Abstract: An apparatus for generating a plurality of audio channels for a first speaker setup is characterized by an imaginary speaker determiner, an energy distribution calculator, a processor and a renderer. The imaginary speaker determiner is configured to determine a position of an imaginary speaker not contained in the first speaker setup to obtain a second speaker setup containing the imaginary speaker. The energy distribution calculator is configured to calculate an energy distribution from the imaginary speaker to the other speakers in the second speaker setup. The processor is configured to repeat the energy distribution to obtain a downmix information for a downmix from the second speaker setup to the first speaker setup. The renderer is configured to generate the plurality of audio channels using the downmix information.

Abstract: Artificial intelligence based document analysis systems and methods are disclosed. Embodiments of document analysis systems may allow the reuse of coded datasets defined in association with a particular code by allowing these datasets to be bundled to define a dataset for another code, where that code may be associated with a target corpus of documents. A model can then be trained based on that dataset and used to provide predictive scores for the documents of the target corpora with respect to the code. Furthermore, this code can be applied not just to the target corpus of documents, but additionally can be applied against any other corpora.

Abstract: Embodiments as disclosed may generate an organizational hierarchy based on embeddings of portions of documents. Embeddings resulting from the embedding of the portions of the documents can be clustered using a hierarchical clustering mechanism to segment the portion space into a set of hierarchical clusters. Documents can be assigned to these clusters based on the presence of a portion of a document within a cluster. In this manner, the documents may themselves be clustered based on the clusters created from portions across the documents of the corpus. The clusters to which a document is assigned may also be ranked with respect to that document. Similarly, documents assigned to cluster can be ranked within the cluster to which they are assigned. Additionally, in certain embodiments, names or snippets for the clusters of the hierarchy may be derived from the portions comprising that cluster.
