Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processing operations configured to provide processing that automatically analyzes acoustic signals from attendees of a live presentation and automatically triggers corresponding reaction indications from results of analysis thereof. Exemplary reaction indications provide feedback for live presentations that can be presented in real-time (or near real-time) without requiring a user to manually take action to provide any feedback. As a non-limiting example, reaction indications may be presented in a form that is easy to visualize and understand such as emojis or icons. Another example of a reaction indication is a graphical user interface (GUI) notification that provides a predictive indication of user intent derived from analysis of acoustic signals.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a multifunctional material system is provided and can include a variable-permeability layer, a desiccant containing layer, and a vapor-permeable supporting layer. The variable-permeability layer can have a vapor permeability that increases with increasing relative humidity. The desiccant containing layer can be adjacent the variable-permeability layer. The vapor-permeable supporting layer can be positioned adjacent at least one of the variable-permeability layer and the desiccant containing layer. Water moves in a first direction from the variable-permeability layer to the desiccant layer when relative humidity is greater adjacent the variable-permeability layer than the desiccant layer. Water moves a second, opposing direction, from the desiccant containing layer to the variable-permeability layer when the relative humidity is greater adjacent the desiccant containing layer than the variable-permeability layer.

Abstract: A system passively cools, regulates humidity and/or rectifies diffusive transport of water vapor in an interior area within a structure. The system includes a membrane assembly covering a portion of the structure, wherein the membrane has an interior side facing the interior area and an exterior side. The membrane assembly defines a plurality of pores. When cooling, a supply of fluid is provided to the membrane assembly so that capillary action of the pores redistributes the fluid to create evaporation and, in turn, the desired heat flow. The membrane assembly can include an architectural membrane coated with a porous matrix coating to form the pores. A pump can provide the fluid to the interior side of the membrane assembly. Preferably, the architectural membrane is woven PTFE-coated fiberglass and the porous matrix coating is titanium dioxide, zeolites and/or silica gel.

Abstract: Automatic generation of intelligent content is created using a system of computers including a user device and a cloud-based component that processes the user information. The system performs a process that includes receiving an input document and parsing the input document to generate inputs for a natural language generation model using a text analysis model. The natural language generation model generates one or more candidate presentation scripts based on the inputs. A presentation script is selected from the candidate presentation scripts and displayed. A text-to-speech model may be used to generate a synthesized audio presentation of the presentation script. A final presentation may be generated that includes a visual display of the input document and the corresponding audio presentation in sync with the visual display.

Abstract: Automatic generation of intelligent content is created using a system of computers including a user device and a cloud-based component that processes the user information. The system performs a process that includes receiving a user query for creating content in a content generation application and determining an action from an intent of the user query. A prompt is generated based on the action and provided to a natural language generation model. In response to the prompt, output is received from the natural language generation model. Response content is generated based on the output in a format compatible with the content generation application. At least some of the response content is displayed to the user. The user can choose to keep, edit, or discard the response content. The user can iterate with additional queries until the content document reflects the user's desired content.

Abstract: An intelligent speech assistant receives information collected while a user is speaking. The information can comprise speech data, vision data, or both, where the speech data is from the user speaking and the vision data is of the user while speaking. The assistant evaluates the speech data against a script which can contain information that the user should speak, information that the user should not speak, or both. The assistant collects instances where the user utters phrases that match the script or instances where the user utters phrases that do not match the script, depending on whether phases should or should not be spoken. The assistant evaluates vision data to identify gestures, facial expressions, and/or emotions of the user. Instances where the gestures, facial expressions, and/or emotions are not appropriate to the context are flagged. Real-time prompts and/or a summary is presented to the user as feedback.

Abstract: A semiconductor chip device include device state fuses that may be used to configure various device states and corresponding security levels for the semiconductor chip as it transitions from wafer manufacturing to provisioned device. The device states and security levels prevent the semiconductor chip from being accessed and exploited, for example, during manufacturing testing. A secure boot flow process for a semiconductor chip over its lifecycle is also disclosed. The secure boot flow may start at the wafer manufacturing stage and continue on through the insertion of keys and firmware.
