Abstract: A method includes receiving a new image of an item based on a time-stamped user interaction with the item, applying object detection to the new image to identify the item, determining a respective similarity of the image to each old image of the item in a library of old images, and adding the new image to the library only if each respective similarity is below a similarity threshold.

Abstract: A method for identifying accounts used to make noncompliant calls (e.g., robocalls or voice spam calls) includes obtaining, by a communication services platform, one or more metrics for voice calls associated with a first identifier of a first communication endpoint. The one or more metrics include an average call duration for the first identifier or a predetermined signaling protocol code. The method includes determining, based on the metrics, a risk score associated with the first identifier. The method includes performing, based on the risk score, a corrective action with respect to an account of the communication services platform. The account can be associated with the first communication endpoint.

Abstract: A wheel assembly comprising a wheel that is rotatable about a shaft. The wheel is supported by a plurality of connecting members to rotate about a plurality of motors that are arranged on the shaft. The plurality of motors are operable to control the connecting members so as to adjustably shift a central axis through the wheel relative to a central axis through the shaft. The wheel assembly may thus be used to dynamically adjust a position of the wheel axis relative to the central axis of the motors.

Abstract: A cryogenic, kinetically active formulation in a pressurized package; the package; and a method of making the formulation and the package.

Abstract: A strake may extend along a portion of an approaching side of a tail boom of a helicopter. A number of vortex generators (VGs) may extend along a portion of a retreating side of the tail boom. For tail booms with circular cross sections, the strake and the VGs are positioned between approximately 5 and 15 degrees below a horizontal plane of the tail boom when viewed end on, on respective sides of the tail boom. For tail booms with non-circular cross sections, the strake and the VGs is positioned between approximately 5 and 15 degrees above a location where a change in curvature is greatest (e.g., where flow separation would otherwise occur) on a bottom half of the tail boom when viewed end on, on respective sides of the tail boom. A fairing may be located on the retreating side on the upper half of the tail boom, to create an asymmetric profile.
