Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for automatically detecting and reconstructing patterns in digital images. The disclosed system determines structurally similar pixels of a digital image by comparing neighborhood descriptors that include the structural context for neighborhoods of the pixels. In response to identify structurally similar pixels of a digital image, the disclosed system utilizes non-maximum suppression to reduce the set of structurally similar pixels to collinear pixels within the digital image. Additionally, the disclosed system determines whether a group of structurally similar pixels define the boundaries of a pattern cell that forms a rectangular grid pattern within the digital image. The disclosed system also modifies a boundary of a detected pattern cell to include a human-perceived pattern object via a sliding window corresponding to the pattern cell.

Abstract: A guided search system for suggesting and arranging filter criteria within a user interface for presentation to a user to help guide the user’s search for listings is disclosed. The system builds one or more filter criteria frequency data structures indicative of the number of times each filter criterion has been used to filter search results and how often different filter criteria are used together. The system uses the frequency data structures to predict which filter criteria a user will likely employ to narrow their search given the filter criteria the user has already used. The system provides techniques for arranging or rearranging filter criteria within a user interface, by moving, placing, or ordering suggested filter criteria within the user interface, where a user is likely to be able to recognize and interact with the placed filter criteria, based on the determined amounts of use.

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved wireless communications. For example, communication systems may benefit from a wireless broadband network that monitors and detects link latency. A method includes detecting latency information of data being transmitted on at least one link between a first base station and at least one second base station. In addition, the method includes forming at least one array comprising the latency information of the data. Further, the method includes modifying a system behavior relating to at least the first base station or the at least one second base station based on the at least one array.

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from secure sharing of information. For example, various wireless communication systems may benefit from the sharing of a secure connection context via a trusted proxy. A method can include generating by a virtual machine instance a private key. The method can also include generating by the virtual machine instance a certificate signing request. The certificate signing request can include a universally unique identifier of the virtual machine instance. The method can further include sending the certificate signing request to a certificate signing authority.

Abstract: There is provided a method comprising determining a first subset of cells served by a first base station to be suitable for handover to a user equipment associated with a second base station, the subset comprising at least one but not all of the cells served by the first base station and providing information to the second base station from the first base station, said information comprising an indication of the determined first subset of cells.

Abstract: During a training phase of a machine learning model, representations of at least some nodes of a decision tree are generated and stored on persistent storage in depth-first order. A respective predictive utility metric (PUM) value is determined for one or more nodes, indicating expected contributions of the nodes to a prediction of the model. A particular node is selected for removal from the tree based at least partly on its PUM value. A modified version of the tree, with the particular node removed, is stored for obtaining a prediction.

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved signaling. For example, certain communication systems may benefit from improved signaling before network access is revoked through a citizens broadband radio service. A method may include receiving at a network entity from a citizens broadband radio service device a warning message. The warning message may include a drop time after which communication between a network and a user equipment using the citizens broadband radio service will terminate. The method may also include triggering the performing of an action based on the warning message by the network before the drop time.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for an automated service agent. Natural language inputs are obtained from a client. The natural language inputs and other data are input to machine learning models to identify intents reflected in the natural language inputs. A state in a workflow is updated to reflect the identified intents. Responses may be communicated to the client to further progress in the workflow.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to content identification based on dynamic formation of group profiles. The group profile can be associated with some organization criteria, such as physical location, temporal attributes, etc., and can be configured with various preferences and restrictions. Subsequent to the initialization of the group profile(s), individual users can be associated with the group. Based on the addition (or subtraction) of users, the established group profiles are updated or modified according to one or more attributes of the individual profiles of the users associated with the group. Content of interest to the group can be identified using the group profile information. The identified content can also be provided to the individual users associated with the group. The group profile can be updated based on group membership change or feedback to identified content, and additional or alternative content recommendations can be provided.

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved radio frequency transmissions. For example, communication systems may benefit from the selection of a frequency band based on measurements of a spectrum surrounding the user equipment. A method, in certain embodiments, may include taking measurements by a base station of a spectrum of an environment surrounding a user equipment. The method may also include determining based on the measurements and radio frequency capabilities of the base station at least one desired frequency for transmission by the user equipment. In addition, the method may include sending a request from the base station to a network entity requesting a grant of the at least one desired frequency for transmission by the user equipment.

Abstract: A first representation of a feature processing recipe is received at a machine learning service. The recipe includes a section in which groups of variables on which common transformations are to be applied are defined, and a section in which a set of transformation operations are specified. The first representation of the recipe is validated based at least in part on a library of function definitions supported by the service, and an executable version of the recipe is generated. In response to a determination that the recipe is to be executed on a particular data set, a set of provider network resources is used to implement a transformation operation indicated in the recipe.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, computer-readable medium and system for sharing information are disclosed. A user may associate at least one group with content uploaded to a content database. Each group may be associated with a different department within the business, a different task, a different concept, etc. A search for content may be limited to one or more of the groups, thereby increasing the relevance of the results returned to a user. Additionally, relevance of the search results may be increased by enabling users to flag content so that it is excluded from subsequent searches. Further, certain members may certify content, thereby enabling a user to conveniently determine if content is credible and/or respected by other members of the business.
