  • Publication number: 20230168932
    Abstract: An example method includes receiving historical usage data associated with computing services provided by distributed servers and an inference model. The inference model is configured to receive a request and make an inference based on the request. The method further includes training a machine learning model to determine a correlation between usage of a first computing service of the and usage of the inference model. The correlation indicates that a first spike in usage of the first computing service precedes a second spike in usage of the inference model. The method further includes receiving, in real-time, current usage data associated with the first computing service. The method further includes determining, based on the current usage data and the correlation, that the current usage data is indicative of the first spike in usage of the first computing service that precedes the second spike in usage of the inference model.

  • Patent number: 11663466
    Abstract: A method for generating a dual-class dataset is disclosed. A single-class dataset and a context dataset are obtained. The context dataset can be labeled. A model can be trained using the combination of the single-class dataset and the labeled context dataset. The model can be run on the context dataset. The data points that are classified the same as the data points included in the single-class dataset, can be removed from the labeled context dataset and added to the single-class dataset. These steps can be repeated until no data points are classified by the model.

  • Patent number: 11641422
    Abstract: Aspects described herein may allow for deploying third-party callback to be performed on a mobile device. For example, the mobile device may configure a third-party callback to be performed after a triggering event is detected by a remote device. The triggering event may relate to a remote device associated with the mobile device. A determination may be made as to whether the mobile device is within a pre-determined proximity of the remote device. If the two devices are in proximity and if the mobile device receives a message that indicates the triggering event has been detected, the mobile device may perform the third-party callback. In this way, a user's need to request services conveniently and accurately is facilitated.

  • Publication number: 20230132099
    Abstract: Methods and systems disclosed herein describe using machine learning to lock and unlock a device. Machine learning may be trained to recognize one or more features. Once the device has been trained to recognize one or more features, a user may define an unlock condition for the device using the one or more trained features. After defining the unlock condition, the device may be locked by verifying the one or more features that the user defined as the unlock condition using machine learning. When verification is successful, the device may be unlocked and the user allowed to access the device.

  • Publication number: 20230075894
    Abstract: Methods and systems for the dynamically re-clustering of nodes in clusters to provide optimal performance and/or the most efficient use of resources through the use of machine learning models. Specifically, the methods and systems may determine a cluster that optimally performs and/or has the most efficient use of resources based on a first machine learning model. The methods and system may then retrieve available substitute nodes from other domains and/or networks that may lie outside the cluster, but may nonetheless be available to, or accessed by the cluster. The methods and systems may then generate an additional plurality of clusters using one or more of the original nodes of the originally selected clusters and/or one or more of the available substitute nodes.

  • Patent number: 11599717
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems and methods are described herein for separately collecting and storing form contents. Different information may be collected from a user on a form. Based on determining that portions of the form request private information, an extended reality (XR) environment may be provided to the user. The user may provide private information via an input method in the XR environment. The user may provide non-private information using a different input method outside of the XR environment. The private information may be processed and stored in a different database as compared to the non-private information. The database storing private information may have a higher security standard than the database storing non-private information.

  • Patent number: 11593459
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for improving user experience of multimedia streaming over computer networks. More specifically, techniques presented herein reduce (or eliminate) latency in playback start time for streaming digital media content resulting from digital rights management (DRM) authorizations. A streaming media client (e.g., a browser, set-top box, mobile telephone or tablet “app”) may request a “fast-expiring” license for titles the streaming media client predicts a user is likely to begin streaming. A fast-expiring license is a DRM license (and associated decryption key) which is valid for only a very limited time after being used for playback. During the validity period of such a license, the client device requests a “normal” or “regular” license to continue accessing the title after the fast-expiring license expires.
