  • Publication number: 20240388868
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for decorrelating a set of simulated audio signals in a virtual environment is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining a first set of decorrelation filters; evaluating the first set of decorrelation filters to determine a similarity metric representing the similarity between the first set of decorrelation filters; if the similarity metric is above a predetermined threshold, regenerating the set of decorrelation filters so as to reduce the similarity metric; and applying the regenerated set of decorrelation filters to the simulated audio signals.

  • Publication number: 20240386350
    Abstract: Systems and methods of improving AI governance are disclosed. One or more sub-contexts associated with a plurality of users are generated from one or more data sources. The one or more sub-contexts represent one or more changes in data that are relevant to assessing one or more risks associated with the plurality of users. One or more sub-contexts are provided as training data to a plurality of models. Each of the models is associated with a confidence score. A probabilistic assessment of the one or more risks associated with the plurality of users is generated based on an application of the plurality of models to additional data pertaining to the plurality of users received in real time. The probabilistic assessment is presented in a dashboard user interface, the dashboard user interface having user interface elements configured to provide insight into how the probabilistic assessment was generated.

  • Publication number: 20240328692
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for a method for controlling the temperature of a surface. In some embodiments, the method includes applying a variable input to a heat pump (e.g., a Peltier) in thermal communication with the surface. The variable input may vary about a voltage and may include a powered period and an unpowered period. In some embodiments, the method includes measuring a temperature of an element in thermal communication with the surface, determining, based on the temperature of the element, whether a temperature of the surface is within a safe temperature range for a user in thermal communication with the surface, in response to determining the surface is not within the safe temperature range, adjusting the voltage of the variable input to the heat pump, and in response to determining the surface is within the safe temperature range, continuing operation of the variable input at the voltage.

  • Patent number: 12105816
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to dynamically controlling access to linked content in electronic communications. A computing platform may receive, from a user computing device, a request for a uniform resource locator associated with an email message. Subsequently, the computing platform may identify that the uniform resource locator associated with the email message corresponds to a potentially-malicious site. In response to identifying that the uniform resource locator associated with the email message corresponds to the potentially-malicious site, the computing platform may determine a risk profile associated with the request received from the user computing device. Based on the risk profile associated with the request, the computing platform may execute an isolation method to provide limited access to the uniform resource locator associated with the email message.

  • Publication number: 20240308160
    Abstract: A mould tool is disclosed, for use in repairing the eroded leading edge of a wind turbine blade. The mould tool comprises a flexible sheet and a framework which is flexible in one direction, for conforming to the curved edge of the blade, but rigid in the other direction. The mould tool may include tapered side walls. Preferably, a method or repair involves use of a mould tool with tapered side walls, and use of a similar mould tool which lacks the tapered side walls. To repair a section of the edge of a turbine blade, first stripes of resin are injected, spaced apart along the length of the section, using the mould with side walls. The gaps between the stripes are then filled using the mould without side walls.

  • Publication number: 20240293184
    Abstract: Methods and systems for intraoperatively determining alignment parameters of a spine during a spinal surgical procedure are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a method of intraoperatively determining an alignment parameter of a spine during a surgical procedure includes receiving initial image data of the spine including multiple vertebrae and identifying a geometric feature associated with each vertebra in the initial image data. The geometric features each have a pose in the initial image data and characterize a three-dimensional (3D) shape of the associated vertebra. The method further comprises receiving intraoperative image data of the spine and registering the initial image data to the intraoperative image data. The method can then update the pose of each geometric feature based on the registration and the intraoperative image data, and determine the alignment parameter based on the updated poses of the geometric features associated with two or more of the vertebrae.
