  • Patent number: 11960832
    Abstract: Machine learning, artificial intelligence, and other computer-implemented methods are used to identify various semantically important chunks in documents, automatically label them with appropriate datatypes and semantic roles, and use this enhanced information to assist authors and to support downstream processes. Chunk locations, datatypes, and semantic roles can often be automatically determined from what is here called “context”, to wit, the combination of their formatting, structure, and content; those of adjacent or nearby content; overall patterns of occurrence in a document, and similarities of all these things across documents (mainly but not exclusively among documents in the same document set).

  • Publication number: 20240104467
    Abstract: Tasks associated with users can be managed for efficient workflow management. A task management component (TMC) can analyze, including performing artificial intelligence-based analysis on, task-related information relating to associated with a user(s), assessment information relating to assessing performance or expertise associated with a task, biometric information relating to health, diet, and activity associated with the user(s), and/or user(s) feedback information. Based on the analysis, TMC can adaptively adjust respective attributes associated with respective tasks, resulting in respective adjusted attributes associated with the respective tasks. Based on the respective adjusted attributes, TMC can determine task information and can present the task information to a device(s) associated with the user(s) to facilitate performance of the tasks.

  • Publication number: 20240104858
    Abstract: Creating scent models and using scent models in cross-reality environments can include capturing experience data identifying a scent detected and a context in which the scent was detected. The experience data can be provided to a scent modeling service to generate a scent model that can represent perceived scents and perceived scent intensities for a user. The scent model can be used to generate cross-reality session data to be used in a cross-reality session presented by a cross-reality device. The cross-reality device can include a scent generator and can generate the cross-reality session using data obtained from the user device. The cross-reality device can generate a further scent during the cross-reality session based on the scent model.

  • Patent number: 8743906
    Abstract: Described are computer-based methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for scalable seamless digital video stream splicing. Data packets in a first video stream of bits are rearranged. Placeholder packets are created in a second video stream of bits. The first video stream of bits and the second video stream of bits are combined to generate a spliced stream by inserting data packets from the first video stream of bits into the placeholder packets in the second video stream of bits.
