  • Publication number: 20240163400
    Abstract: A transcript of a conference (e.g., a video conference, an audio conference, or a telephone call with two or more participants) is processed to extract a conference summary. The transcript includes strings that are associated with respective timestamps and respective speaker identifiers. Speaker segments—sequences of consecutive strings attributed to the same speaker—are identified in the transcript. A speaker segment is selected based on its duration in time and one or more strings are selected from with the selected speaker segment for inclusion in the conference summary. A short video conference summary or a short audio conference summary is then generated using timestamps from the transcript associated with strings (e.g., sentences) that have been selected for inclusion in the conference summary. The short video or audio summary may be presented to users to enable efficient storage and transmission of information from the conference within a unified communications system.

  • Publication number: 20240095662
    Abstract: A method of generating a consolidated asset inventory database. The method creates a consolidated asset inventory based on asset information obtained from various sources, in which asset objects are associated with various asset attributes. The consolidation includes, for a given network infrastructure asset, identifying asset data from multiple sources relating to the same asset based on common identifier values and combining the identified asset data into a consolidated data representation of the asset associated with the common identifier value(s) and including attributes from the multiple sources. After identifying an asset attribute for which a value in the consolidated asset data representation is missing or invalid, a trained prediction model is applied to other attributes of the asset to generate a predicted value for the identified attribute which is stored in the consolidated asset data representation in the database.

  • Patent number: 11415433
    Abstract: A method for calibrating a sensor with respect to a reference trajectory indicating a number of timely successive data values using an encoder/decoder neural network with an encoder function and a successive decoder function. The method includes training the encoder function and the decoder function of the encoder/decoder neural network with respect to a reference trajectory so that a reconstruction error of the reference trajectory at an input of the encoder function and a reconstructed reference trajectory at an output of the decoder function is minimized; training a calibration vector with respect to a sensor trajectory so that a reconstruction error between an output sensor trajectory and a corresponding reference trajectory is minimized, the output sensor trajectory is obtained by applying the calibration vector on the sensor trajectory and the encoder function and decoder function on the the calibrated sensor trajectory; and applying the calibration vector to calibrate the sensor.
