Abstract: Embodiments are directed to the generation of a token associated with a status. The status of the token may affect how the token is treated and the types of restrictions placed on the token. The status of the token may indicate that the token is generated based on verification of secure user data. Alternatively, the status of the token may indicate that the token is generated based on insufficient user data and, as such, restrictions may be imposed on the token. The token requestor may be a mobile application, such as a merchant mobile application provisioned on a user device. In response to a token request from the merchant, the token provider issues tokens with varying status based on a confidence level. The status of the token may be indicated in terms of token assurance level.

Abstract: Aspects discussed herein may relate to methods and techniques for embedding constrained and unconstrained optimization programs as layers in a neural network architecture. Systems are provided that implement a method of solving a particular optimization problem by a neural network architecture. Prior systems required use of external software to pre-solve optimization programs so that previously determined parameters could be used as fixed input in the neural network architecture. Aspects described herein may transform the structure of common optimization problems/programs into forms suitable for use in a neural network. This transformation may be invertible, allowing the system to learn the solution to the optimization program using gradient descent techniques via backpropagation of errors through the neural network architecture. Thus these optimization layers may be solved via operation of the neural network itself.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for generating transgene-free plants are described. In particular, the transgene-free plants are regenerated by transient expression of morphogenic regulators in a plant cell that is precisely edited using a gene-editing methodology. Also, provided are transformed plants, plant cell, tissues, and seeds in which a target gene is edited, but non-transgenic.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for manipulating a communication acceptance screen, manipulating an interactive communication acceptance icon, and restricting access to accounts based on voice communication parameters. In particular, when a communication is detected from one device to another device, that communication may be risky. Thus, the risk is mitigated by giving a user information about the source of the communication to give a user a chance to reject the communication. In addition, in instances where the user accepts the communication, the system enables monitoring the communication and restricting any accounts that are disclosed within the communication.

Abstract: A method receiving at least one transcribed speech file of at least one person; identifying a plurality of utterance-delimited multiword units in the at least one transcribed speech file; generating a plurality of utterance-based data vectors corresponding to the plurality of utterance-delimited multiword units by assigning a numerical data token to each word in each utterance-delimited multiword unit; determining at least one utterance-delimited multiword unit from the plurality of utterance-delimited multiword units having question-indicative word patterns by inputting the plurality of utterance-based data vectors into at least one machine learning model, configured to identify the question-indicative word patterns by computing a probability of a word or groups of words in each of the plurality of utterance-delimited multiword units; and identifying at least one question in the at least one transcribed speech file of the speech of the at least one person using the question-indicative word patterns.
Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automatically testing a cloud-hosted application is disclosed. A test object is defined for at least one service of the cloud-hosted application. The test object comprises an API request configured to be transmitted to the at least one service of the cloud-hosted application via an API interface or a service call configured to invoke the at least one service directly. The test object is transmitted to the at least one service of the cloud-hosted application. The test object is processed at the at least one service of the cloud-hosted application to generate an API formatted response and associated service log data. The cloud-hosted application is validated based on the API formatted response and the associated service log data.
Abstract: Methods and systems for routing micro front ends on a web page using query parameters to perform deep linking. In some aspects, the system determines a set of web applications to be included in a micro front end to generate for display information for a web page. For each web application, the system determines a set of components and uses a query parameter to associate the web application with a component via a deep link. In response to detecting a first user action, the system determines a requested update to a first web application in the set of web applications and identifies a substitute component for the first web application. The system adjusts a query parameter associated with the first web application to correspond to a deep link for the substitute component and updates the content of the web page with the adjusted query parameter.
