The method and system may automatically transition between grid-tied and islanded without interruption of power to the one or more customer loads.

Abstract: State of the art approaches for 3D garment simulation approaches have the disadvantages that they 1) work on fixed garment type, 2) work on fixed body shapes, and 3) assume fixed garment topology. As a result, they do not offer a generic solution for garment simulation. Method and system disclosed herein use a combination of a body motion aware ARAP garment deformation and a Physics Enforcing Network (PEN), so as to generate garment simulations irrespective of garment type, body shapes, and garment topology, thus offering a generic solution.

Abstract: In some aspects, a computing system may use a machine learning model (e.g., a large language model) with a variety of query tokens as seeds to predict probabilities of future events. The system may then use the probabilities to determine the probability of a target event based on the query tokens. The system may then sort the query tokens by probability of the target event and select the top N query tokens (e.g., the top three events for a user that are predicted to be followed by the target event). The events indicated by the query tokens may be monitored for a given time period, and, if any of those events occur, the system may generate an alert.

Abstract: Approaches provide for generating a document (e.g., a contract) that satisfies constraints of at least one party in negotiation. Information can be obtained from parties seeking to negotiate document sections (e.g., clauses or provisions) of a document such as a contract. Ranking values for a plurality of candidate contracts can be determined based on information from the parties, including their preferences for different sections (e.g., provisions) of the contract.
