Overhauling Customer Service with Neural Networks and Advanced Generative Models

Using computer vision, deep learning architecture, proactive monitoring and smart agent assist

Objectives

  • Audio quality issues in customer service calls impact 5-7% of call volume
  • The audio call quality is manually evaluated and scored – overall rating based on any audio quality issues observed in the recorded call
  • The available tools use RMSE and Spectrogram to visualize/analyze signals, however, if audio has echo, lag, low volume, or background noise, it goes unrecognized
  • Missing RCA and proactive monitoring of the problematic calls

Challenges

  • The manual process of evaluating a very large
    number of audio call files is cumbersome and time-consuming
  • The Audio quality issues are not captured and/or scored based on multiple types of audio quality issues
  • There is a need to monitor call quality over regular
    intervals to identify patterns by geography, carrier,
    time of the day, day of the week
  • Support agents need real-time assistance to reduce
    resolution time

Solutions

Leveraged Support Vector Machine (SVM), powerful supervised classification algorithm, to identify the optimal hyperplane that best separates data into distinct classes. The audio quality classification is measured by using dataset including 32 audio metadata attributes and high-dimensional spaces to achieve 97% overall accuracy with testing data.

Built and implemented end-to-end solution for Audio Quality Solution which can:
