Abstract: Techniques described herein are directed to intelligently identifying items for resale based on digital records of past purchases. A computing system of a payment processing service can analyze digital record(s) of a user that are representative of previous purchase(s) of the user. Based at least partly on analyzing the digital record(s), an item previously purchased by the user can be identified as a candidate for resale to another user. The computing system can monitor marketplace(s), and can determine, based at least partly on monitoring the marketplace(s), item information for the item. The computing system can create, based at least partly on the item information, a listing for an ecommerce channel that enables the user to sell the item. The listing can include an actuation mechanism that enables the other user to purchase the item, a transaction for which can be processed by the payment processing service.

Abstract: Provisioning multiple artificial reality devices can be accomplished through network communications between a device distributor, an administration system, a provisioning device, and the artificial reality devices. The device distributor can provide, to the administration system, a list of artificial reality devices corresponding to a particular organization. A provisioning device can sign into an account on the administration system and receive the list. The provisioning device can then scan for wireless connectivity with the listed artificial reality devices and can make a wireless connection with any artificial reality devices that respond and that are on the list. The provisioning device can then send these devices credentials for a local WiFi network. The artificial reality devices can automatically, upon receipt of the credentials, connect to the administration system to obtain the software update and/or the configuration data.

Abstract: A system for determining the gender and/or fertility status of avian eggs including a sampling apparatus and an electromagnetic radiation transmitter and detector. In certain embodiments, the transmitter operates in the terahertz range. The sampling apparatus can be coupled to an avian egg. The sampling apparatus includes a vacuum source, a gas collection device, and a membrane that can be positioned in the passageway coupling the vacuum source to the gas collection device. The membrane is capable of capturing volatile organic compounds. The sampling apparatus applies a vacuum from the vacuum source to the gas proximate to the avian egg and directs the gas captured from the vicinity of the egg toward the membrane. Subsequently, the membrane is positioned within the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the transmitter, generating a spectrum which can be analyzed to determine whether the egg is fertile or infertile, and if fertile, whether the egg is male or female.

Abstract: Intelligent merchant onboarding is described. A service provider can determine first directive(s) that were presented to one or more first potential merchants that completed an onboarding process with the service provider and second directive(s) that were presented to one or more second potential merchants that did not complete the onboarding process. The service provider can train a data model based at least partly on the first directive(s) or the second directive(s), Based at least partly on receiving an indication that a potential merchant initiates the onboarding process, the service provider can determine information associated with the potential merchant. Based at least partly on the data model and the information, the service provider can intelligently determine an order that one or more directives are to be presented to the potential merchant such that a first directive of the first directive(s) is presented prior to a second directive of the second directive(s).

Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and causal explanation computing apparatus that assists with generating and providing causal explanation of artificial intelligence models includes obtaining a dataset as an input for an artificial intelligence model, wherein the obtained dataset is filtered to a disentangled low-dimensional representation. Next, a plurality of first factors from the disentangled low-dimensional representation of the obtained data that affect an output of the artificial intelligence model is identified. Further, a generative mapping from the disentangled low-dimensional representation between the identified plurality of first factors and the output of the artificial intelligence model, using causal reasoning is determined. An explanation data is generated using the determined generative mapping, wherein the generated explanation data provides a description of an operation leading to the output of the artificial intelligence model using the identified plurality of first factors.

Abstract: A novel class of imaging systems that combines diffractive optics with 1D line sensing is disclosed. When light passes through a diffraction grating or prism, it disperses as a function of wavelength. This property is exploited to recover 2D and 3D positions from line images. A detailed image formation model and a learning-based algorithm for 2D position estimation are disclosed. The disclosure includes several extensions of the imaging system to improve the accuracy of the 2D position estimates and to expand the effective field-of-view. The invention is useful for fast passive imaging of sparse light sources, such as streetlamps, headlights at night and LED-based motion capture, and structured light 3D scanning with line illumination and line sensing.
