  • Patent number: 12388709
    Abstract: Described are examples for providing intent based network configuration with intent expectations including prioritized goals. A system for network configuration includes a network management function configured to receive an intent including requirements, goals, and constraints for a network and generate an intent expectation including a set of prioritized goals based on the intent. An infrastructure service management (ISM) system is configured to: receive the intent expectation from the network management function; select at least one of the prioritized goals as an active target; configure computing resources to satisfy at least the active target; and report the active target and a configuration status to the network management function. The ISM may monitor a status of the computing resources and select a higher priority goal that can be satisfied or select a lower priority goal in the case of resource or performance degradation.

  • Patent number: 12386663
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for a resource allocation system. The resource allocation system may obtain a corresponding quantity of resources (e.g., memory, processor, storage, etc.) needed to be allocated for each resource class (e.g., for a given performance class) for a particular time period (e.g., for one month). Furthermore, the resource allocation system may track allocation of each class of resources and may predict that some classes of resources will be oversubscribed. Based on the prediction, the resource allocation system may, using a machine learning model, identify supplemental classes for each resource class predicted to be oversubscribed and generate a warning when a resource of a supplemental class is predicted to be used.

  • Publication number: 20250225325
    Abstract: An embodiment generates, by analyzing prompts, a prompt template. Each prompt includes a text description of a content to be generated by a model. An embodiment classifies, using a first trained classification model, a variant portion of a prompt into a category in a set of categories. An embodiment selects, from a repository of prompt templates including the prompt template, a selected prompt template having a similarity above a threshold similarity to a first prompt. An embodiment classifies, using the selected prompt template, a variant portion of the first prompt into a first category in the set of categories. An embodiment adjusts, responsive to determining that the first category is designated as a harmful category, the variant portion of the first prompt. An embodiment causes, using the adjusted first prompt, the model to produce a first content.

  • Patent number: 12353207
    Abstract: In a mobile equipment with an articulated front portion having a worktool, a fisheye camera with a wide field of view, containing the front portion, is often mounted in a fixed direction on a rear portion of the mobile equipment. Thus, when the front portion moves (e.g., rotates) relative to the rear portion, a view around the front portion may be compromised due to inherent cropping in fisheye-distortion correction. Digital panning of panoramic video is disclosed that rotates a projection surface, in accordance with movement of the front portion, and generates a projected video on the projection surface, utilizing information that may have otherwise been cropped, to expand the visible area around the worktool. The digital panning in the projected video may mimic an operator turning their head to look down the longitudinal axis of the front portion while using the worktool.

  • Publication number: 20250213046
    Abstract: An apparatus for supporting a user includes a faceplate, an arm, a bridge, and a base. The bridge is rotatably attached to the faceplate to allow the faceplate to be pivotably adjusted. The bridge includes a hub with first and second hub bodies. Locking pins on the hub bodies slidingly engage pivot adjustment holes in first and second pivot adjustment rings. First and second buttons can be depressed to slide the hub bodies inwardly to separate the locking pins from the pivot adjustment holes to allow the hub to rotate, thereby allowing the faceplate to pivot. When the buttons are released, the hub bodies slide outwardly to insert the locking pins into the same or different pivot adjustment holes to prevent the hub from rotating.
