drawn from a finite set. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include generating a family of algorithms that assume that the value of a particular element is independent of the value of any other element, given a class variable. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may be based on Bayes Theorem expressed as P(A / B)= P(B / A) P(A)-^P(B), where P(A / B) is the probability of hypothesis A given data B also known as posterior probability; P(B / A) is the probability of data B given that the hypothesis A was true; P(A) is the probability of hypothesis A being true regardless of data also known as prior probability of A; and P(B) is the probability of the data regardless of the hypothesis. A naive Bayes algorithm may be generated by first transforming training data into a frequency table.Processor 104 may then calculate a likelihood table by calculating probabilities of different data entries and classification labels. Processor 104 may utilize a naive Bayes equation to calculate a posterior probability for each class. A class containing the highest posterior probability is the outcome of prediction. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a gaussian model that follows a normal distribution. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a multinomial model that is used for discrete counts. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a Bernoulli model that may be utilized when vectors are binary.

[0064] With continued reference to FIG. 1, processor 104 may be configured to generate classifier using a K-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm. A “K-nearest neighbors algorithm” as used in this disclosure, includes a classification method that utilizes feature similarity to analyze how closely out-of-sample- features resemble training data to classify input data to one or more clusters and / or categories of features as represented in training data; this may be performed by representing both training data and input data in vector forms, and using one or more measures of vector similarity to identify classifications within training data, and to determine a classification of input data. K-nearest neighbors algorithm may include specifying a K-value, or a number directing the classifier to select the k most similar entries training data to a given sample, determining the most common classifier of the entries in the database 200, and classifying the known sample; this may be performed recursively and / or iteratively to generate a classifier that may be used to classify input data as further samples. For instance, an initial set of samples may be performed to cover an initial heuristic and / or “first guess” at an output and / or relationship, which may be seeded, without limitation, using expert input received according to any process as described herein. As a non-limiting example, an initial heuristic may include a ranking of associations between inputs and elements of training data. Heuristic may include selecting some number of highest-ranking associations and / or training data elements.

[0065] With continued reference to FIG. 1, generating k-nearest neighbors algorithm may generate a first vector output containing a data entry cluster, generating a second vector output containing an input data, and calculate the distance between the first vector output and the second vector output using any suitable norm such as cosine similarity, Euclidean distance measurement, or the like. Each vector output may be represented, without limitation, as an n- tuple of values, where n is at least two values. Each value of n-tuple of values may represent a measurement or other quantitative value associated with a given category of data, or attribute,examples of which are provided in further detail below; a vector may be represented, without limitation, in n-dimensional space using an axis per category of value represented in n-tuple of values, such that a vector has a geometric direction characterizing the relative quantities of attributes in the n-tuple as compared to each other. Two vectors may be considered equivalent where their directions, and / or the relative quantities of values within each vector as compared to each other, are the same; thus, as a non-limiting example, a vector represented as [5, 10, 15] may be treated as equivalent, for purposes of this disclosure, as a vector represented as [1, 2, 3], Vectors may be more similar where their directions are more similar, and more different where their directions are more divergent; however, vector similarity may alternatively or additionally be determined using averages of similarities between like attributes, or any other measure of similarity suitable for any n-tuple of values, or aggregation of numerical similarity measures for the purposes of loss functions as described in further detail below. Any vectors as described herein may be scaled, such that each vector represents each attribute along an equivalent scale of values. Each vector may be “normalized,” or divided by a “length” attribute, such as a length attribute I as derived using a Pythagorean norm: I = 7S”=0ai2, where is attribute number z of the vector. Scaling and / or normalization may function to make vector comparison independent of absolute quantities of attributes, while preserving any dependency on similarity of attributes; this may, for instance, be advantageous where cases represented in training data are represented by different quantities of samples, which may result in proportionally equivalent vectors with divergent values.

[0066] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, determining data extrapolation 136 may include determining data extrapolation 136 using linear regression techniques. As a non-limiting example, data extrapolation 136 may include operation datum 132, execution token datum 140, end user, executor, or the like. Processor 104 may be designed and configured to create a machine-learning model using techniques for development of linear regression models. Linear regression models may include ordinary least squares regression, which aims to minimize the square of the difference between predicted outcomes and actual outcomes according to an appropriate norm for measuring such a difference (e.g., a vector-space distance norm); coefficients of the resulting linear equation may be modified to improve minimization. Linear regression models may include ridge regression methods, where the function to be minimized includes the least-squares function plus term multiplying the square of each coefficient by ascalar amount to penalize large coefficients. Linear regression models may include least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) models, in which ridge regression is combined with multiplying the least-squares term by a factor of 1 divided by double the number of samples. Linear regression models may include a multi-task lasso model wherein the norm applied in the least-squares term of the lasso model is the Frobenius norm amounting to the square root of the sum of squares of all terms. Linear regression models may include the elastic net model, a multitask elastic net model, a least angle regression model, a LARS lasso model, an orthogonal matching pursuit model, a Bayesian regression model, a logistic regression model, a stochastic gradient descent model, a perceptron model, a passive aggressive algorithm, a robustness regression model, a Huber regression model, or any other suitable model that may occur to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure. Linear regression models may be generalized in an embodiment to polynomial regression models, whereby a polynomial equation (e.g., a quadratic, cubic or higher-order equation) providing a best predicted output / actual output fit is sought; similar methods to those described above may be applied to minimize error functions, as will be apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure.

[0067] With continued reference to FIG 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine data extrapolation 136 of execution element 128 using a bootstrap process. In some embodiments, processor 104 may determine execution element 128 from raw data 116 using boot strap process. As used in the current disclosure, a “bootstrap process” is a resampling technique used to estimate the sampling distribution of a statistic or to assess the uncertainty associated with a sample. The bootstrap process may involve generating multiple resamples of the original dataset by randomly sampling with replacement. Each resample is the same size as the original dataset, but some observations may appear multiple times, while others may be left out. This process allows for the creation of a pseudo-population from which statistical estimates can be derived. Once the resamples are obtained, the desired statistic is computed for each resample. This statistic can be a mean, median, standard deviation, correlation coefficient, or any other relevant measure. By repeating this resampling process numerous times (often several thousand), a distribution of the statistic is obtained, known as the bootstrap distribution. In the current case, bootstrap process may begin by generating multiple resamples of the dataset. For example, each resample may consist of paired samples of raw data 116 orexecution element 128 or data extrapolation 136, any other data mentioned herein. These resamples are created by randomly selecting instances from the first and second dataset with replacement, ensuring that both textual and image data are kept together in each resample. For each resample, execution element 128 or data extrapolation 136 pairs are analyzed together to explore the relationship or association between them. Various techniques can be applied based on the specific task or objective. The strength of the relationship or association between raw data 116, execution element 128 or data extrapolation 136 can be assessed by measuring performance metrics or statistical measures. For classification tasks, accuracy, precision, recall, or Fl-score can be computed. Alternatively, correlation coefficients, mutual information, or other statistical measures can be used to quantify the association between the two data types. IF the strength of the relationship or association between raw data 116, execution element 128 or data extrapolation 136 is above a pre-determined threshold then a first association may be created between raw data 116, execution element 128 or data extrapolation 136. The bootstrap process may be repeated multiple times, generating different resamples each time. This repetition allows for the estimation of the variability and uncertainty in the relationship or association metrics. By analyzing the results across the resampled datasets, confidence intervals can be constructed, hypothesis tests can be performed, or stability assessments can be made to evaluate the significance and robustness of the relationship.

[0068] With continued reference to FIG. 1, processor 104 may determine data extrapolation 136 using a Monte Carlo simulation. “Monte Carlo simulation” may refer to a “Monte Carlo method,” “Monte Carlo experiment,” and / or executing a “Monte Carlo algorithm.” A Monte Carlo simulation may be a mathematical technique that may generate variables, numerical values, and the like, for modeling risk, uncertainty, etc. of a certain system using a stochastic simulation process. Monte Carlo simulations may encompass a range of algorithms and mathematical analysis techniques such as Markov Model Monte Carlo (MMMC) simulations, McKean- Vlasov processes, Monte Carlo localization, among other probabilistic heuristics. As used herein, a Monte Carlo simulation may generate random data extrapolation 136, wherein each data extrapolation 136 may represent a sufficiently good solution to an optimization problem, wherein the solution is data extrapolation 136 represented by a numerical value, 2D polar coordinate, vector, matrix, or the like, that represents data extrapolation 136. Each generated data extrapolation 136 may be associated with raw data 116 or execution element 128.And thus, each data extrapolation 136 may have values of data extrapolation 136 to perform a randomly generate data extrapolation 136. Each data extrapolation 136 may then have associated with it a “value of data extrapolation” variable, wherein the value of data extrapolation 136 is a numerical value that represents the data extrapolation 136 for raw data 116 or execution element 128. Data extrapolation 136 can be plotted and / or mapped as a function of their value of data extrapolation 136 and a machine-learning process may select data extrapolation 136 based on some criterion, for instance the data extrapolation 136 with the most minimized value of data extrapolation 136, and select those data extrapolation 136 as inputs to subsequent calculations.

[0069] A Monte Carlo simulation may be a class of computation algorithms used by a machine-learning process that may rely on repeated stochastic sampling to obtain numerical results, for instance generating random spatial locations within a confined space on a map, wherein each spatial location can have a numerical parameter describing it. Monte Carlo simulations may be performed with dynamic systems that may be coupled with an analysis method, for instance an unknown data extrapolation 136 relative to raw data 116 or execution element 128, wherein raw data 116 or execution element 128 is determine by sampling within the simulation. In non-limiting illustrative examples, a machine-learning process, such as but not limited to a supervised machine-learning process, may accept generated candidate solutions from a Monte Carlo simulation, as described above, and calculate refined data extrapolation 136 to the candidate data extrapolation 136, wherein the predicted paths may contain numerical results from the simulated data extrapolation 136. The Monte Carlo simulation may generate many candidate template data extrapolation 136, where a machine-learning process / model may narrow the number of data extrapolation 136 based on raw data 116 or execution element 128. Such a machine-learning process may iteratively generate selected data extrapolation 136 based on a criterion, for instance and without limitation raw data 116 or execution element 128, wherein when it is time for data extrapolation 136 to be used for purposes of generating directed graph 144, a machine-learning process may retrieve data extrapolation 136.

[0070] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in a non-limiting example of generating data extrapolation 136 using Monte Carlo simulator, raw data 116 or execution element 128 may include launching new raw data 116 or execution element 128. Monte Carlo simulator may run a plurality of simulations, with each simulation using a different set of random inputs based on the estimated probability distributions of each variable. For example, and without limitation, theresulted simulation may include a 70% chance that the product will generate a profit of at least $100,000, but may also include a 20% chance that the product will result in a loss of $50,000, or more.

[0071] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may include a machine learning model to improve accuracy of determining optimal decision making parameters. In some embodiments, the machine learning model may be consistent with any machine learning model described in the entirety of this disclosure. In some embodiments, the machine learning model may determine initial set of parameters, where the set of parameter may be initially determined. In some embodiments, the initial set of parameters may be modified using random noise, where the random noise may be added to the parameters to simulate real- world variability. In some embodiments, a range of parameter values may be selected to ensure a broad exploration of the parameter space. In some embodiments, machine learning model may be rerun with the modified parameters to generate a new set of outcomes. In some embodiments, the machine learning model may compare the model result against second set of training data to determine parameter for better accuracy for decision making of apparatus 100. The noise that is introduced may be obtained by modeling a time series of data and finding the expected noise from that data. In some embodiments, the machine learning model may be implemented in Monte Carlo simulator.

[0072] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate or obtain extrapolation training data. For the purposes of this disclosure, “extrapolation training data” is training data that is used to train an extrapolation machinelearning model. In some embodiments, extrapolation training data may include correlations between exemplary execution extrapolations and exemplary data extrapolations. In some embodiments, extrapolation training data may be consistent with any training data described in the entirety of this disclosure. In some embodiments, extrapolation training data may be received from one or more users, graph database 120, external computing devices, and / or previous iterations of processing. As a non-limiting example, extrapolation training data may include instructions from a user, who may be an expert user, a past user in embodiments disclosed herein, or the like, which may be stored in memory and / or stored in graph database 120, where the instructions may include labeling of training examples. In some embodiments, extrapolation training data may be updated iteratively through a feedback loop. As a non-limiting example,extrapolation training data may be updated iteratively through a feedback loop as a function of newly collected raw data 116, execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, output of machinelearning models or classifiers, output of element machine-learning model 148, or the like. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate extrapolation machinelearning model 152. In a non-limiting example, generating extrapolation machine-learning model 152 may include training, retraining, or fine-tuning extrapolation machine-learning model 152 using extrapolation training data or updated extrapolation training data. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine data extrapolation 136 of a plurality of execution elements 128 using extrapolation machine-learning model 152 (i.e. trained or updated extrapolation machine-learning model 152). In a non-limiting example, processor 104 may determine that execution element 128 may deliver monetary value of $300,000 using extrapolation machine-learning model 152. In another non-limiting example, processor 104 may determine that execution element 128 may solve a particular technical problem using extrapolation machine-learning model 152.

[0073] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate a confidence level of data extrapolation 136. For the purposes of this disclosure, a “confidence level” is a representation of a certainty or accuracy of a data extrapolation of an execution element. Confidence level may be expressed as a numerical range. For instance, and without limitation, a confidence level may be represented by a numerical value ranging between 0% and 100%. For example, and without limitation, data extrapolation 136 that includes confidence level of 99% may be considered highly certain and thus reliable. Contrastingly, data extrapolation 136 that includes confidence level of 5% may be considered highly uncertain and thus unreliable. In some embodiments, end user may be stored in graph database 120. In some embodiments, end user may be retrieved from graph database 120. In some embodiments, a user may manually determine end user of a plurality of execution elements 128 or processor 104 may determine end user through the use of machine-learning module or extrapolation machine-learning model 152. In a non-limiting example, processor 104 may compare data extrapolation 136 and exemplary data extrapolations 136 and their exemplary confidence levels and determine confidence level of data extrapolation 136 as a function of the comparison. In another non-limiting example, processor 104 may determine confidence level using scoring algorithms. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate adirected graph 144 as a function of confidence level of data extrapolation 136. As a non-limiting example, processor 104 may generate directed graph using data extrapolation 136 that has exceeded a threshold. The threshold can be generated manually by a user or determined by a processor 104 using a machine-learning module.

