Abstract: Upon authorizing a user via challenge biometric data, user data is determined to be updated based on detecting a trigger. Upon detecting the trigger prior to authenticating the user, the user data is updated with the challenge biometric data based on authenticating the user. Upon detecting the trigger after authenticating the user, the user data is updated with updated challenge biometric data based on a confidence score for the second biometric data exceeding a threshold. Structure components are controlled based on the updated user data.

Abstract: A system for dynamically controlling an echo canceler includes a processor programmed to receive audio data from an audio sensor, to determine a present type of noise in the received audio data, based on the present type of noise, to determine a number of taps to be removed from an echo canceler, and to execute the echo canceler with a reduced number of taps based on the number of taps to be removed.

Abstract: A first computer and a second computer are each connected to a communication network. User data is generated for a user by the first computer based on receiving, from the second computer, initial enrollment biometric data for the user. The user is authorized by the first computer based on a confidence score for challenge biometric data exceeding a first confidence threshold. Then the user data is updated with updated enrollment biometric data by the first computer based on a confidence score for the updated enrollment biometric data exceeding a second confidence threshold. The second confidence threshold is greater than the first confidence threshold. The initial enrollment biometric data is deleted by the second computer after a predetermined time of receiving the initial enrollment biometric data.

Abstract: Upon obtaining biometric data for a user of a structure while the user is outside the structure, user data for the user is updated based on a confidence score for the biometric data exceeding a first confidence threshold. Based on the confidence score for the biometric data not exceeding the first confidence threshold, instructions are provided to the user to provide updated biometric data. Then the user data is updated based on a confidence score for the updated biometric data exceeding a second confidence threshold. The second confidence threshold is greater than the first confidence threshold. Structure components are controlled based on the updated user data.

Abstract: Upon detecting an authorized portable device, a user of the portable device is authenticated for a structure based on then receiving an authentication message from the authorized portable device. A location of the user is determined with respect to the structure. Instructions are provided to the authorized portable device for the user to provide biometric data based on the location. Upon obtaining the biometric data for the user, user data is generated for the user. Structure components are controlled based on the user data.

Abstract: A vehicle is provided including one or more cameras and a controller coupled to the one or more cameras. The controller is operable to receive data from one or more devices, indicating a location of a user. Based on the data received from the one or more devices, the controller determines an estimated location of a face of the user. Further, the controller, in one or more images captured by the one or more cameras, searches a location of the face of the user based on the estimated location of the face. Thereby, the controller detects the location of the face of the use.

Abstract: A computer-based, automated grading system us configured to receive human-generated source code in a machine-readable format to score the quality of the subject code against a target design specification. An assessment web application administers an assessment and receives a candidate submission that may be injected into a reference codebase, rendered in a browser, and processed by a mismatch generator and scorer to calculate a candidate submission score.
