  • Patent number: 12118306
    Abstract: A processing system may obtain first content including human language via a computing network. The processing system may next identify an assertion in the first content and identify one or more content sources containing second content relating to the assertion. The processing system may then determine whether the second content relating to the assertion corroborates or contradicts the assertion, and may present the first content with an indication of whether the second content corroborates or contradicts the assertion.

  • Publication number: 20240284571
    Abstract: A processing system including at least one processor may detect at least one dark zone in a vicinity of a user, determine at least one lighting feature for an illumination of the at least one dark zone in accordance with a user profile of the user, identify at least one light source to provide the illumination of the at least one dark area in accordance with the at least one lighting feature that is determined, and transmit an instruction to the at least one light source to provide the illumination of the at least one dark zone in accordance with the at least one lighting feature that is determined.

  • Publication number: 20040148212
    Abstract: A method for evaluation of optimality of a master production schedule begins by obtaining a forecasted operation schedule, the master production schedule, and an operation completion time. A master production schedule variance is determined from the master production schedule and the operation completion time. Then, a forecasted operation schedule variance is determined from the forecasted operation schedule and the operation completion time. An optimality index is an indicator of the optimality of the master production schedule, which is determined as a function of the operation schedule variance to the forecasted schedule variance. A penalty for deviation of the operation completion time deviation from the master production schedule may be incorporated into the determination. A third embodiment of the method evaluates the concentration/dispersion of the master production schedule variance and provides a better optimality index for a more concentrated distribution of the planned operation index.
