A collaborative system for receiving data and continuously analyzing the data to determine emerging patterns associated with particular user devices is provided. The system is also designed to generate a historical query of user device touch points or interaction points with entity systems across multiple data vectors, and generate system alerts as patterns or potential issues are identified. Common characteristics of data may be used to detect patterns that are broadened in scope and used in a generative neural network approach.

Abstract: Plant eradication and stressing of plants using illumination signaling where a short-time dual component, low energy, unnatural set of irradiances is applied, with no mutagenic or high radiative energy transfers in any wavelength for eradication by substantial high temperature thermally-induced leaf and plant component failure or incineration. An Indigo Region Illumination Distribution of wavelength 300 nm to 550 nm is directed to plant foliage and/or a plant root crown, while infrared radiation that is substantially Medium Wavelength Infrared radiation of 2-20 microns wavelength, 2.4-8.0 microns preferred, is directed to a plant root crown and/or soil immediately adjacent the root crown. The Indigo Region Illumination Distribution can pass through the MWIR emitter to form a compact illuminator that uses specific unnatural irradiances that provide unexpected plant control. The MWIR emitter can comprise borosilicate glass at 400° F. to 1000° F.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a secure edge device for contactless resource distribution and resource crediting from an automobile. In this way, the edge device may be affixed to or embedded within the side or the mirror of an automobile and be able to communicate with a third party device using near field communication. Upon authentication of a user, the edge device may communicate with the third party to transmit and present data about the resource distribution to the automobile display. The system allows for the user to select the resource distribution via the automobile display and provide a completion of resource distributions.
