  • Patent number: 12293659
    Abstract: In an approach to improve the management of operating vehicles through smart contracts, embodiments generate a priority score based on received sensor feeds from a vehicle, co-located vehicles, and a smart contract rule. Further, embodiments assign the priority score to the vehicle and the co-located vehicles and the co-located vehicles and identify that the assigned priority score of the vehicle is higher than the co-located vehicles. Additionally, embodiments manage an operation of the co-located vehicles through a computing device within the co-located vehicles based on the smart contract rule and the priority score and create a priority lane for the vehicle by repositioning the co-located vehicles.

  • Publication number: 20250137790
    Abstract: A V2X computing system to manage air quality by reducing carbon emissions by changing a vehicle mode of operation from fuel to battery. The system identifies the position of the vehicle and changes the mode of the vehicle to a target battery-based vehicle. The system calculates how much aggregated emission can be allowed within a defined time range around a geo-fencing area to identify appropriate distribution of battery-operated vehicle and fossil fuel-based vehicle to ensure the required air-quality. The system leverages historical data around environmental parameters like wind direction, speed, etc. for a period to calculate the emission requirements vs. predicted emission. The system uses this data to dynamically switch vehicle from using fuel power to battery power based on the capability available within the vehicle for environmental sustainability. The system further spaces vehicles appropriately to ensure the air quality is maintained on the road in a geo-fenced area.

    Abstract: A digital model is generated of a debris location where the digital model includes an augmented reality overlay of the debris location. Digital data from sensors at a debris field is received at a computer, and the digital data depicts debris in the debris field. Materials in the debris field are detected and identified based on the detected materials in the debris field. Layers of materials in the debris field are identified. A digital model is generated of the materials in the debris field including in the layers. Using the computer and an augmented reality (AR) device, an augmented reality overlay is generated based on the digital model of the materials in the debris fields. The augmented reality overlay is superimposed over the digital model of the materials in the debris field to indicate the materials in the debris field and the materials in the layers of the debris field.

  • Publication number: 20250117945
    Abstract: Cropping volumetric media is provided. Received volumetric video data is represented by a Bloch sphere. A user selected sub-volume is received to which the volumetric video data is to be cropped. CNNs having different strides are applied to sub-spheres defined within the Bloch sphere. The CNNs generate a correlation score for each sub-sphere relative to a user specified parameter. Best rotation matrices for the sub-spheres are determined to achieve a user specified angle of view, and the sub-sphere correlation scores are optimized according to the best rotation matrices. Cylindrical weights are applied to the sub-spheres according to the optimized correlation scores, and a best solution is selected for the sub-volume according to the correlation scores. The rotation matrices are reflected orthogonally onto the sub-volume, and the sub-volume is cropped from the volumetric video according to the sub-sphere with the highest correlation score to create the cropped image.

  • Publication number: 20250111847
    Abstract: Techniques for truncating long running language model conversation threads are provided. In one aspect, a language model thread truncation system includes: a language model; and a thread truncation module configured to obtain prompts and responses from a thread of user interactions with the language model during a conversation, cluster the prompts and responses based on their topical representation to create a cluster around a topic, and after a timing threshold has been reached, truncate the thread by removing the cluster from the thread if the current topic of the conversation differs from the topic of the cluster and if a reference value of the cluster is below a minimum value, otherwise retain the cluster in the thread. The reference value of the cluster can be determined based on individual reference scores for the prompts and responses in the cluster. A method for language model thread truncation is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20250111551
    Abstract: In an approach for providing a user with a set of information on a feature of a comparable product and enabling the user to assess the feature by overlaying the user's product with a digital twin of the comparable product, a processor identifies a first product in a surrounding of the user by comparing an image of the first product to one or more images stored in a product corpus. A processor searches, based on the first product, the product corpus for one or more products within a family of the first product. A processor selects a second product from the product corpus based in part on a set of product comparison preferences. A processor overlays the first product with a digital twin of the second product. A processor simulates a feature associated with the second product that is different from a feature associated with the first product.
