  • Patent number: 12299406
    Abstract: Relevance scores may be determined based on text included in a document. The text may be divided into a text portions, with the relevance scores being determined based on a comparison of a text portion of the plurality of text portions with a criterion specified in natural language. A subset of the plurality of text portions may be selected based on the plurality of relevance scores, with each of the subset of the plurality of text portions having a relevance score surpassing a threshold. A criteria evaluation prompt may be sent to a remote text generation modeling system via a communication interface. The criteria evaluation prompts may include an instruction to evaluate one or more of the subset of text portions against the criterion.

  • Publication number: 20250110235
    Abstract: An aircraft-based system for providing forward-looking terrain profiling and downward-looking altimetry via a single active electronically scanned array (AESA) orients the AESA through a sequence of desired directions, e.g., according to a predetermined scan pattern. At each desired direction, the AESA scans for ground-based targets, determining a range and Doppler velocity to each detected target. The AESA additionally orients downward, e.g., during a dedicated altimetry frame and with the assistance of inertial sensors to determine the orientation of the AESA, to scan terrain directly below the aircraft and provide a precise estimate of the altitude of the aircraft. Based on the determined ranges and velocities, the radar system determines a pointing angle and vertical/horizontal distances between the aircraft and each identified ground-based target.

  • Publication number: 20250005300
    Abstract: A regular expression prompt may be determined by combining a regular expression prompt template with input text from an input document. The regular expression prompt template may include a natural language instruction to identify one or more regular expressions from the input text and one or more fillable portions designated for filling with the input text. The regular expression prompt may be sent to a large language model for evaluation, and one or more regular expressions may be identified based on a response received from the large language model. The regular expressions may be used to disaggregate the input text, and the disaggregated text portions may be used to determine a structured document based on the input document. The structured document may be used to determine a response to a query of the input document.

  • Publication number: 20240241083
    Abstract: A system and method for determining the changes in resonance frequency in crystal microbalance (CM) sensors and the resulting changes in the determination of incremental mass on the CM sensors caused by temperature. Dual mode resonances and coefficients are used in a deconvolution process to determine and extract the frequency shift caused by temperature to provide the temperature compensated incremental mass (?M). In one embodiment, dual mode analysis is provided using a mass mode (e.g., the c-mode fundamental frequency (fc100)) and a temperature mode (e.g., the anharmonic frequency (fc102)) and associated coefficients. In other embodiments that are more sensitive to temperature changes, dual mode analysis is provided using the b-mode fundamental frequency (fb100) as the temperature-mode and associated coefficients.
