| 20100100515 | TEXT EDIT TRACKER - A method for monitoring edits to a template for responding to an incoming communication includes categorizing the incoming communication into a category associated with the template for a response to the incoming communication. The method also includes determining distances between the template and each of a set of responses based on the template, at a predetermined level of granularity. The method also includes coding the template in accordance with the determined distances and displaying the coded template. A method for extracting a new template based on responses to an existing template includes selecting factors that affect quantitative measures for preparing a response to the incoming communication. The method includes using a mathematical model of the factors to cluster a set of responses created based on the existing template into two clusters. The method further includes restricting a first cluster centroid to be the existing template and searching for a second cluster centroid for a second cluster. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100161315 | CORRELATED CALL ANALYSIS - A method of correlating received communication data with operational communication characteristics is provided. The method includes receiving audible input from a source in a communication over a communications network, recording the received audible input, and transcribing the recorded audible input into a transcript. The method further includes outputting the transcript, specifying features of the transcript to be analyzed, specifying and recording operational communication characteristics particular to the communication, analyzing the transcript for the specified features to identify patterns associated with the audible input, computing statistical correlations of the identified patterns with the operational communication characteristics, and outputting results of the computed statistical correlations on a user interface. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100332227 | AUTOMATIC DISCLOSURE DETECTION - A method of detecting pre-determined phrases to determine compliance quality is provided. The method includes determining whether at least one of an event or a precursor event has occurred based on a comparison between pre-determined phrases and a communication between a sender and a recipient in a communications network, and rating the recipient based on the presence of the pre-determined phrases associated with the event or the presence of the pre-determined phrases associated with the precursor event in the communication. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20100332286 | PREDICTING COMMUNICATION OUTCOME BASED ON A REGRESSION MODEL - Predicting a score related to a communication sent by a sender over a communications network to a first agent servicing the communication includes obtaining a regression result for an objective function by encoding features extracted from the communication. The encoded features are applied to a regression model for the objective function. The regression result is output to a network component in the communications network. The regression model is determined prior to or concurrently with receiving the communication from the sender. | 12-30-2010 |

| 20090126184 | Method of making an armature - An armature for an electric motor has a lamination stack on a shaft with a commutator mounted on one end of the shaft. Magnet wires wound in slots in the lamination stack, the commutator and armature shaft are at least partially encapsulated in thermoset. The commutator has a commutator ring divided into a plurality of segments with slots between the segments that are filled with a second plastic when the commutator is made by molding a core of the second plastic, such as phenolic, in the commutator ring before the commutator ring is mounted on the armature shaft. Prior to molding the thermoset, the commutator ring is sealed. The seal prevents the thermoset from flowing into the slots between the commutator ring segments or over the commutator ring. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090200891 | Electric Motor Having A Field Assembly With Slot Insulation - An electric motor has a field assembly, such as a stator, for a dynamoelectric machine has field coils that are wound to a net shape. Lead wires are brought out from the ends of each field coil. The field coils are insulated with insulating sleeves or insulating slot liners. The field coils are assembled with stator core pieces, such as pole pieces and return path pieces, into the stator. The stator core pieces are formed prior to being assembled with the field coils. In an aspect of the invention, the pole pieces and return path pieces are separately formed and then assembled together with the field coils, which have also been separately formed. | 08-13-2009 |
