  • Patent number: 11276176
    Abstract: Embodiments for implementing intelligent boundary delineation of a region of interest of an organism in two spatial dimensions in a computing environment by a processor. Time series data of a contrast agent in one or more regions of interest captured from multispectral image streams may be collected. One or more regions of interest having one or more perfusion patterns may be identified from the time series data. Boundaries of the one or more regions of interest may be delineated into at least two spatial dimensions, wherein the boundaries of the one or more regions of interest include one or more selected labels.

  • Publication number: 20220067690
    Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing transaction detail errors in peer-to-peer transactions are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system may receive, from a first device, a peer-to-peer transaction request that includes a user identifier. Based on the user identifier, the system may cause a recipient account details request to display in a user interface of a peer-to-peer transaction application installed on a second device associated with the recipient account. The recipient may complete the recipient account detail request and send a response including the recipient account details to the system. The system may send to the first device a confirmation of the recipient account details received from the second device and a request for an authorization to complete the peer-to-peer transaction request. The system may receive authorization and transfer (or cause to be transferred) funds from the sender account to the recipient account.

  • Patent number: 11257342
    Abstract: Embodiments relate generally to methods and systems for monitoring personal protection equipment (PPE) compliance. A method may comprise receiving, by a user identification (ID) module, information from sensor modules attached to PPE devices worn by the user, determining if the sensor modules indicate that the PPE devices are active or inactive, communicating the information from the user ID to a supervisor console, and displaying this information by a supervisor console. The user ID may be associated with a specific user, and the sensor modules may be associated with specific PPE devices. When it is determined that a required PPE device is inactive, corrective action may be taken by the supervisor.

  • Publication number: 20210397407
    Abstract: A method performed by an audio system comprising a headset. The method sends a playback signal containing user-desired audio content to drive a speaker of the headset that is being worn by a user, receives a microphone signal from a microphone that is arranged to capture sounds within an ambient environment in which the user is located, performs a speech detection algorithm upon the microphone signal to detect speech contained therein, in response to a detection of speech, determines that the user intends to engage in a conversation with a person who is located within the ambient environment, and, in response to determining that the user intends to engage in the conversation, adjusts the playback signal based on the user-desired audio content.

  • Publication number: 20210390426
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for an artificial intelligence (AI) orchestration layer to facilitate migrations between different AI platforms. A service provider may provide AI portability functions through an orchestration layer that connects different AI services and platforms. The orchestration layer may be used to monitor user interactions with a first AI platform that request AI predictive services and outputs. Using these monitored interactions, the service provider may build and train a simulated AI model that attempts to mirror or replicate the AI model trained for the user on the first AI platform. Thereafter, when the user begins use of a second AI platform that includes the same or similar functionalities to the first AI platform, the service provider may utilize the orchestration layer to assist in training an AI model on the second AI platform based on the previously trained AI model on the first AI platform.

  • Patent number: 11120455
    Abstract: There is provided systems and method for intelligent channel steering based on dynamically determined intents during channel interactions. A user may contact an organization, such as an online service or payment provider through a first communication channel in order to seek assistance or resolution with some help query or request. The organization's system may dynamically prioritize the user's intent when submitting the help request and based on the user's actions during the communications. The system may further present other communication channels that may assist the user in resolving their help request. The user may be steered to one or more of those channels. When navigating between channels a data object may be generated in the first channel that tracks the user's intent, actions, and steps taken to resolution, which may be transferred between channels and translated to a code or scripting language handled by the other channel.

  • Publication number: 20210248249
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for limiting device functionality based on data detection and processing. A user computing device may include sensitive or confidential data and/or processes that utilize such data that a malicious party may wish to abuse, such as an electronic transaction processing application that uses financial data of a user. The device may therefore be compromised by the malicious party if the device becomes accessible to that party. The device may utilize one or more processes to detect device data determine data proximate to the device and/or contextual data in order to determine whether limitations on application processes are required based on the potential nearby risk. If the nearby risk indicates the device application processes may be in danger, the device may impose limitations on the processes and/or wipe data. The device may also alert other devices or nearby users.

  • Publication number: 20210224031
    Abstract: In an exemplary technique for providing audio information, an input is received, and audio information responsive to the received input is provided using a speaker. While providing the audio information responsive to received input information, an external sound is detected. If it is determined that the external sound is a communication of a first type, then the provision of the audio information is stopped. If it is determined that the external sound is a communication of a second type, then the provision of the audio information continues.
