Abstract: A multiple output relaxation (MOR) machine learning model. In one example embodiment, a method for employing an MOR machine learning model to predict multiple interdependent output components of a multiple output dependency (MOD) output decision may include training a classifier for each of multiple interdependent output components of an MOD output decision to predict the component based on an input and based on all of the other components. The method may also include initializing each possible value for each of the components to a predetermined output value. The method may further include running relaxation iterations on each of the classifiers to update the output value of each possible value for each of the components until a relaxation state reaches an equilibrium or a maximum number of relaxation iterations is reached. The method may also include retrieving an optimal component from each of the classifiers.

Abstract: A method for an automated call distribution system to re-associate a caller with a queue position previously established in an on-hold queue. The method includes receiving a first incoming call from a caller and assigning the caller to a position in an on-hold queue when the caller is placed on-hold by the automated call distribution system. A placeholder for the caller may then be assigned in the on-hold queue when the caller disconnects with the automated call distribution system. The placeholder corresponds to the position of the caller in the on-hold queue and is associated with a caller identifier. The method further includes receiving a second incoming call from the caller and associating the second incoming call with the caller identifier. It is then determined that the caller is associated with the placeholder. The caller is placed back into the on-hold queue at the position of the placeholder.

An optical pulse can be coupled to the pulse shaper along a coupling direction such that said pulse exits from the pulse shaper after passing through the first and the second dispersive element along an exit direction. The first and the second dispersive element are formed and arranged to be movable relative to each other such that the path length to be traversed by the optical pulse through the first and the second dispersive element after coupling to the pulse shaper can be adjusted without any change in an offset between the coupling direction and the exit direction. The first and the second dispersive element are arranged in such a way that the shape of the optical pulse experiences a change as the pulse travels through the pulse shaper.

Abstract: A camera stabilizer includes a grip for cameras that provides for stability of the camera without a shoulder mount or shoulder mount harness. The current camera stabilizer attaches around the arm of the user then extends through a member roughly parallel to the forearm to a grip that is held by the user. The grip is attached to the member by a ball joint that allows free positioning of the grip relative to the member but may then be locked in position for use. The camera is then attached to the grip. This allows the user to stabilize the camera by holding the elbow closer to the torso, by resting the elbow on a steady object, or by simply flexing the wrist which applies tension to the member thereby providing a more stable grip on the camera and a resulting more stable picture. A kit is also disclosed that includes the camera stabilizer and a harness for tethering the camera stabilizer to a camera operator.