[0074] With continued reference to FIG. 1, memory 108 contains instructions configuring processor 104 to generate a directed graph as a function of data extrapolation 136. For the purposes of this disclosure, a “directed graph” is a data structure that models a set of objects and the relationships between them. Directed graph 144 may include nodes or also called vertices. For the purposes of this “nodes” are the units in a directed graph, representing distinct entities or points in the system. Each node can have zero or more directed edges emanating from it. As a non-limiting example, nodes may include execution element 128. For the purposes of this disclosure, “directed edges” are the connections between nodes of a directed graph. As a nonlimiting example, an edge from node A to node B indicates that there is a relationship from A to B. As a non-limiting example, directed edges may include operation datum 132 or any data extrapolation 136 disclosed herein. Directed graph 144 includes an ordered series of a plurality of execution elements 128 connected using at least an operation datum 132. In a non-limiting example, each of plurality of execution elements 128 may be a node of directed graph 144 and operation datum 132 may be an edge of the nodes. As a non-limiting example, processor 104 may generate ordered series of execution elements 128 as a function of weighted value of execution elements 128. For example, and without limitation, processor 104 may order execution elements 128 from the highest weighted value and lowest weighted value or vice versa. As another non-limiting example, processor 104 may generate ordered series of execution elements 128 as a function of confidence level. For example, and without limitation, processor 104 may order execution elements 128 from the highest confidence level and lowest confidence level. In some embodiments, directed graph 144 may be stored in graph database 120. In some embodiments, directed graph 144 may be retrieved from graph database 120. In some embodiments, user may manually generate directed graph 144 or processor 104 may generate directed graph 144 using machine-learning module. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate directed graph 144 using convolutional neural network, stochastic analysis, probabilistic analysis, or the like described in the entirety of this disclosure. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to determine a graph generation algorithm ormachine-learning model to generate directed graph 144. As a non-limiting example, graph generation algorithm may include random graph models, topology -based algorithms, or the like. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to calibrate machine-learning models, algorithms, or neural networks using temperature scaling. For the purposes of this disclosure, “temperature scaling” is a post-processing technique to adjust the output probabilities of a neural network. As a non-limiting example, processor 104 may be configured to train a neural network for a classification task, obtain raw logits from the network for each class, use a validation set to find an optimal temperature scaling factor, and apply the learned scaling factor to the logits during inference to adjust the probabilities.

[0075] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to convert directed graph 144 to linguistic terms 156. For the purposes of this disclosure, a “linguistic term” is a word or a set of words. As a non-limiting example, linguistic terms 156 may include a narrative of directed graph 144, execution element 128 or data extrapolation 136. In some embodiments, a user may manually generate linguistic terms 156. In some embodiments, linguistic terms 156 may be stored in graph database 120. In some embodiments, linguistic terms 156 may be retrieved from graph database 120.

[0076] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to convert directed graph 144 into a plurality of linguistic terms 156 using generative artificial intelligence 160. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to decompose directed graph 144 into text elements. As a non-limiting example, if directed graph 144 includes first execution element and second execution element connected with operation datum 132, directed graph 144 may be broken down to ‘first execution element is connected with second execution element using operation datum 132.’ As another non-limiting example, if directed graph 144 includes second execution element and third execution element connected with operation datum 132, directed graph 144 may be broken down to ‘second execution element does operation datum 132 to do second execution element.’ In some embodiments, user may manually decompose directed graph 144 or processor 104 may decompose directed graph 144 through the use of machine-learning module, language processing module, or the like. In some embodiments, processor 104 may obtain a template from graph database 120 to decompose directed graph 144 to text elements to convert directed graph 144 to linguistic terms 156 using generative Al or LLM.

[0077] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in one or more embodiments, processor 104 may implement one or more aspects of “generative artificial intelligence (Al),” a type of Al that uses machine learning algorithms to create, establish, or otherwise generate data such as, without limitation, linguistic terms and / or the like in any data structure as described herein (e.g., text, image, video, audio, among others) that is similar to one or more provided training examples. In an embodiment, machine learning module described herein may generate one or more generative machine learning models that are trained on one or more set of exemplary linguistic terms. One or more generative machine learning models may be configured to generate new examples that are similar to the training data of the one or more generative machine learning models but are not exact replicas; for instance, and without limitation, data quality or attributes of the generated examples may bear a resemblance to the training data provided to one or more generative machine learning models, wherein the resemblance may pertain to underlying patterns, features, or structures found within the provided training data.

[0078] With reference to FIG. 1, in some cases, generative machine learning models may include one or more generative models. As described herein, “generative models” refers to statistical models of the joint probability distribution P(X, F) on a given observable variable x, representing features or data that can be directly measured or observed (e.g., execution element 128 or directed graph 144) and target variable y, representing the outcomes or labels that one or more generative models aims to predict or generate (e.g., linguistic terms 156). In some cases, generative models may rely on Bayes theorem to find joint probability; for instance, and without limitation, Naive Bayes classifiers may be employed by computing device to categorize input data such as, without limitation, directed graph 144, execution element 128 or data extrapolation 136 into different labels such as, without limitation, linguistic terms 156.

[0079] In a non-limiting example, and with reference to FIG. 1, one or more generative machine learning models may include one or more Naive Bayes classifiers generated, by computing device, using a Naive bayes classification algorithm. In some cases, one or more generative machine learning models may include generative adversarial network (GAN). As used in this disclosure, a “generative adversarial network” is a type of artificial neural network with at least two sub models (e.g., neural networks), a generator, and a discriminator, that compete against each other in a process that ultimately results in the generator learning to generate new data samples, wherein the “generator” is a component of the GAN that learns to createhypothetical data by incorporating feedbacks from the “discriminator” configured to distinguish real data from the hypothetical data. In some cases, generator may learn to make discriminator classify its output as real. In an embodiment, discriminator may include a supervised machine learning model while generator may include an unsupervised machine learning model as described in further detail with reference to FIG. 4.

[0080] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in an embodiment, discriminator may include one or more discriminative models, i.e., models of conditional probability P(K|X = %) of target variable Y, given observed variable X. In an embodiment, discriminative models may learn boundaries between classes or labels in given training data. In a non-limiting example, discriminator may include one or more classifiers as described in further detail below with reference to FIG. 4 to distinguish between different categories similar pair of contradictory terms, or states e.g., TRUE vs. FALSE within the context of generated data such as, without limitations, linguistic terms 156, and / or the like. In some cases, computing device may implement one or more classification algorithms such as, without limitation, Support Vector Machines (SVM), Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, and / or the like to define decision boundaries.

[0081] In a non-limiting example, and with reference to FIG. 1, generator of GAN may be responsible for creating synthetic data that resembles real linguistic terms 156. In some cases, GAN may be configured to receive execution element 128, data extrapolation 136 or directed graph 144 such as, without limitation, products, codes, services, systems, methods or the like, as input and generates corresponding linguistic terms 156 containing information describing or evaluating the performance of one or more execution element 128, data extrapolation 136 or directed graph 144. On the other hand, discriminator of GAN may evaluate the authenticity of the generated content by comparing it to real linguistic terms 156, for example, discriminator may distinguish between genuine and generated content and providing feedback to generator to improve the model performance.

[0082] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in other embodiments, one or more generative models may also include a variational autoencoder (VAE). As used in this disclosure, a “variational autoencoder” is an autoencoder (i.e., an artificial neural network architecture) whose encoding distribution is regularized during the model training process in order to ensure that its latent space includes desired properties allowing new data sample generation. In an embodiment,VAE may include a prior and noise distribution respectively, trained using expectationmaximization meta-algorithms such as, without limitation, probabilistic PCA, sparse coding, among others. In a non-limiting example, VEA may use a neural network as an amortized approach to jointly optimize across input data and output a plurality of parameters for corresponding variational distribution as it maps from a known input space to a low-dimensional latent space. Additionally, or alternatively, VAE may include a second neural network, for example, and without limitation, a decoder, wherein the “decoder” is configured to map from the latent space to the input space.

[0083] In a non-limiting example, and with reference to FIG. 1, VAE may be used by computing device to model complex relationships between execution element 128, data extrapolation 136 or directed graph 144 e. In some cases, VAE may encode input data into a latent space, capturing linguistic terms 156. Such encoding process may include learning one or more probabilistic mappings from observed execution element 128, data extrapolation 136 or directed graph 144 to a lower-dimensional latent representation. Latent representation may then be decoded back into the original data space, therefore reconstructing the execution element 128, data extrapolation 136 or directed graph 144. In some cases, such decoding process may allow VAE to generate new examples or variations that are consistent with the learned distributions.

[0084] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, one or more generative machine learning models may be trained on a plurality of audio or visual data as described herein, wherein the plurality of audio or visual data may provide visual / acoustical information that generative machine learning models analyze to understand the dynamics of image, video, record of call, or the like. In some cases, such data may help generative machine learning models to learn appropriate language and tone for providing linguistic terms 156. Additionally, or alternatively, one or more generative machine learning models may utilize one or more predefined templates representing, for example, and without limitation, correct linguistic terms 156. In some cases, one or more generative machine learning models may also be applied by computing device to edit, modify, or otherwise manipulate existing data or data structures.

[0085] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to converted directed graph 144 to linguistic terms 156 or generate linguistic terms 156 using large language model. Large language model may be a type of generative Al. A “large language model,” as used herein, is a deep learning algorithm that can recognize, summarize,translate, predict and / or generate text and other content based on knowledge gained from massive datasets. LLMs may be trained on large sets of data; for example, training sets may include greater than 1 million words. Training sets may be drawn from diverse sets of data such as, as non-limiting examples, novels, blog posts, articles, emails, and the like. Training sets may include a variety of subject matters, such as, as nonlimiting examples, medical tests, romantic ballads, beat poetry, emails, advertising documents, newspaper articles, and the like. LLMs, in some embodiments, may include GPT, GPT-2, GPT-3, and other language processing models. LLM may be used to augment the text in an article based on a prompt. Training data may correlate elements of a dictionary related to linguistics, as described above, to a prompt. LLM may include a text prediction based algorithm configured to receive an article and apply a probability distribution to the words already typed in a sentence to work out the most likely word to come next in augmented articles. For example, if the words already typed are “Nice to meet,” then it is highly likely that the word “you” will come next. LLM may output such predictions by ranking words by likelihood or a prompt parameter. For the example given above, the LLM may score “you” as the most likely, “your” as the next most likely, “his” or “her” next, and the like.

[0086] With reference to FIG. 1, LLM may include an attention mechanism, utilizing a transformer as described further below. An “attention mechanism,” as used herein, is a part of a neural architecture that enables a system to dynamically highlight relevant features of the input data. In natural language processing this may be a sequence of textual elements. It may be applied directly to the raw input or to its higher-level representation. An attention mechanism may be an improvement to the limitation of the Encoder-Decoder model which encodes the input sequence to one fixed length vector from which to decode the output at each time step. This issue may be seen as a problem when decoding long sequences because it may make it difficult for the neural network to cope with long sentences, such as those that are longer than the sentences in the training corpus. Applying an attention mechanism, LLM may predict the next word by searching for a set of position in a source sentence where the most relevant information is concentrated. LLM may then predict the next word based on context vectors associated with these source positions and all the previous generated target words, such as textual data of a dictionary correlated to a prompt in a training data set. A “context vector,” as used herein, are fixed-length vector representations useful for document retrieval and word sense disambiguation.In some embodiments, LLM may include encoder-decoder model incorporating an attention mechanism.

[0087] With reference to FIG. 1, LLM may include a transformer architecture. In some embodiments, encoder component of LLM may include transformer architecture. A “transformer architecture,” for the purposes of this disclosure is a neural network architecture that uses selfattention and positional encoding. Transformer architecture may be designed to process sequential input data, such as natural language, with applications towards tasks such as translation and text summarization. Transformer architecture may process the entire input all at once. “Positional encoding,” for the purposes of this disclosure, refers to a data processing technique that encodes the location or position of an entity in a sequence. In some embodiments, each position in the sequence may be assigned a unique representation. In some embodiments, positional encoding may include mapping each position in the sequence to a position vector. In some embodiments, trigonometric functions, such as sine and cosine, may be used to determine the values in the position vector. In some embodiments, position vectors for a plurality of positions in a sequence may be assembled into a position matrix, wherein each row of position matrix may represent a position in the sequence.

[0088] With continued reference to FIG. 1, an attention mechanism may represent an improvement over a limitation of the Encoder-Decoder model. The encoder-decider model encodes the input sequence to one fixed length vector from which the output is decoded at each time step. This issue may be seen as a problem when decoding long sequences because it may make it difficult for the neural network to cope with long sentences, such as those that are longer than the sentences in the training corpus. Applying an attention mechanism, LLM may predict the next word by searching for a set of position in a source sentence where the most relevant information is concentrated. LLM may then predict the next word based on context vectors associated with these source positions and all the previous generated target words, such as textual data of a dictionary correlated to a prompt in a training data set. A “context vector,” as used herein, are fixed-length vector representations useful for document retrieval and word sense disambiguation.

[0089] With reference to FIG. 1, an attention mechanism may include generalized attention self-attention, multi-head attention, additive attention, global attention, and the like. In generalized attention, when a sequence of words or an image is fed to LLM, it may verify eachelement of the input sequence and compare it against the output sequence. Each iteration may involve the mechanism’s encoder capturing the input sequence and comparing it with each element of the decoder’s sequence. From the comparison scores, the mechanism may then select the words or parts of the image that it needs to pay attention to. In self-attention, LLM may pick up particular parts at different positions in the input sequence and over time compute an initial composition of the output sequence. In multi-head attention, LLM may include a transformer model of an attention mechanism. Attention mechanisms, as described above, may provide context for any position in the input sequence. For example, if the input data is a natural language sentence, the transformer does not have to process one word at a time. In multi-head attention, computations by LLM may be repeated over several iterations, each computation may form parallel layers known as attention heads. Each separate head may independently pass the input sequence and corresponding output sequence element through a separate head. A final attention score may be produced by combining attention scores at each head so that every nuance of the input sequence is taken into consideration. In additive attention (Bahdanau attention mechanism), LLM may make use of attention alignment scores based on a number of factors. These alignment scores may be calculated at different points in a neural network. Source or input sequence words are correlated with target or output sequence words but not to an exact degree. This correlation may take into account all hidden states and the final alignment score is the summation of the matrix of alignment scores. In global attention (Luong mechanism), in situations where neural machine translations are required, LLM may either attend to all source words or predict the target sentence, thereby attending to a smaller subset of words.

[0090] With continued reference to FIG. 1, multi-headed attention in encoder may apply a specific attention mechanism called self-attention. Self-attention allows the models to associate each word in the input, to other words. So, as a non-limiting example, the LLM may learn to associate the word “you,” with “how” and “are.” It’s also possible that LLM learns that words structured in this pattern are typically a question and to respond appropriately. In some embodiments, to achieve self-attention, input may be fed into three distinct fully connected layers to create query, key, and value vectors. The query, key, and value vectors may be fed through a linear layer; then, the query and key vectors may be multiplies using dot product matrix multiplication in order to produce a score matrix. The score matrix may determine the amount of focus for a word should be put on other words (thus, each word may be a score thatcorresponds to other words in the time-step). The values in score matrix may be scaled down. As a non-limiting example, score matrix may be divided by the square root of the dimension of the query and key vectors. In some embodiments, the softmax of the scaled scores in score matrix may be taken. The output of this softmax function may be called the attention weights. Attention weights may be multiplied by your value vector to obtain an output vector. The output vector may then be fed through a final linear layer.

[0091] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in order to use self-attention in a multi-headed attention computation, query, key, and value may be split into N vectors before applying selfattention. Each self-attention process may be called a “head.” Each head may produce an output vector and each output vector from each head may be concatenated into a single vector. This single vector may then be fed through the final linear layer discussed above. In theory, each head can learn something different from the input, therefore giving the encoder model more representation power.

[0092] With continued reference to FIG. 1, encoder of transformer may include a residual connection. Residual connection may include adding the output from multi-headed attention to the positional input embedding. In some embodiments, the output from residual connection may go through a layer normalization. In some embodiments, the normalized residual output may be projected through a pointwise feed-forward network for further processing. The pointwise feedforward network may include a couple of linear layers with a ReLU activation in between. The output may then be added to the input of the pointwise feed-forward network and further normalized.

[0093] With continued reference to FIG. 1, transformer architecture may include a decoder. Decoder may a multi-headed attention layer, a pointwise feed-forward layer, one or more residual connections, and layer normalization (particularly after each sub-layer), as discussed in more detail above. In some embodiments, decoder may include two multi-headed attention layers. In some embodiments, decoder may be autoregressive. For the purposes of this disclosure, “autoregressive” means that the decoder takes in a list of previous outputs as inputs along with encoder outputs containing attention information from the input.

[0094] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, input to decoder may go through an embedding layer and positional encoding layer in order to obtain positionalembeddings. Decoder may include a fist multi-headed attention layer, wherein the first multiheaded attention layer may receive positional embeddings.

[0095] With continued reference to FIG. 1, first multi-headed attention layer may be configured to not condition to future tokens. As a non-limiting example, when computing attention scores on the word “am,” decoder should not have access to the word “fine” in “I am fine,” because that word is a future word that was generated after. The word “am” should only have access to itself and the words before it. In some embodiments, this may be accomplished by implementing a look-ahead mask. Look ahead mask is a matrix of the same dimensions as the scaled attention score matrix that is filled with “Os” and negative infinities. For example, the top right triangle portion of look-ahead mask may be filed with negative infinities. Look-ahead mask may be added to scaled attention score matrix to obtain a masked score matrix. Masked score matrix may include scaled attention scores in the lower-left triangle of the matrix and negative infinities in the upper-right triangle of the matrix. Then, when the SoftMax of this matrix is taken, the negative infinities will be zeroed out; this leaves “zero” attention scores for “future tokens.”

[0096] With continued reference to FIG. 1, second multi-headed attention layer may use encoder outputs as queries and keys and the outputs from the first multi-headed attention layer as values. This process matches the encoder’s input to the decoder’s input, allowing the decoder to decide which encoder input is relevant to put a focus on. The output from second multi-headed attention layer may be fed through a pointwise feedforward layer for further processing.

[0097] With continued reference to FIG. 1, the output of the pointwise feedforward layer may be fed through a final linear layer. This final linear layer may act as a classifier. This classifier may be as big as the number of classes that you have. For example, if you have 10,000 classes for 10,000 words, the output of that classes will be of size 10,000. The output of this classifier may be fed into a SoftMax layer which may serve to produce probability scores between zero and one. The index may be taken of the highest probability score in order to determine a predicted word.

[0098] With continued reference to FIG. 1, decoder may take this output and add it to the decoder inputs. Decoder may continue decoding until a token is predicted. Decoder may stop decoding once it predicts an end token. In some embodiment, decoder may be stacked N layers high, with each layer taking in inputs from the encoder and layers before it. Stacking layers mayallow LLM to learn to extract and focus on different combinations of attention from its attention heads.

[0099] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, LLM may be specifically trained using large language model (LLM) training data. In some embodiments, LLM training data may include correlations between exemplary directed graphs and exemplary linguistic terms. LLM training data may include correlations between text data representing directed graphs and exemplary linguistic terms. In some embodiments, LLM training data may include a set of data that is in user’s voice, email, or the like to mimic them. In some embodiments, LLM training data may be consistent with any training data described in the entirety of this disclosure. In some embodiments, LLM training data may be received from one or more users, graph database 120, external computing devices, and / or previous iterations of processing. As a nonlimiting example, LLM training data may include instructions from a user, who may be an expert user, a past user in embodiments disclosed herein, or the like, which may be stored in memory and / or stored in graph database 120, where the instructions may include labeling of training examples. In some embodiments, LLM training data may be updated iteratively through a feedback loop. As a non-limiting example, LLM training data may be updated iteratively through a feedback loop as a function of newly collected raw data 116, execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, output of machine-learning models or classifiers, directed graph 144, or the like. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate LLM. In a non-limiting example, generating LLM may include training, retraining, or fine-tuning LLM using LLM training data or updated LLM training data. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to generate linguistic terms 156 using LLM (i.e. trained or updated LLM).

[0100] With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to transmit directed graph 144 and / or linguistic term 156 to remote device 124. In some embodiments, processor 104 may be configured to transmit execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, confidence level, or the like. The remote device disclosed herein is further described above.

[0101] Referring now to FIG. 2, a block diagram of exemplary graph database 120 is illustrated. Graph database 120 may include raw data 116, execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, directed graph 144, linguistic term 156, operation datum 132, execution token datum 140, characteristics of end user, executor of execution element 128, input and / or output ofmachine-learning models disclosed in this disclosure, weighted value, output of AVSR, ASR, OCR, machine vision system, image classifier, element machine-learning model 148, linear regression, bootstrap process, Monte Carlo simulation, extrapolation machine-learning model 152, clustering algorithm, confidence level, or the like.

[0102] Referring to FIG. 3, a chatbot system 300 is schematically illustrated. According to some embodiments, a user interface 304 may be communicative with a computing device 308 (or processor 104) that is configured to operate a chatbot. In some cases, user interface 304 may be local to computing device 308. Alternatively or additionally, in some cases, user interface 304 may remote to computing device 308 and communicative with the computing device 308, by way of one or more networks, such as without limitation the internet. Alternatively or additionally, user interface 304 may communicate with user device 308 using telephonic devices and networks, such as without limitation fax machines, short message service (SMS), or multimedia message service (MMS). Commonly, user interface 304 communicates with computing device 308 using text-based communication, for example without limitation using a character encoding protocol, such as American Standard for Information Interchange (ASCII). Typically, a user interface 304 conversationally interfaces a chatbot, by way of at least a submission 312, from the user interface 308 to the chatbot, and a response 316, from the chatbot to the user interface 304. In many cases, one or both submission 312 and response 316 are textbased communication. Alternatively or additionally, in some cases, one or both of submission 312 and response 316 are audio-based communication.

[0103] Continuing in reference to FIG. 3, a submission 312 once received by computing device 308 operating a chatbot, may be processed by a processor. In some embodiments, processor processes a submission 312 using one or more keyword recognition, pattern matching, and natural language processing. In some embodiments, processor employs real-time learning with evolutionary algorithms. In some cases, processor may retrieve a pre-prepared response from at least a storage component 320, based upon submission 312. Alternatively or additionally, in some embodiments, processor communicates a response 316 without first receiving a submission 312, thereby initiating conversation. In some cases, processor communicates an inquiry to user interface 304; and the processor is configured to process an answer to the inquiry in a following submission 312 from the user interface 304. In some cases, an answer to aninquiry present within a submission 312 from a user device 304 may be used by computing device 308 as an input to another function.

[0104] With continued reference to FIG. 3, a chatbot may be configured to provide a user with a plurality of options as an input into the chatbot. Chatbot entries may include multiple choice, short answer response, true or false responses, and the like. A user may decide on what type of chatbot entries are appropriate. In some embodiments, the chatbot may be configured to allow the user to input a freeform response into the chatbot. The chatbot may then use a decision tree, data base, or other data structure to respond to the users entry into the chatbot as a function of a chatbot input. As used in the current disclosure, “Chatbot input” is any response that a candidate or employer inputs in to a chatbot as a response to a prompt or question.

[0105] With continuing reference to FIG. 3, computing device 308 may be configured to the respond to a chatbot input using a decision tree. A “decision tree,” as used in this disclosure, is a data structure that represents and combines one or more determinations or other computations based on and / or concerning data provided thereto, as well as earlier such determinations or calculations, as nodes of a tree data structure where inputs of some nodes are connected to outputs of others. Decision tree may have at least a root node, or node that receives data input to the decision tree, corresponding to at least a candidate input into a chatbot. Decision tree has at least a terminal node, which may alternatively or additionally be referred to herein as a “leaf node,” corresponding to at least an exit indication; in other words, decision and / or determinations produced by decision tree may be output at the at least a terminal node. Decision tree may include one or more internal nodes, defined as nodes connecting outputs of root nodes to inputs of terminal nodes. Computing device 308 may generate two or more decision trees, which may overlap; for instance, a root node of one tree may connect to and / or receive output from one or more terminal nodes of another tree, intermediate nodes of one tree may be shared with another tree, or the like.

[0106] With continued reference to FIG. 3, computing device 308 may build decision tree by following relational identification; for example, relational indication may specify that a first rule module receives an input from at least a second rule module and generates an output to at least a third rule module, and so forth, which may indicate to computing device 308 an in which such rule modules will be placed in decision tree. Building decision tree may include recursively performing mapping of execution results output by one tree and / or subtree to root nodes ofanother tree and / or subtree, for instance by using such execution results as execution parameters of a subtree. In this manner, computing device 308 may generate connections and / or combinations of one or more trees to one another to define overlaps and / or combinations into larger trees and / or combinations thereof. Such connections and / or combinations may be displayed by visual interface to user, for instance in first view, to enable viewing, editing, selection, and / or deletion by user; connections and / or combinations generated thereby may be highlighted, for instance using a different color, a label, and / or other form of emphasis aiding in identification by a user. In some embodiments, subtrees, previously constructed trees, and / or entire data structures may be represented and / or converted to rule modules, with graphical models representing them, and which may then be used in further iterations or steps of generation of decision tree and / or data structure. Alternatively or additionally subtrees, previously constructed trees, and / or entire data structures may be converted to APIs to interface with further iterations or steps of methods as described in this disclosure. As a further example, such subtrees, previously constructed trees, and / or entire data structures may become remote resources to which further iterations or steps of data structures and / or decision trees may transmit data and from which further iterations or steps of generation of data structure receive data, for instance as part of a decision in a given decision tree node.

[0107] Continuing to refer to FIG. 3, decision tree may incorporate one or more manually entered or otherwise provided decision criteria. Decision tree may incorporate one or more decision criteria using an application programmer interface (API). Decision tree may establish a link to a remote decision module, device, system, or the like. Decision tree may perform one or more database lookups and / or look-up table lookups. Decision tree may include at least a decision calculation module, which may be imported via an API, by incorporation of a program module in source code, executable, or other form, and / or linked to a given node by establishing a communication interface with one or more exterior processes, programs, systems, remote devices, or the like; for instance, where a user operating system has a previously existent calculation and / or decision engine configured to make a decision corresponding to a given node, for instance and without limitation using one or more elements of domain knowledge, by receiving an input and producing an output representing a decision, a node may be configured to provide data to the input and receive the output representing the decision, based upon which the node may perform its decision.

[0108] Referring now to FIG. 4, an exemplary embodiment of a machine-learning module 400 that may perform one or more machine-learning processes as described in this disclosure is illustrated. Machine-learning module may perform determinations, classification, and / or analysis steps, methods, processes, or the like as described in this disclosure using machine-learning processes. A “machine-learning process,” as used in this disclosure, is a process that automatedly uses training data 404 to generate an algorithm instantiated in hardware or software logic, data structures, and / or functions that will be performed by a computing device / module to produce outputs 408 given data provided as inputs 412; this is in contrast to a non-machine-leaming software program where the commands to be executed are determined in advance by a user and written in a programming language.

[0109] With continued reference to FIG. 4, “training data,” as used herein, is data containing correlations that a machine-learning process may use to model relationships between two or more categories of data elements. For instance, and without limitation, training data 404 may include a plurality of data entries, also known as “training examples,” each entry representing a set of data elements that were recorded, received, and / or generated together; data elements may be correlated by shared existence in a given data entry, by proximity in a given data entry, or the like. Multiple data entries in training data 404 may evince one or more trends in correlations between categories of data elements; for instance, and without limitation, a higher value of a first data element belonging to a first category of data element may tend to correlate to a higher value of a second data element belonging to a second category of data element, indicating a possible proportional or other mathematical relationship linking values belonging to the two categories. Multiple categories of data elements may be related in training data 404 according to various correlations; correlations may indicate causative and / or predictive links between categories of data elements, which may be modeled as relationships such as mathematical relationships by machine-learning processes as described in further detail below. Training data 404 may be formatted and / or organized by categories of data elements, for instance by associating data elements with one or more descriptors corresponding to categories of data elements. As a nonlimiting example, training data 404 may include data entered in standardized forms by persons or processes, such that entry of a given data element in a given field in a form may be mapped to one or more descriptors of categories. Elements in training data 404 may be linked to descriptors of categories by tags, tokens, or other data elements; for instance, and without limitation, trainingdata 404 may be provided in fixed-length formats, formats linking positions of data to categories such as comma-separated value (CSV) formats and / or self-describing formats such as extensible markup language (XML), JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), or the like, enabling processes or devices to detect categories of data.

