  • Publication number: 20240134850
    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to techniques for converting a natural language utterance to a logical form query and deriving a natural language interpretation of the logical form query. The techniques include accessing a Meaning Resource Language (MRL) query and converting the MRL query into a MRL structure including logical form statements. The converting includes extracting operations and associated attributes from the MRL query and generating the logical form statements from the operations and associated attributes. The techniques further include translating each of the logical form statements into a natural language expression based on a grammar data structure that includes a set of rules for translating logical form statements into corresponding natural language expressions, combining the natural language expressions into a single natural language expression, and providing the single natural language expression as an interpretation of the natural language utterance.

  • Publication number: 20240076362
    Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to compositions that include antibodies, e.g., monoclonal antibodies, humanized antibodies and antibody fragments, that specifically bind a MS4A4A polypeptide, e.g., a mammalian MS4A4A or human MS4A4A, and use of such compositions in preventing, reducing risk, or treating an individual in need thereof.

  • Patent number: 11192251
    Abstract: A method for controlling the operation of a robot within a system. The system includes the robot and sensors to analyze the concentric environment of the system. The sensors include a contact sensor, a proximity sensor and a vision and location sensor. For each of the axes of the robot, a maximum allowable force value is obtained. If the force on one of the axes of the robot is greater than the maximum value, the robot is stopped in its position. A concentric monitoring space or a security space is obtained as a function of the speed of the robot. The environment of the robot is monitored by the sensors. If the intrusion of an object is detected in the safe space of the robot, the maneuvering speed of the robot is gradually decreased to a safe speed. The process is repeated for the next axis of the robot.

  • Patent number: 10596702
    Abstract: A cable robot comprises a platform supporting an effector and cables. Each cable is connected on one end to an attachment point on the platform and extends from this attachment point to an anchoring point attached to a supporting structure. The anchoring points being contained in more than one plane. The cables include a set of driving cables whose ends are connected to a winch. The cables include a set of reconfigurable cables, whose anchoring points are movable relative to the supporting structure. The supporting structure is beared by a set of independent mobile bases having anchorings to fix the mobile bases to the ground.
