  • Publication number: 20240095449
    Abstract: In some implementations, a transcription system may generate a first transcript based on audio data of a conversation between a first user and a second user. The transcription system may determine, using a first machine learning model of the transcript system, that a portion of the first transcript is incorrect. The transcription system may generate, using a second machine learning model, additional data for transcribing the audio data based on determining that the portion of the first transcript is incorrect. The additional data is generated using a portion of the audio data corresponding to the portion of the first transcript. The transcription system may generate a second transcript based on the audio data and the additional data. The transcription system may provide the second transcript to one or more devices.

  • Patent number: 11934614
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for an anomaly detection framework that operates as an executable analysis tool for devices to operate in order to determine whether the device contains an unresponsive touch screen (e.g., defective or malfunctioning touch screen). The disclosed framework can analyze the capacitance capabilities of the touch screen, inclusive of the touch layers associated with the touch screen panel, and determine when a device's touch screen is unresponsive to user provided input, which can be any type of touch or gesture provided on a touch screen.

  • Publication number: 20230385556
    Abstract: A device may generate first scores for sentences of text based on a cumulative frequency of words in each sentence, may generate second scores for the sentences based on a cumulative frequency of domain entities in each sentence, and may generate third scores for the sentences based on a sentiment analysis of each sentence. The device may generate a summary of the text, may filter the sentences to extract a first set of sentences, may filter the sentences to extract a second set of sentences, and may filter the sentences to extract a third set of sentences. The device may identify and assign weights to a first group of sentences, a second group of sentences, and a third group of sentences, may generate a ranked list of sentences based on the weighted first group, second group, and third group, and may perform actions based on the final summary.

  • Publication number: 20230368502
    Abstract: In an example, based upon a first image of a face of a first person, a plurality of augmented images may be generated. Based upon the first image and the plurality of augmented images, a first set of facial feature representations may be generated. A second image comprising a representation of a face of a second person may be identified. A second facial feature representation may be generated based upon the second image. It may be determined, based upon the second facial feature representation and the first set of facial feature representations, that the second person is the first person.

  • Patent number: 11816608
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for identifying states associated with service providers based on biometric, sensor, and/or other information associated with a set of service providers. A request for service may be received, and a particular service provider may be selected based on a particular state associated with the particular service provider, as determined based on the biometric, sensor, and/or other information associated with the particular service provider. State information associated with a requestor of the service may be identified and used as a factor in selecting the particular service provider to respond to the service request.

  • Publication number: 20230334814
    Abstract: A device may receive unprocessed images to be labeled, and may utilize a first neural network model to identify objects of interest in the unprocessed images and bounding boxes for the objects of interest. The device may annotate the objects of interest to generate annotated objects of interest, and may utilize a second neural network model to group the annotated objects of interest into clusters. The device may utilize a third neural network model to determine labels for the clusters, and may request manually-generated labels for clusters for which labels are not determined. The device may receive the manually-generated labels, and may label the unprocessed images with the labels and the manually-generated labels to generate labeled images. The device may generate a training dataset based on the labeled images, and may train a computer vision model with the training dataset to generate a trained computer vision model.

  • Publication number: 20230215128
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein utilize synthetic pixel generation using a custom neural network to generate synthetic versions of objects hidden by occlusions for effective detection and tracking. A computing device stores an object detector model and a synthetic image generator model; receives a video feed; detects objects of interest in a current frame of the video feed; identifies an occluded object in the current frame; retrieves a previous frame from the video feed; generates synthetic data based on the previous frame for the occluded object; and forwards a modified version of the current frame to an object tracking system, wherein the modified version of the current frame includes the synthetic data.
