Abstract: A system and method for predicting an outcome of a court case, includes a method for identifying and linking motion and order pairs of documents of a docket. The motion and order pairs are using multiple techniques including database links, rules, and a transformer-based model. The outcome of a particular case is predicted based on the outcomes of other cases having a sequence of events similar to or the same as the particular case.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating the selection of content for a television broadcast system. A first request for content in a broadcasting based format is received from a television broadcast system. A second request for content in a computer based format is sent to a network-based content selection system. A content identifier associated with selected content is received from the network-based content selection system and sent to the television broadcast system.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for removing noise from document images using a neural network-based machine learning model. A dataset of original document images is used as an input source of images. Random noise is added to the original document images to generate noisy images, which are provided to a neural network-based denoising system that generates denoised images. Denoised images and original document images are evaluated by a neural network-based discriminator system, which generates a predictive output relating to authenticity of evaluated denoised images. Feedback is provided backpropagation updates to train both the denoising and discriminator systems. Training sequences are iteratively performed to provide the backpropagation updates, such that the denoising system is trained to generate denoised images that can pass as original document images while the discriminator system is trained to improve the accuracy in predicting the authenticity of the images presented.

Abstract: Systems and methods for authenticating a user for accessing a restricted system are provided. A code presented by the restricted system is acquired. The code visually represents an authentication challenge. The authentication challenge is extracted from the code. Authentication information associated with the user for use in the authentication challenge is received. The user is authenticated for accessing the restricted system based on the authentication information.

Abstract: A keyboard is disclosed. The keyboard may comprise a biometric sensor configured for authenticating a user; a docking station configured for receiving a security device; and a processor configured for facilitating communication between the biometric sensor and the security device docked in the docking station with a computing device coupled to the keyboard.

Abstract: A monitor stand comprises a first arm for coupling to a first monitor and a second arm for coupling to a second monitor. The first and second arms are coupled to an upper column of the monitor stand. A lower column of the monitor stand supports the upper column. The first arm, the second arm, and the upper column are configured to rotate around a rotation axis offset from a longitudinal center axis of the lower column to fold or unfold the monitor stand between an open and closed position.

Abstract: Systems and methods for classifying a dialogue act in a chat log are provided. Each word of the dialogue act is mapped to a word vector representation. An utterance vector representation of the dialogue act is computed based on the word vector representations. An additional utterance vector representation of the dialogue act is computed based on the utterance vector representation. The additional utterance vector representation is mapped to a classification of the dialogue act.

Abstract: The invention provides systems, methods, and computer programs to improve the accuracy and efficiency with which data analysts can use news stories, press releases, and other sources of information to maintain databases that contain information about individuals and businesses and other organizations. Documents containing material information are acquired in computer-readable form and optionally may then be reduced to raw text. One or more computerized systems process the text and tag important terms such as proper nouns, job titles, awards, and other terms indicating professional, educational, corporate, or other developments. The invention provides a user interface with which a data analyst can review, confirm, remove, modify, introduce, and link the tags, ultimately adding the information and links to a database and storing the source document in an electronic warehouse for future retrieval.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a system and method for efficient, coordinated, distributed execution. Processes are registered into a process registry which includes a table or list of processes. Processes which are determined to be no longer running are removed from the registry. Each process is configured to send a broadcast when it starts or stops. Each process periodically reads the registry, sorts the list, and uses it to determine the current master process based on an algorithm.

Abstract: The invention provides a handset that includes a finger-image sensor that provides finger-image-related signals or data for authentication purposes and functions as a telephone handset for use with a computer terminal. A system, including handsets and computer terminals, enables the terminal and/or the handset to access or otherwise participate in at least one network-related function and voice communication in response to authentication of finger-image data provided by the handset.
