  • Publication number: 20240104469
    Abstract: A system provides integrated evaluations within executed workflow interactions. The system receives a query from a user device during an interaction between the user device and an agent device. The system determines a query intent, and based on a determination that a workflow is available in a database, executes the workflow. The system integrates an evaluation with in the workflow by transmitting a request for an input to the user device. The system displays rating options associated with the input in an interaction window. The system receives a rating selection based on one of the rating options and executes a response action corresponding to the rating selection.

  • Patent number: 11941073
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for selectively identifying candidate keywords for a target domain, generating keyword clusters based on the candidate keywords, and implementing the candidate keywords within published online content. In particular, systems disclosed herein generate or otherwise obtain access to a collection of keywords and value metrics descriptive of a profile of the keywords with respect to a target domain. The systems can selectively identify candidate keywords having unique value to a domain and generate keyword clusters including the keywords and associated terms. The systems described herein can further implement the keyword clusters within a structure of published content items that are linked or otherwise associated with the target domain.

  • Patent number: 11939162
    Abstract: A system-directed robotic cart picking system is described. In an example implementation, the system may generate a picking itinerary including pick-to-cart routing based on locations of items in an order fulfillment center and received order data identifying the items, and may transport the carts in the order fulfillment center according to the pick-to-cart routing. The system may determine a zone of the order fulfillment center to which to assign a picker based on the picking itinerary and may determine tasks, such as picking at least one item from the locations to the carts, for the picker located in the zone. In some instances, the system may output pick instructions to a picker client device directing the picker to perform the tasks and may transport the carts to a defined point in the order fulfillment center in response to completion of the tasks.

  • Publication number: 20240089111
    Abstract: In one general embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes performing a firmware update on a hardware component of a computer system. A hash value associated with the update of the firmware is collected, and added to Platform Control Registers (PCRs) of multiple Trusted Platform Module (TPMs) of the computer system. The hash value is logged in a log file. At a predetermined time, PCR values are received from the TPMs. The PCR values are compared to determine whether all PCR values match. In response to one of the PCR values not matching, a warning is issued.

  • Publication number: 20240087689
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to techniques for abstraction of unstructured clinical trial health data. Particularly, aspects are directed to obtaining, by a data transformation system, an unstructured document that includes various types of content for a given event. The data transformation system converts the unstructured document from an original format into a standardized format. The data transformation system processes the unstructured document in the standardized format to identify template-mapped content data and processes the template-mapped content data to identify high-interest content data. The data transformation system generates a dictionary data structure comprising key-value pairs for each of the template-mapped content data and the high-interest content data. The data transformation system generates a structured document based on the dictionary data structure for each of the template-mapped content data and the high-interest content data.

  • Publication number: 20240008467
    Abstract: A strike indicator and strike indicator tooling assembly for use in fishing. The strike indicator comprises two hemispheres that may form a substantially spherical outer dimension around fishing line. The two hemispheres may fit frictionally together to prevent movement or slipping of the fishing line between the two hemispheres once assembled. The hemispheres may be disassembled to replace the fishing line, and reuse the strike indicator. The tooling assembly comprises a top insert, and a bottom insert. The top insert and bottom insert compress around a foam sheet to form the spherical outer form figures of the two hemispheres.

  • Patent number: 11792866
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include systems, methods and apparatuses of a first device, that obtain contact point information of a second device associated with the first device, as a peer device in a private network, where the contact point information of the second device includes one or more peer uplink identifiers and each respective peer uplink identifier corresponds to a respective peer device uplink of the second device. The systems, methods and apparatuses establish a first private network data tunnel from a first uplink of the first device to the second device, using the contact point information of the second device, and a first uplink identifier associated with the first uplink, and establish a second private network data tunnel from a second uplink of the first device to the second device, using the contact point information of the second device, and a second uplink identifier associated with the second uplink.

  • Patent number: 10951489
    Abstract: Compliance with a Service Level Agreement (SLA) between an ecommerce provider and its customer may be determined using real user monitoring by collecting data for each HTTP/HTTPS request and response sent to the ecommerce provider. The presence of a content delivery network (CDN), also monitoring every HTTP/HTTPS request sent from a user, through the CDN provides an external, third-party confirmation of compliance. Real user monitoring is collected at the SaaS system by triggering an event rule, collecting data regarding the performance of the request and the response, and logging the created message. The log is processed and stored in a performance monitoring system where indexed for calculations and presentation.
