Abstract: Techniques for implementing multiple wakeword detectors on a single device are described. A digital signal processor (DSP) of the device may initially include an untrained wakeword detection component. The wakeword detection component of the DSP may be trained by engaging a user to speak particular utterances. Once a companion application is configured to implement a wakeword detection component, the companion application's wakeword detection component may be trained specific to the user of the device. Once the companion application's wakeword detection component is trained, the DSP wakeword detection component may be deactivated or its accuracy adjusted.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically prioritizing computing resource configurations for remediation include receiving information describing configuration issues that may result in impaired system performance or unauthorized access, parsing that information and automatically analyzing configuration details of a user's private computing environment to determine that assets provide an environment in which configuration issues may be exploited to produce undesired results. Such systems and methods can generate assessments indicating the likelihood an issue can be exploited and potential impacts of the issue being exploited. Such systems and methods can use these assessments to generate a report prioritizing remediation of specific configuration issues for specific vulnerable assets based on the actual configuration of the user's computing resources and the data managed using those resources.
Abstract: The invention discloses a method and a system for achieving a unified flow control system for multiple camera devices.

Abstract: Devices and techniques are generally described for ranking of search results based on multiple objectives. A first ranking for a plurality of search results is determined using a first machine learning model optimized for a first objective for ranking search results. A second objective for ranking search results is determined. A constraint is determined for the at least one second objective. The first machine learning model is iteratively updated to generate an updated machine learning model by minimizing a cost of the first objective subject to the constraint, wherein violations of the constraint are penalized using a penalty term. A second ranking for the plurality of search results is determined using the updated machine learning model. The search results of the second ranking are reordered relative to the search results of the first ranking.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a service divides one or more time series for a network key performance (KPI) into a plurality of time series chunks. The service clusters the plurality of time series chunks into a plurality of clusters. The service identifies a sketch that represents a particular one of the clusters. The service associates a label with the identified sketch. The service applies the label to a new KPI time series by matching the sketch to the new KPI time series.
Abstract: Systems and methods to localize objects for mapping applications may comprise a vehicle having an imaging device, a location sensor, and an edge processor. Using imaging data from the imaging device, location data from the location sensor, and bounding box data associated with objects, three-dimensional models of environments may be reconstructed using structure from motion algorithms and/or direct triangulation algorithms. After aligning the reconstructions to real-world environments based on the location data, objects may be accurately localized relative to real-world environments.
