Abstract: An online system detects an anomaly associated with an item selection made by a picker for fulfilling an order of a user of an online system. The system generates a prompt for execution by a machine-learned model trained as a large language model. The prompt comprises a chat log between the picker and the user. The system provides the prompt to the machine-learned model for execution. The system receives, as output from the machine-learned model and based on the chat log, a description indicating whether the anomaly is attributable to the user. The system determines, based on the output from the machine-learned model, that the item selection is not attributable to the user. Responsive to determining that the item selection is not attributable to the user, the system provides a notification to a client device of the user to confirm whether the item selection is approved by the user.

Abstract: An online system may prompt a shopper to capture one or more images of items on a checkout belt of a retailer, wherein the items are for fulfilling orders for one or more users of an online service. An online system may provide the one or more images to a machine learning model configured to classify an item as a product. An online system may classify the items to one or more products by applying the machine learning model to the images. An online system may for each user, matching the classified products to the user's order. An online system may obtain an annotated image of the items highlighting classified products which do not match the user's order. An online system may provide to the shopper the annotated image with a notification of a potential discrepancy.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for acquiring and managing data regarding external IP (EIP) addresses of services offered in a trusted public cloud environment. The system monitors an application program interface of a service executing in a trusted public cloud environment for occurrence of an event that is related to an EIP of the service. When an event is detected, the system extract EIP related data and metadata of the service, generates a message with the extracted EIP data, and posts the message to a central message queue. The system monitors the message queue for the presence of a new message. Upon detecting a new message, the system processes the message, extracts EIP related data. metadata, and identifies an action. A central database that stores EIP related information of services executing in the trusted public cloud environment is updated based on the identified action.

Abstract: A robotic system is provided for performing rearrangement tasks guided by a natural language instruction. The system can include a number of neural networks used to determine a selected rearrangement of the objects in accordance with the natural language instruction. A target object predictor network processes a point cloud of the scene and the natural language instruction to identify a set of query objects that are to-be-rearranged. A language conditioned prior network processes the point cloud, natural language instruction, and the set of query objects to sample a distribution of rearrangements to generate a number of sets of pose offsets for the set of query objects. A discriminator network then processes the samples to generate scores for the samples. The samples may be refined until a score for at least one of the sample generated by the discriminator network is above a threshold value.

Abstract: Methods and systems are employed for searching a first user's calendar schedule for a meeting with a second user, providing an offer from a merchant based on a user's calendar schedule and automatically applying the offer from the merchant based on arrival of the first user and second user at the merchant's location. The verification of the presence of the first user and the second user may be based on identifying the location of each user, and offers from merchant locations may be provided based on the respective locations of the users.

Abstract: Systems and subsystems for articulating an end effector of a stapler are disclosed. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to systems, devices, and subsystems for attachments for robotic surgeries. The surgical instrument is a robotic attachment.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, devices, and subsystems for robotic surgeries. The surgical instrument is a robotic attachment that includes an articulation subsystem comprising a rotatable shaft, a distal channel retainer coupled to an end effector that is pivotable about an articulation pivot point, an articulation bushing slidable between a proximal position and a distal position, an articulation rod extending distally from the articulation bushing and coupled at a distal end to the distal channel retainer; and a rack movable with respect to the longitudinal axis of the rotatable shaft. Movement of the rack with respect to the longitudinal axis imparts an axial force onto the articulation bushing moving the articulation bushing between the proximal position and the distal position. Movement of the articulation bushing between the distal position and the proximal position actuates the articulation rod causing the distal channel retainer to pivot about the articulation pivot point.

Biosignals generated in response to the rendered stimuli are received from the user to a wearable biosignal sensing device. Received biosignals are classified based on the modified stimuli, resulting in a classified selection, which is returned to the user application.
