  • Patent number: 11238394
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains answers by a candidate to assessments related to qualifications for one or more opportunities. Next, the system applies a machine learning model to the answers and additional qualifications for an additional opportunity to produce a match score between the candidate and the additional opportunity. The system then compares the match score to a threshold to determine a recommendation related to applying to the additional opportunity by the candidate. Finally, the system outputs the recommendation in association with the additional opportunity.

  • Patent number: 11240206
    Abstract: An apparatus receives an upper layer packet that includes data from a source device, a virtual private network (VPN) identification, a destination address, and a destination option type. The apparatus authenticates the upper layer packet by comparing the VPN identification of the received upper layer packet to a customer VPN identification. The apparatus determines whether the apparatus recognizes the destination option type of the upper layer packet. The apparatus discards the upper layer packet on a condition that the apparatus does not recognize the destination option type. The apparatus decapsulates the upper layer packet into a lower layer packet and transmits the decapsulated packet to a destination on a condition that the apparatus recognizes the destination option type.

  • Patent number: 11240916
    Abstract: An electronic device, a method and apparatus for producing an electronic device, and a composition therefor are disclosed. An adhesive material is applied in a first pattern on a surface of a receiver substrate. A carrier having a metal foil disposed thereon is brought into contact with the first substrate such that a portion of the metal foil contacts the adhesive material. The adhesive material includes a first polymer, a second polymer, and a conductive carbon black dispersion, and is activated using at least one of mechanical pressure and heat while the portion of the metal foil is in contact with the adhesive material. The first substrate and the second substrate are separated, whereby the portion of the metal foil is transferred to the first substrate. The adhesive is electrically conductive to maximize the possibility of maintaining electrical connectivity even when there is a break in the metal foil.

  • Patent number: 11238228
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure can comprise systems and methods for creating and modifying named entity recognition models. The system can use two or more existing named entity recognition models to output responses to natural language queries for which the models have not yet been trained. When the output from the two or more models match, the query and the resulting output can be stored as training data for a new named entity recognition model. If the output from the two or models do not match, the query and the outputs can be stored in an exceptions file for additional review. In some embodiments, the system can comprise one or more processors and a display for providing a user interface (UI).

  • Patent number: 11236742
    Abstract: A vacuum pump includes a hollow container that has a vacuum port and internal chamber walls. The vacuum port opens to an exterior of the container and the chamber walls define chambers that are in fluid communication with the vacuum port. There are flexible bladders disposed in the chambers. The flexible bladders include vents that open through the container to the exterior. A plunger in the container includes arms that extend into the chambers such that each of the flexible bladders is situated between one of the arms and one of the chamber walls. The plunger is moveable between a home position and an upstroke position to compress and deflate the flexible bladders via the vents and thereby change the volume of the flexible bladders. The change in the volume draws a vacuum through the vacuum port.

  • Patent number: 11240320
    Abstract: A document modification event management system for notification of specific edits made to electronic content items, and a method of determining the relevance of the modification. As an example, a first user may make an edit to a portion of a document. A second user may receive a notification of this edit if the system determines the edit was relevant to the second user. In addition, during review of an electronic content item, a reader may select a specific portion of content and view the modifications that have occurred to only the selected portion. These tools can provide collaborative document users the ability to more readily monitor document development and stay up-to-date with changes that are important to them.

  • Patent number: 11238142
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for dialog-based enrollment of individual users for single- and/or multi-modal recognition by an automated assistant, as well as determining how to respond to a particular user's request based on the particular user being enrolled and/or recognized. Rather than requiring operation of a graphical user interface for individual enrollment, dialog-based enrollment enables users to enroll themselves (or others) by way of a human-to-computer dialog with the automated assistant.

  • Patent number: 11235667
    Abstract: A method for multi-speed electric vehicle shift control for damping an acceleration oscillation of the electric vehicle. The method includes determining a percentage of accelerator pedal travel and then retrieving a clutch calibration, a first electric motor calibration, and a second electric motor calibration correlating with the determined percentage of accelerator pedal travel. The method then applies the clutch calibration in actuating a clutch-to-clutch gear ratio change, thereby generating a vibration fluctuation in a first axle, and applies the first electric motor calibration in modulating a first electric motor to dampen the vibration fluctuation. The clutch actuation and first electric motor modulation together produces a first axle torque oscillation.

  • Patent number: 11238221
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for estimating the language used in a user communication. One method includes an operation for utilizing counters to track use of languages by a user of an online service, the counters being updated based on interactions of the user in the online service. Further, the method includes operations for detecting a text entered by the user and obtaining, by a language classifier, an initial prediction having probabilities for the languages that the text is in the language. A language distribution prediction is calculated based on the initial prediction and the user counters, where the language distribution prediction comprises a probability, for each language, that the text is in the language. Further, the method includes operations for selecting a language used in the text based on the language distribution prediction and causing presentation on a display of a message in the selected language.
