Jumping callers held in queue for a call center routing system

Methods and systems are provided for routing callers to agents in a call-center routing environment. An exemplary method includes identifying caller data for a caller in a queue of callers, and jumping or moving the caller to a different position within the queue based on the caller data. The caller data may include one or both of demographic data and psychographic data. The caller can be jumped forward or backward in the queue relative to at least one other caller. Jumping the caller may further be based on comparing the caller data with agent data via a pattern matching algorithm and / or computer model for predicting a caller-agent pair outcome. Additionally, if a caller is held beyond a hold threshold (e.g., a time, “cost” function, or the like) the caller may be routed to the next available agent.

Pooling callers for a call center routing system

Methods and systems are provided for routing callers to agents in a call-center routing environment. An exemplary method includes routing a caller from a pool of callers based on at least one caller data associated with the caller, where a pool of callers includes, e.g., a set of callers that are not chronologically ordered and routed based on a chronological order or hold time of the callers. The caller may be routed from the pool of callers to an agent, placed in another pool of callers, or placed in a queue of callers. The caller data may include demographic or psychographic data. The caller may be routed from the pool of callers based on comparing the caller data with agent data associated with an agent via a pattern matching algorithm and / or computer model for predicting a caller-agent pair outcome. Additionally, if a caller is held beyond a hold threshold (e.g., a time, “cost” function, or the like) the caller may be routed to the next available agent.

Routing callers out of queue order for a call center routing system

Methods and systems are provided for routing callers to agents in a call-center routing environment. An exemplary method includes identifying caller data for a caller of a plurality of callers in a queue, and routing the caller from the queue out of queue order. For example, a caller that is not at the top of the queue may be routed from the queue based on the identified caller data, out of order with respect to the queue order. The caller may be routed to another queue of callers, a pool of callers, or an agent based on the identified caller data, where the caller data may include one or both of demographic and psychographic data. The caller may be routed from the queue based on comparing the caller data with agent data associated with an agent via a pattern matching algorithm and / or computer model for predicting a caller-agent pair outcome. Additionally, if a caller is held beyond a hold threshold (e.g., a time, “cost” function, or the like) the caller may be routed to the next available agent.

Pooling callers for matching to agents based on pattern matching algorithms

Methods and systems are provided for routing callers to agents in a call-center routing environment. An exemplary method includes identifying caller data for at least one of a set of callers on hold and causing a caller of the set of callers to be routed to an agent based on a comparison of the caller data and the agent data. The caller data and agent data may be compared via a pattern matching algorithm and / or computer model for predicting a caller-agent pair having the highest probability of a desired outcome. As such, callers may be pooled and routed to agents based on comparisons of available caller and agent data, rather than a conventional queue order fashion. If a caller is held beyond a hold threshold the caller may be routed to the next available agent. The hold threshold may include a predetermined time, “cost” function, number of times the caller may be skipped by other callers, and so on.

Routing callers from a set of callers based on caller data

Methods and systems are provided for routing callers to agents in a call-center routing environment. An exemplary method includes pooling incoming callers, and causing a caller from the pool of callers to be routed. The caller may be routed from the pool of callers to an agent, placed in another pool of callers, or placed in a queue of callers. The caller data may include demographic or psychographic data. The caller may be routed from the pool of callers based on comparing the caller data with agent data associated with an agent via a pattern matching algorithm and / or computer model for predicting a caller-agent pair outcome. Additionally, if a caller is held beyond a hold threshold (e.g., a time, “cost” function, or the like) the caller may be routed to the next available agent.

Recommender and payment methods for recruitment

A job recommender method and a candidate recommender method apply two common classification techniques (K-nearest Neighbors and Classification Tree) to generate job recommendations for job seekers and candidate recommendations for employers. The invention further utilizes a matching algorithm to calculate the match degree between a particular job and a particular candidate, and to create an order of priority and relevancy for users. In addition, the matching algorithm enables a pay-for-performance payment method, which charges employers for receiving qualified candidates. The recommender and payment methods and system of the invention is accessible via a network, such a local area network, a wide area network, or the Internet.

Radiological imaging method and device

A method for radiological imaging of a region of interest including blood vessels. The method has the steps of acquiring a real-time fluoroscopic image of the region of interest by exposing the region of interest to a first dose of X-rays, the fluoroscopic image showing background structures and instrument introduced into the vessels; subtracting a mask image from the acquired real-time fluoroscopic image to generate a subtracted fluoroscopic image showing only the instrument; combining the subtracted fluoroscopic image and a pre-recorded diagnostic image of the region of interest showing only the blood vessels to generate a combined image showing both the blood vessels and the instrument; and displaying the combined image on a screen for viewing. The mask image is determined from a fluoroscopic image acquired prior to the introduction of the instrument into the vessels by exposing the region to an X-ray does equivalent to the first dose.

Allocation of distribution weights to links in a packet network comprising traffic distribution

The invention relates to a method for adjusting distribution weights in a network comprising multiway routing or distribution tiers. Traffic on links or via nodes in which a threshold value for the volume of traffic is exceeded is reduced by adjusting the relative distribution weights within the distribution tiers. The inventive method allows shifting of distribution weights so as to obtain equal traffic distribution in the network. Disclosed are abort criteria in case the volume of traffic exceeds the capacity of the network. Traffic distribution which respects load thresholds of individual links represents a major step towards guaranteeing quality of service characteristics for telecommunication services provided via the Net.

The invention is applicable to the field of medical image processing, and provides a dividing method based on the CT (Computed Tomography) image liver tumor focus. The method comprises the following steps of preprocessing an initial CT image; completing ROI selection on the suspected focus in an interactive way by aiming at the preprocessed CT image; performing texture description on the ROI based on a CT value, and obtaining probability spectrums of the ROI through weighted computation of texture descriptors; building a big data priori knowledge base, determining a focus region probability spectrum threshold value, and dividing the suspected focus based on the threshold value; and completing the volume statistics and the quantization output on the focus. The method has the advantages that a plurality of texture descriptor probability spectrums are obtained based on stable and comparable CT value calculation; meanwhile, the threshold value of the texture descriptor probability spectrums is obtained through manual division calculation based on the priori knowledge base; and the accuracy and the timeliness of the multi-domain liver tumor focus division in the CT image can be realized.
