Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to providing in-person audio access for remote users. A remote access audio system can detect in-person audio through an array of microphones installed at a site. The remote access audio system can process the in-person audio using speech recognition techniques to determine that an in-person conversation is occurring. The remote access audio system can apply a model to the in-person conversation to determine whether the conversation is relevant to a remote user and transmit an option for the remote user to remotely join or be added to the conversation.

Abstract: A filter assembly for a refrigerator includes a filter, a port, and a cam. The filter has a protrusion extending therefrom. The port is configured to engage the filter. The port is configured to move to transition the filter to an activated position. The port is configured to move to transition the filter to a deactivated position. The cam is configured to interfere with the protrusion in response to a partial connection between the filter and the port to prevent the filter from transitioning to the activated position. The cam is configured to provide clearance for the protrusion in response to a full connection between the filter and the port to facilitate the filter transitioning to the activated position.

Abstract: Processes for producing an oxazaborolidines and their use in animal feeds. One process reacts an amino alcohol with a boronic acid with azeotropic removal of water to provide a mixture of the starting materials and an oxazaborolidine end product; and purifying the oxazaborolidine end product. One purification step dissolves a bicarboxylic acid in water and mixes this solution with the end product to precipitate out the starting material as a salt and produce an oxazaborolidine product filtrate. An alternative process reacts amino alcohol with trihydridoboron (BH3) in an organic solvent; and immediately alkylates the unalkylated intermediate compound produced using Alkyl Lithium to provide the oxazaborolidine end product.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a filter, a receiver, a manifold, and a cam. The filter has a handle extending therefrom. The receiver defines a cavity configured to receive the filter. The manifold is configured to engage an opposing end of the filter relative to the handle via axial rotation of the filter. The manifold is configured to pivot upward to transition the filter to an activated position. The manifold is configured to pivot downward to transition the filter to a deactivated position. The cam is configured to interfere with the handle in response to partial axial rotation of the filter to prevent the filter from pivoting upward to the activated position. The cam is configured to provide clearance for the handle in response to full axial rotation of the filter to facilitate the filter pivoting upward to the activated position.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure relate to the optical identification of telecommunications equipment. In examples, a user interacts with an application to capture image data relating to a device according to instructions presented to the user. The application may further generate metadata, such as user responses to one or more questions. The image data and/or metadata are evaluated using a machine learning model to generate an equipment classification for devices pictured therein. The data may also be used to generate an equipment configuration for the device, as well as an operational state (e.g., based on one or more indicators present on the device, log data, etc.). Accordingly, such information may be used to update a pre-existing inventory record for the device, or generate a new inventory record. In other examples, such information is used to generate one or more predicted issues and associated actions to troubleshoot the device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates, in general, to improved processes for the preparation of 4-{8-amino-3-[(2S)-1-(but-2-ynoyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl]imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazin-1-yl}-N-(pyridin-2-yl)-benzamide, particularly large-scale processes for manufacturing 4-{8-amino-3-[(2S)-1-(but-2-ynoyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl]imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazin-1-yl}-N-(pyridin-2-yl)benzamide and intermediates used in such processes.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems for providing multiple egress routes from a telecommunications network for a client of the network. In general, the system provides for a client of the network to receive intended packets of information through multiple connections to the network such that load balancing and failover services for traffic to the customer are provided. The process and system allow for telecommunications network to utilize a common next-hop value of announced border gateway protocol (BGP) routes to advertise multiple routes to reach a destination customer network or address. By utilizing a common next-hop value in the announced BGP information, the devices of the network may load balance communication packets to the destination customer or address among the multiple egress locations from the network, as well as providing fast failover to alternate routes when a failure at the network or customer occurs.

Abstract: A sportsbook odds optimization and parlay correlation analysis platform may be provided. The platform may be configured to assess the correlation value for proposition bet parlays. The platform may be employed by a sportsbooks or other betting event hosting establishment. The platform may be configured to establish parameters for processing at least one parlay offered to the establishment. The parameters may include, for example, but not be limited to, a correlation value and a payout type. Next, at least one parlay may be received for processing. A correlation value and a payout value associated with the at least one parlay may be calculated. The platform may be configured to determine whether to accept or decline the at least one parlay offering based on the parameters defined by the establishment. The at least one parlay may then be accepted or declined in accordance to the determination.

Abstract: A data item is searched for in first and/or second data sets of a data store. If it is found in the first data set and if it was updated in the first data set after the second data set became an overlay of the first data set, first data stored in association with the data item in the first data set is returned. If it is found in the first and second data sets and if the second data set became an overlay of the first data set after the data item was updated in the first data set, second data stored in association with the data item in the second data set is returned. The second data set is identified based on overlay metadata, indicative of the second data set being an overlay of the first data set.
