| Abstract | Customer-agent conversations (i.e. call transcripts) are invaluable source for companies as they convey direct information from their customers implicit and explicit behaviour. Identifying customer-related events is an important task in customer services which is possible from the call transcripts. However, call centers produces a vast amount of transcripts which makes the manual or semi-manual processing of such raw datasets quite challenging. Furthermore, customer-agent call transcripts tend not to explicitly denote events that might be beneficial to customer services. Albeit being highly researched across multiple domains in the literature, event detection, especially implicit life event detection have not been well examined from call transcripts due to a lack of proper large-scale dataset. In this research, we propose a novel deep learning approach based on latent topic modeling and deep recurrent neural networks with memory units to automatically detect implicit events from a customer's history of call transcripts. These implicit events are detected prior to the report date of that event thereby not containing any explicit topic/feature. We provide a case study on a real-life, large-scale data of more than 800K call transcripts from a large financial services company in the U.S. to examine the practical features and challenges of this problem. The evaluation results demonstrate the potential applicability of our implicit life event detection as it achieves a macro-recall score of 53 (macro-f1 of 47.5) on a highly imbalanced test set, negative samples are 95% of the data. Our model beats the the state-of-the-art text classification benchmarks by macro-f1 score of 5.6 and macro-recall of 8.8 on average, and performs better than the ensemble of all single-document and sequential classification benchmarks albeit being significantly less complex. The comparison results show the importance as well as our model's capability of capturing the mutual information of a sequence of call transcripts in detecting the implicit life events. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