[0110] Alternatively or additionally, and continuing to refer to FIG. 4, training data 404 may include one or more elements that are not categorized; that is, training data 404 may not be formatted or contain descriptors for some elements of data. Machine-learning algorithms and / or other processes may sort training data 404 according to one or more categorizations using, for instance, natural language processing algorithms, tokenization, detection of correlated values in raw data and the like; categories may be generated using correlation and / or other processing algorithms. As a non-limiting example, in a corpus of text, phrases making up a number “n” of compound words, such as nouns modified by other nouns, may be identified according to a statistically significant prevalence of n-grams containing such words in a particular order; such an n-gram may be categorized as an element of language such as a “word” to be tracked similarly to single words, generating a new category as a result of statistical analysis. Similarly, in a data entry including some textual data, a person’s name may be identified by reference to a list, dictionary, or other compendium of terms, permitting ad-hoc categorization by machinelearning algorithms, and / or automated association of data in the data entry with descriptors or into a given format. The ability to categorize data entries automatedly may enable the same training data 404 to be made applicable for two or more distinct machine-learning algorithms as described in further detail below. Training data 404 used by machine-learning module 400 may correlate any input data as described in this disclosure to any output data as described in this disclosure. As a non-limiting illustrative example inputs may include raw data 116, execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, directed graph 144, or the like. As a non -limiting example, outputs may include execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, directed graph 144, linguistic term 156, or the like.[OHl] Further referring to FIG. 4, training data may be filtered, sorted, and / or selected using one or more supervised and / or unsupervised machine-learning processes and / or models as described in further detail below; such models may include without limitation a training data classifier 416. Training data classifier 416 may include a “classifier,” which as used in this disclosure is a machine-learning model as defined below, such as a data structure representingand / or using a mathematical model, neural net, or program generated by a machine-learning algorithm known as a “classification algorithm,” as described in further detail below, that sorts inputs into categories or bins of data, outputting the categories or bins of data and / or labels associated therewith. A classifier may be configured to output at least a datum that labels or otherwise identifies a set of data that are clustered together, found to be close under a distance metric as described below, or the like. A distance metric may include any norm, such as, without limitation, a Pythagorean norm. Machine-learning module 400 may generate a classifier using a classification algorithm, defined as a processes whereby a computing device and / or any module and / or component operating thereon derives a classifier from training data 404. Classification may be performed using, without limitation, linear classifiers such as without limitation logistic regression and / or naive Bayes classifiers, nearest neighbor classifiers such as k-nearest neighbors classifiers, support vector machines, least squares support vector machines, fisher’s linear discriminant, quadratic classifiers, decision trees, boosted trees, random forest classifiers, learning vector quantization, and / or neural network-based classifiers. As a non-limiting example, training data classifier 416 may classify elements of training data to priority groups. For example, and without limitation, priority groups may include critical, high priority, low priority group, or the like. As another non-limiting example, training data classifier 416 may classify elements of training data to labels of feedback data. For example, and without limitation, labels of feedback data may include ‘positive,’ ‘neutral,’ ‘negative,’ or any category of feedback data thereof. As another non-limiting example, training data classifier 416 may classify elements of training data to a plurality of execution elements 128, wherein each of the plurality of execution elements 128 may include different features of raw data 116. For example, and without limitation, different features of raw data 116 may include different features of users, such as but not limited to user’s age, job position, gender, or the like.

[0112] With continued reference to FIG. 4, computing device 404 may be configured to generate a classifier using a Naive Bayes classification algorithm. Naive Bayes classification algorithm generates classifiers by assigning class labels to problem instances, represented as vectors of element values. Class labels are drawn from a finite set. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include generating a family of algorithms that assume that the value of a particular element is independent of the value of any other element, given a class variable. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may be based on Bayes Theorem expressed as P(A / B)= P(B / A)P(A)-^P(B), where P(A / B) is the probability of hypothesis A given data B also known as posterior probability; P(B / A) is the probability of data B given that the hypothesis A was true; P(A) is the probability of hypothesis A being true regardless of data also known as prior probability of A; and P(B) is the probability of the data regardless of the hypothesis. A naive Bayes algorithm may be generated by first transforming training data into a frequency table. Computing device 404 may then calculate a likelihood table by calculating probabilities of different data entries and classification labels. Computing device 404 may utilize a naive Bayes equation to calculate a posterior probability for each class. A class containing the highest posterior probability is the outcome of prediction. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a gaussian model that follows a normal distribution. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a multinomial model that is used for discrete counts. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a Bernoulli model that may be utilized when vectors are binary.

[0113] With continued reference to FIG. 4, computing device 404 may be configured to generate a classifier using a K-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm. A “K-nearest neighbors algorithm” as used in this disclosure, includes a classification method that utilizes feature similarity to analyze how closely out-of-sample- features resemble training data to classify input data to one or more clusters and / or categories of features as represented in training data; this may be performed by representing both training data and input data in vector forms, and using one or more measures of vector similarity to identify classifications within training data, and to determine a classification of input data. K-nearest neighbors algorithm may include specifying a K-value, or a number directing the classifier to select the k most similar entries training data to a given sample, determining the most common classifier of the entries in the database, and classifying the known sample; this may be performed recursively and / or iteratively to generate a classifier that may be used to classify input data as further samples. For instance, an initial set of samples may be performed to cover an initial heuristic and / or “first guess” at an output and / or relationship, which may be seeded, without limitation, using expert input received according to any process as described herein. As a non-limiting example, an initial heuristic may include a ranking of associations between inputs and elements of training data. Heuristic may include selecting some number of highest-ranking associations and / or training data elements.

[0114] With continued reference to FIG. 4, generating k-nearest neighbors algorithm may generate a first vector output containing a data entry cluster, generating a second vector outputcontaining an input data, and calculate the distance between the first vector output and the second vector output using any suitable norm such as cosine similarity, Euclidean distance measurement, or the like. Each vector output may be represented, without limitation, as an n- tuple of values, where n is at least two values. Each value of n-tuple of values may represent a measurement or other quantitative value associated with a given category of data, or attribute, examples of which are provided in further detail below; a vector may be represented, without limitation, in n-dimensional space using an axis per category of value represented in n-tuple of values, such that a vector has a geometric direction characterizing the relative quantities of attributes in the n-tuple as compared to each other. Two vectors may be considered equivalent where their directions, and / or the relative quantities of values within each vector as compared to each other, are the same; thus, as a non-limiting example, a vector represented as [4, 10, 15] may be treated as equivalent, for purposes of this disclosure, as a vector represented as [1, 2, 3], Vectors may be more similar where their directions are more similar, and more different where their directions are more divergent; however, vector similarity may alternatively or additionally be determined using averages of similarities between like attributes, or any other measure of similarity suitable for any n-tuple of values, or aggregation of numerical similarity measures for the purposes of loss functions as described in further detail below. Any vectors as described herein may be scaled, such that each vector represents each attribute along an equivalent scale of values. Each vector may be “normalized,” or divided by a “length” attribute, such as a length attribute I as derived using a Pythagorean norm: I = 7S”=0ai2, where is attribute number z of the vector. Scaling and / or normalization may function to make vector comparison independent of absolute quantities of attributes, while preserving any dependency on similarity of attributes; this may, for instance, be advantageous where cases represented in training data are represented by different quantities of samples, which may result in proportionally equivalent vectors with divergent values.

[0115] With further reference to FIG. 4, training examples for use as training data may be selected from a population of potential examples according to cohorts relevant to an analytical problem to be solved, a classification task, or the like. Alternatively or additionally, training data may be selected to span a set of likely circumstances or inputs for a machine-learning model and / or process to encounter when deployed. For instance, and without limitation, for each category of input data to a machine-learning process or model that may exist in a range of valuesin a population of phenomena such as images, or the like, a computing device, processor, and / or machine-learning model may select training examples representing each possible value on such a range and / or a representative sample of values on such a range. Selection of a representative sample may include selection of training examples in proportions matching a statistically determined and / or predicted distribution of such values according to relative frequency, such that, for instance, values encountered more frequently in a population of data so analyzed are represented by more training examples than values that are encountered less frequently. Alternatively or additionally, a set of training examples may be compared to a collection of representative values in a database and / or presented to a user, so that a process can detect, automatically or via user input, one or more values that are not included in the set of training examples. Computing device, processor, and / or module may automatically generate a missing training example; this may be done by receiving and / or retrieving a missing input and / or output value and correlating the missing input and / or output value with a corresponding output and / or input value collocated in a data record with the retrieved value, provided by a user and / or other device, or the like.

[0116] Continuing to refer to FIG. 4, computer, processor, and / or module may be configured to preprocess training data. “Preprocessing” training data, as used in this disclosure, is transforming training data from raw form to a format that can be used for training a machinelearning model. Preprocessing may include sanitizing, feature selection, feature scaling, data augmentation and the like.

[0117] With continued reference to FIG. 4, computer, processor, and / or module may be configured to sanitize training data. “Sanitizing” training data, as used in this disclosure, is a process whereby training examples are removed that interfere with convergence of a machinelearning model and / or process to a useful result. For instance, and without limitation, a training example may include an input and / or output value that is an outlier from typically encountered values, such that a machine-learning algorithm using the training example will be adapted to an unlikely amount as an input and / or output; a value that is more than a threshold number of standard deviations away from an average, mean, or expected value, for instance, may be eliminated. Alternatively or additionally, one or more training examples may be identified as having poor quality data, where “poor quality” is defined as having a signal to noise ratio below a threshold value. Sanitizing may include steps such as removing duplicative or otherwiseredundant data, interpolating missing data, correcting data errors, standardizing data, identifying outliers, and the like. In a nonlimiting example, santization may include utilizing algorithms for identifying duplicate entries or spell-check algorithms.

[0118] As a non-limiting example, and with further reference to FIG. 4, images used to train an image classifier or other machine-learning model and / or process that takes images as inputs or generates images as outputs may be rejected if image quality is below a threshold value. For instance, and without limitation, computing device, processor, and / or module may perform blur detection, and eliminate one or more Blur detection may be performed, as a non-limiting example, by taking Fourier transform, or an approximation such as a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the image and analyzing a distribution of low and high frequencies in the resulting frequency-domain depiction of the image; numbers of high-frequency values below a threshold level may indicate blurriness. As a further non-limiting example, detection of blurriness may be performed by convolving an image, a channel of an image, or the like with a Laplacian kernel; this may generate a numerical score reflecting a number of rapid changes in intensity shown in the image, such that a high score indicates clarity and a low score indicates blurriness. Blurriness detection may be performed using a gradient-based operator, which measures operators based on the gradient or first derivative of an image, based on the hypothesis that rapid changes indicate sharp edges in the image, and thus are indicative of a lower degree of blurriness. Blur detection may be performed using Wavelet-based operator, which takes advantage of the capability of coefficients of the discrete wavelet transform to describe the frequency and spatial content of images. Blur detection may be performed using statistics-based operators take advantage of several image statistics as texture descriptors in order to compute a focus level. Blur detection may be performed by using discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients in order to compute a focus level of an image from its frequency content.

[0119] Continuing to refer to FIG. 4, computing device, processor, and / or module may be configured to precondition one or more training examples. For instance, and without limitation, where a machine-learning model and / or process has one or more inputs and / or outputs requiring, transmitting, or receiving a certain number of bits, samples, or other units of data, one or more training examples’ elements to be used as or compared to inputs and / or outputs may be modified to have such a number of units of data. For instance, a computing device, processor, and / or module may convert a smaller number of units, such as in a low pixel count image, into a desirednumber of units, for instance by upsampling and interpolating. As a non-limiting example, a low pixel count image may have 100 pixels, however a desired number of pixels may be 128. Processor may interpolate the low pixel count image to convert the 100 pixels into 128 pixels. It should also be noted that one of ordinary skill in the art, upon reading this disclosure, would know the various methods to interpolate a smaller number of data units such as samples, pixels, bits, or the like to a desired number of such units. In some instances, a set of interpolation rules may be trained by sets of highly detailed inputs and / or outputs and corresponding inputs and / or outputs downsampled to smaller numbers of units, and a neural network or other machinelearning model that is trained to predict interpolated pixel values using the training data. As a non-limiting example, a sample input and / or output, such as a sample picture, with sample- expanded data units (e.g. pixels added between the original pixels) may be input to a neural network or machine-learning model and output a pseudo replica sample-picture with dummy values assigned to pixels between the original pixels based on a set of interpolation rules. As a non-limiting example, in the context of an image classifier, a machine-learning model may have a set of interpolation rules trained by sets of highly detailed images and images that have been downsampled to smaller numbers of pixels, and a neural network or other machine-learning model that is trained using those examples to predict interpolated pixel values in a facial picture context. As a result, an input with sample-expanded data units (the ones added between the original data units, with dummy values) may be run through a trained neural network and / or model, which may fill in values to replace the dummy values. Alternatively or additionally, processor, computing device, and / or module may utilize sample expander methods, a low-pass filter, or both. As used in this disclosure, a “low-pass filter” is a filter that passes signals with a frequency lower than a selected cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with frequencies higher than the cutoff frequency. The exact frequency response of the filter depends on the filter design. Computing device, processor, and / or module may use averaging, such as luma or chroma averaging in images, to fill in data units in between original data units.

[0120] In some embodiments, and with continued reference to FIG. 4, computing device, processor, and / or module may down-sample elements of a training example to a desired lower number of data elements. As a non-limiting example, a high pixel count image may have 256 pixels, however a desired number of pixels may be 128. Processor may down-sample the high pixel count image to convert the 256 pixels into 128 pixels. In some embodiments, processormay be configured to perform downsampling on data. Downsampling, also known as decimation, may include removing every Nth entry in a sequence of samples, all but every Nth entry, or the like, which is a process known as “compression,” and may be performed, for instance by an N-sample compressor implemented using hardware or software. Anti-aliasing and / or anti-imaging filters, and / or low-pass filters, may be used to clean up side-effects of compression.

[0121] Further referring to FIG. 4, feature selection includes narrowing and / or filtering training data to exclude features and / or elements, or training data including such elements, that are not relevant to a purpose for which a trained machine-learning model and / or algorithm is being trained, and / or collection of features and / or elements, or training data including such elements, on the basis of relevance or utility for an intended task or purpose for a trained machine-learning model and / or algorithm is being trained. Feature selection may be implemented, without limitation, using any process described in this disclosure, including without limitation using training data classifiers, exclusion of outliers, or the like.

