  • Publication number: 20240176960
    Abstract: Techniques for transcribing and/or summarizing multimedia collaboration sessions are discussed herein. For example, users can communicate within a teleconferencing meeting associated with a channel. In some examples, a first machine learning model may be configured to receive audio-visual data and user interaction data (e.g., selected emojis, detected gestures, messages or text input by a user, a thread of messages, etc.) and output a teleconferencing meeting summary. In some examples, the teleconferencing meeting summary can include one or more highlights, action items, and/or artificial intelligence (AI) notes generated using a machine learning model(s).

  • Publication number: 20240070672
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for detecting actionable transaction risks. The method includes grouping an inbound event related to a transaction with a target event group and determining an actionable group of events that are deemed high risk and a non-actionable group of non-actionable events that are deemed low risk. The method also includes evaluating the target event group relative to the actionable and non-actionable groups of events. This includes computing a first distance between the target event group and the non-actionable group and a second distance between the target event group and actionable group. The first distance is compared with the second distance to determine if the target event group, including the inbound event, is closer to the actionable group or to the nonactionable group.

  • Publication number: 20130322712
    Abstract: A system compares gray scale medical images and provides a composite color image for display on a monitor. The system substitutes one or two of the RGB components of a first image with a corresponding RGB component of a second image to provide RGB pixel luminance value component data representing a composite image in color. An acquisition processor acquires first and second gray scale medical images represented by RGB pixel luminance value components. An image data processor aligns the first and second gray scale medical images and substitutes one of the RGB components of the first image with a corresponding RGB component of the second image to provide RGB pixel luminance value component data representing a composite image in color. An output processor outputs the composite image for display.

  • Patent number: 8391648
    Abstract: An imaging system compensates for mask frame misalignment with non-mask frames in an image sequence of patient anatomy. The system includes an image data processor. The image data processor determines a compensation zoom factor for individual image frames of an image sequence of an object of interest in response to data indicating distance between the object and a radiation detector for the individual image frames. The processor then associates individual zoom factors with corresponding individual image frames of the image sequence. The individual zoom factors associated with corresponding individual image frames of the image sequence are stored in a repository. An individual determined zoom factor is applied to align an associated corresponding image frame with a mask frame to provide an aligned image frame. Data representing an image difference frame, comprising a difference between data representing the aligned image frame and a mask frame, is determined.

  • Publication number: 20060242085
    Abstract: An automated method provides an efficient arrangement for setting certain financial transactions using a debit point of sale transaction network, as opposed to routing over a credit network. The method and arrangement uses an onsite database of bank identification numbers to conduct a preliminary assessment of whether a particular card is debit capable, and appropriately processes the transaction information based on the preliminary assessment. The system preferably is also updated when a financial transaction is successfully completed as a debit transaction which the database did not initially identify as being debit capable. In this way, the database is continuously updated and over time, a more accurate database is achieved. The system can also be networked, such that information between databases is shard and improved, based on the network experience.

  • Publication number: 20050091218
    Abstract: A system and process for capturing all regionally supported data regarding a real estate property for sale, and a system and process for loading that captured data to a regional multiple listing database system, using a portable computing device is detailed. A general purpose portable computing device (such as the Palm OS personal data assistant PCD, or the handheld Microsoft Pocket PC, HPC) is capable of running custom software applications for the collection and display of information and can be configured to store collected information in persistent storage, for later retrieval and manipulation, on the portable computing device. A regional multiple listing service maintains a database and search engine of all properties listed for sale in a specific geographic region, and which are listed for sale with a licensed real estate agent.
