Patent number: 11677702Abstract: Methods and devices are presented for managing communications in an ephemeral communication system. In some embodiments, messages in the system are analyzed to determine a complexity value for the message. This may be based on various algorithms, models, or system associations.

Patent number: 11652755Abstract: Techniques for adaptive telemetry using cooperative selective summarization metric reporting are described. Upon an impairment event preventing a client from transmitting raw log data to a server, the client switches to generating summarization data based on the raw log data and sends this summarization data to the server. The server may instruct the client which dimensions of data are to be generated and which time apertures apply for the generation of summary statistics. The client may also switch from a first-in first-out (FIFO) transmission mode to a last-in first-out (LIFO) transmission mode for eventually resending the raw log data, providing the server the most current information as timely as possible while leaving older data for later transmission.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2021Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Akhilesh Mritunjai

Patent number: 11610112Abstract: A method for the computer-assisted configuration of a data-driven model on the basis of training data is provided. The method is characterised in that the series of measurements are subjected to a suitable preprocessing process comprising a binning step, wherein measurement characteristics which existed during the measurement of the measurement values in question are taken into consideration. A suitable data-driven model such as a neural network is then learned on the basis of the pre-processed series of measurements. This learned data-driven model makes it possible to accurately forecast target vectors in accordance with associated series of measurements. The method can, for example, be used to analyse optical spectra. More particularly, it is possible to predict using the learned model whether the tissue sample for which an optical spectrum was detected represents diseased tissue.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2018Date of Patent: March 21, 2023Inventors: Thomas Engel, Alexander Michael Gigler
