  • Publication number: 20230215417
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a system that analyzes a corpus of text (e.g., a financial article, an audio book, etc.) so that the context surrounding the text is fully understood. For instance, the context may be an environment described by the text, or an environment in which the text occurs. Based on the analysis, the system can determine sentiment, part of speech, entities, and/or human characters at the token level of the text, and automatically generate Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) tags based on this information. The SSML tags can be used by applications, services, and/or features that implement text-to-speech (TTS) conversion to improve the audio experience for end-users. Consequently, via the techniques described herein, more realistic and human-like speech synthesis can be efficiently implemented at larger scale (e.g., for audio books, for all the articles published to a news site, etc.).

  • Patent number: 11684728
    Abstract: The present invention provides a particulate delivery device with an automatic activation mechanism that pierces or cuts a composition capsule when a cap is removed. The cap cannot be replaced once the device is activated for use. The device allows for gas flow through the device from a gas inlet to a gas outlet through a composition receptacle and dispersion chamber to deliver particulate to the airway of a subject.

  • Publication number: 20230172766
    Abstract: An absorbent article is disclosed that has various leak-proof features. The absorbent article, for instance, includes containment flaps that hold body exudates within the garment. The containment flaps are attached to the absorbent article by a plurality of bond lines at each end of the containment flaps. In order to restrict fluids from flowing between the bond lines, the containment flaps are further bonded at each end by a transverse bond pattern. In one embodiment, the transverse bond pattern can be formed from ultrasonic point bonds. The transverse bond patterns not only restrict leaks but also is aesthetically pleasing.

  • Patent number: 11636005
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention disclosed herein provide techniques for performing distributed anti-entropy repair procedures across a plurality of nodes in a distributed database network. A node included in a plurality of nodes within the distributed database network determines, before all other nodes included in the plurality of nodes, that a first anti-entropy repair procedure has ended. The node determines that a second anti-entropy repair procedure is ready to begin. The node generates a schedule for executing one or more operations associated with the second anti-entropy repair procedure. The node writes the schedule to a shared repair schedule data structure to initiate the second anti-entropy repair procedure across multiple nodes included in the plurality of nodes. Each of the nodes included in the plurality of nodes then performs a node repair based on the schedule.

  • Patent number: 11049817
    Abstract: A shielded semiconductor device has a first die attached to a die pad of a lead frame and a second die attached to a surface of the first die. The first die is electrically connected to inner lead ends of leads that surround the die pad, and the second die is electrically connected to the first die and to an inner end of a shielding lead. A mold compound forms a body around the first and second dies and the electrical connections. Outer lead ends of the leads project from the sides of the body. The outer end of the shielding lead projects from a central location of one side of the body and is bent up the side surface from which it projects and over the top of the body and provides EMI shielding.

  • Patent number: 10790220
    Abstract: A press-fit semiconductor device includes a lead frame having a die pad, leads with inner and outer lead ends, and a press-fit lead. The press-fit lead has a circular section between an outer lead end and an inner lead end, and the circular section has a central hole that is sized and shaped to receive a press-fit connection pin. A die is attached to the die pad and electrically connected to the inner lead ends of the leads and the inner lead end of the press-fit lead. The die, electrical connections and inner lead ends are covered with an encapsulant that forms a housing. The outer lead ends of the leads extend beyond the housing. The housing has a hole extending therethrough that is aligned with the center hole of the press-fit lead, so that a press-fit connection pin can be pushed through the hole to connect the device to a circuit board.
