  • Publication number: 20250232872
    Abstract: An example assistant system can use a multimodal multitask medical machine-learned model to perform image processing to answer natural language queries. A device can process speech data or other natural language inputs to obtain a query. The query can be processed alongside image data that provides context for the query. The example system can receive a query associated with a particular task domain; generate, based on the query, a query input that comprises query instruction data from a first modality and query context data from a second modality; generate a combined input comprising the query input and an exemplar input, wherein the exemplar input comprises exemplar instruction data from the first modality and an exemplar context placeholder in lieu of exemplar context data from the second modality; process the combined input with a multimodal machine-learned model to generate output data; and output a query response based on the output data.

  • Patent number: 11853723
    Abstract: Application personalization techniques and systems are described that leverage an embedded machine learning module to preserve a user's privacy while still supporting rich personalization with improved accuracy and efficiency of use of computational resources over conventional techniques and systems. The machine learning module, for instance, may be embedded as part of an application to execute within a context of the application to learn user preferences to train a model using machine learning. This model is then used within the context of execution of the application to personalize the application, such as control access to digital content, make recommendations, control which items of digital marketing content are exposed to a user via the application, and so on.

  • Publication number: 20230411724
    Abstract: A method (2800) of selectively leaching one or more manganese-containing phases from a mixed-phase battery electrode material comprises treating (2802) the mixed-phase battery electrode material with a solution of an acid, the acid acting as both a leaching agent and a reducing agent, so as to form a manganese-containing leachate whilst leaving at least one phase of the battery electrode material unleached, wherein the acid has a pKa greater than or equal to ?2. Either or both of the leachate and the remaining electrode material may then be regenerated (2806, 2808).

  • Publication number: 20230356987
    Abstract: A system for visually maintaining a predetermined minimum approach distance between load handling equipment and energized electrical equipment includes at least two elongate electrically insulating members that have lengths that correspond to the predetermined minimum approach distance that are mounted to at least a distal end of the load handling equipment so that they extend orthogonally outwardly from the distal end by substantially the predetermined minimum approach distance. One of the insulating members is rotatably mounted using a counterweight so as to be vertical, independent of the orientation of the load handling equipment. In use, when the distal end is in the vicinity of the energized electrical equipment, the insulating members provide visual indication that the predetermined minimum approach is being maintained and is not being encroached. A corresponding method is also described.

  • Patent number: 11544608
    Abstract: Systems and methods for probabilistic semantic sensing in a sensory network are disclosed. The system receives raw sensor data from a plurality of sensors and generates semantic data including sensed events. The system correlates the semantic data based on classifiers to generate aggregations of semantic data. Further, the system analyzes the aggregations of semantic data with a probabilistic engine to produce a corresponding plurality of derived events each of which includes a derived probability. The system generates a first derived event, including a first derived probability, that is generated based on a plurality of probabilities that respectively represent a confidence of an associated semantic datum to enable at least one application to perform a service based on the plurality of derived events.
