  • Patent number: 11972350
    Abstract: Systems and methods of predicting documentation associated with an encounter between attendees are provided. For instance, attendee data indicative of one or more previous visit notes associated with a first attendee can be obtained. The attendee data can be inputted into a machine-learned note prediction model that includes a neural network. The neural network can generate one or more context vectors descriptive of the attendee data. Data indicative of a predicted visit note can be received as output of the machine-learned note prediction model based at least in part on the context vectors. The predicted visit note can include a set of predicted information expected to be included in a subsequently generated visit note associated with the first attendee.

  • Patent number: 11972307
    Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can be invoked while a user is interfacing with a foreground application in order to retrieve data from one or more different applications, and then provide the retrieved data to the foreground application. A user can invoke the automated assistant while operating the foreground application by providing a spoken utterance, and the automated assistant can select one or more other applications to query based on content of the spoken utterance. Application data collected by the automated assistant from the one or more other applications can then be used to provide an input to the foreground application. In this way, the user can bypass switching between applications in the foreground in order to retrieve data that has been generated by other applications.

  • Patent number: 11972238
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for propagating reduced-precision on computation graphs are described. In one aspect, a method includes receiving data specifying a directed graph that includes operators for a program. The operators include first operators that each represent a numerical operation performed on numerical values having a first level of precision and second operators that each represent a numerical operation performed on numerical values having a second level of precision. One or more downstream operators are identified for a first operator. A determination is made whether each downstream operator represents a numerical operation that is performed on input values having the second level of precision. Whenever each downstream operator represents a numerical operation that is performed on input values having the second level of precision, a precision of numerical values output by the operation represented by the first operator is adjusted to the second level of precision.

  • Patent number: 11972033
    Abstract: An IC chip can provide silicon root of trust (RoT) functionality. In described implementations, the IC chip includes a processor, an alert handler, and multiple peripheral devices, which generate alert indications. The alert handler processes the alert indications, which have security implications. The alert handler includes multiple alert receiver modules to communicate with the multiple peripheral devices. The alert handler also includes a controller, multiple accumulation units, multiple escalation timers, and multiple escalation sender modules. These components can be organized into a hierarchy of increasing escalation severity. In operation, the controller classifies an alert and flexibly implements an adaptable alert handler path that is established through the escalation components responsive to the classification and based on a source of the alert. A path can conclude with an escalation sender module commanding an escalation handler to implement a security countermeasure.

  • Patent number: 11972226
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that facilitate generating stable real-time textual translations in a target language of an input audio data stream that is recorded in a source language. An audio stream that is recorded in a first language is obtained. A partial transcription of the audio can be generated at each time interval in a plurality of successive time intervals. Each partial transcription can be translated into a second language that is different from the first language. Each translated partial transcription can be input to a model that determines whether a portion of an input translated partial transcription is stable. Based on the input translated partial transcription, the model identifies a portion of the translated partial transcription that is predicted to be stable. This stable portion of the translated partial transcription is provided for display on a user device.

  • Patent number: 11972234
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure are directed to a method for machine-learned code segment prediction for optimizing software development. The method includes obtaining an incomplete segment of code. The method includes processing the incomplete segment of code with a machine-learned code prediction model to obtain a sampled set of segment completion predictions that include code that completes the incomplete segment of code. The method includes determining an aggregated segment completion prediction from the sampled set of segment completion predictions. The method includes replacing a portion of the aggregated segment completion prediction with an input field, wherein the portion of the aggregated segment completion prediction is associated with a degree of certainty less than a threshold degree of certainty.

  • Patent number: 11971556
    Abstract: Optical systems may include MEMS mirrors having elliptical mirror plates. A laser scanning system may include a MEMS mirror that scans an incident light beam along a single scanning axis. The MEMS mirror may include an elliptical mirror plate having a semi-major axis that is aligned parallel or perpendicular to the rotational axis of the elliptical mirror plate. The incident light beam may have an elliptical cross-section, such that the incident light beam completely or substantially overlaps the reflecting surface of the elliptical mirror plate. After being reflected by the elliptical mirror plate, the light beam may be circularized via one or more shaping lenses disposed in the optical path of the reflected light beam, prior to projection of the light beam.

  • Patent number: 11974319
    Abstract: This document describes techniques and apparatuses for performing listen-before-talk procedures on bandwidth parts. These techniques include a user equipment (UE) initiating a first listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure on an active bandwidth part used in a radio resource control (RRC) connection between a UE and a base station. During the first LBT procedure, the UE receives a configuration message from the base station instructing the UE to change the active bandwidth part from the first bandwidth part to a second bandwidth part. Responsively, the UE changes the active bandwidth part and initiates a second LBT procedure on the second bandwidth part.

  • Patent number: 11974418
    Abstract: This document describes a light-sealing gasket with crossbar force distribution. The gasket can be used in an electronic device with a sensor package that is capable of transmitting and receiving signals and is positioned behind a display of the device. The gasket provides a shield between the receive signals and the transmit signals, prevents signal crosstalk, and protects the delicate panel layer of the display. Use of this gasket in an electronic device allows manufacturers to add more features to the device and enrich the user experience.
