Abstract: Policy-informed e-signature processing. An electronic signature system (ESS) is interfaced to a content management system (CMS) that stores instances of shared files and coordinates policy-informed interactions with the shared files. Upon detection of an occurrence of an e-signature request event, electronic signature processing is carried out in a manner that observes one or more governance policies that control handling of shared files. When responding to an e-signature request event, the CMS observes the governance policies by issuing an electronic query to a database of parameters, wherein the parameters define metes and bounds of the governance policies. Upon determination that at least some of the governance policies at least potentially apply to the e-signature processing, the ESS and/or the CMS modifies metadata pertaining to one or more workflow objects that are associated with a computer-implemented workflow. The workflow may terminate or be terminated based upon the one or more governance policies.

Abstract: Techniques for ensuring content output to a user conforms to a quality of the user's speech, even when a speechlet or skill ignores the speech's quality, are described. When a system receives speech, the system determines an indicator of the speech's quality (e.g., whispered, shouted, fast, slow, etc.) and persists the indicator in memory. When the system receives output content from a speechlet or skill, the system checks whether the output content is in conformity with the speech quality indicator. If the content conforms to the speech quality indicator, the system may cause the content to be output to the user without further manipulation. But, if the content does not conform to the speech quality indicator, the system may manipulate the content to render it in conformity with the speech quality indicator and output the manipulated content to the user.

Abstract: A method, a system, and a computer program product for accessing data. A data stream including a plurality of data elements is received. A mapping of the plurality of data elements is generated. Each data element is represented by a data node in the mapping. A linked list of the data nodes with starting and ending elements is generated. Each node is linked to at least another node and stores a count of a data element and the corresponding data element. The count represents a number of times the data element is present in the data stream. Each node is positioned in the generated linked list using the count of each data element. Data elements with a highest count are positioned proximate to the starting element and data elements with a lowest count are positioned proximate to the ending element. Data elements are accessed using the generated mapping.

Abstract: A non-invasive, transcutaneous, real-time viral detection device that is configured for self-administration, e.g., at a user's home. In one embodiment, and after positioning the device relative to the human body part (e.g., the user's finger), light sources in the device are activated (excited), and resulting data captured. In particular, a set of Raman spectra are collected from a configured set of emitters and detectors in the device and delivered to a nearby receiver, preferably wirelessly. The receiver filters and de-convolves the Raman spectra producing a data set representative of the constituent elements in the user's tissue of interest. The data set is applied against a statistical classifier, e.g., a neural network that has been trained to recognize and distinguish the absence or presence of viral components, e.g., C-19, or its associated blood-borne acute phase reactants.

Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for validating a relevance or an accuracy associated with an item being attached to a message or inserted inline with the text of the message or other type of document. An addition of the item (e.g., attachment, hyperlink, embedded image, etc.) to the message being generated by a sender can be detected. Message keywords associated with the message content and item keywords associated with the item content can be identified following an analysis of the message content and item content. The message keywords and item keywords can be compared to determine a likelihood of a mismatch between the item and the message. Upon determining a potential mismatch and prior to the message being sent to a recipient, a notification identifying the likelihood of the mismatch is presented to the sender.

Abstract: The system and methods described herein may be utilized to perform operations in a faster and less complex manner than provided by conventional systems. An encrypted record may be stored at a user device. The encrypted record may include entries related to operations that were previously requested by the user device. The encrypted record may have been encrypted using a dynamic value and a key that is associated with an entity associated with the user. A recipient computer of a request by the user device may be configured to utilize the dynamic value provided in the request and the key associated with the entity to derive the encryption key(s) last used to encrypt the record. The recipient computer may decrypt and modify the decrypted record to perform the requested operation while the user device is precluded from doing so.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for computer-generating responses and sending responses to communications when the recipient of the communication is unavailable are disclosed. An individual may send a message (either audio or text) to a recipient. The recipient may be unavailable to contemporaneously respond to the message (e.g., the recipient may be performing an action that makes is difficult or impractical for the recipient to contemporaneously respond to the audio message). When the recipient is unavailable, a response to the message is generated and sent without receiving an instruction from the recipient to do so. The response may be sent to the message originating individual, and content of the response may thereafter be sent to the recipient to receive feedback regarding the correctness of the response. Alternatively, the response content may first be sent to the recipient to receive the feedback, and thereafter the response may be sent to the message originating individual.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media directed to adaptable drawing guides. In implementations, a guide mode is identified. Generally, a guide mode indicates a manner in which to use a drawing guide to confine strokes corresponding with input paths. Upon detecting an input path, a stroke is drawn in accordance with the guide mode. For example, when an edge mode is employed, the drawn stroke is confined to align with at least one edge of the drawing guide, when an inside mode is employed, the drawn stroke is confined inside of the set of edges of the drawing guide, and when the outside mode is employed, the drawn stroke is confined outside of the set of edges of the drawing guide.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a response prediction system that intelligently optimizes the quality of responses to a survey by predicting response quality and generating suggested changes (e.g., improving question ordering, question phrasing, question type, etc.). For example, in one or more embodiments, the response prediction system predicts response quality based on extracted survey characteristics. The response prediction system uses the predicted response quality to generate suggested changes before publishing the survey. Additionally, the response prediction system collects feedback by analyzing responses after the survey has been published to update suggested changes specific to the survey.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to improve candidate search and measurement in non-standalone (NSA) and standalone (SA) 5G new radio (NR) multi-radio access technology (RAT) environments. For Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) NR-dual connectivity (EN-DC), a user equipment (UE) skips 5G band measurements for an initial search or an out-of-service (OOS) search. For SA dual connectivity, the UE avoids 5G remaining band (RBS) scans and limits 5G deviated band search (DBS) scans to bands configured for the carrier.
