    Abstract: In an approach, a processor groups documents into a plurality of groups based on similarity, where: documents of each group have a same document structure; and the document structure is defined by coordinates of text blocks. A processor, for each group of the plurality of groups and for each document of the respective group: retrieves a value of each text block of the respective document in accordance with a document structure of the group; and assigns to each text block of the respective document an attribute that represents the retrieved value of the text block. A processor assigns a first document of the documents to an entity of a database that matches the first document based on the group of text block values and the assigned attributes of the document.

  • Patent number: 11391440
    Abstract: Light-emitting component includes a light source and a dimming element arranged downstream of the light source in a radiation direction. The dimming element includes a dimming layer. The light source includes at least one emitter which is configured to emit light. A brightness of a light emitted by the light-emitting component is adjustable. The brightness is partially adjustable by way of a pulse width modulated and/or amplitude modulated operating signal for the emitter, and the brightness is partially adjustable by way of partial absorption and/or reflection of the light emitted by the emitter in the dimming element. A dimming capability of the dimming layer increases along an extension direction transverse to the radiation direction. The dimming layer is displaceable along the extension direction relative to the light source. A degree of absorption and/or reflection of light emitted by the emitter is variably adjustable.

  • Publication number: 20220191192
    Abstract: In an approach for authentication of a username, a processor maintains a mapping of usernames and realms. A processor receives a username and a time-based one-time password code (TOTP code) for the username based on an authentication application. A processor, upon receiving the TOTP code: determines a realm from the mapping based on the received username and the received TOTP; and requests an entry of a credential relating to the username in the realm. A processor, upon receiving of the requested credential, authenticates the username by determining that the received credential matches an expected credential for the realm.
