  • Patent number: 11972217
    Abstract: System and method for displaying a user interface of an evaluation system configured to evaluate predicted answers generated by a machine learning system. For example, the method includes receiving textual data and a predicted answer to a question associated with a text object. The text object includes a structured data field of the textual data. The predicted answer includes a confidence level. The confidence level is determined by a machine learning system. In response to determining the confidence level being larger than or equal to a predetermined confidence threshold, the predicted answer and a reference is stored in a storage for retrieval and display. The reference indicates a location of the text object in the textual data. In response to determining the confidence level being smaller than the predetermined confidence threshold, the question and the text object associated with the question is displayed.

  • Patent number: 11924193
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for accelerating online certificate status protocol (OCSP) response distribution to relying parties using a content delivery network (CDN). A certificate authority generates updated OCSP responses for OCSP responses cached in the CDN that are about to expire. In addition, the certificate authority pre-generates cache keys in place of CDNs generating the keys. The certificate authority sends the OCSP responses and the cache keys in one transaction, and the CDN, in turn, consumes the new OCSP responses using the cache keys.

  • Patent number: 11912304
    Abstract: An autonomous mobile device (AMD) moves in a physical space and uses a dock located at a first pose. Sometimes a user may move the dock. To determine whether the dock has moved, the AMD compares first pose data that was previously obtained while at the dock in the first pose to second pose data, such as after a restart or after leaving the dock. If a difference between the first pose and the second pose is greater than a threshold, the dock has moved. The pose data may be determined using a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithm to process images from cameras on the AMD. Transform data that relates coordinates of the second pose to coordinates of the first pose may be determined. If the dock is used as an origin for a map of the physical space, the transform data may be used to update the map.

  • Patent number: 11569278
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for pricing a callable instrument. A plurality of corresponding pairs of Brownian motion paths and index value paths are determined corresponding to a set of dates. A deep neural network (DNN) of a backward DNN solver is trained until a convergence requirement is satisfied by for each pair of corresponding Brownian motion path and index value path, using the backward DNN solver to determine by iterating in reverse time order from a final discounted option payoff to an initial value. A statistical measure of spread of a set of initial values is determined and parameters of the DNN are modified based on the statistical measures of spread. Pricing information is determined by the backward DNN solver and provided such that a representation thereof is provided via an interactive user interface of a user computing device.
