  • Patent number: 12354384
    Abstract: A method of re-identifying a rough gemstone comprises providing a 3D model of a first rough gemstone; generating a series of virtual 2D silhouette images of the 3D model; processing each 2D image of the series of virtual 2D silhouette images to obtain a dataset associated with the first rough gemstone; and comparing the dataset of the first rough gemstone with an existing dataset of a rough gemstone. Where the dataset of the first rough gemstone and the existing dataset match each other, the method comprises re-identifying the first rough gemstone as the same rough gemstone from which the existing dataset was obtained.

  • Patent number: 12342418
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for SoR list management and PLMN selection based on an SoR list. A UE may receive an SoR container which may include a list of OPLMNs. The UE may store a prior list of OPLMNs stored on a USIM of the UE on a memory of the UE. The UE replace the prior list of OPLMNs stored on the USIM with the list of OPLMNs included in the SoR container. The UE may consider the prior list of OPLMNs as a lower priority list as compared to the list of OPLMNs stored on the USIM. Additionally, in response to determining to move from a current PLMN, the UE may scan for a new PLMN based on the list of OPLMNs stored on the USIM.

  • Patent number: 11710070
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a screening question-based online screening mechanism is provided to assess job applicants automatically. More specifically, job-specific questions are automatically generated and asked to applicants to assess the applicants using the answers they provide. Answers to these questions are more recent than facts contained in a user profile and thus are more reliable measures of an appropriateness of an applicant's skills for a particular job.

  • Patent number: 11663536
    Abstract: Techniques for scoring data items using a machine-learned model are provided. In one technique, multiple skills are identifying based on a job posting. Multiple attribute values of the job posting are identified. For each identified skill, multiple probabilities are identified, each probability corresponding to a different attribute value of the identified attribute values. The probabilities are input into a machine-learned model to generate multiple scores. Multiple skills of a candidate user are identified. An affinity score between the job posting and the candidate user is generated based the scores and the skills of the candidate user.

  • Patent number: 11610161
    Abstract: Apparatuses, computer readable medium, and methods are disclosed for verifying skills of members of an online connection network. The apparatus, computer readable medium, and methods may include a method including responding to a first member of the online connection network indicating a skill possessed by the first member by selecting a skill verification user interface (UI) to present to a second member of the online connection network where the first member and the second member are connected via the online connection network. The method may further include presenting the skill verification UI to the second member, where the skill verification UI presents an indication of the first member, an indication of the skill, and a query regarding a competence level of the skill possessed by the first member. The method may further include receiving a response to the query and determining a skill validation value of the skill for the first member based on the response and a machine learning model.

  • Patent number: 11604990
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a framework to infer a user's value for a particular attribute based upon a multi-task machine learning process with uncertainty weighting that incorporates signals from multiple contexts is provided. In an example embodiment, the framework aims to measure a level of a user attribute under a certain context. Rather than attempting to devise a universal, one-size-fits-all value for the attribute, the framework acknowledges that the user's value for that attribute can vary depending on context and factors in the context under which the user's attribute levels are measured. Multiple contexts are defined depending on different situations where users and entities such as companies and organizations need to evaluate user attribute levels. Signals for attribute levels are then collected for each context. Machine learning models are utilized to estimate attribute values for different contexts. Multi-task deep learning is used to level attributes from different contexts.
