Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for verifying the unique identity of an artificial intelligence model. The systems and methods described herein determine whether the behavior of a first artificial intelligence model is like the behavior of a second artificial intelligence model. When the behavior of the two models is substantially similar, the two models are considered to have a same identity. When the behavior of the two models differs, the two models are considered to be different.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for providing provable provenance for assessment results. For example, an AI model and/or a dataset may be assessed using an assessment service to determine whether a bias exists within the AI model and/or the dataset. The results of the assessment may be provided to an auditing service to confirm the assessment results. The systems and methods described herein provide for provable provenance for the assessment results such that the auditing service can verify whether a model and validation dataset provided by a client are the same that were used during an assessment and have not been tampered with by a malicious party.

Abstract: A Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) system is configured for direct communications between remote computing devices in a peer-to-peer configuration. Voice data from the communication is marked such that the voice data from the different endpoints can be combined into a unified audio stream. An authentication may be accomplished automatically prior to text or audio communication between a customer and a service agent. In some embodiments, authentication is accomplished automatically by authentication of the remote access device or accomplished by asking the customer questions. A single authentication of the remote access device may be used to authenticate a service request transferred between service agents. The authentication of the remote device may include, for example, use of a personal identification number, a fingerprint, a photograph, and/or a hardware identifier.

Abstract: Systems and methods for protecting a data in a validation dataset. The system may identify characteristics of a dataset using, for example, a trainable model and may generate fake data based on the identified characteristics of the dataset. The fake data may be interleaved with the validation dataset and may be transmitted to a client for validating against a trained model on a client. A portion of the output from the trained model of the client that corresponds to the validation dataset is may be identified. Metrics may be generated based on the identified portion of the output.

Abstract: A system for automatic authentication of service requests includes authentication of a remote access device. This authentication may be accomplished automatically prior to text or audio communication between a customer and a service agent. In some embodiments, authentication is accomplished automatically by authentication of the remote access device or accomplished by asking the customer questions. A single authentication of the remote access device may be used to authenticate a service request transferred between service agents. The authentication of the remote device may include, for example, use of a personal identification number, a fingerprint, a photograph, and/or a hardware identifier. Some embodiments include an intelligent pipeline configured for managing queues of customer service requests and/or customer service agent control over a customer's access device. Some embodiments include logic configured to manage and enhance communication channels between devices.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure relate to a method for skew detection in a printing system. The method comprises printing a document from an original digital image, scanning the document to produce a digital representation using an in line scanner of the printing system, and detecting skew in the digital representation independently from the original digital image.

Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method may comprise obtaining first image data representing a reference image to be printed on a substrate. The method may comprise obtaining second image data representing a scanned image of a substrate on which the reference image has been printed. The method may comprise combining the first image data and the second image data to generate combined image data. The method may comprise providing the combined image data as an input to a classifier component to identify a difference between the first image data and the second image data. An apparatus and a machine-readable medium are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for processing an image is disclosed. The method may include obtaining a target image to be printed using print agent in a printable area of a substrate of a particular colour. The method may include obtaining a scanned image of a substrate on which the target image has been printed, the substrate being of the particular colour. The method may include determining, from the scanned image, the particular colour of the substrate. The method may include using the target image as a reference image against which the scanned image is to be compared. The method may include adjusting a colour in the reference image according to the determined particular colour of the substrate. An apparatus and a machine-readable medium are also disclosed.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for synchronizing playback of digital content on two or more different content players. Each content player synchronizes a local time signal to a time reference signal maintained by a time server. Actions related to content playback are synchronized with respect to each local time signal for a given content player, which thereby synchronizes playback for a group of associated content players. Each content player may be advantageously configured with different playback options, allowing each user to have a better shared viewing experience than possible with prior art solutions that provide only one set of playback options.

Abstract: A method is described in which an image is received, the image including a document and background area; a candidate location of a boundary between the document and the background area is found; and a validity of the candidate location of the boundary is checked, based on pixel values around the candidate location of a first channel of the image, and pixel values around the candidate location of at least one other channel of the image, wherein the at least one other channel is different from the first channel.

Abstract: A communication system is configured to automatically adapt an image sequence in response to movement of a camera used to capture the image sequence. The adaptation includes a reduction in the data size of the image sequence and can occur in real-time as the image sequence is captured. The adaptation further includes restoration of the data size of the image in response to a reduction in movement of the camera. This approach allows for the communication of quality images shortly after movement of the has been reduced.
