Microsoft patents AI model to predict group-level business conversions

Microsoft describes a machine learning method that combines data from user sequences, identity profiles, and conversion features to predict business outcomes. The system uses specific AI layers to process these inputs and generate a metric indicating whether a specific individual action leads to a broader group-level result.

Why it mattersThis filing details a technical approach for improving how software predicts complex business events, which is useful for understanding how companies build predictive analytics tools.

In the filing’s own words

Modeled conversions for connection networking are described. A method comprises generating a first input vector comprising a set of sequence features for a group of entities using a transformer layer of a machine learning model, generating a second input vector comprising a set of identity profile features for the group of entities using a generative artificial intelligence layer, receiving a third input vector comprising a set of conversion features, concatenating the first input vector, the second input vector, and the third input vector into a concatenated vector, normalizing the concatenated vector to form a normalized vector, projecting the normalized vector to form a projected vector, and generating a first metric based on the projected vector using a multi-gate mixture-of-experts (MMOE) layer of the ML model, the first metric comprising a value indicating whether there is a deterministic entity level conversion event for a group level conversion event.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A method, comprising: generating a first input vector comprising a set of sequence features for a group of entities using a transformer layer of a machine learning (ML) model; compressing the first input vector to reduce a sequence length; generating a second input vector comprising a set of identity profile features for the group of entities using a generative artificial intelligence (GAI) layer of the ML model; receiving a third input vector comprising a set of conversion features; concatenating the first input vector, the second input vector, and the third input vector into a concatenated vector; normalizing the concatenated vector to form a normalized vector; projecting the normalized vector to form a projected vector; and generating a first metric based on the projected vector using a multi-gate mixture-of-experts (MMOE) layer of the ML model, the first metric comprising a value indicating whether there is a deterministic entity level conversion event for a group level conversion event.
