Publication number: 20200037112Abstract: In aspects of location correlation in a region, a mobile device implements a location module that determines a current location of the mobile device in a region within communication range of a radio system based on location data received in radio signals from the radio system. The location module determines region coordinates at the current location of the mobile device in the region. The location module can then associate the region coordinates at the current location of the mobile device in the region with pixel grid coordinates determined from a digital image view as captured by a camera system in the region, and generate a location mapping of the region based on the current location and subsequent locations of the mobile device in the region. The location mapping correlates the locations of the mobile device in the region based on the pixel grid coordinates at the respective locations.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2019Publication date: January 30, 2020Applicant: Motorola Mobility LLCInventors: Vivek Kumar Tyagi, Douglas Alfred Lautner, Nikhil Ambha Madhusudhana, Sudhir C.

Publication number: 20200034427Abstract: An architecture and processes enable computer learning and developing an understanding of arbitrary natural language text through collaboration with humans in the context of joint problem solving. The architecture ingests the text and then syntactically and semantically processes the text to infer an initial understanding of the text. The initial understanding is captured in a story model of semantic and frame structures. The story model is then tested through computer generated questions that are posed to humans through interactive dialog sessions. The knowledge gleaned from the humans is used to update the story model as well as the computing system's current world model of understanding. The process is repeated for multiple stories over time, enabling the computing system to grow in knowledge and thereby understand stories of increasingly higher reading comprehension levels.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2017Publication date: January 30, 2020Applicant: Elemental Cognition LLCInventors: David Ferrucci, Mike Barborak, David Buchanan, Greg Burnham, Jennifer Chu--Carroll, Aditya Kalyanpur, Adam Lally, Stefano Pacifico, Chang Wang

Publication number: 20200034038Abstract: I/O storage processing behavior is controlled on a storage system based on an application instance of an I/O request. I/O storage processing behavior may be associated with application instances on a host by creating a table or other data structure that assigns identifiers to each application instance and specifies associate behavior(s) with the application instance. The table may associate behavior to application instances based on logical groupings of application instances, which may be based on existing defined groups or other logical entities, for example, a container or VM. A host may communicate the table to a storage system, and the storage system may store information from the table. An I/O request on the host may be tagged with an ID from the table, and sent to the storage system, which controls the I/O storage processing of the I/O request according to the tagged ID.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2018Publication date: January 30, 2020Applicant: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Kurumurthy Gokam, Arieh Don, Gopinath Marappan
