Abstract: A computer-implemented method for managing operation of an application includes: authenticating a user of the application or a user device associated with a user of the application; and establishing a session with the application and enabling access to the application for the user if the user or the user device is authenticated. The method further includes determining, after the user or the user device is authenticated, whether the user or the user device is or remains present. The method further includes maintaining the session and the enabling of access to the application if it is determined that the user or the user device is or remains present; and terminating the session and disabling access to the application if it is determined that the user or the user device is absent for a predetermined duration.

Abstract: A system and a method for monitoring activities of an object. The method comprises the steps of: providing a depth image capturing at least a part of the object and an item of supporting furniture, wherein the item of supporting furniture is provided with a support surface arranged to physically support the object to be disposed thereon, and the object is movable relative to the item of supporting furniture; processing the depth image to determine an activity of the object and the item of supporting furniture including the support surface being captured in the depth image; analyse the objects posture and location using AI models that are trained using depth images and/or using the skeleton of the object; analyses the intention of the object's movement; and generating an alert upon a determination of the activity of the object being identified as a risky activity.

Abstract: A tool that is either hand-guided, or machine-guided, for performing surface treatments, such as mopping, of overhead surfaces includes a head for carrying an agitator having a generally planar face that is applied against the overhead surface being treated in uses. A transmission transmits power from a drive motor to the agitator, and an interface on the head is provided for connection to a mounting device by which the head is oriented and guided.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for training a natural language translation model. The computer-implemented method includes: processing one or more sets of electronic parallel documents to obtain a plurality of aligned parallel sentences; creating a first training set including a subset of the plurality of aligned parallel sentences; and training the natural language translation model in a first stage using the first training set. The computer-implemented method further includes: modifying the first training set based on translation errors detected after the first stage of training; creating a second training set based on the modified first training set and at least some of the plurality of aligned parallel sentences not in the first training set; and training the natural language translation model in a second stage using the second training set so as to improve translation performance of the natural language translation model.
