  • Publication number: 20220116743
    Abstract: The present application discloses systems, methods, and computer-readable media that can utilize a handheld-movement-detection model to detect whether a computing device is moved by hand or otherwise by a person within a vehicle. For instance, the disclosed systems can receive movement data from a computing device and generate filtered signals. Subsequently, the disclosed systems can utilize the handheld-movement-detection model to convert the filtered signals into a binary movement-classification signal (based on a signal threshold) to indicate the presence of handheld movement of a device. Furthermore, the disclosed systems can also utilize movement data from a computing device to detect whether the computing device is mounted and/or to detect vehicular movements.

  • Publication number: 20210287262
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a vehicle-motion-analysis system that can align axes for a provider device and a corresponding transportation vehicle based on the provider device's location and motion data as a basis for generating driving-event scores for particular driving events. In particular, the disclosed systems can generate axes-rotation parameters that align axes of a provider device with axes of a transportation vehicle. In addition, the disclosed systems can identify motion paths, motion patterns, or other driving behaviors that occur during particular driving events. Further, the disclosed systems can generate driving-event scores for such driving events and can customize a graphical user interface based on the driving-event scores to reflect a provider rating and/or a location rating.

  • Patent number: 10867171
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for recognizing and extracting data from a form depicted within an image of a document are described. The method may include receiving the image of the document, the image depicting the form and data contained one the form. The method may also include transforming the image of the document to a set of one or more key, value pairs by processing the image of the document with a sequence of two or more trained machine learning based image analysis processes, wherein keys are relevant to forms of the type depicted in the form, and wherein each value is associated with a key. The method may also include generating a data output that comprises the set of key, value pairs for textual data recognized and extracted from the form depicted in the image.
