  • Publication number: 20240095470
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is programmed to support efficient and rapid generation of machine translation suggestions on client devices. Network latency is substantially reduced or eliminated by separating certain aspects of the translation workload across multiple classes of tasks, including final neural network output, between a client device and server device. The client device and server device may be connected such that a decoder portion of a machine translation system may be downloaded onto the client device, along with an initial translation suggestion and encoder outputs associated with a document, which document is in a source language to be translated into a target language. The initial translation suggestion may be replaced by an updated machine translation suggestion as a user inputs text in the target language called a prefix. This updated machine translation is generated on the client-side decoder using the previously-downloaded encoder outputs as input and the prefix as constraint.

  • Patent number: 11625546
    Abstract: An apparatus has a network interface circuit to receive a source sentence from a network connected client device. A processor is connected to the network interface circuit. A memory is connected to the processor. The memory stores parameters of a multilingual neural review system and instructions executed by the processor to operate the multilingual neural review system trained on a corpus of source sentences, draft target sentences and corrected target sentences. The multilingual neural review system produces a corrected target sentence from a draft target sentence representing a proposed translation of the source sentence. The draft target sentence and the corrected target sentence are supplied to the network connected client device. Approval for the corrected target sentence is received from the network connected client device. Parameters of the multilingual neural review system are updated based upon the approval for the corrected target sentence.

  • Publication number: 20180068578
    Abstract: An example system for presenting educational activities includes a computer processor and computer memory including instructions that cause the computer processor to receive a plurality of educational activities. The instructions also cause the processor to determine a learning level for a target user. The instructions further cause the processor to filter the plurality of educational activities for the target user based on the detected learning level for the target user. The instructions also further cause the processor to rank the filtered plurality of educational activities for the target user based on a social factor. The instructions also cause the processor to present the ranked educational activities to the target user in an extended social media feed.

  • Patent number: 9483460
    Abstract: A document analysis system analyzes a corpus of documents and automatically generates a dictionary of specialized phrases not already in conventional dictionaries. The dictionary generation process involves a series of operations on the phrases to identify the phrases most suitable for inclusion in a dictionary, such as phrase scoring and phrase clustering. The dictionary generation process also comprises the identification of one or more corresponding definitions for the various phrases identified for inclusion in the specialized dictionary.

  • Patent number: 5678979
    Abstract: A tilt linkage mechanism for controlling the pitch of an implement used with load elevating vehicles which includes an actuation cylinder which is mounted intermediate to the length of the implement lift arms and which is utilized to control the rotation of at least one pivot shaft connected to the vehicle lift arms so as to be in parallel relationship between a first pivot axis where the lift arms are connected to the vehicle and a second pivot axis where the lift arms are pivotally connected relative to the implement. At least one parallel linkage assembly is connected to the at least one pivot shaft and to pivot points spaced on either side of the second pivot axis and stabilizer elements are provided for allowing rotation of the actuation cylinder during use for adjusting the pitch of the implement.

  • Patent number: 5192179
    Abstract: Tilt linkage and lift arm systems by way of which implements including buckets, backhoes, grapples and forks and the like are mounted with respect to conventional load lifting vehicles including tractors, loaders, forklifts, bulldozers and the like wherein the tilt linkage members form at least two parallelograms having a common link through the lift arm(s) whereby the systems continuously and automatically level the implement as it is raised or lowered unless the tilt linkage is activated to change the pitch of the implement relative to the vehicle. In some embodiments more than one set of two or more parallel tilt linkages may be connected in end to end relationship between the vehicle and the implement.

  • Patent number: 4005685
    Abstract: Fuel injection apparatus for injecting gasoline or other combustible fuel into the cylinders of an internal combustion engine. The apparatus includes a fuel injector body having a diaphragm through which a needle valve extends and a constant fluid pressure is maintained on one side of the diaphragm to urge the needle valve toward closed position. A higher fluid pressure is intermittently applied to the other side of the diaphragm so that the needle valve is opened to spray fuel under pressure into the internal combustion engine, and when the higher pressure is relieved the introduction of fuel is interrupted.
