A computing system causes presentation of first and second types of contact records that are available for a user-selected geographic area, along with indications of quantities of the types of contact records. User input is received that specifies amounts of the first and second types of contact records. The computing system provides contact information for the user-specified amounts of the first and second types of contact records.

Abstract: Techniques for providing user access to cloud environments through an administrative tenancy to comply with sovereignty requirements are disclosed. The administrative tenancy is one of multiple tenancies in the cloud environment. The administrative tenancy includes tools for communicating with services running outside of the administrative tenancy. The user may only be able to access these services through the administrative tenancy. User access to the administrative tenancy requires the user to satisfy one or more sovereignty requirements. After determining that the user satisfies the sovereignty requirements for the cloud environment, the system grants the user access to the tools within the administrative tenancy to communicate with services outside the administrative tenancy.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems that generate a confidence score for the generated large language model (LLM) output. The methods and systems use the text of the input provided to the LLM and the text from the generated LLM output to produce a feature vector that encodes a readability of the text from the input and the text of the LLM output. The feature vector is used to determine a corresponding confidence score for the generated LLM output. The confidence score is used to evaluate a quality of the generated LLM output.

Abstract: A memory system disclosed herein features left and/or right memory banks, with left and/or right input/output (IO) blocks aligned with the memory banks for managing data input and output. A control section, situated between the left and right input/output blocks, oversees memory operations, receives control signals, and performs stuck-at testing. The control section includes fault detection logic designed to output a first logic value (e.g., logic low) if logic values at each of its external inputs are identical, but output a second logic value (e.g., logic high) if not. The fault detection logic is capable of detecting stuck-at faults in the external inputs by performing both stuck-at-0 and stuck-at-1 testing. If only stuck-at-0 or stuck-at-1 faults are detected, the fault detection logic can pinpoint those faults by iteratively changing input values at each of its external inputs and observing the output of the fault detection logic.

Abstract: Clients that fail to access a resource may compute backoff times for waiting before retrying to access the resource. The clients may reference a sequence of time windows where the time windows may have increasing numbers of time slots. The clients may select respective time slots in a first time window. If the clients again fail to access the resource, then the time slots selected by the clients may at least partly determine which time slots the clients select in a next (second) time window. The time slot selections in the second time window may be at least partly randomly selected. A client may randomly select a time slot in the second time window from among a proper subset of time slots in the second time window. The proper subset may be based on which time slot the client selected in the first time window.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a real-time segmentation system that utilizes graph objects and models to efficiently and accurately generate segmented real-time time series data. The real-time segmentation system achieves this by efficiently generating new current graph objects as data points are received using a graph recovery model. Additionally, the real-time segmentation system removes previously generated graph objects beyond the current graph object and the previous graph object to reduce the amount of stored data. These object graphs can include conditional independence (CI) graphs, which are probabilistic graphical models that include nodes connected by edges to exhibit partial correlations between the nodes. Furthermore, the time series segmentation system determines segmentation timestamps from the graph objects using a similarity model.
