    Abstract: In an entity such as a call center, back office, or retail operation, external event data is recorded along with call volume information for a plurality of time intervals. Based on the recorded event data and call volume for the plurality of intervals, a model is trained to predict call (or other communication) volume for a specified time interval using the external event data. The external event data may include data about one or more events that may affect the demand received by the entity. When the predicted call volume is significantly above or below what would be predicted for the entity using historical data alone, an indicator may be displayed to a user or administrator that identifies the external event that is responsible for the lower or higher prediction. The call volume prediction may be used to schedule one or more agents (or other employees) to work during the specified time interval.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for incorporating intelligent virtual assistants into advertisements on social networking platforms are provided. When a user interacts with a content item, an intelligent virtual assistant is selected and put into contact with the user. The intelligent virtual assistant is provided with a context that includes information about the user in the social networking platform, information about the user in a customer relationship management platform, and information about the product, service, or entity associated with the content item. The context allows the intelligent virtual assistant to converse with the user in a way that feels natural and relevant to the user and allows the intelligent virtual assistant to answer any questions about the product, service, or entity associated with the content item.

    Abstract: Systems and methods of automated personalized guidance include the evaluation of interaction content data. At least one automated guidance is assigned to an agent based upon the evaluation. The automated guidance is defined by at least one interaction type and at least one guidance trigger. Interaction content data is monitored to identify instances of the interaction type and the guidance trigger. Upon identification of the interaction type and the guidance trigger, the automated guidance is automatically provided. The automated guidance is then evaluated based upon the interaction content data.

    Abstract: Various embodiments are described which leverage techniques for breaking down critical ideas from an inputted phrase into concepts in order to provide a response that is more relevant to the inputted phrase. In this regard, concepts and/or concept patterns are utilized with information retrieval searching to provide more relevant and concise documents in response to an inputted phrase. In addition, concepts and/or concept patterns are utilized with respect to assessing information (e.g., documents) available in a knowledge base and building appropriate pre-defined responses to an inputted phrase.

    Abstract: The present invention allows a user to review the routing of various communications. The system receives incoming communications for analysis by a smart routing engine (SRE) software module. The SRE module analyzes the communication at various system routing points, which is used by SRE to route the communication to an appropriate party. The SRE updates a routing log at each point to ensure a record of the reasons for routing the communication in a certain way. The routing log passes with the communication. This ensures that the ultimate recipient of the communication understands why they have received the communication and reduces the time required for a communication to be acted upon.