[0122] With continued reference to FIG. 4, feature scaling may include, without limitation, normalization of data entries, which may be accomplished by dividing numerical fields by norms thereof, for instance as performed for vector normalization. Feature scaling may include absolute maximum scaling, wherein each quantitative datum is divided by the maximum absolute value of all quantitative data of a set or subset of quantitative data. Feature scaling may include min-max scaling, in which each value X has a minimum value Xminin a set or subset of values subtracted therefrom, with the result divided by the range of the values, give maximum value in the set or — subset XmaxXnew= - _mm. Feature scaling may include mean normalization, which -niax -min involves use of a mean value of a set and / or subset of values, Xmeanwith maximum andX— x minimum values: Xnew= - ™enn. Feature scaling may include standardization, where a max -min difference between X and Xmeanis divided by a standard deviation a of a set or subset of values: XnewScaling may be performed using a median value of a set or subset Xmedianand / or interquartile range (IQR), which represents the difference between the 25thpercentile value and the 40thpercentile value (or closest values thereto by a rounding protocol), such as: Xnew=X Xmedian. Persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will IQR be aware of various alternative or additional approaches that may be used for feature scaling.

[0123] Further referring to FIG. 4, computing device, processor, and / or module may be configured to perform one or more processes of data augmentation. “Data augmentation” as used in this disclosure is addition of data to a training set using elements and / or entries already in the dataset. Data augmentation may be accomplished, without limitation, using interpolation, generation of modified copies of existing entries and / or examples, and / or one or more generative Al processes, for instance using deep neural networks and / or generative adversarial networks; generative processes may be referred to alternatively in this context as “data synthesis” and as creating “synthetic data.” Augmentation may include performing one or more transformations on data, such as geometric, color space, affine, brightness, cropping, and / or contrast transformations of images.

[0124] With continued reference to FIG. 4, machine-learning module 400 may be configured to perform a lazy-leaming process 420 and / or protocol, which may alternatively be referred to as a “lazy loading” or “call-when-needed” process and / or protocol, may be a process whereby machine-learning is conducted upon receipt of an input to be converted to an output, by combining the input and training set to derive the algorithm to be used to produce the output on demand. For instance, an initial set of simulations may be performed to cover an initial heuristic and / or “first guess” at an output and / or relationship. As a non-limiting example, an initial heuristic may include a ranking of associations between inputs and elements of training data 404. Heuristic may include selecting some number of highest-ranking associations and / or training data 404 elements. Lazy learning may implement any suitable lazy learning algorithm, including without limitation a K-nearest neighbors algorithm, a lazy naive Bayes algorithm, or the like; persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various lazy-leaming algorithms that may be applied to generate outputs as described in this disclosure, including without limitation lazy learning applications of machine-learning algorithms as described in further detail below.

[0125] Alternatively or additionally, and with continued reference to FIG. 4, machinelearning processes as described in this disclosure may be used to generate machine-learning models 424. For instance, and without limitation, a linear regression model, generated using a linear regression algorithm, may compute a linear combination of input data using coefficients derived during machine-learning processes to calculate an output datum. As a further nonlimiting example, a machine-learning model 424 may be generated by creating an artificialneural network, such as a convolutional neural network comprising an input layer of nodes, one or more intermediate layers, and an output layer of nodes. Connections between nodes may be created via the process of "training" the network, in which elements from a training data 404 set are applied to the input nodes, a suitable training algorithm (such as Levenberg-Marquardt, conjugate gradient, simulated annealing, or other algorithms) is then used to adjust the connections and weights between nodes in adjacent layers of the neural network to produce the desired values at the output nodes. This process is sometimes referred to as deep learning.

[0126] With continued reference to FIG. 4, machine-learning algorithms may include at least a supervised machine-learning process 428. At least a supervised machine-learning process 428, as defined herein, include algorithms that receive a training set relating a number of inputs to a number of outputs, and seek to generate one or more data structures representing and / or instantiating one or more mathematical relations relating inputs to outputs, where each of the one or more mathematical relations is optimal according to some criterion specified to the algorithm using some scoring function. For instance, a supervised learning algorithm may include raw data 116, execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, directed graph 144, or the like as inputs and execution element 128, data extrapolation 136, directed graph 144, linguistic term 156, or the like, as outputs, and a scoring function representing a desired form of relationship to be detected between inputs and outputs; scoring function may, for instance, seek to maximize the probability that a given input and / or combination of elements inputs is associated with a given output to minimize the probability that a given input is not associated with a given output. Scoring function may be expressed as a risk function representing an “expected loss” of an algorithm relating inputs to outputs, where loss is computed as an error function representing a degree to which a prediction generated by the relation is incorrect when compared to a given input-output pair provided in training data 404. Persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various possible variations of at least a supervised machine-learning process 428 that may be used to determine relation between inputs and outputs. Supervised machine-learning processes may include classification algorithms as defined above.

[0127] With further reference to FIG. 4, training a supervised machine-learning process may include, without limitation, iteratively updating coefficients, biases, weights based on an error function, expected loss, and / or risk function. For instance, an output generated by a supervised machine-learning model using an input example in a training example may be compared to anoutput example from the training example; an error function may be generated based on the comparison, which may include any error function suitable for use with any machine-learning algorithm described in this disclosure, including a square of a difference between one or more sets of compared values or the like. Such an error function may be used in turn to update one or more weights, biases, coefficients, or other parameters of a machine-learning model through any suitable process including without limitation gradient descent processes, least-squares processes, and / or other processes described in this disclosure. This may be done iteratively and / or recursively to gradually tune such weights, biases, coefficients, or other parameters. Updating may be performed, in neural networks, using one or more back-propagation algorithms. Iterative and / or recursive updates to weights, biases, coefficients, or other parameters as described above may be performed until currently available training data is exhausted and / or until a convergence test is passed, where a “convergence test” is a test for a condition selected as indicating that a model and / or weights, biases, coefficients, or other parameters thereof has reached a degree of accuracy. A convergence test may, for instance, compare a difference between two or more successive errors or error function values, where differences below a threshold amount may be taken to indicate convergence. Alternatively or additionally, one or more errors and / or error function values evaluated in training iterations may be compared to a threshold.

[0128] With continued reference to FIG. 4, a computing device, processor, and / or module may be configured to perform method, method step, sequence of method steps and / or algorithm described in reference to this figure, in any order and with any degree of repetition. For instance, a computing device, processor, and / or module may be configured to perform a single step, sequence and / or algorithm repeatedly until a desired or commanded outcome is achieved; repetition of a step or a sequence of steps may be performed iteratively and / or recursively using outputs of previous repetitions as inputs to subsequent repetitions, aggregating inputs and / or outputs of repetitions to produce an aggregate result, reduction or decrement of one or more variables such as global variables, and / or division of a larger processing task into a set of iteratively addressed smaller processing tasks. A computing device, processor, and / or module may perform any step, sequence of steps, or algorithm in parallel, such as simultaneously and / or substantially simultaneously performing a step two or more times using two or more parallel threads, processor cores, or the like; division of tasks between parallel threads and / or processes may be performed according to any protocol suitable for division of tasks between iterations.Persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various ways in which steps, sequences of steps, processing tasks, and / or data may be subdivided, shared, or otherwise dealt with using iteration, recursion, and / or parallel processing.

[0129] Further referring to FIG. 4, machine-learning processes may include at least an unsupervised machine-learning processes 432. An unsupervised machine-learning process, as used herein, is a process that derives inferences in datasets without regard to labels; as a result, an unsupervised machine-learning process may be free to discover any structure, relationship, and / or correlation provided in the data. Unsupervised processes 432 may not require a response variable; unsupervised processes 432 may be used to find interesting patterns and / or inferences between variables, to determine a degree of correlation between two or more variables, or the like.

[0130] With continued reference to FIG. 4, machine-learning module 400 may be designed and configured to create a machine-learning model 424 using techniques for development of linear regression models. Linear regression models may include ordinary least squares regression, which aims to minimize the square of the difference between predicted outcomes and actual outcomes according to an appropriate norm for measuring such a difference (e.g. a vectorspace distance norm); coefficients of the resulting linear equation may be modified to improve minimization. Linear regression models may include ridge regression methods, where the function to be minimized includes the least-squares function plus term multiplying the square of each coefficient by a scalar amount to penalize large coefficients. Linear regression models may include least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) models, in which ridge regression is combined with multiplying the least-squares term by a factor of 1 divided by double the number of samples. Linear regression models may include a multi-task lasso model wherein the norm applied in the least-squares term of the lasso model is the Frobenius norm amounting to the square root of the sum of squares of all terms. Linear regression models may include the elastic net model, a multi-task elastic net model, a least angle regression model, a LARS lasso model, an orthogonal matching pursuit model, a Bayesian regression model, a logistic regression model, a stochastic gradient descent model, a perceptron model, a passive aggressive algorithm, a robustness regression model, a Huber regression model, or any other suitable model that may occur to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure. Linear regression models may be generalized in an embodiment to polynomial regression models, whereby a polynomial equation (e.g. a quadratic, cubic or higher-order equation) providing abest predicted output / actual output fit is sought; similar methods to those described above may be applied to minimize error functions, as will be apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure.

[0131] Continuing to refer to FIG. 4, machine-learning algorithms may include, without limitation, linear discriminant analysis. Machine-learning algorithm may include quadratic discriminant analysis. Machine-learning algorithms may include kernel ridge regression.

[0160] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, identifying series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 within process data 1024 may include receiving process data 1024. In some embodiments, process data 1024 may be received from a user device 1028. User device 1028 may include, in non-limiting examples, a smartwatch, smartphone, a device for monitoring activity or fitness, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a tablet, an augmented reality device, or a virtual reality device. For example, data on multiple user interactions with user device 1028 may be recorded by user device 1028 and transmitted to computing device 1016. In some embodiments, user inputs into user interface 1032 may indicate which process data should be gathered. For example, a user may indicate a particular email inbox to be monitored for process data 1024. In another example, a user may indicate an external source of process data 1024 to be gathered, such as data from a data store. User interface 1032 may include a graphical user interface (GUI). User interface 1032 may include a touch-screen GUI interface. User interface 1032 may include a computing device configured to receive an input from a user. In some embodiments, an interface may be configured to prompt a user for an input. User interface 1032 may include an input interface, such as a mouse, keyboard, touchscreen, button, lever, scroll wheel, microphone, controller, joystick, or the like. User interface 1032 may include an output interface, such as a screen, speaker, haptic feedback system, or the like.

[0161] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, process data 1024 may be received from data store 1036. In a non-limiting example, processor 1004 may request process data 1024 from data store 1036 using an application programming interface (API), and processor 1004 may receive from the database, or a computing device associated with the database, process data 1024. Database may be implemented, without limitation, as a relational database, a key -value retrieval database such as a NOSQL database, or any other format or structure for use as a database that a person skilled in the art would recognize as suitable upon review of the entirety of this disclosure. Database may alternatively or additionally be implemented using a distributed data storage protocol and / or data structure, such as a distributed hash table or the like. Database may include a plurality of data entries and / or records as described above. Data entries in adatabase may be flagged with or linked to one or more additional elements of information, which may be reflected in data entry cells and / or in linked tables such as tables related by one or more indices in a relational database. Persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various ways in which data entries in a database may store, retrieve, organize, and / or reflect data and / or records as used herein, as well as categories and / or populations of data consistently with this disclosure.

[0162] Still referring to FIG. 10, process data 1024 may be received from several user devices. For example, user devices on which particular software is installed may transmit to computing device 1016 process data 1024 describing user interactions with such software. In another example, data describing user devices which interact with a particular website may be recorded and / or transmitted to computing device 1016. Such a communication may be done by a user device, a computing device associated with such a website, or both. In another example, data describing use of user devices made by a particular manufacturer, and / or including a particular part may be transmitted to computing device 1016.

[0163] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, process data 1024 may include communications between multiple entities. As used herein, an “entity” is a person, a computing device, an organization, another system which may make communications or which communications may be made on behalf of, or a combination of these. Such communications may include text based communications, such as text messages, emails, text sent using a messaging app, or the like. Such communications may include voice based communications, such as phone calls, in person spoken communications, and the like. Voice communications may be recorded using a microphone.

[0164] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, identifying series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 within process data 1024 may include interpreting process data 1024 using a language model. In a non-limiting example, process data 1024 may include many emails, and a language model may be used to interpret individual emails. In another non-limiting example, a spoken conversation, such as a phone call or an in person conversation, may be recorded using a microphone and transcribed using an automatic speech recognition process, and the transcription may be input into a language model. In some embodiments, language model interpretation may be used for grouping of process data 1024 to determine series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020from a larger set of data. In some embodiments, a meaning of language as interpreted by a language model may be included in data within series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020.

[0165] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, a language model may be used to process and / or interpret process data 1024. As used herein, a “language model” is a program capable of interpreting natural language, generating natural language, or both. In some embodiments, a language model may be configured to interpret the output of an automatic speech recognition function and / or an OCR function. A language model may include a neural network. A language model may be trained using a dataset that includes natural language.

[0166] Still referring to FIG. 10, generating language model may include generating a vector space, which may be a collection of vectors, defined as a set of mathematical objects that can be added together under an operation of addition following properties of associativity, commutativity, existence of an identity element, and existence of an inverse element for each vector, and can be multiplied by scalar values under an operation of scalar multiplication compatible with field multiplication, and that has an identity element is distributive with respect to vector addition, and is distributive with respect to field addition. Each vector in an n- dimensional vector space may be represented by an n-tuple of numerical values. Each unique extracted word and / or language element as described above may be represented by a vector of the vector space. In an embodiment, each unique extracted and / or other language element may be represented by a dimension of vector space; as a non-limiting example, each element of a vector may include a number representing an enumeration of co-occurrences of the word and / or language element represented by the vector with another word and / or language element. Vectors may be normalized, scaled according to relative frequencies of appearance and / or file sizes. In an embodiment associating language elements to one another as described above may include computing a degree of vector similarity between a vector representing each language element and a vector representing another language element; vector similarity may be measured according to any norm for proximity and / or similarity of two vectors, including without limitation cosine similarity, which measures the similarity of two vectors by evaluating the cosine of the angle between the vectors, which can be computed using a dot product of the two vectors divided by the lengths of the two vectors. Degree of similarity may include any other geometric measure of distance between vectors.

