Abstract: The present disclosure provides flavor altering and/or sweetness enhancing compositions, methods, and food and beverage products using a soluble oligomeric component selected from soluble dietary fiber and polydextrose to alter flavor and/or enhance sweetness.

Abstract: The present invention exists as a mobile application and includes systems and methods for allowing users and authority figures to communicate. Tenants living within a community are grouped by a site ID. Authorities such as security guards or law enforcement are assigned an organization ID corresponding with the site ID for the community they serve. Tenants may make requests through the application to authorities with a matching ID comprising anonymous reports, live chat, live calls, or dispatch to a certain location. Tenants may also bypass the corresponding authorities and contact a 911 dispatcher directly. Certain requests may open a direct line of communication between an authority and a tenant. Other requests, including anonymous reports and dispatches, may be sent to all authority figures with an organization ID matching the requesting tenant's site ID. Authorities may send broadcasts through the application to tenants with a matching ID. All communications are encrypted.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of training an artificial neural network is provided. The artificial neural network comprises a feedforward autoencoder and a classification layer, the feedforward autoencoder comprising an input layer of neurons, an output layer of neurons, an embedding layer of neurons between the input and output layers, one or more non-linear intermediate layers of neurons between the input and embedding layer, one or more further non-linear intermediate layers of neurons between the embedding and output layer and respective network weights for each layer, wherein the number of neurons in the embedding layer is less than the number of neurons in the input layer. Data units are defined within a data space to have a data value for each dimension of the data space and a classification label associated with each data unit indicating one of a plurality of groups to which each data sample belongs.

Abstract: A system and method to facilitate trespass incident reporting. The system includes a camera, a processor, a communication device, a remote server, a storage device, and a user personal computing (PC) device. The processor aids in identifying a trespasser using the facial images acquired by the camera through a visual comparison with known trespassers. The processor sends the acquired facial images to the remote server through the communication device. Then the acquired facial images are matched with images of trespassers in a trespasser database stored on the storage device. When no match is found, the remote server prompts the user's PC device to enter information for the first-time trespasser, and to present an audio no-trespass warning message to the trespasser while concurrently recording the presentation using an audio/video recorder. With the no-trespass recording, a trespasser incident report is created and distributed to all users.

Abstract: A system and method offers a user of a property to facilitate trespass incident reporting. The system includes a camera, a processor, a communication device, a remote server, a storage device, and a user personal computing (PC) device. The processor identifies a trespasser using the facial images acquired by the camera and an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm. The processor sends the acquired facial images to the remote server through the communication device. Then the acquired facial images are matched with all facial images of trespassers in a trespasser database stored on the storage device. When no match is found, the remote server prompts the user's PC device to enter information for the first-time trespasser, and to present an audio no-trespass warning message to the trespasser while concurrently recording the presentation using an audio/video recorder. With the no-trespass recording, a trespasser incident report is created and distributed to all users.

Abstract: A system for analyzing social media content and for determining the influence types of different social media members is disclosed. The system categorizes users according to their influence on the social media conversation and displays information related to this categorization in schematic form. The popularity of a particular topic can be analyzed to determine when the topic resonates and becomes more popular within the social network. In some embodiments, the categorization of the users and schematic display of information can be conducted in real-time.

Abstract: A suture bar for securing an implantable medical device into a body. The suture bar including a body member having a length disposed between a first and a second end, the body member being formed of a generally elongate tube that is piercable by a suture needle. The suture bar also including a first and second connector fixedly attached on the first and second end of the body member, the first and second connector operable to connect the implantable medical device to a pocket in a body.
