Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for generating content-item-specific large language model responses from content items by segmenting a content item and selecting relevant sections of the content item to provide to a large language model to generate a corresponding output. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems can generate a text representation that includes a plurality of text segments each comprising a number of tokens of the text representation. Further, the systems can extract, from the plurality of text segments, segment-specific text embeddings that correspond to respective portions of the text representation of the content item. Additionally, the systems can determine a segment-specific text embedding corresponding to a model output request.

Abstract: The present technology pertains to a link service that can create, maintain, and service links to objects on behalf of a content management system or other services. The link service can share administration of links with other services when desired or can even allow other services to issue the link and manage the object that is the subject of the link while providing other functions to support the link. Additionally, link service can interface with a file system that can support links as actors in the file system, whereby greater control and flexibility in supporting links is provided. Link service can also accommodate servicing and management of links issued by legacy services, where the legacy services have unique link logic that should still be utilized to maintain a consistent user experience.

Abstract: In an optical fiber monitoring system which detects physical disturbance or other parameters such as temperature or strain of a fiber where a monitor signal is transmitted along the optical fiber and analyzed to detect changes which are indicative of an event, a method is provided for periodically checking proper operation of the optical fiber monitoring system. A fiber disturbance actuator periodically causes a pattern of disturbances of a portion of the fiber at a predetermined location thereon where the disturbance is characteristic of the event to be monitored. The monitor signal is analyzed to detect the pattern of changes and in the event that expected changes are not detected, a warning is issued that the intrusion detection system is not properly operating.

Abstract: A hat hanger has a hook, an L-shaped arm, and a J-shaped open loop, and the arm and loop are in different planes. The arm's proximal section connects to the hook's shank and extends to a bend in the arm opposite from the hook's head, and the arm's distal section extends from the bend to the arm's distal end. The loop's neck connects to the arm's distal section its distal end and is angled out of the plane of the arm to the plane of the loop which is defined by the loop's curved crown section that extends from the neck and turns inwardly back toward the proximal end of the arm. The nose is situated at an end of the curved crown section opposite the neck and spaced from the arm. The loop's neck, nose, and curved crown section bound an interior space which receives the hat's crown portion.

Abstract: A solid-state laser amplifier includes a core material providing an active gain medium. A cladding material is on the core material that is the same material as the core material that further comprises a broadband absorber material. The cladding material suppresses transverse oscillations in solid-state, single-crystal or ceramic laser amplifiers by employing a native-material, solid-state, index-matched cladding containing an appropriate broadband absorber.

Abstract: The carrier-envelope phase (CEP) of a laser pulse has been shown to influence many physical processes such as pulse propagation through polar molecules, cross-phase modulation, ponderomotive surface-plasmon electron acceleration, photoemission from metallic surfaces, terahertz emission from the laser breakdown of air, above-threshold ionization, high harmonic generation, and attosecond pulse generation. Current technology does not allow for the CEP stabilization of chirped pulse amplification (CPA) systems operating at a repetition rate much lower than a kHz. The inventors disclose apparatus and methods that enable CEP control in CPA systems operating at arbitrarily-low repetition rates.

Abstract: Content is received within a network at a content receiver and that is communicated from a content source, where the content comprises packets to be sent to the content receiver that are marked with a first drop priority or a second drop priority. A network priority is detected at the content receiver that is based at least in part upon a ratio of packets marked with the first drop priority to packets marked with the second drop priority within the content and also a determination at the content receiver of a rate of packets dropped that are marked with the first drop priority and a rate of packets dropped that are marked with the second drop priority.
