  • Patent number: 11831774
    Abstract: A method of authenticating devices for secure data exchange. A system receives a scheduling request and generates a ledger of participants authorized to be admitted to a communication session during a time window. For each participant, the ledger includes a participant identifier, a participant key, and a meeting identifier corresponding to the communication session. The participant key and meeting identifier are encoded into a short-code which is redeemed, by the participants, for an access token authorizing a peer-to-peer connection between devices within a meeting room during the communication session. The participants include a host who has special privileges during the communication session, and one or more clients.

  • Patent number: 11698915
    Abstract: A system performs continuous delivery of a data pipeline on a cloud platform. The system receives a specification of the data pipeline that is split into smaller specifications of data pipeline units. The system identifies a target cloud platform and generates a deployment package for each data pipeline unit for the target cloud platform. The system creates a connection with the target cloud platform and uses the connection to provision computing infrastructure on the target cloud platform for the data pipeline unit according to the system configuration of the data pipeline unit. The data pipeline may be implemented as a data mesh that is a directed acyclic graph of nodes, each node representing a data pipeline unit. Different portions of the data mesh may be modified independent of each other. Partial results stored in different portions of the data mesh may be recomputed starting from different points in time.

  • Patent number: 11481647
    Abstract: A system trains a machine learning based model to predict the likelihood of an outcome for an entity, for example, a user. The system determines, for a particular prediction for a user, impact scores that indicate how each feature of the user impacted the prediction for that user. The feature impact scores are ranked to select features for the user that had the highest impact on the prediction. The system generates a description for the high impact features and provides the description, for example, for display via a user interface.

  • Patent number: 11467810
    Abstract: A build system stores source code in source code repositories and generates deployment artifacts from a build pipeline. The build system receives requirements associated with certification criteria for certifying a deployment artifact based on the source code. The build system executes a build pipeline including build tasks that compile the source code to generate executable files storing executable instructions. The build system evaluates the certification criteria based on results of execution of the build tasks. The build system determines whether the deployment artifact is a certified deployment artifact based on the result of evaluation of the certification criteria. The build system stores a software asset information document in a source code repository identifying software assets build using the source code repository, for example, as a YAML file.

  • Patent number: 11468364
    Abstract: A system trains a machine learning based model to predict the likelihood of an outcome for an entity, for example, a user. The system determines, for a particular prediction for a user, feature impact scores that indicate how each feature of the user impacted the prediction for that user. The feature impact scores are ranked to determine top driver features for the user that had the highest impact on the prediction. The system generates a human understandable description for the top driver features. The system provides the generated description for the top driver features for display, for example, via a user interface.

  • Patent number: 10971256
    Abstract: A computerized system comprising a social robot for interacting with a patient in order to improve the patient's adherence to a health or medical regime. A patient is instructed to perform a health activity (e.g., take medication, step on scale, measure glucose, play a game) at certain intervals in order to reach a specified goal or expected result. The results of the health activity are recorded in a wireless health device and transmitted to a computer. The computer interprets the result of health activity and communicates an action to the robot. If the patient performs the activity within a specified interval and results are consistent with the specified goal or expected result, the robot communicates a positive reaction. If the patient does not perform the activity within a specified interval, or if the results are not consistent with the specified goal or expected result, the robot communicates a negative reaction.

  • Patent number: 10562717
    Abstract: An automated method and system for transporting vials from multiple upstream locations to a downstream location and for combining N number of conveyor lanes from N number of upstream location (e.g., capping stations) down to one conveyor lane. The system is adapted to transport vials from a more-distant upstream location faster than vials from a closer upstream location so that they reach the downstream location at approximately the same time. Guide members placed at an angle to the traveling axis of the conveyor lanes divert the vials onto a single conveyor lane for transporting the vials to a downstream location.