[0167] Still referring to FIG. 10, processor 1004 may determine one or more language elements in process data 1024 by identifying and / or detecting associations between one or more language elements (including phonemes or phonological elements, morphemes or morphological elements, syntax or syntactic elements, semantics or semantic elements, and pragmatic elements) extracted from at least user data and / or response, including without limitation mathematical associations, between such words. Associations between language elements and relationships of such categories to other such term may include, without limitation, mathematical associations, including without limitation statistical correlations between any language element and any other language element and / or Language elements. Processor 1004 may compare an input such as a sentence from process data 1024 with a list of keywords or a dictionary to identify language elements. For example, processor 1004 may identify whitespace and punctuation in a sentence and extract elements comprising a string of letters, numbers or characters occurring adjacent to the whitespace and punctuation. Processor 1004 may then compare each of these with a list of keywords or a dictionary. Based on the determined keywords or meanings associated with each of the strings, processor 1004 may determine an association between one or more of the extracted strings and a feature of an occurrence, such as an association between a message containing the words “disappointing” and “efficacy” and poor results in an experiment to determine the efficacy of a drug. Associations may take the form of statistical correlations and / or mathematical associations, which may include probabilistic formulas or relationships indicating, for instance, a likelihood that a given extracted word indicates a given category of semantic meaning. As a further example, statistical correlations and / or mathematical associations may include probabilistic formulas or relationships indicating a positive and / or negative association between at least an extracted word and / or a given semantic meaning; positive or negative indication may include an indication that a given document is or is not indicating a category semantic meaning. Whether a phrase, sentence, word, or other textual element in a document or corpus of documents constitutes a positive or negative indicator may be determined, in an embodiment, by mathematical associations between detected words, comparisons to phrases and / or words indicating positive and / or negative indicators that are stored in memory.

[0168] Still referring to FIG. 10, processor 1004 may be configured to determine one or more language elements in process data 1024 using machine learning. For example, processor 1004 may generate the language processing model by any suitable method, including withoutlimitation a natural language processing classification algorithm; language processing model may include a natural language process classification model that enumerates and / or derives statistical relationships between input terms and output terms. An algorithm to generate language processing model may include a stochastic gradient descent algorithm, which may include a method that iteratively optimizes an objective function, such as an objective function representing a statistical estimation of relationships between terms, including relationships between input language elements and output patterns or conversational styles in the form of a sum of relationships to be estimated. In an alternative or additional approach, sequential tokens may be modeled as chains, serving as the observations in a Hidden Markov Model (HMM). HMMs as used herein are statistical models with inference algorithms that that may be applied to the models. In such models, a hidden state to be estimated may include an association between an extracted word, phrase, and / or other semantic unit. There may be a finite number of categories to which an extracted word may pertain; an HMM inference algorithm, such as the forwardbackward algorithm or the Viterbi algorithm, may be used to estimate the most likely discrete state given a word or sequence of words. Language processing module may combine two or more approaches. For instance, and without limitation, machine-learning program may use a combination of Naive-Bayes (NB), Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), and parameter gridsearching classification techniques; the result may include a classification algorithm that returns ranked associations.

[0169] Still referring to FIG. 10, processor 1004 may be configured to determine one or more language elements in process data 1024 using machine learning by first creating or receiving language classification training data. Training data may include data containing correlations that a machine-learning process may use to model relationships between two or more categories of data elements. For instance, and without limitation, training data may include a plurality of data entries, each entry representing a set of data elements that were recorded, received, and / or generated together; data elements may be correlated by shared existence in a given data entry, by proximity in a given data entry, or the like. Multiple data entries in training data may evince one or more trends in correlations between categories of data elements; for instance, and without limitation, a higher value of a first data element belonging to a first category of data element may tend to correlate to a higher value of a second data element belonging to a second category of data element, indicating a possible proportional or othermathematical relationship linking values belonging to the two categories. Multiple categories of data elements may be related in training data according to various correlations; correlations may indicate causative and / or predictive links between categories of data elements, which may be modeled as relationships such as mathematical relationships by machine-learning processes as described in further detail below. Training data may be formatted and / or organized by categories of data elements, for instance by associating data elements with one or more descriptors corresponding to categories of data elements. As a non-limiting example, training data may include data entered in standardized forms by persons or processes, such that entry of a given data element in a given field in a form may be mapped to one or more descriptors of categories. Elements in training data may be linked to descriptors of categories by tags, tokens, or other data elements; for instance, and without limitation, training data may be provided in fixed-length formats, formats linking positions of data to categories such as comma-separated value (CSV) formats and / or self-describing formats such as extensible markup language (XML), JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), or the like, enabling processes or devices to detect categories of data.

[0170] Still referring to FIG. 10, training data may include one or more elements that are not categorized; that is, training data may not be formatted or contain descriptors for some elements of data. Machine-learning algorithms and / or other processes may sort training data according to one or more categorizations using, for instance, natural language processing algorithms, tokenization, detection of correlated values in raw data and the like; categories may be generated using correlation and / or other processing algorithms. As a non-limiting example, in a corpus of text, phrases making up a number “n” of compound words, such as nouns modified by other nouns, may be identified according to a statistically significant prevalence of n-grams containing such words in a particular order; such an n-gram may be categorized as an element of language such as a “word” to be tracked similarly to single words, generating a new category as a result of statistical analysis. Similarly, in a data entry including some textual data, a person’s name may be identified by reference to a list, dictionary, or other compendium of terms, permitting ad-hoc categorization by machine-learning algorithms, and / or automated association of data in the data entry with descriptors or into a given format. The ability to categorize data entries automatedly may enable the same training data to be made applicable for two or more distinct machinelearning algorithms as described in further detail below.

[0171] Still referring to FIG. 10, language classification training data may be a training data set containing associations between language element inputs and associated language element outputs. Language element inputs and outputs may be categorized by communication form such as written language elements, spoken language elements, typed language elements, or language elements communicated in any suitable manner. Language elements may be categorized by component type, such as phonemes or phonological elements, morphemes or morphological elements, syntax or syntactic elements, semantics or semantic elements, and pragmatic elements. Associations may be made between similar communication types of language elements (e.g. associating one written language element with another written language element) or different language elements (e.g. associating a spoken language element with a written representation of the same language element). Associations may be identified between similar communication types of two different language elements, for example written input consisting of the syntactic element “that” may be associated with written phonemes / th / , / a / , and / t / . Associations may be identified between different communication forms of different language elements. For example, the spoken form of the syntactic element “that” and the associated written phonemes above. Language classification training data may be created using a classifier such as a language classifier. An exemplary classifier may be created, instantiated, and / or run using processor 1004, or another computing device. Language classification training data may create associations between any type of language element in any format and other type of language element in any format. Additionally, or alternatively, language classification training data may associate language element input data to a feature related to an occurrence. For example, language classification training data may associate occurrences of the syntactic elements “system,” and “crashed,” in a single sentence with a computing device crashing.

[0172] Still referring to FIG. 10, processor 1004 may be configured to generate a classifier using a Naive Bayes classification algorithm. Naive Bayes classification algorithm generates classifiers by assigning class labels to problem instances, represented as vectors of element values. Class labels are drawn from a finite set. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include generating a family of algorithms that assume that the value of a particular element is independent of the value of any other element, given a class variable. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may be based on Bayes Theorem expressed as P(A / B)= P(B / A) P(A)-^P(B), where P(A / B) is the probability of hypothesis A given data B also known as posterior probability;P(B / A) is the probability of data B given that the hypothesis A was true; P(A) is the probability of hypothesis A being true regardless of data also known as prior probability of A; and P(B) is the probability of the data regardless of the hypothesis. A naive Bayes algorithm may be generated by first transforming training data into a frequency table. Processor 1004 may then calculate a likelihood table by calculating probabilities of different data entries and classification labels. Processor 1004 may utilize a naive Bayes equation to calculate a posterior probability for each class. A class containing the highest posterior probability is the outcome of prediction. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a gaussian model that follows a normal distribution. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a multinomial model that is used for discrete counts. Naive Bayes classification algorithm may include a Bernoulli model that may be utilized when vectors are binary.

[0173] Still referring to FIG. 10, processor 1004 may be configured to generate a classifier using a K-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm. A “K-nearest neighbors algorithm” as used in this disclosure, includes a classification method that utilizes feature similarity to analyze how closely out-of-sample-features resemble training data to classify input data to one or more clusters and / or categories of features as represented in training data; this may be performed by representing both training data and input data in vector forms, and using one or more measures of vector similarity to identify classifications within training data, and to determine a classification of input data. K-nearest neighbors algorithm may include specifying a K-value, or a number directing the classifier to select the k most similar entries training data to a given sample, determining the most common classifier of the entries in the database, and classifying the known sample; this may be performed recursively and / or iteratively to generate a classifier that may be used to classify input data as further samples. For instance, an initial set of samples may be performed to cover an initial heuristic and / or “first guess” at an output and / or relationship, which may be seeded, without limitation, using expert input received according to any process as described herein. As a non-limiting example, an initial heuristic may include a ranking of associations between inputs and elements of training data. Heuristic may include selecting some number of highest-ranking associations and / or training data elements.

[0174] Still referring to FIG. 10, generating k-nearest neighbors algorithm may generate a first vector output containing a data entry cluster, generating a second vector output containing an input data, and calculate the distance between the first vector output and the second vectoroutput using any suitable norm such as cosine similarity, Euclidean distance measurement, or the like. Each vector output may be represented, without limitation, as an n-tuple of values, where n is at least two values. Each value of n-tuple of values may represent a measurement or other quantitative value associated with a given category of data, or attribute, examples of which are provided in further detail below; a vector may be represented, without limitation, in n- dimensional space using an axis per category of value represented in n-tuple of values, such that a vector has a geometric direction characterizing the relative quantities of attributes in the n-tuple as compared to each other. Two vectors may be considered equivalent where their directions, and / or the relative quantities of values within each vector as compared to each other, are the same; thus, as a non-limiting example, a vector represented as [5, 10, 15] may be treated as equivalent, for purposes of this disclosure, as a vector represented as [1, 2, 3], Vectors may be more similar where their directions are more similar, and more different where their directions are more divergent; however, vector similarity may alternatively or additionally be determined using averages of similarities between like attributes, or any other measure of similarity suitable for any n-tuple of values, or aggregation of numerical similarity measures for the purposes of loss functions as described in further detail below. Any vectors as described herein may be scaled, such that each vector represents each attribute along an equivalent scale of values. Each vector may be “normalized,” or divided by a “length” attribute, such as a length attribute I as derived using a Pythagorean norm: I = 7S”=0ai2, where is attribute number z of the vector. Scaling and / or normalization may function to make vector comparison independent of absolute quantities of attributes, while preserving any dependency on similarity of attributes; this may, for instance, be advantageous where cases represented in training data are represented by different quantities of samples, which may result in proportionally equivalent vectors with divergent values.

[0175] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, a datum such as process data 1024 may be converted into a different form. Data formats may be converted in a variety of ways, such as without limitation, using a speech to text function or using optical character recognition. In some embodiments, a datum such as process data 1024 may be converted into a different form such that it is in a form appropriate for input into a function. As a non-limiting example, a language model may only accept inputs in a particular format, and process data 1024 may be converted into that format such that it may be effectively input into the language model.

[0176] Still referring to FIG. 10, data may also be altered such that it retains the same format but is more likely to produce successful or relevant results. As a non-limiting example, a machine learning model may be used to replace obscure words in a text file with more common words that have similar or identical meanings. In this example, this may be done by training a machine learning model on samples of text using unsupervised learning such that the machine learning model learns associations between words (such as based on how frequently they are used together). In this example, words may be represented as vectors with dimensions indicating their relationship to other words, and whether words are synonyms may be determined based on how similar their vectors are (as in, if vectors representing 2 words point in the same direction, those words may be synonyms). In this example, a first word determined to be similar to or a synonym of a second word, may be replaced by the second word.

[0177] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, process data 1024 may be processed using automatic speech recognition. In some embodiments, automatic speech recognition may require training (i.e., enrollment). In some cases, training an automatic speech recognition model may require an individual speaker to read text or isolated vocabulary. In some cases, training data may include an audio component having an audible verbal content, the contents of which are known a priori by a computing device. Computing device may then train an automatic speech recognition model according to training data which includes audible verbal content correlated to known content. In this way, computing device may analyze a person's specific voice and train an automatic speech recognition model to the person's speech, resulting in increased accuracy. Alternatively, or additionally, in some cases, computing device may include an automatic speech recognition model that is speaker independent. As used in this disclosure, a “speaker independent” automatic speech recognition process is an automatic speech recognition process that does not require training for each individual speaker. Conversely, as used in this disclosure, automatic speech recognition processes that employ individual speaker specific training are “speaker dependent.”

[0178] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may perform voice recognition or speaker identification. As used in this disclosure, “voice recognition” is a process of identifying a speaker, from audio content, rather than what the speaker is saying. In some cases, computing device may first recognize a speaker of verbal audio content and then automatically recognize speech of the speaker, for example by way of aspeaker dependent automatic speech recognition model or process. In some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process can be used to authenticate or verify an identity of a speaker. In some cases, a speaker may or may not include subject. For example, subject may speak within process data 1024, but others may speak as well.

[0179] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may include one or all of acoustic modeling, language modeling, and statistically based speech recognition algorithms. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may employ hidden Markov models (HMMs). As discussed in greater detail below, language modeling such as that employed in natural language processing applications like document classification or statistical machine translation, may also be employed by an automatic speech recognition process.

[0180] Still referring to FIG. 10, an exemplary algorithm employed in automatic speech recognition may include or even be based upon hidden Markov models. Hidden Markov models (HMMs) may include statistical models that output a sequence of symbols or quantities. HMMs can be used in speech recognition because a speech signal can be viewed as a piecewise stationary signal or a short-time stationary signal. For example, over a short time scale (e.g., 10 milliseconds), speech can be approximated as a stationary process. Speech (i.e., audible verbal content) can be understood as a Markov model for many stochastic purposes.

[0181] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments HMMs can be trained automatically and may be relatively simple and computationally feasible to use. In an exemplary automatic speech recognition process, a hidden Markov model may output a sequence of n-dimensional real -valued vectors (with n being a small integer, such as 10), at a rate of about one vector every 10 milliseconds. Vectors may consist of cepstral coefficients. A cepstral coefficient requires using a spectral domain. Cepstral coefficients may be obtained by taking a Fourier transform of a short time window of speech yielding a spectrum, decorrelating the spectrum using a cosine transform, and taking first (i.e., most significant) coefficients. In some cases, an HMM may have in each state a statistical distribution that is a mixture of diagonal covariance Gaussians, yielding a likelihood for each observed vector. In some cases, each word, or phoneme, may have a different output distribution; an HMM for a sequence of words or phonemes may be made by concatenating an HMMs for separate words and phonemes.

[0182] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may use various combinations of a number of techniques in order to improve results. In some cases, a large- vocabulary automatic speech recognition process may include context dependency for phonemes. For example, in some cases, phonemes with different left and right context may have different realizations as HMM states. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use cepstral normalization to normalize for different speakers and recording conditions. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use vocal tract length normalization (VTLN) for male-female normalization and maximum likelihood linear regression (MLLR) for more general speaker adaptation. In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may determine so-called delta and delta-delta coefficients to capture speech dynamics and might use heteroscedastic linear discriminant analysis (HLDA). In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use splicing and a linear discriminate analysis (LDA)- based projection, which may include heteroscedastic linear discriminant analysis or a global semi-tied covariance transform (also known as maximum likelihood linear transform [MLLT]). In some cases, an automatic speech recognition process may use discriminative training techniques, which may dispense with a purely statistical approach to HMM parameter estimation and instead optimize some classification-related measure of training data; examples may include maximum mutual information (MMI), minimum classification error (MCE), and minimum phone error (MPE).

[0183] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may be said to decode speech (i.e., audible verbal content). Decoding of speech may occur when an automatic speech recognition system is presented with a new utterance and must compute a most likely sentence. In some cases, speech decoding may include a Viterbi algorithm. A Viterbi algorithm may include a dynamic programming algorithm for obtaining a maximum a posteriori probability estimate of a most likely sequence of hidden states (i.e., Viterbi path) that results in a sequence of observed events. Viterbi algorithms may be employed in context of Markov information sources and hidden Markov models. A Viterbi algorithm may be used to find a best path, for example using a dynamically created combination hidden Markov model, having both acoustic and language model information, using a statically created combination hidden Markov model (e.g., finite state transducer [FST] approach).

[0184] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, speech (i.e., audible verbal content) decoding may include considering a set of good candidates and not only a best candidate, when presented with a new utterance. In some cases, a better scoring function (i.e., re-scoring) may be used to rate each of a set of good candidates, allowing selection of a best candidate according to this refined score. In some cases, a set of candidates can be kept either as a list (i.e., N-best list approach) or as a subset of models (i.e., a lattice). In some cases, re-scoring may be performed by optimizing Bayes risk (or an approximation thereof). In some cases, re-scoring may include optimizing for sentence (including keywords) that minimizes an expectancy of a given loss function with regards to all possible transcriptions. For example, re-scoring may allow selection of a sentence that minimizes an average distance to other possible sentences weighted by their estimated probability. In some cases, an employed loss function may include Levenshtein distance, although different distance calculations may be performed, for instance for specific tasks. In some cases, a set of candidates may be pruned to maintain tractability.

[0185] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may employ dynamic time warping (DTW)-based approaches. Dynamic time warping may include algorithms for measuring similarity between two sequences, which may vary in time or speed. For instance, similarities in walking patterns would be detected, even if in one video the person was walking slowly and if in another he or she were walking more quickly, or even if there were accelerations and deceleration during the course of one observation. DTW has been applied to video, audio, and graphics - indeed, any data that can be turned into a linear representation can be analyzed with DTW. In some cases, DTW may be used by an automatic speech recognition process to cope with different speaking (i.e., audible verbal content) speeds. In some cases, DTW may allow computing device to find an optimal match between two given sequences (e.g., time series) with certain restrictions. That is, in some cases, sequences can be "warped" non-linearly to match each other. In some cases, a DTW -based sequence alignment method may be used in context of hidden Markov models.

[0186] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, an automatic speech recognition process may include a neural network. Neural network may include any neural network, for example those disclosed with reference to FIGs. 2-4. In some cases, neural networks may be used for automatic speech recognition, including phoneme classification, phoneme classification through multi-objective evolutionary algorithms, isolated word recognition, audiovisual speechrecognition, audiovisual speaker recognition and speaker adaptation. In some cases, neural networks employed in automatic speech recognition may make fewer explicit assumptions about feature statistical properties than HMMs and therefore may have several qualities making them attractive recognition models for speech recognition. When used to estimate the probabilities of a speech feature segment, neural networks may allow discriminative training in a natural and efficient manner. In some cases, neural networks may be used to effectively classify audible verbal content over short-time interval, for instance such as individual phonemes and isolated words. In some embodiments, a neural network may be employed by automatic speech recognition processes for pre-processing, feature transformation and / or dimensionality reduction, for example prior to HMM-based recognition. In some embodiments, long short-term memory (LSTM) and related recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and Time Delay Neural Networks (TDNN's) may be used for automatic speech recognition, for example over longer time intervals for continuous speech recognition.

[0187] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may identify series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 from a larger set of process data 1024. Several methods may be used to identify series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020. For example, data associated with a particular user, a particular device, or the like may be grouped to form series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020. This may include data on a particular device interacting with a particular website multiple times, data on multiple communications with the same individual, or the like. In some embodiments, multiple instances of communication between the same individuals or entities occur over different communication channels, and they may be grouped into a single series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020. For example, a first communication between the same individuals may include email, a second communication may include a phone call, and a third communication may include a video call, and each of these communications may be grouped into a series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020. In another example, multiple communications involving different representatives of the same entity may be grouped. In another example, the meaning of a communication may be used to group process data 1024 into series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020. For example, a user may receive an update from a first person and seek advice on the matter from a second person, and a language model may determine that they are part of the same group based on the similarity of the topics discussed. In another example, series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may be identified by a user and / or a user may input rules foridentifying series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020. In another example, series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 may be identified based on repetition. For example, series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 may include multiple instances of the same set of data, such as numbers of users using a particular software daily over a year.

[0188] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 is configured to determine a plurality of characteristic features 10040 corresponding to occurrences in series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020. As used herein, a “characteristic feature” is a grouping of an occurrence, a series of nonadjacent occurrences, or both, into a category. For example, several occurrences may be grouped based on a degree of similarity of a language model output based on transcripts of the occurrences. In another example, occurrences may be grouped based on similarities between status updates in design of a machine, software, or the like. Elements of data such as metrics used to identify a status of a project, and language model interpretations of communications regarding project status, may be included. In another example, occurrences may be grouped based on similarities between user interactions with a particular machine, software, or the like. For example, apparatus 1000 may use an algorithm described below to identify multiple users as engaging in similar use patterns.

[0189] Still referring to FIG. 10, apparatus 1000 may determine a plurality of characteristic features 10040 using feature learning algorithm 10044. A feature learning algorithm may include an unsupervised machine learning model. In some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may generate an unsupervised machine learning model as a function of the feature learning algorithm; and determine the plurality of characteristic features using the unsupervised machine learning model. In some embodiments, a feature learning algorithm may include K-means clustering. In some embodiments, feature learning algorithm 10044 may be used to identify a cluster to which an occurrence and / or a series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 belongs. In some embodiments, feature learning algorithm 10044 may be used to classify an occurrence and / or a series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020, such as by classifying an occurrence as belonging to a particular cluster.

[0190] Still referring to FIG. 10, “feature learning algorithm,” as used herein, is a machinelearning algorithm that identifies associations between elements of data in a data set where particular inputs, particular outputs, or both are not specified. Such a data set may include, in a non-limiting example, a training data set. For instance, and without limitation, a feature learningalgorithm may detect co-occurrences of sets of individual occurrences and / or series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020, with each other. Computing device may perform a feature learning algorithm by dividing occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 from a given individual, entity, or the like into various sub-combinations of such data to create occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 sets, and evaluate which occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 sets tend to co-occur with which other occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 sets; for instance, computing device may divide each set of occurrences into individual occurrences and evaluate which individual occurrences and / or combinations thereof tend to co-occur with which other individual occurrences, and / or other occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020. In an embodiment, first feature learning algorithm may perform clustering of data.

[0191] Still referring to FIG. 10, a feature learning and / or clustering algorithm may be implemented, as a non-limiting example, using a k-means clustering algorithm. A “k-means clustering algorithm” as used in this disclosure, includes cluster analysis that partitions n observations or unclassified cluster data entries into k clusters in which each observation or unclassified cluster data entry belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean. “Cluster analysis” as used in this disclosure, includes grouping a set of observations or data entries in way that observations or data entries in the same group or cluster are more similar to each other than to those in other groups or clusters. Cluster analysis may be performed by various cluster models that include connectivity models such as hierarchical clustering, centroid models such as k- means, distribution models such as multivariate normal distribution, density models such as density -based spatial clustering of applications with nose (DBSCAN) and ordering points to identify the clustering structure (OPTICS), subspace models such as biclustering, group models, graph-based models such as a clique, signed graph models, neural models, and the like. Cluster analysis may include hard clustering whereby each observation or unclassified cluster data entry belongs to a cluster or not. Cluster analysis may include soft clustering or fuzzy clustering whereby each observation or unclassified cluster data entry belongs to each cluster to a certain degree such as for example a likelihood of belonging to a cluster. Cluster analysis may include strict partitioning clustering whereby each observation or unclassified cluster data entry belongs to exactly one cluster. Cluster analysis may include strict partitioning clustering with outliers whereby observations or unclassified cluster data entries may belong to no cluster and may beconsidered outliers. Cluster analysis may include overlapping clustering whereby observations or unclassified cluster data entries may belong to more than one cluster. Cluster analysis may include hierarchical clustering whereby observations or unclassified cluster data entries that belong to a child cluster also belong to a parent cluster.

[0192] Still referring to FIG. 10, computing device may generate a k-means clustering algorithm receiving unclassified occurrences of series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 and outputs a definite number of classified data entry clusters wherein the data entry clusters each contain cluster data entries. K-means algorithm may select a specific number of groups or clusters to output, identified by a variable “k.” Generating a k-means clustering algorithm includes assigning inputs containing unclassified data to a “k-group” or “k-cluster” based on feature similarity. Centroids of k-groups or k-clusters may be utilized to generate classified data entry cluster. K-means clustering algorithm may select and / or be provided “k” variable by calculating k-means clustering algorithm for a range of k values and comparing results. K- means clustering algorithm may compare results across different values of k as the mean distance between cluster data entries and cluster centroid. K-means clustering algorithm may calculate mean distance to a centroid as a function of k value, and the location of where the rate of decrease starts to sharply shift, this may be utilized to select a k value. Centroids of k-groups or k-cluster include a collection of feature values which are utilized to classify data entry clusters containing cluster data entries. K-means clustering algorithm may act to identify clusters of closely related occurrences of series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020, which may be provided with user cohort labels; this may, for instance, generate an initial set of user cohort labels from an initial set of occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 of a large number of users, and may also, upon subsequent iterations, identify new clusters to be provided new user cohort labels, to which additional occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may be classified, or to which previously used occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may be reclassified.

[0193] Still referring to FIG. 10, generating a k-means clustering algorithm may include generating initial estimates for k centroids which may be randomly generated or randomly selected from unclassified data input. K centroids may be utilized to define one or more clusters. K-means clustering algorithm may assign unclassified data to one or more k-centroids based on the squared Euclidean distance by first performing a data assigned step of unclassified data. K-means clustering algorithm may assign unclassified data to its nearest centroid based on the collection of centroids ci of centroids in set C. Unclassified data may be assigned to a cluster based on argminci 3 cdist ci, x)2, where argmin includes argument of the minimum, ci includes a collection of centroids in a set C, and dist includes standard Euclidean distance. K- means clustering module may then recompute centroids by taking mean of all cluster data entries assigned to a centroid’s cluster. This may be calculated based on ci = l / |Si | £ xi 3 SiXl. K- means clustering algorithm may continue to repeat these calculations until a stopping criterion has been satisfied such as when cluster data entries do not change clusters, the sum of the distances have been minimized, and / or some maximum number of iterations has been reached.

[0194] Still referring to FIG. 10, k-means clustering algorithm may be configured to calculate a degree of similarity index value. A “degree of similarity index value” as used in this disclosure, includes a distance measurement indicating a measurement between each data entry cluster generated by k-means clustering algorithm and a selected occurrences of series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 set. Degree of similarity index value may indicate how close a particular combination of occurrences is to being classified by k-means algorithm to a particular cluster. K-means clustering algorithm may evaluate the distances of the combination of occurrences to the k-number of clusters output by k-means clustering algorithm. Short distances between a set of occurrences of series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 and a cluster may indicate a higher degree of similarity between the set of occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 and a particular cluster. Longer distances between a set of occurrences and a cluster may indicate a lower degree of similarity between occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 set and a particular cluster.

[0195] Still referring to FIG. 10, k-means clustering algorithm selects a classified data entry cluster as a function of the degree of similarity index value. In an embodiment, k-means clustering algorithm may select a classified data entry cluster with the smallest degree of similarity index value indicating a high degree of similarity between occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 set and the data entry cluster. Alternatively, or additionally k- means clustering algorithm may select a plurality of clusters having low degree of similarity index values to occurrences of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 sets, indicative of greater degrees of similarity. Degree of similarity index values may be compared to a threshold number indicating a minimal degree of relatedness suitable for inclusion of a set of occurrences of seriesof nonadj acent occurrences 1020 in a cluster, where degree of similarity indices a-n falling under the threshold number may be included as indicative of high degrees of relatedness. The abovedescribed illustration of feature learning using k-means clustering is included for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting potential implementation of feature learning algorithms; persons skilled in the art, upon reviewing the entirety of this disclosure, will be aware of various additional or alternative feature learning approaches that may be used consistently with this disclosure.

[0196] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, feature learning algorithm 10044 may use a tensor such as a matrix as an input. For example, a matrix may include columns for time, event type, event participants, medium of communication, and / or other variables, and a feature learning algorithm may use as inputs rows of data from such a matrix. In another example, tensor clustering, such as biclustering, may be used.

[0197] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, selection of feature learning algorithm 10044 and / or implementation of feature learning algorithm 10044 may be optimized. For example, in some embodiments, a k-means clustering algorithm may produce suboptimal results when an incorrect number of centroids is selected, when data clusters are not isotropically distributed, when data clusters do not have equal variance, and / or when data clusters do not contain equal numbers of data points. In some embodiments, feature learning algorithm 10044 may be applied multiple times, using different parameters, such as differing numbers of centroids in a k-means clustering algorithm. In some embodiments, a transformation may be applied to data to produce more isotropically distributed clusters.

