  • Patent number: 11996987
    Abstract: A system, methods, and computer-readable media are provided herein for real-time “live” identification of connectivity issues with autonomous predictive solution provision via a diagnostic application supported by a machine-learning model. In aspects, live data in a targeted application is captured in an on-going manner and used by the diagnostic application to automatically identify connectivity issues. When connectivity issues are detected, the live data capture is pushed to the model so that the model can make a predictive classification of the error based on geospatial, temporal, and/or geospatial-temporal alignments in the data. Based on the classification, the model predicts a solution and the diagnostic application provides the solution to the user of the targeted application.

  • Patent number: 11994678
    Abstract: An image generation unit includes a display panel, a first illumination system, and a second illumination system. The display panel has a first and a second imaging regions adjacently arranged and located on the same plane. The first illumination system provides a first light beam incident on the first imaging region at a first incident angle. The first imaging region converts the first light beam into a first image beam. The second illumination system provides a second light beam incident on the second imaging region at a second incident angle. The second imaging region converts the second light beam into a second image beam. The optical paths of the first light beam and the second light beam do not intersect with each other. The first image beam and the second image beam leave the display panel at different light exit angles.

  • Patent number: 11994902
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display (LCD) includes several transparent material layers and several non-transparent material layers that are disposed in a stacked mode. The LCD also has a local transparent region, and no non-transparent material is applied to the several non-transparent material layers in the local transparent region. This forms a transparent channel in the local transparent region along a stacking direction. An optical component is completely or partially disposed in the transparent channel of the LCD display. The optical component may be a camera, an ambient light sensor, an optical fingerprint sensor, or another component disposed under the display by using the local transparent region on the LCD display.

  • Patent number: 11996083
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided of using a machine learning model for disentanglement of prosody in spoken natural language. The method includes encoding, by a computing device, the spoken natural language to produce content code. The method further includes resampling, by the computing device without text transcriptions, the content code to obscure the prosody by applying an unsupervised technique to the machine learning model to generate prosody-obscured content code. The method additionally includes decoding, by the computing device, the prosody-obscured content code to synthesize speech indirectly based upon the content code.

  • Patent number: 11996116
    Abstract: Examples relate to on-device non-semantic representation fine-tuning for speech classification. A computing system may obtain audio data having a speech portion and train a neural network to learn a non-semantic speech representation based on the speech portion of the audio data. The computing system may evaluate performance of the non-semantic speech representation based on a set of benchmark tasks corresponding to a speech domain and perform a fine-tuning process on the non-semantic speech representation based on one or more downstream tasks. The computing system may further generate a model based on the non-semantic representation and provide the model to a mobile computing device. The model is configured to operate locally on the mobile computing device.

  • Patent number: 11991065
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed to identify network nodes/cells with performance seasonality based on time series of performance data and external reference data. A plurality of time series of data values is obtained, each time series comprising a series of data values corresponding to a performance indicator of one network node in a periodicity. A plurality of series of external reference data values in the first periodicity is also obtained. For a time series of data values, the method identifies a network node providing the time series of data values as having performance seasonality regarding the performance indicator of the network, when similarity between the time series of data values and a corresponding series of external reference data values meets a criterion based on dynamic time warping distance calculation and pair-wise distance calculation using the time series of data values and the series of external reference data values.
