  • Patent number: 11632324
    Abstract: A node mesh contains an originating node coupled to one or more nodes, each node having an communications interface input and a communications interface output. Each node has a route table with an association between a header amplitude and an output interface, such that a header having a particular amplitude causes the input node which received the message to couple the message to an associated communications interface output of the node. When the originating node outputs a message with a header amplitude, each node of the node mesh in turn directs the message to an output interface as directed by the node local route table to a terminating node of the node mesh, where the terminating node may be a training processor or inference processor for machine learning applications.

  • Patent number: 11545156
    Abstract: Attributes of electronic content from a meeting are identified and evaluated to determine whether sub-portions of the electronic content should or should not be attributed to a user profile. Upon determining that the sub-portion should be attributed to a user profile, attributes of the sub-portion of electronic content are compared to attributes of stored user profiles. A probability that the sub-portion corresponds to at least one stored user profile is calculated. Based on the calculated probability, the sub-portion is attributed to a stored user profile or a guest user profile.
