Abstract: Systems and methods for image processing are described. Embodiments of the present disclosure encode features of a source image to obtain a source appearance encoding that represents inherent attributes of a face in the source image; encode features of a target image to obtain a target non-appearance encoding that represents contextual attributes of the target image; combine the source appearance encoding and the target non-appearance encoding to obtain combined image features; and generate a modified target image based on the combined image features, wherein the modified target image includes the inherent attributes of the face in the source image together with the contextual attributes of the target image.

Abstract: Offered is a system that presents on a display screen a translation of a sentence together with an untranslated version of the sentence, and that can cause both of the displayed sentences to break apart into component parts in response to a simple user action, e.g., double-tapping on one of them. When the user selects (e.g., taps on) any portion of either version of the sentence, the system can identify a corresponding portion of the other version (in the other language). In some implementations, a user device can include both a microphone and a display screen, and an automatic speech recognition (ASR) engine can be used to transcribe the user's speech in one language (e.g., English) into text. The system can translate the resulting text into another language (e.g., Spanish) and display the translated text on the display screen along with the untranslated text. When a user selects a portion of a sentence, the system can also present information about the selected portion (e.g.

Abstract: A method for improving safety and property protection in schools comprising fixed and mobile safety and security devices, networked together. A software App provides real-time communication among various devices. The network integrates disparate security devices into a unified system to expand coordination and communication among public safety personnel. The system automatically triggers alarms, cell phone notifications, and warnings, as well as defensive measures, when its sensors or safety devices detect or report threats to public safety and property. Each device in the system is pre-programmed to respond independently while simultaneously sharing its findings with all other devices and security personnel in the network. Deployment of these disparate devices gives security personnel heightened awareness, real-time status of secured and unsecured building entrances, around-the-clock visualization, and faster response times in both indoor and outdoor emergencies.

Abstract: This invention is a system and method for verifying a sender of messages on a mobile network. Software on a cloud messaging service generates a public/private key pair. The private key is securely retained in a cloud wallet service and is accessible to a messaging cloud service (the trusted sender). The public key is shared with a subscriber device that receives messages from the messaging cloud service. The cloud messaging service receives an inbound message for the subscriber device from a trusted enterprise application via a secure connection. The cloud messaging service signs a special header to the message with its private key. When the message is received by the subscriber device, the public key resident on the device verifies the message header signed with the public key of the cloud messaging service thereby verifying the sender.

Abstract: A server device can obtain historical location data, concerning a vehicle, captured by a global positioning system (GPS) device of the vehicle and historical engine control unit (ECU) data concerning the vehicle captured by an ECU of the vehicle. The server device can process the historical location data and the historical ECU data to train a machine learning model to determine a relationship between the historical location data and the historical ECU data. The server device can receive location data and ECU data concerning the vehicle and update the machine learning model based on the location data and the ECU data. The server device can receive real-time location data concerning the vehicle and derive an equivalent real-time ECU speed using the machine learning model. The server device can generate a message regarding the equivalent real-time ECU speed of the vehicle and send the message to a remote device for display.

Abstract: This invention pertains to a method for provisioning and implementing two-factor authentication (2FA) for enterprise services. The system securely establishes a trusted identity for a subscriber device using an immutable hardware key and public/private key sets. The device's identity is verified by an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) cloud service. The method includes generating unique transaction nonces for each 2FA request, securing private keys within a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), and employing a cloud wallet service to store keys. The subscriber device interacts with the system, decrypting and re-encrypting transaction nonces using corresponding keys. This process enables secure transaction from enterprise applications. The system also integrates user consent into the 2FA process, displaying a prompt to approve or deny authentication. This technology enhances security in enterprise services, prioritizing user consent and secure data transfer.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for image processing. Embodiments of the present disclosure include an image processing apparatus configured to generate modified images (e.g., synthetic faces) by conditionally changing attributes or landmarks of an input image. A machine learning model of the image processing apparatus encodes the input image to obtain a joint conditional vector that represents attributes and landmarks of the input image in a vector space. The joint conditional vector is then modified, according to the techniques described herein, to form a latent vector used to generate a modified image. In some cases, the machine learning model is trained using a generative adversarial network (GAN) with a normalization technique, followed by joint training of a landmark embedding and attribute embedding (e.g., to reduce inference time).
