Abstract: Text independent speaker recognition models can be utilized by an automated assistant to verify a particular user spoke a spoken utterance and/or to identify the user who spoke a spoken utterance. Implementations can include automatically updating a speaker embedding for a particular user based on previous utterances by the particular user. Additionally or alternatively, implementations can include verifying a particular user spoke a spoken utterance using output generated by both a text independent speaker recognition model as well as a text dependent speaker recognition model. Furthermore, implementations can additionally or alternatively include prefetching content for several users associated with a spoken utterance prior to determining which user spoke the spoken utterance.

Abstract: System and techniques for delayed transaction matching are described herein. A received transaction request, that includes an original value used to match against another transaction request, has the original value modified to create a modified value that is less likely to match another transaction request. A data structure entry is written for the transaction request with corresponding value field in the entry including the modified value. After a time period, or a delay period, is elapsed, the entry is rewritten to change the modified value to the original value of the transaction request to end the delay applied to the transaction request.

Abstract: As an example, a computing device may broadcast, via a software application, a message to multiple computing devices requesting devices to participate in an activity occurring at a particular time at a particular location. A subset of the multiple computing devices may gather at the particular location prior to the particular time to participate in the activity. Prior to the particular time, the computing device may discover the subset and create a peer-to-peer network. Based on a set of attributes associated with each computing device in the subset, the computing device may assign individual computing devices in the subset a role and a position. Each of the computing devices in the subset may be positioned in the particular location according to the position and perform the role at the particular time to collectively perform the activity.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a spray boom for an agricultural machine in which the boom is arranged as a truss with interior diagonal struts of the truss being configured to absorb tension and compression energy imparted by deflections over the length of the boom with such energy being dissipated as heat. In one aspect, the diagonal strut could comprise a rod moveable with respect to a tube with a polymer, such as an elastomeric material, arranged in the tube to dampen the movement. The tension and compression of the diagonal strut could subject the dampener to a shearing force which could be absorbed by the dampener rather than transferred to the machine.
