  • Patent number: 11687736
    Abstract: Systems and methods may be used to provide transcription and translation services. A method may include initializing a plurality of user devices with respective language output selections in a translation group by receiving a shared identifier from the plurality of user devices and transcribing the audio stream to transcribed text. The method may include translating the transcribed text to one or more of the respective language output selections when an original language of the transcribed text differs from the one or more of the respective language output selections. The method may include sending, a user device in the translation group, the transcribed text including translated text in a language corresponding to the respective language output selection for the user device. In an example, the method may include customizing the transcription or the translation, such as to a particular topic, location, user, or the like.

  • Patent number: 11501546
    Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and systems for implementing a media management system, for video data processing and adaptation data generation, are provided. At a high level, a video data processing engine relies on different types of video data properties and additional auxiliary data resources to perform video optical character recognition operations for recognizing characters in video data. In operation, video data is accessed to identify recognized characters. A video OCR operation to perform on the video data for character recognition is determined from video character processing and video auxiliary data processing. Video auxiliary data processing includes processing an auxiliary reference object; the auxiliary reference object is an indirect reference object that is a derived input element used as a factor in determining the recognized characters. The video data is processed based on the video OCR operation and based on processing the video data, at least one recognized character is communicated.

  • Patent number: 10235436
    Abstract: The formulation of transformations on one or more input event streams to generation one or more output event streams. Accordingly, the transformations may be considered to be a query on the original input event stream(s). The event query includes event stream source representations representing an input event stream available in a particular execution context. The event query also includes a transformation module identifying the transformation set to be performed on the input event streams in the execution context. Once the query is properly formed, an execution module may then cause the transformations to be executed upon the designated input event stream(s) to generate output event streams.

  • Patent number: 10228977
    Abstract: Methods of managing distributed analytics on device groups are described. In an embodiment, a management service within a distributed analytics system provides an interface to allow a user to define a group of devices based on a property of the devices. When the property of a device in the system satisfies the criterion specified by the user, the device is added to the group and the device may subsequently be removed from the group if the device no longer satisfies the criterion. Once a group has been defined, the management service enables users to specify management operations, such as creating, starting, stopping or deleting queries or management operations relating to other entities of end devices, which are to be implemented on all the devices in the group and the management service propagates the operation to all devices in the group, irrespective of their current connectivity status.

  • Patent number: 10185615
    Abstract: An analysis module is configured to receive data associated with an event flow. The data is received from a first analysis module (e.g., in a stack of analysis modules) or from the event flow. The analysis module is configured to execute an analysis operation on the data to generate a result. The analysis module can output the result to a second analysis module (e.g., in the stack of analysis modules) or to a user interface.

  • Patent number: 9952915
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to methods, and systems for generating event processing language code in a development environment using an event processing compiler. A query in event processing language is received in a development environment. The query can be associated with sample data from input files or an input data source. An event processing compiler compiles the query, where the compiler transforms the query from event processing language code to a development environment script language code. In particular, the event processing language code transforms the code based on event processing attributes that are intricately aligned in syntax and semantic between the event processing language and the development environment script language. The query as a development environment script is executed using sample data.

  • Publication number: 20180090141
    Abstract: Conversational Super Bots are provided. A SuperBot may utilize a plurality of dialogs to enable conversation between the SuperBot and a user. The SuperBot may switch between topics, keep state information, disambiguate utterances, and learn about the user as the conversation progresses using each of the plurality of dialogs. Users/developers may expose a number of dialogs each specializing in a conversational subject as a part of the SuperBot. The embodiments provide enterprise systems that may handle multiple subjects in one conversation. SuperBot architecture allows dialogs to be added to the SuperBot and managed from the SuperBot. Dialog intelligence delivery via the SuperBot is decoupled from the authoring of the dialogs. Processes that make the SuperBot appear as intelligent and coherent to a user are decoupled from the dialog authoring. Developers may develop dialogs without considerations of language processing. The SuperBot includes components that manage and coordinate the dialogs.
