Abstract: An ear-worn device may include two or more microphones configured to generate time-domain audio signals, each of the two or more microphones configured to generate one of the time-domain audio signals; processing circuitry comprising analog processing circuitry, digital processing circuitry, beamforming circuitry, and short-time Fourier transformation (STFT) circuitry, the processing circuitry configured to generate, from the time-domain audio signals, one or more frequency-domain non-beamformed audio signals and one or more frequency-domain beamformed signals; and enhancement circuitry comprising neural network circuitry configured to receive multiple frequency-domain input audio signals originating from the one or more frequency-domain non-beamformed audio signals and the one or more frequency-domain beamformed signals, and implement a single neural network trained to generate, based on the multiple frequency-domain input audio signals, a noise-reduced and spatially-focused output audio signal or an output

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for performing money movement transactions with a policy orchestrator are disclosed. In some embodiments, the method includes: for each transaction of a plurality of transactions in a commerce platform, where said each transaction specifies a money movement to be made by a payment processor of a commerce platform, receiving a request for a license to make the money movement, evaluating whether the money movement associated with said each transaction is a legal money movement, and issuing the license for said each transaction in response to determining the money movement associated with the transaction is a legal money movement. The method also includes subsequently receiving said each transaction when its associated money movement is to be committed, checking whether a valid license exists for said each transaction, and sending said each transaction to the book keeping system of the commerce platform if said each transaction has a valid license.

Abstract: A rod device that can be erected and retracted into a small amount of space, in which the device is formed of component parts that are flexible and can be rolled up when detached from one another, yet form a rigid assembly when connected to one another.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved process for the production of [(±)-endo]-4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxy-N-(1-azabicyclo[3.3.1 ]non-4-yl)benzamide hydrochloride, compositions thereof, and intermediates thereto.

Abstract: Fabrication of AlN substrates suitable for epitaxial deposition of high-quality nitride-based compounds thereon having at least one single-crystal and substantially planarized useful area exceeding about 1 cm2 with a peak-to-valley surface topography in the useful area being less than about 50 nm is accomplished by, for example, employing an active solution that reacts non-selectively with the substrate material.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel crystal form of renzapride hydrochloride hydrate. The invention further provides methods of preparing the same and uses thereof.
