  • Publication number: 20250252264
    Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) technology can be used in combination with composable communication goal statements to facilitate a user's ability to quickly structure story outlines in a manner usable by an NLG narrative generation system without any need for the user to directly author computer code. Narrative analytics that are linked to communication goal statements can employ a conditional outcome framework that allows the content and structure of resulting narratives to intelligently adapt as a function of the nature of the data under consideration. This AI technology permits NLG systems to determine the appropriate content for inclusion in a narrative story about a data set in a manner that will satisfy a desired communication goal.

  • Publication number: 20250116548
    Abstract: A hydroacoustic wave detection system that comprises a time delay generator and a hydroacoustic wave detector. The time delay generator is connected to an end of an underwater cable in which light signals travel in an optical fiber system in the underwater cable. The time delay generator is configured to introduce a time delay in the light signals received by the time delay generator to generate delayed light signals. The hydroacoustic wave detector is configured to control the time delay generator to generate a number of time delays. The hydroacoustic wave detector is configured to detect a presence of hydroacoustic waves for an event (e.g. underwater earthquake, underwater volcano, whale call) from an interferometric response determined using the light signals transmitted and the delayed light signals received. The hydroacoustic waves impinge on the underwater cable at a perturbation location along the underwater cable.
