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: Multiple projected rate of penetration (ROP) values can be determined for purposes of adjusting well tools and well characteristics. For example, surface data can be determined based on a surface sensor signal. Downhole data can be determined based on a downhole sensor signal. A first value indicating a first projected ROP of a drill bit can be determined by providing the surface data as input to a first machine-learning model. A second value indicating a second projected ROP of the drill bit can be determined by providing the downhole data as input to a second machine-learning model. A third value indicating a third projected ROP of the drill bit can be determined by providing the first value and the second value input to a third machine-learning model. An operating characteristic of a well tool can be adjusted based on the third value.

A remote file storage system includes a permissions file generator operative to generate a permissions file, which is transmitted to a client file storage system for enforcement at the client file storage system.

Abstract: A source of bias identification (SoBI) tool is provided that identifies sources of bias in a dataset. A bias detection operation is performed on results of a computer model, based on an input dataset, to generate groupings of values for a protected attribute corresponding to a detected bias in the operation of the computer model. The SoBI tool generates a plurality of sub-groups for each grouping of values. Each sub-group comprises an individual value, or a sub-range, for the protected attribute. The SoBI tool analyzes each of the sub-groups in the plurality of sub-groups, based on at least one source of bias identification criterion, to identify one or more sources of bias in the input dataset. The SoBI tool outputs a bias notification to an authorized computing device specifying the one or more sources of bias in the input dataset.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and techniques for changing cryptographic keys in high-frequency transaction environments to mitigate service disruptions or loss of transactions associated with key maintenance. In various embodiments, a server device can employ a working key encrypted with a first master key to decrypt messages being communicated from a client device, whereby each message is encrypted with a first cryptogram that was generated based on the working key encrypted with the first master key. While the working key encrypted with the first master key is being employed, the server device can generate a notification including a second cryptogram generated based on the working key encrypted with a second master key for transmission to the client device. The transmitted notification can cause the client device to encrypt the messages being communicated with the second cryptogram.

Abstract: Not every person can or should join an electronic conference (herein, “conference”) where they may contribute content to the conference. While a first set of participants are communicating, a question may arise to be addressed to an additional participant not participating in the conference. Rather than executing the overhead of joining the conference, a separate communication channel is established, such as via an instant messaging application of the additional participant. The additional participant is presented with a message, such as a question, which may indicate the sender is the conference itself. The additional participant replies via their IM application which is delivered to each of the conference participants and optionally included in a recording of the conference.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide a network tool that discovers device configurations for selected enterprise sites and automatically organizes the data to assist users, so they can build intents for network function policies in enterprise networks. An intent builder performs device discovery of network function (NF) instances in a customer network; retrieves configuration elements from the NF instances; normalizes the configuration elements; and generates a graphical user interface with rule paths based on the configuration elements. The network device receives, via the graphical user interface, user input to map source Internet protocol (IP) addresses in the rule paths to a user label and to map destination IP address in the rule paths to an application label. Based on the user input, the network device presents, via the graphical user interface, consolidated intents and generates vendor-agnostic policy rules from the consolidated intents.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining whether a substrate includes an unacceptably high amount of oxide on its surface are described. The substrate is typically a substrate that is to be electroplated. The determination may be made directly in an electroplating apparatus, during an initial portion of an electroplating process. The determination may involve immersing the substrate in electrolyte with a particular applied voltage or applied current provided during or soon after immersion, and recording a current response or voltage response over this same timeframe. The applied current or applied voltage may be zero or non-zero. By comparing the current response or voltage response to a threshold current, threshold voltage, or threshold time, it can be determined whether the substrate included an unacceptably high amount of oxide on its surface. The threshold current, threshold voltage, and/or threshold time may be selected based on a calibration procedure.

Abstract: A building management system, such as a small or medium business, having one or more control devices. Assigning codes to devices, and reading and listing them may aid in configuring the devices. Templates may be used for dynamic configuration of devices and equipment. Representing terminal assignments and wiring diagrams of control devices may be intuitive in that they resemble real hardware for ease of complete installation. The present system and approach may provide an intuitive way of securely registering devices with cloud usage, for example, involving a mobile phone with no manual entry of data so that a user can complete this process with ease. An intuitive, automatic and asynchronous device configuration downloading may be seen, such as to multiple control devices in a single shot. There may be seamless configuration data synchronization, for example, in view of replacement devices, or so the latest data is readily available.
