  • Publication number: 20230217238
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing updates to user devices, and in particular, SIM-based OTA updates. In some cases, SIMOTA updates need to be made while a user device has a cellular connection (e.g., 4G/LTE, 5G). As such, an instruction is transmitted to the user devices that need a SIM-based update but that currently have a non-cellular connection. The instruction is for the user devices to deregister from the non-cellular connection and to reregister using a cellular connection. An indication is received that at least a portion of those user devices now currently have a cellular connection. The SIM-based updates are then transmitted to those user devices.

  • Publication number: 20220383105
    Abstract: A problem of supervised learning is overcome by using patches to discover objects in unlabeled training images. The discovered objects are embedded in a pattern space. An AI machine replaces manual entry steps of training with a machine-centric process including clustering in a pixel space, clustering in latent space and building the pattern space based on different losses derived from pixel space clustering and latent space clustering. A distance structure in the pattern space captures the co-occurrence of patterns due to frequently appearing objects in training image data. Embodiments provide image representation based on local image patch naturally handles the position and scale invariance property that is important to effective object detection. Embodiments successfully identifies frequent objects such as human faces, human bodies, animals, or vehicles from unorganized data images based on a small quantity of training images.

  • Patent number: 11372609
    Abstract: A method provides pre-rendered information messages for display by a peripheral display unit connected to a base station over a data link. The method involves detecting that a data connection between the base station and the peripheral display unit is available, sending pre-rendered information messages from the base station to the peripheral display unit, and storing the pre-rendered information messages at the peripheral display unit for display in response to a status detected at the peripheral display unit. The base station may perform the pre-rendering of information messages in response to variation in configuration information relating to the peripheral display unit. The pre-rendered information messages may be paired with peripheral display unit statuses and the peripheral display unit may be configured so that, in the event that a particular status is detected, the corresponding pre-rendered information message is displayed without requiring data transmission from the base station.
