  • Publication number: 20230184003
    Abstract: Disclosed is a positioning device for a fence supplemented with a pet guardrail. The pet guardrail is fixed to a side of an existing fence in a side-attaching manner, and an upper crossbar and a lower crossbar of the pet guardrail are fixed to an outer side of the existing fence by bolts and covered and protected by front and rear cover plates, and both ends of the upper crossbar and lower crossbar are sheathed with a side sleeve for protection. In this way, the grid spacing of the existing fence can be reduced to prevent pets from escaping, and the overall appearance is aesthetic, and the overall structure avoids people or pets from being scratched by the bolts and just requires simple operations for the installation.

  • Publication number: 20230184004
    Abstract: A positioning device for fence supplemented with pet guardrail comprises: an upper embedding slot and a lower embedding slot having face-to-face openings and extending axially being respectively formed on an opposite outside of the upper crossbar and the lower crossbar of the pet guardrail, for embedding the upper and lower ends of the straight rod and fixing the straight rod via the positioning peg from the inner side of the upper crossbar and the lower crossbar to avoid the exposure of the positioning peg and omitting the installation of the front cover plate on the front side of the upper crossbar and the lower crossbar, and moreover, the side cover installed and covered on the left and right ends of the upper crossbar and the side cover facing the end of side pole of the existing fence being an circular arc surface, thereby meeting the installation inclination angle of the existing fence. The configuration of the circular arc surface enables the side cover to maintain attached with the side pole.

  • Publication number: 20230036114
    Abstract: Techniques and systems include predicting various health conditions using a photoplethysmography (PPG) signal or a video signal based on images of a patient's fingertip or other body portion captured using a mobile device. The video signal may be transformed into a pseudo PPG signal to measure blood volume changes in the patient's blood flow to derive data indicating a disease state or health-related characteristic, such as blood oxygen level, blood glucose level, heart rate variability, hemoglobin, respiration rate, or arrhythmia. Techniques involve real-time environment assessment and problematic issue detection, training an artificial intelligence (AI) model to measure signal quality so as to select high-quality signals from a range of signals, and domain adaption and transfer learning to make use of publicly available datasets.

  • Patent number: 11377120
    Abstract: Systems, methods, tangible non-transitory computer-readable media, and devices associated with vehicle control based on risk-based interactions are provided. For example, vehicle data and perception data can be accessed. The vehicle data can include the speed of an autonomous vehicle in an environment. The perception data can include location information and classification information associated with an object in the environment. A scenario exposure can be determined based on the vehicle data and perception data. Prediction data including predicted trajectories of the object can be accessed. Expected speed data can be determined based on hypothetical speeds and hypothetical distances between the vehicle and the object. A speed profile that satisfies a threshold criteria can be determining based on the scenario exposure, the prediction data, and the expected speed data, over a distance. A motion plan to control the autonomous vehicle can be generated based on the speed profile.

  • Patent number: 11245788
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are disclosed for detecting an active speaker in a two-way conference. Real time audio in one or more sub band domains are analyzed according to an echo canceller model. Based on the analyzed real time audio, one or more audio metrics are determined from output from an acoustic echo cancellation linear filter. The one or more audio metrics are weighted based on a priority, and a speaker status is determined based on the weighted one or more audio metrics being analyzed according to an active speaker detection model. For an active speaker status, one or more residual echo or noise is removed from the real time audio based on the one or more audio metrics.

  • Patent number: 11206236
    Abstract: Chat room content classification, in an online communication environment, where higher applicable chat rooms are prioritized for a user, is provided. First, an chat room service receives chat room content for at least a first chat room and a second chat room. A chat room analyzer can then analyze a characteristic(s) associated with the first chat room and/or the second chat room. Based on the characteristic, the chat room determines that the first chat room is more applicable to the user. Then, a user interface may be presented to the user where the first chat room is prioritized (or ranked) over the second chat room.
