Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure include generating, by a design generation assistant, a design image representing a design subject, the design subject having one or more regulations applicable thereto, querying, by a regulation assistant, an answer extractor to provide a query result based on a query, the answer extractor including at least one deep learning model that processes the query to provide the query result, the query being descriptive of at least a portion of the design subject, the query result being representative of at least one regulation applicable to the design subject, and displaying, within a graphical user interface (GUI), the query result.

Abstract: A call center system for reducing communication latency includes an input/output (I/O) interface for receiving one or more queries from a customer terminal; a processor in communication with the I/O interface; and non-transitory computer readable media in communication with the processor that stores instruction code. The instruction code is executed by the processor and causes the processor to route the one or more queries to a plurality of artificial intelligent (AI) logic modules and receive, from one or more of the AI logic modules, information that facilitates providing, by a call center agent, responses to the one or more queries. The processor also routes actual responses to the one or more queries made by the call center agent to the AI logic modules; and receives from at least one AI logic module one or more scores associated with one or more metrics that rate different aspects if the actual responses.

Abstract: The global proliferation of high speed communication networks has created unprecedented opportunities for geographically distributed resource interaction. However, while the opportunities exist and continue to grow, the realization of those opportunities has fallen behind. A resource virtualization system solves the enormous technical challenges of finding and evaluating resources to assign to complex projects.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure include receiving a content image depicting a first set of objects and a style image depicting a second set of objects and a collective style, processing, by the design generation assistant, the content image using one or more ML models to determine a first sub-set of objects, to which a style is to be transferred from the style image, the first sub-set of objects including fewer objects than the first set of objects, processing, by the design generation assistant, the style image using the ML models to determine a second sub-set of objects, from which the style is to be transferred, and generating, by the design generation assistant, an output image with stylized objects, each stylized object including an object in the first sub-set of objects having the style of the one or more objects in the second sub-set of objects.

Abstract: A method and computer architecture for securely sharing information with an arbitrary set of users in end-to-end fashion. A secure data sharing system includes clients and servers. Client programs running on specific client computers encrypt plaintext data and cryptographically bind the decryption of the encryption key to policy information that contains rules about a permitted decryption operation access. Other clients decrypt the encrypted data shared by the original client by proving to the server their identity and in return receiving cryptographic material.

Abstract: The global proliferation of high speed communication networks has created unprecedented opportunities for geographically distributed resource interaction. However, while the opportunities exist and continue to grow, the realization of those opportunities has fallen behind. A dynamic process execution architecture solves the enormous technical challenges of providing effective and efficient process execution environments for geographically distributed resources to execute a complex project.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for performing virtual reality simulations using virtual reality systems. In some aspects a method includes the actions of logging user actions in a virtual reality system, wherein the user actions include one or more of (i) a path traveled by user in the virtual reality system, or (ii) user interactions with objects in the virtual reality system; aggregating logged action over a first user and a second user; and deriving modifications to the virtual reality system based at least in part on the aggregated logged actions. The modifications to the VR system can include modifying at least one of (i) appearance of objects shown in the VR system, (ii) floor plan of the VR system, and (iii) location of objects shown in the VR system.

Abstract: A device may include one or more processors. The device may receive first data to be processed. The device may receive information identifying a plurality of tasks to be performed to process the first data. The device may determine that one or more first tasks, of the plurality of tasks, are to be performed by an automation device, and that one or more second tasks, of the plurality of tasks, are to be performed by workers. The device may provide, to the automation device and to the workers, the first data. The device may receive, from the automation device and the workers, second data. The second data may be generated based on the automation device performing the one or more first tasks and based on the workers performing the one or more second tasks.

Abstract: Provisioning remote access points for use in a telecommunication network. A remote access point contains identity information established during manufacturing; this identity information may be in the nature of a digital certificate. The identity information is stored in the remote access point, and may be stored in a Trusted Platform Module if present. When the remote access node is powered up in unprovisioned state, outside the manufacturing environment, it attempts to establish an internet connection via a first wired interface, and queries a user for information representing the TCP/IP address of its controller via a second wired interface. Once an internet connection is present, and a TCP/IP address has been provided, the remote access point attempts to connect to the controller at that address. Once a connection is established, controller and access point exchange and verify each other's identities.

Abstract: The global proliferation of high speed communication networks has created unprecedented opportunities for geographically distributed resource identification, evaluation, selection, and allocation. However, while the opportunities exist and continue to grow, the realization of those opportunities has fallen behind. A dynamic resource assessment system helps to solve the enormous technical challenges of finding the resources, evaluating the resources, and determining how to allocate the resources to achieve the highest likelihood of successfully completing the task.

The device may determine, based on the test plan information and the test plan rule, whether the condition is satisfied. The device may identify, based on whether the condition is satisfied, the crowd-sourcing issue as being associated with the test plan.

The device may provide information associated with the crowd-sourcing issue or information associated with the recommendation.

Abstract: Solid mixed catalysts and methods for use in conversion of triglycerides and free fatty acids to biodiesel are described. A batch or continuous process may be used with the catalysts for transesterification of triglycerides with an alkyl alcohol to produce corresponding mono carboxylic acid esters and glycerol in high yields and purity. Similarly, alkyl and aryl carboxylic acids and free fatty acids are also converted to corresponding alkyl esters. The described catalysts are thermostable, long lasting, and highly active.
