Abstract: An inventory management system provides automated management of medical item inventory and maintenance of a digital chain of custody for medical items. Medical items are labeled with an RFID-encoded tag that also displays a 2D barcode. The RFID tag and the 2D barcode both encode the same serialized Electronic Product Code (EPC) data for each specific item. Reading of the RFID tag is performed using a fixed or handheld RFID reader. Reading of the 2D barcode is performed using a handheld mobile device, such as a tablet or smart phone. The two-technology label allows for the digital chain of custody to be updated by means of RFID scanning in locations where RFID readers are available and by using a smart phone or tablet to read the 2D barcode in locations where RFID readers are unavailable.

Abstract: A system and techniques for identifying an absence of any contact fitting lens in an user-friendly manner for automated replenishment. The system includes an assembly stocked with fitting lenses of know types that are depletable from known compartment locations of the assembly. Further, depletion of a compartment through the natural course of fitting lens distribution to customers results in the automatic display of a visual indicator at the corresponding compartment location. Thus, an imaging application of the front of the assembly may be utilized to immediately ascertain lens types of the assembly which are depleted. As a result, the image may be used to facilitate automatic replenishment of such depleted fitting lenses.

Abstract: Techniques for classifying and processing physical objects are disclosed. In an example, a computer system may receive first data indicating that a first machine learning model of a robotic system is incapable to classify a physical object according to at least one of a set of predetermined classifications. The computer system may also receive second data corresponding to one or more attributes associated with the physical object. A second machine learning model of the computer system may determine a cluster of physical objects that includes an identifier of the physical object, whereby the identifier is included in the cluster based at least in part on the first data and a common attribute with other physical objects of the cluster. The computer system may then determine data for processing subsequent physical objects that are determined to have the common attribute.

Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for enhancing a merchant product webpage by providing additional content associated with a product being displayed on the merchant product webpage. A product catalog stores product records corresponding to data associated with different products. As a webpage is accessed by a user device, data is extracted from the merchant product webpage. The extracted data is used to identify one or more product records in the product catalog that are potential matches to the webpage. When multiple product records are identified, a remote server is used to access and interact with the webpage separate from the user device. Additional data is extracted from the webpage based on interactions by the remote server with the webpage. The additional data is used to determine a single product record for the webpage. The webpage is modified based on the single product record.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, a machine learning algorithm is used to train a machine-learned model to create a three-dimensional representation of products, with each product mapped into a coordinate in the three-dimensional space. The model selects the coordinates based on the similarity of the product to other products. Coordinates that are closer geometrically in the three-dimensional space represent products that are similar to each other, whereas as the coordinates get further and further away, this implies that the products are less and less similar. This machine-learned model then not only allows for quick analysis of multiple products, as similarity between products or groups of products can be performed using geometric calculations (e.g., cosine distance), but also can then be tied into a three-dimensional representation that can be displayed either on a two-dimensional display or displayed on a three-dimensional display.
