  • Publication number: 20210004432
    Abstract: A method and system for providing replacement text segments for a given text segment may include receiving a request to provide the replacement text segment for the text segment in the document, examining a content characteristic of the document, and examining at least one of user-specific information, organization-specific information, or non-linguistic features of the document, before identifying at least one replacement text segment for the text segment, via a machine translation system, based on the content characteristic of the document and at least one of the user-specific information, the organization-specific information, or the non-linguistic features of the document. The method and system may include providing the identified replacement text segment for display to a user, receiving an input indicating a user's selection of the identified replacement text segment, and upon receiving the input, replacing the text segment in the document with the identified replacement text segment.

  • Publication number: 20200411055
    Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing recorded data from one recording device, or a subset of recording devices to identify redactions that should be made to the recorded data. The identified redactions may be in accordance with a redaction policy. The identified redactions may be applied to recorded data recorded by other devices that recorded data the same incident. The redactions may be made to recorded data that was not analyzed prior to performing the redactions, so the redactions identified in one recorded data are performed in other recorded data that was not used to identify the types of redactions that should be made. Applying redactions to data that was not analyzed to determine what types of redactions should be made reduces the amount of time required to analyze recorded data for redaction.

  • Publication number: 20200355739
    Abstract: A method is provided for testing discrete output signals of a device-under-test (DUT). The method includes receiving an electrical quantity at each conductive path of a plurality of conductive paths that are each coupled to respective discrete output signals of the DUT in one-to-one correspondence. The method further includes controlling application of the electrical quantity to each of the conductive path independent of application of the electrical quantity along the other conductive paths, so that a the electrical quantity is applied simultaneously to all of the conductive paths, the electrical quantity applied to each conductive path being toggled at a unique frequency having a unique period.

  • Patent number: 10801863
    Abstract: A system for determining a phase angle of a sensor waveform relative to an excitation waveform includes a controller that provides an excitation signal having an excitation frequency and a sample signal having four times the excitation frequency. An exciter provides a sinusoidal excitation waveform at the excitation frequency to a primary winding, thereby inducing a sensor waveform in a secondary winding. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) measures a first and second voltage of the sensor waveform separated in time by the period of the sample frequency, and a wrap-around ADC measures a first and second voltage of the sinusoidal excitation waveform. The first voltage measurements are made at the same time, and the second voltage measurements are made at the same time. The system calculates the phase angle based on the first voltage measurements and the second voltage measurements.

  • Patent number: 10762691
    Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to displaying an image on a display device where a motion during a latency between a first time associated with activating a first portion of the display device and a second time associated with activating a second portion of the display device is predicted. At least a second portion of an image, to be displayed at the second time, is distorted based at least in part on a function of the motion and the latency to compensate for the latency. A first portion of the image is displayed at the first time by activating the first portion of the display device. The second portion of the image, as distorted, is displayed at the second time by activating the second portion of the display device.

  • Publication number: 20200225062
    Abstract: A system for determining an amplitude of a sinusoidal output waveform from a sensor includes a controller configured to provide a sample signal having a sample frequency that is four times a frequency of a sinusoidal excitation waveform provided to the sensor. The sensor has inductively-coupled primary and secondary windings that produce the sinusoidal output waveform from the secondary winding when the excitation waveform is provided to the primary winding. An analog-to-digital converter measures a first and second voltage of the sensor waveform separated in time by the period of the sample frequency, and the system calculates the amplitude based on the measurements of the first and second voltages.
