  • Publication number: 20250086398
    Abstract: Methods, computer systems, computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for efficiently generating and using intent taxonomies. In embodiments, training data, including data requests for information, is obtained. Thereafter, a model prompt to be input into a large language model is generated. The model prompt includes an instruction to generate an intent taxonomy, an indication of the training data to use for generating the intent taxonomy, and a taxonomy attribute desired to be used as criteria to generate a quality intent taxonomy. An intent taxonomy that includes user intent classes is obtained as output from the large language model. The intent taxonomy is analyzed to determine whether the intent taxonomy is valid. When the intent taxonomy is determined as valid, the intent taxonomy is provided for use in identifying user intent, and when the intent taxonomy is determined as invalid, the intent taxonomy is refined.

  • Publication number: 20250025656
    Abstract: Aspects of the present technology comprise a positioning and stabilising structure to hold a seal-forming structure in a therapeutically effective position on a head of a patient. The seal-forming structure may be constructed and arranged to form a seal with a region of the patient's face surrounding an entrance to the patient's airways for sealed delivery of a flow of air at a therapeutic pressure of at least 4 cmH2O with respect to ambient air pressure throughout the patient's respiratory cycle in use. The positioning and stabilising structure may comprise at least one gas delivery tube to deliver the flow of air to the entrance of a patient's airways via the seal-forming structure. The positioning and stabilising structure may comprise an adjustment mechanism for adjustment of a length of the at least one gas delivery tube to enable the positioning and stabilising structure to fit different size heads.

  • Publication number: 20250018270
    Abstract: In particular embodiments, a treadmill may comprise one or more lifting mechanisms configured to lift and lower a treadmill belt (e.g., adjust an angle of the treadmill belt relative to a support surface) by adjusting a height of the front and rear of the treadmill about a pivot point. In particular embodiments, the pivot point may be positioned somewhat centered along a length of the belt. In particular embodiments, a seesaw arrangement may provide a central pivot point, providing a moment arm to the motor while decreasing a moment arm caused by the load (e.g., a runner). In this way, an apparent load on a motor providing incline and decline to the running surface may be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20240404521
    Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, context-based device arbitration techniques to select a voice-enabled device from multiple voice-enabled devices to provide a response to a command included in a speech utterance of a user. In some examples, the context-driven arbitration techniques may include determining a ranked list of voice-enabled devices that are ranked based on audio signal metric values for audio signals generated by each voice-enabled device, and iteratively moving through the list to determine, based on device states of the voice-enabled devices, whether one of the voice-enabled devices can perform an action responsive to the command. If the voice-enabled devices that detected the speech utterance are unable to perform the action responsive to the command, all other voice-enabled devices associated with an account may be analyzed to determine whether one of the other voice-enabled devices can perform the action responsive to the command in the speech utterance.

  • Publication number: 20240366131
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for detecting a brain disorder in a subject include a display device and an eye tracker operatively connected to a processor, wherein the display device displays visual scenes to the subject according to at least one viewing task. The eye tracker tracks at least one of the subject's eyes while the subject performs the viewing task, and outputs eye tracking data. The 5 processor extracts data for one or more selected feature, and analyzes the data for the one or more selected feature using a classifier to determine one or more condition, validates the determined condition through comparisons to meta-data and the true condition if available, and generates an output based on the determined condition for the selected feature: wherein the output indicates the likelihood of the subject having a brain disorder.

  • Patent number: 12125483
    Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for determining device groupings, or clusters, for multiple voice-enabled devices. The device clusters may be determined based on metadata data for audio signals (or audio data) generated by each of the multiple voice-enabled devices. For example, a remote system may analyze timestamp data for the audio signals received from the devices, and determine that the devices detected the same voice command of a user based on the timestamp data indicating that the audio signals were received within a threshold period of time from each other. Additionally, the remote system may analyze other metadata of the audio data, such as signal-to-noise (SNR) values, and determine that the SNR values are within a threshold value. The remote system may determine device clusters for the voice-enabled devices of a user based on these, and potentially other, types of metadata of the audio signals.

  • Publication number: 20240220333
    Abstract: A system can receive a request from a client to perform a job via a multi-cloud platform at a leader management node. The system can, based on receiving the request, send respective first inquiries to respective management nodes of a group of management nodes, wherein the respective first inquiries inquire about respective available processing resources of the respective cloud platforms to perform the job. The system can, based on receiving respective responses from the respective management nodes, determine a first proposal for reservation of computing resources for the request among the respective cloud platforms. The system can select a subgroup leader node from the group of management nodes, wherein the subgroup leader node is configured to perform a commit operation for the reservation of the computing resources in parallel with the leader management node sending respective second inquiries to the respective management nodes and determining a second proposal.
