Abstract: The present invention generally relates to systems and methods for the efficient and secure creation of unique identifier associated with submitted URLs and the transmission and processing of encrypted signals by a receiving device, and in particular an audio transmission and processing of encrypted unique inaudible signals by a receiving device that may direct the receiving device to initiate an action, such as directing the receiving device to request the associated URL to then access a specific Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or other digital content. The decoding and processing of the transmitted signal is operated on prior to the signal being played through the receiving devices speaker system(s). Consideration to the available signal bit rate is an important aspect of the systems operational integrity.

Abstract: As digital assets are created and shared, design components that comprise those digital assets are curated, organized, and tracked so as to allow meaningful relationships to be established between shared assets and design components. The tracking that underlies such relationships is provided by metadata associated with a given design component. This metadata may include information such as an asset identifier that identifies a source digital asset from which the design component was extracted; a version identifier that identifies a version of the source digital asset; an author identifier that identifies an author of the source digital asset; and a layer identifier that can be used to reveal the context in which the design component was derived from the source asset. This metadata allows relationships to be established between a design component and the digital assets that incorporate that design component, thus facilitating asset and component tracking and update notification broadcasting.

Abstract: In example embodiments, techniques are provided for using machine learning to predict railroad track geometry exceedances to enable proactive maintenance. A machine learning model of a rail operational analytics application may be trained to directly output a probability of future railroad track geometry exceedances for each portion of track of a railroad. Training may be performed using all available railroad track data, and the task of selecting which data is relevant to predicting probability of railroad track geometry exceedances may be devolved to the machine learning model. Further, assumptions about the specific railroad and data characteristics may be avoided, providing the machine learning model flexibility, and allowing for dynamic changes in the problem formulation.
