Abstract: The method S200 can include: at an aircraft, receiving an audio utterance from air traffic control S210, converting the audio utterance to text, determining commands from the text using a question-and-answer model S240, and optionally controlling the aircraft based on the commands S250. The method functions to automatically interpret flight commands from the air traffic control (ATC) stream.

Abstract: Mounting a device to a surface is achieved using a mount coupled to the surface and including a swing arm hinged so that the swing arm is movable between an open position permitting insertion or removal of the device, and a capture position in which the swing arm holds the device. Ideally, hinges include a retainer such as a torque insert are a part of the mount.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for generating personalized responsive assistance for a person needing assistance (PNA) is disclosed. The method begins with the system receiving a PNA's contact data and a trust group manager's (TGM) contact data. The system then sends a request to the TGM for association of TGM's device with PNA's device. The system then receives approval and proceeds with storing an indicator of the association of the devices. The TGM then sends the system a person providing assistance's (PPA) data. The system will then send an invite to the PPA, to join a trust group associated with the PNA. After the PPA accepts the invite to join the PPA group, the system will receive a request for an audio/visual connection between the PNA and the PPA. As the PNA is in need of assistance, an audio/visual connection will be permitted allowing the PPA to help the PNA.

Abstract: Machine learning, artificial intelligence, and other computer-implemented methods are used to identify various semantically important chunks in documents, automatically label them with appropriate datatypes and semantic roles, and use this enhanced information to assist authors and to support downstream processes. Chunk locations, datatypes, and semantic roles can often be automatically determined from what is here called “context”, to wit, the combination of their formatting, structure, and content; those of adjacent or nearby content; overall patterns of occurrence in a document, and similarities of all these things across documents (mainly but not exclusively among documents in the same document set).

Abstract: Systems and methods for model evaluation. A model is evaluated by performing a decomposition process for a model output, relative to a baseline input data set.

Abstract: A generative interactive video computer-implemented method and system applies trained computer-implemented neural networks to generate a sequence of images, which may comprise a video, and which contains identified objects, and then delivers the sequence of images to a user. The sequence of images may be further generated in accordance with an inference of a preference from user behavioral information. The identified objects may be provided to the system in the form of natural language and/or images. The system then generates and delivers to users natural language-based responses to user requests for information with respect to the identified objects, including attributes that are associated with the identified objects. Users may direct the system to generate video-based virtual environments that include representations of the identified objects.

Abstract: A driver can be configured to provide sensed phase currents as feedback to a controller to indicate the output currents from each phase of a switch mode power supply (SMPS). The driver can be configured to temperature compensate the sensed currents in one of two ways. If a temperature sensor is directly coupled to the driver, then the driver may be configured to temperature compensate the sensed currents from each phase based on a temperature measurement made by the temperature sensor. If a temperature sensor is not directly coupled to the driver, then the driver may be configured to temperature compensate the sensed current from each phase based on a temperature signal received from a bus coupled to the driver. The bus can communicate the temperature signal so that multiple drivers can utilize one temperature sensor.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes storing, by a tracking system server, information identifying each of multiple first computing devices and a location of each computing device. The method includes receiving a request including an identifier for a second computing device and configuration instructions executable by the second computing device. The method includes determining a most recent location associated with the second computing device. The method includes identifying a computing device from the first computing devices based at least in part on the stored location of the computing device and the most recent location associated with the second computing device. The method includes sending, to the identified computing device, a forwarding request including the identifier for the second computing device and the configuration instructions. The identified computing device is configured to send the configuration instructions to the second computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and processing modeling workflows are disclosed. In some examples, a reference distribution of scores generated by a model is determined. The reference distribution of scores is recorded in a structured database. One or more unexpected scores are detected during execution of the model. To detect the one or more unexpected scores, a production distribution of scores is compared with the reference distribution of scores recorded in the structured database. The production distribution of scores is generated by the model for a production input data set. An alert is then provided to an external system, when an alert condition is determined to be satisfied based on the comparison. The alert indicates detection of the one or more unexpected scores.

Abstract: A downhole drilling tool, forming part of a subterranean drilling system, may include at least one plate secured to an exterior of an elongate body. Electronics may be disposed between the plate and the body to be protected by the plate while still readily accessible. A dynamic element may be radially extendable from the plate to engage an inner wall of a borehole being drilled. If this radially-extendable element becomes worn or damaged from this engagement, the plate may be replaced. More expensive components of the drilling tool may be contained within the elongate body, rather than the plate, thus reducing replacement frequency. Additionally, plates including unique features may be employed at different times without altering the underlying elongate body.

Abstract: A cutting element includes a body, a non-planar cutting face formed on a first end of the body, and an edge formed around a perimeter of the cutting face. The cutting face includes a central raised portion, and the edge has an edge angle defined between the cutting face and a side surface of the body. The edge angle varies around the perimeter of the cutting face and includes an acute edge angle defined by a portion of the cutting face extending downwardly from the edge to a depth from the cutting angle. The portion of the edge defining the acute edge angle may be directly adjacent: a side surface of the cutting element; a bevel of the cutting element; or a flat region at the perimeter of the cutting element or bevel.
