Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein provide a system that can display messages from an original thread and activate a split of the original thread by splitting content of a single message into the two threads. For instance, if a single message within a chat thread is related to two topics, the system can split the content of the single message into separate portions and associate the portions into two different chat threads that are respectively related to two different topics. In response to a division of a single message, the system can parse portions of the message by topic and use that parsed content to generate messages in child threads. The child threads can each use customized topics and each child thread can be generated using content from messages of the original thread.

Abstract: A controller is capable of controlling an asset or target in physical and/or virtual three-dimensional space using a single hand by generating control inputs in four or more degrees of freedom while also limiting cross-coupling (unintended motions). The controller includes a first control member is configured to be gripped in a user's single, second control member is disposed on or near a top end of the first member movable with at least one degree of freedom independently of the movement of the first control member, and a third control member positioned on the first member for displacement by one or more digits of the user's single hand and coupled with the second member to move in opposition to movement of the second control member.

Abstract: A set of distance measurable encrypted feature vectors can be derived from any biometric data and/or physical or logical user behavioral data, and then using an associated deep neural network (“DNN”) on the output (i.e., biometric feature vector and/or behavioral feature vectors, etc.) an authentication system can determine matches or execute searches on encrypted data. Behavioral or biometric encrypted feature vectors can be stored and/or used in conjunction with respective classifications, or in subsequent comparisons without fear of compromising the original data. In various embodiments, the original behavioral and/or biometric data is discarded responsive to generating the encrypted vectors. In another embodiment, distance measurable or homomorphic encryption enables computations and comparisons on cypher-text without decryption of the encrypted feature vectors. Security of such privacy enabled embeddings can be increased by implementing an assurance factor (e.g.

Abstract: Helper neural network can play a role in augmenting authentication services that are based on neural network architectures. For example, helper networks are configured to operate as a gateway on identification information used to identify users, enroll users, and/or construct authentication models (e.g., embedding and/or prediction networks). Assuming, that both good and bad identification information samples are taken as part of identification information capture, the helper networks operate to filter out bad identification information prior to training, which prevents, for example, identification information that is valid but poorly captured from impacting identification, training, and/or prediction using various neural networks. Additionally, helper networks can also identify and prevent presentation attacks or submission of spoofed identification information as part of processing and/or validation.

Abstract: A heat exchanger system for transferring heat between two fluids that includes at least two heat exchangers each having a top and bottom. The heat exchangers include a fluid collector, multiphase distributor, and a plurality of multi-duct tubes coupled therewith. One fluid flows around the multi-duct tubes, while the other fluid flows within the multi-duct tubes, with heat transfer occurring via a fluidically separate coupling of the fluids. One heat exchanger is configured with an upward flow design, for heating, in which the two fluids flow opposite to gravity and parallel to each other through the heat exchanger (bottom to top). The other heat exchanger is configured with a downward flow design, for cooling, in which one fluid flows opposite to gravity through the heat exchanger (bottom to top) and the other fluid flows anti-parallel to the one fluid with gravity through the heat exchanger (top to bottom).

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for long read, label-free, optical nanopore long chain molecule sequencing. In general, the present disclosure describes a novel sequencing technology based on the integration of nanochannels to deliver single long-chain molecules with widely spaced (>wavelength), ˜1-nm aperture “tortuous” nanopores that slow translocation sufficiently to provide massively parallel, single base resolution using optical techniques. A novel, directed self-assembly nanofabrication scheme using simple colloidal nanoparticles is used to form the nanopore arrays atop nanochannels that unfold the long chain molecules. At the surface of the nanoparticle array, strongly localized electromagnetic fields in engineered plasmonic/polaritonic structures allow for single base resolution using optical techniques.

Abstract: Technologies for token-based access authorization to an application program interface (API) include an access management server to receive a service request message from an application executed by a remote computing device. The service request message includes a digitally signed license token previously generated by the access management server and distributed to the remote computing device. The service request message also includes a request from the executed application to access data or a service of the resource server via an exposed API. The access management server verifies the digital signature of the digitally signed license token and generates a digitally signed Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) token. The digitally signed SAML token is transmitted to the resource server for verification and local caching. The resource server receives the service request message and determines whether access to the requested data or service is authorized based on the locally-cached SAML token.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a fully encrypted private identity based on biometric and/or behavior information can be used to securely identify any user efficiently. According to various aspects, once identification is secure and computationally efficient, the secure identity/identifier can be used across any number of devices to identify a user an enable functionality on any device based on the underlying identity, and even switch between identified users seamlessly all with little overhead. In some embodiments, devices can be configured to operate with function sets that transition seamlessly between the identified users, even, for example, as they pass a single mobile device back and forth. According to some embodiments, identification can extend beyond the current user of any device, into identification of actors responsible for activity/content on the device.

Abstract: Systems, methods and products for determining a consumer-facing price using a demand model that is generated based on historical transactional data. One embodiment comprises a method implemented in a pricing module of an automotive data processing system. Data that identifies a consumer (or consumer group) and a vehicle type are received and the demand model is accessed to generate a payment corresponding to the attributes of the consumer and the attributes of the vehicle type. The demand model may be implemented in a machine learning engine that maintains a set of weights ? used in a predictive demand function. The weights are adjusted by the machine learning engine to minimize a loss function which measures deviation of demand estimated by the predictive demand function from the demand indicated by a set of historical transaction data.
