  • Patent number: 11914753
    Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a container builder (110) for building a container image for providing an individualized network service based on sensitive data (122) in a database (121). The container builder (110) retrieves the sensitive data (122) from the database (121), builds the container image (140), and provides it for deployment to a cloud service provider (111). The container image (140) comprises the sensitive data (122) and instructions that, when deployed as a container, cause the container to provide the individualized network service based on the sensitive data (122) comprised in the container image (140).

  • Publication number: 20220084511
    Abstract: Systems and processes for creating and updating natural language models are provided. An example process of creating a natural language model includes, at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory, receiving an utterance, associating an action structure with the utterance, determining a plurality of augmented utterances based on the received utterance, creating a natural language model including the received utterance and the plurality of augmented utterances by mapping the plurality of augmented utterance to the associated action structure, and providing the natural language model including the received utterance and the plurality of augmented utterances to a second electronic device.

  • Patent number: 10139353
    Abstract: An apparatus for examining components comprising laid fiber composite fabrics or woven fiber composite fabrics which comprise a number of thin plies with in part different alignment, comprises a measuring device for carrying out a non-destructive measurement to collect volumetric data of the component and comprising an evaluation device for evaluating the collected data of the component, wherein the evaluation by the evaluation device comprises selecting a first analysis region in the collected data of the component, determining a local coordinate system of the first analysis region, successively establishing local material properties layer-by-layer at predetermined distances in a direction perpendicular to the lateral extent of the first analysis region, detecting ply boundaries along the established material properties, and averaging the local material properties in each detected ply.