[0198] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, a neural network may be used for feature learning. For example, an unsupervised neural network may be used to cluster occurrences and / or series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020.

[0199] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 is configured to generate a plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 as a function of plurality of characteristic features 10040. As used herein, a “projected occurrence” is an event which may occur in the future, an assessment of such an event, outcome of such an event, or combinations thereof. Such an assessment may include, in non-limiting examples, an assessment of a likelihood of a projected occurrence, and / or a desirability of a projected occurrence. In an example, series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 may include updates on aspects or stages ofsoftware development, and plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 may include several potential scenarios as to the number of daily users of the software in 6 months, such as a first scenario in which it decreases by roughly 50%, a second scenario in which it stays roughly the same, and a third scenario in which it increases by roughly 50%. In another example, series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 may include a series of communications between individuals discussing starting a project which would require a particular dataset. In this example, plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 may include potential scenarios on whether or not the individuals move forward with the project. In another example, series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may include data describing several instances of users interacting with a particular piece of software. In this example, plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 may include potential scenarios on the number of users that will be using the software at a later date, or potential scenarios on the tools within the software that such users will be using or will desire at a later date.

[0200] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may generate plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 using potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052. Potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 may include a machine learning model trained using supervised learning. Potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 may include a classifier. Potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 may include a regression model. Potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 may be trained on a training dataset including example characteristic features, associated with example projected occurrences. For example, a training dataset may include clusters to which historical communications are assigned, associated with relevant events that took place after those historical communications. For example, an element of training data may include a cluster associated with a report indicating the status of a project or a language model interpretation of such report, and this cluster may be associated with an outcome of the project. In another example, a training dataset may include a cluster associated with historical data on how users use particular software, associated with the number of users using that software at a later date, the degree to which such number changed, or the like. Once potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 is trained, it may be used to determine plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048. One or more characteristic feature of plurality of characteristic features 10040 may be input into potential projected occurrencemachine learning model 1052, and one or more potential projected occurrence of plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 may be received from potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 as an output. In some embodiments, multiple characteristic features may be input into potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 separately in order to produce multiple outputs, which may make up plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048. In some embodiments, different combinations of characteristic features may be input into potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 separately in order to produce multiple outputs, which may make up plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048. In some embodiments, characteristic features of different series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 may be input into potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 separately in order to produce multiple outputs, which may make up plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048. For example, several communications or other elements of process data 1024 may be predictive of one or more events, distinct series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may be determined based on these, as described above, and distinct potential projected occurrences may be determined from characteristic features associated with such series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020.

[0201] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 is configured to weight one or more potential projected occurrence of plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 as a function of at least an optimization constraint 1056. For example, each potential projected occurrence of potential projected occurrences 10048 may be weighted. Optimization constraint 1056 may be in or derived from process data 1024. Plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 may be weighted based on an optimization algorithm. An optimization algorithm may include a selection of a best element from a plurality of alternatives. For example, an optimization algorithm may include an algorithm for finding a maximum or minimum evaluation of a particular function. Such function may be known as an objective function. As an example, an optimization algorithm may find a potential projected occurrence of plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048 with a maximum likelihood of occurring. Variables and / or solutions of an objective function may be discrete or continuous. An optimization algorithm may take into account one or more optimization criteria and / or one or more optimization constraints 1056. As used herein, an “optimization constraint” is a limit on the values a variable in an objective function can take. For example, an objective function maydescribe the probability of potential projected occurrences of plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048. In this example, optimization constraint 1056 may include a limit on objective function variables. For example, an objective function may be limited such that the only potential outcomes are potential projected occurrences of plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048. In another example, a probability estimate may be limited to a probability range of 0% to 1000%. In some embodiments, an objective function may be predefined. For example, apparatus 1000 may select from a list of predefined objective functions based on one or more of plurality of characteristic features 10040.

[0202] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, optimization constraint 1056 may be included in and / or may be derived from process data 1024. Optimization constraint 1056 may be included in and / or derived from a datum determined from process data 1024, such as series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020, plurality of characteristic features 10040, and / or plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048. For example, series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may include a series of communications between individuals, and optimization constraint 1056 used to evaluate an associated potential projected occurrence may include a minimum and / or a maximum probability based on a cluster to which series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 was assigned by feature learning algorithm 10044 (as in, a characteristic feature 10040).Optimization constraint 1056 may be based on probability of occurrence of a potential projected occurrence based on characteristic features 10040 of associated series of nonadjacent occurrences. For example, an occurrence within series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may indicate that use of a particular software has grown by 40% in the past year, and this may be grouped by feature learning algorithm 10044 to a group including several occurrences in which there was growth in software use. In this example, an associated potential projected occurrence may include an occurrence in which use of the software grows by 70% in the next year, and associated optimization constraint 1056 may be based on a rate of historical occurrences in the group reaching that level of growth. In another example, optimization constraint 1056 may be based on process data related to an entity associated with series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020. For example, an entity associated with series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 may have a certain rate of approval of a drug by a government agency, an associated potential projected occurrence may include an occurrence in which a particular drug is approved, and optimization constraint 1056 may include a constraint on an estimated approval probability based on approvalrate of the associated entity. In another example, optimization constraint 1056 may be determined based on a confidence with which potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 predicts a potential projected occurrence. For example, potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052 may output a degree with which input data is associated with categorical output data, and this degree of association may be used to determine optimization constraint 1056. For example, if input data is highly associated with categorical output data, then optimization constraint 1056 may reflect a high probability of occurrence, whereas optimization constraint 1056 may reflect a lower probability of occurrence in a situation in which input data is less associated with categorical output data. In another example, optimization constraint 1056 may include a condition on a non-probability variable, such as a variable describing whether a potential projected occurrence is likely to require use of a particular resource as described below.

[0203] Still referring to FIG. 10, optimization may include computing a score associated with each potential projected occurrence and selecting a potential projected occurrence to minimize and / or maximize the score, depending on whether an optimal result is represented, respectively, by a minimal and / or maximal score. A mathematical function, described herein as an objective function, may be used by apparatus 1000 to score each possible pairing. Objective function may be based on one or more objectives as described below. In some embodiments, a score of a particular potential projected occurrence may be based on a combination of one or more factors, such as language model output, associated entities, overall rates of particular outcomes occurring, rates of particular outcomes occurring where certain characteristic features are present, and the like. Each factor may be assigned a score based on predetermined variables. In some embodiments, assigned scores may be weighted or unweighted.

[0204] Still referring to FIG. 10, optimization of an objective function may include performing a greedy algorithm process. As used herein, a “greedy algorithm” is an algorithm that selects locally optimal choices. Greedy algorithms may or may not generate a globally optimal solution. For instance, processor 1004 may select potential projected occurrence so that scores associated therewith are the best score for each potential projected occurrence.

[0205] Still referring to FIG. 10, an objective function may be formulated as a linear objective function. Apparatus 1000 may solve a linear objective function using a linear program such as without limitation a mixed-integer program. As used herein, a “linear program,” is aprogram that optimizes a linear objective function, given at least a constraint. In some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may determine potential projected occurrence that maximizes a total score subject to a constraint that a particular resource be allocated based on the outcome, as described below. A mathematical solver may be implemented to solve for values that maximize scores; mathematical solver may be implemented on apparatus 1000, and / or may be implemented on third-party solver.

[0206] Still referring to FIG. 10, optimizing objective function may include minimizing a loss function, where a “loss function” is an expression an output of which an optimization algorithm minimizes to generate an optimal result. As a non-limiting example, apparatus 1000 may assign variables relating to a set of parameters, which may correspond to score components as described above, calculate an output of mathematical expression using the variables, and select potential projected occurrence that produces an output having the lowest size, according to a given definition of “size,” of the set of outputs representing each of plurality of candidate ingredient combinations; size may, for instance, included absolute value, numerical size, or the like. Selection of different loss functions may result in identification of different potential pairings as generating minimal outputs.

[0207] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, particle swarm optimization (PSO) may be used. Particle swarm optimization may be used to, for example, find the minimum or maximum of a function. In particle swarm optimization, several particles are placed, such as by placing them randomly. Particles are then iteratively modified according to the best position of the particle in question, and the best position of all particles. Across several iterations, particles may converge on a global minimum / maximum and / or one or more local minima / maxima. The best position ever reached by a particle may be selected as a solution. In some embodiments, particle swarm optimization is less computationally expensive than, for example, computing the value of a function at each possible point.

[0208] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, PSO may be used to determine a weight of an occurrence. For example, potential projected occurrences may represent points whose probability may be evaluated using an objective function. In some embodiments, a sufficiently high number of potential projected occurrences may be identified such that it may be computationally more efficient to use PSO to identify a minimum or maximum probability rather than, for example, evaluating the value of each potential projected occurrence. In someembodiments, PSO may be used to identify a global and / or local maximum probability of occurrence of one or more potential projected occurrences, and the probability of such potential projected occurrences may be used as their weight.

[0209] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 is configured to select a projected occurrence 1060 as a function of weighted plurality of potential projected occurrences. In some embodiments, a potential projected occurrence with the highest weight may be selected. In some embodiments, multiple potential projected occurrences with the highest weight may be selected. In some embodiments, a potential projected occurrence may be selected based on an urgency with which such potential projected occurrence would require resources, which specific resources would be required, and / or the amount of resources which would be required, as described below. Weight may represent, in non-limiting examples, probability of occurrence or desirability.

[0210] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may allocate a resource as a function of projected occurrence 1060. For example, projected occurrence 1060 may present a scenario in which utilization of a particular resource may be desirable. In some cases, such resource may be difficult to efficiently provide upon projected occurrence 1060 happening but may be more readily available beforehand. Non-limiting examples of such resources may include computing power, data, and hardware time. For example, projected occurrence 1060 may present a scenario in which a trained machine learning model is desirable. In this example, apparatus 1000 may collect training data, and / or run a machine learning model training step in anticipation of projected occurrence 1060. In another example, projected occurrence 1060 may present a scenario in which utilization of a particular element of software grows rapidly. In this example, apparatus 1000 may transmit such software to additional servers in order to increase available download bandwidth in anticipation of such increase in use. In another scenario, projected occurrence 1060 may present a scenario in which use of a particular hardware item grows rapidly. In this example, apparatus 1000 may allocate manufacturing resources for at least a part of such hardware item in advance. In some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may gather a datum as a function of projected occurrence 1000. In some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may schedule a calculation as a function of projected occurrence 1000. Such calculations may include, in non-limiting examples, determining a hash and / or proof of work in a cryptography setting, and training a machine learning model. In some embodiments, apparatus1000 may train a machine learning model as a function of projected occurrence 1000. This may include retraining a machine learning model, such as potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052, using a new dataset, such as a new dataset including more recent data. This may include obtaining a new training dataset including a plurality of example characteristic features as inputs correlated to a plurality of example potential projected occurrences as outputs; and retraining the potential projected occurrence machine learning model using the new training dataset. In some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may initiate a physical process such as manufacturing of an item as a function of projected occurrence 1000. In some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may transmit a signal to another device, such as a signal configuring the device to respond to requests for downloading a particular software as a function of projected occurrence 1000.

[0211] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may communicate a datum described herein to a user. In some embodiments, apparatus 1000 may transmit a signal including a datum described herein to user device 1028, and the signal may configure user device 1028 to communicate such datum to user. Apparatus 1000 may determine a visual element data structure based on a datum described herein. Visual element data structure may configure user device 1028 to display a visual element. A visual element may display to a user a datum described herein.

[0212] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, a visual element data structure may include a visual element. As used herein, a “visual element” is a datum that is displayed visually to a user. In some embodiments, a visual element data structure may include a rule for displaying visual element. In some embodiments, a visual element data structure may be determined as a function of projected occurrence 1060. In some embodiments, a visual element data structure may be determined as a function of an item from the list consisting of process data 1024, one or more occurrences of series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020, feature learning algorithm 10044, one or more characteristic features of plurality of characteristic features 10040, potential projected occurrence machine learning model 1052, one or more potential projected occurrence of plurality of potential projected occurrences 10048, optimization constraint 1056, and projected occurrence 1060. In a non-limiting example, a visual element data structure may be generated such that visual element describing or highlighting projected occurrence 1060 isdisplayed to a user. For example, visual elements may be used to display series of nonadj acent occurrences 1020 associated with projected occurrence 1060.

[0213] Still referring to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, visual element may include one or more elements of text, images, shapes, charts, particle effects, interactable features, and the like. For example, upon selection of a first visual element displaying series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020 by a user, a second visual element highlighting an associated characteristic feature may be displayed. In another example, a visual element may include a table including columns for at least an occurrence of series of nonadjacent occurrences 1020, at least a characteristic feature of plurality of characteristic features 10040, projected occurrence 1060, and / or an action to be taken based on projected occurrence 1060.

[0214] Still referring to FIG. 10, a visual element data structure may include rules governing if or when visual element is displayed. In a non-limiting example, a visual element data structure may include a rule causing a visual element describing projected occurrence 1060 to be displayed when a user selects projected occurrence 1060 using a GUI.

[0215] Still referring to FIG. 10, a visual element data structure may include rules for presenting more than one visual element, or more than one visual element at a time. In an embodiment, about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, or 50 visual elements are displayed simultaneously.

[0216] Still referring to FIG. 10, a visual element data structure rule may apply to a single visual element or datum, or to more than one visual element or datum. A visual element data structure may categorize data into one or more categories and may apply a rule to all data in a category, to all data in an intersection of categories, or all data in a subsection of a category (such as all data in a first category and not in a second category). For example, the same rules may be applied to all visual elements for displaying potential projected occurrences. A visual element data structure may rank data or assign numerical values to them. This may include ranking data by priority. A numerical value may, for example, measure the degree to which a first datum is associated with a category or with a second datum. A visual element data structure may apply rules based on a comparison between a ranking or numerical value and a threshold. For example, a numerical value may rank visual elements based on relevance to a user search, and rules may be applied based on such numerical value. Rankings, numerical values, categories, and the like may be used to set visual element data structure rules. Similarly, rankings,numerical values, categories, and the like may be applied to visual elements, and visual elements may be applied based on them.
