  • Patent number: 11775161
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for sharing maps in a collaborative environment using classification-based access control. The generation of and dissemination of maps and/or data within such maps can be governed by classification-based access control, where a user's classification level can determine whether or not maps and/or data within those maps can be seen. In some scenarios, a user may wish to reveal the existence of data and/or additional details within a limited geographical area or subset of a map. The systems and methods further provide a geo-fenced view that can dynamically declassify data (to a specified degree). For example, declassified details can be revealed for moving data sets or objects upon entry into the geo-fenced view, and upon existing the geo-fenced view, the moving data sets or objects are reclassified.

  • Patent number: 11733838
    Abstract: Among other things, techniques are described for monitoring and controlling autonomous vehicles (AVs). As an example, at least one processor determines that a first AV is in a field of view of a user wearing an augmented reality display device, determines first data regarding an operation of the first AV, and causes at least a portion of the first data to be presented to the user using the augmented reality display device. For example, a graphical user interface is presented in the field of view of the user using the augmented reality display device, and at least the portion of the first data is included on the graphical user interface, such that at least the portion of the first data appears to be arranged spatially proximal to the first AV in the field of view of the user.

  • Patent number: 11721196
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are provided for creating and providing reminders that involve an activity states of an application on a device. An activity state can correspond to a particular view within an application, e.g., a view that was reached after several inputs from a user. A user can provide a specification of an activity state in a variety of ways, e.g., providing a reminder command while the application is executing in the foreground with the desired activity state or by voice commands that specify the activity state. A user can provide one or more trigger criteria. Once the reminder is triggered, the specified activity state can be provided to the user.

  • Patent number: 11716302
    Abstract: A system that can coordinate user interface formats having customized threads comprising messages from a common thread. Each client device can be managed by a data structure that defines thread containers, where individual thread containers define threads and topics for each thread. Each thread can also be associated with unique groups of messages. The data structure can cause each client computer to display different user interface formats, with each format showing different threads for each user. Users engaged in a chat on a parent thread can split the parent thread into multiple child threads, that can each be associated with unique topics. The system can then associate individual messages of the parent thread with each child thread. The system provides more granular control of user interface formats to allow users to separate messages of high-priority topics.

  • Patent number: 11552859
    Abstract: Physical assets in a network are graphically modeled and controlled using a monitoring and control interface. Prior to committing configuration changes to the physical assets, the draft configuration changes are analyzed to determine if they violate any logical configuration change rules. The logical configuration rules can be model-based according to target physical asset(s) for the draft configuration changes. A logical configuration change rule violation can be graphically displayed on the monitoring and control interface. The configuration changes can be stored to debug the physical assets and to roll back the configuration of the physical assets to a prior state.

  • Patent number: 11543927
    Abstract: A method for rule-based composition of user interfaces involves obtaining a user identity (ID) of a user accessing an application using a user interface and obtaining a user interface (UI) state of the user interface. Based on the UI state and based on the user ID, a plurality of rule-based recipes are obtained. Each rule-based recipe specifies a UI content suitable for an interaction between the user and the user interface. The method further includes ranking each of the rule-based recipes of the plurality of rule-based recipes based on a likeliness that the rule-based recipe is suitable, given the UI state and the user ID, identifying, from the ranked plurality of rule-based recipes, a highest-ranked rule-based recipe, obtaining the UI content specified by the highest-ranked rule-based recipe, and updating the user interface with the UI content.

  • Patent number: 11531914
    Abstract: An AI-based rule generation system generates an ontology from user-provided information and further enables generating rules that govern processes via drag-and-drop operations by automatically generating code in the backend. The rule generation system after generating the ontology, provides access to the entities of the ontology via a drag-and-drop GUI which also includes operators required to generate the rules. The user can drag-and-drop the entity elements and the operator elements as needed onto a whitespace in addition to providing the requisite values in order to generate a rule flow. The rule flow is validated and published to an execution server for use by downstream processes. The rule generation system further includes custom functions in addition to enabling distributed knowledge base processes for generating the rules.
