Abstract: Described herein is a technique to facilitate filtering during candidate retrieval stage performed by an information retrieval system that utilizes embedding models. An aNN indexing structure is created for each end-user, and in some instances, each activity type. This allows a single request for candidate content items to invoke a single process to obtain content items that satisfy the filtering criteria (e.g., in this case, the in-network requirement) from the separate per-end-user indexes.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a system and method of developing a search database for automated content curation. The processing arrangement is configured to store a plurality of slides related to one or more fields in the database arrangement, generate a plurality of thumbnails from the stored plurality of slides, extract a plurality of metadata from the plurality of thumbnails, wherein the plurality of metadata are extracted by processing the generated plurality of thumbnails through an optical character reader, store the extracted plurality of metadata into the search database, create an index comprising of associations between the plurality of slides, the plurality of associated metadata and the generated plurality of thumbnails, store the created index in the search database and curate content from the index of the search database based on the one or more search strings.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a system for content curation and collaboration. The system comprises a database arrangement configured to store an uncurated and/or a curated content and a data processing arrangement communicably coupled to the database arrangement. The data processing arrangement is configured to enable secured access of a user to the uncurated and/or the curated content stored in the database arrangement, identify at least one content relevant to the user from the uncurated and/or the curated content stored in the database arrangement based on at least one input received from the user, and provide the relevant content to the user in a desired format.

Abstract: An IV catheter system may have a catheter component with a catheter hub, a cannula extending distally from the catheter hub, and a push feature adjacent to the catheter hub. The IV catheter system may also have a needle component with a needle hub, a needle extending distally from the needle hub along an axis, and a grip extending from the needle hub, generally parallel to the axis, with a pull feature. In the insertion configuration, the needle may be positioned within the cannula and the distal end of the needle hub may be seated in a needle port of the catheter hub. In the fluid delivery configuration, the needle may be positioned outside the catheter hub. The push and pull features may be positioned to facilitate manipulation with a single hand to move the IV catheter system from an insertion configuration to a fluid delivery configuration.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to generating neural network (NN) output using input data representing various types of events, such as input representing a certain type of event and also an engagement metric that may be representative of a property of the event or representative of a related but different type of event. For example, the output values generated using the NN may be associated with the likelihood that certain future events will occur, given the occurrence of certain past or current events. The output can then be modified (e.g., re-ranked, adjusted, etc.) based on the occurrence of certain other past or current events.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to training, and providing recommendations via, a temporal ensemble of neural networks. The neural networks in the temporal ensemble can be trained at different times. For example, a neural network can be periodically trained using current item interaction data, for example once per day using purchase histories of users of an electronic commerce system. The item interaction data can be split into a more recent group and a less recent group, for example the last two weeks of data and the remainder of the last two years of data. The periodic training of neural networks, using updated data and the sliding windows created by the date split, results in a number of different models for predicting item interaction events. Using a collection of these neural networks together as a temporal ensemble can increase recommendation accuracy without requiring additional hardware for training.

Abstract: User interface state (UI) information (such as UI control values) are stored and revived when the user navigates and returns to an application. When an instance of a page is created, the page registers with a tombstone list and indicates which page state information on the page is to be stored and revived when a user navigates away from the application. When the user provides an input indicating navigation away from the application, the application accesses the tombstone list and stores the UI page state information. UI page state information is stored in a page state dictionary data structure that corresponds to the current instance of the page. Then, when the user navigates back to the application, the application accesses the page state dictionary and restores the values of the UI page state information so that the user interface display is in the same state as when the user navigated away from the application.

Abstract: A method that improves utilization of the full capacity of a delivery agent is disclosed. Initially the method may determine an arrival time for a delivery agent to arrive at a destination. The method may receive state data associated with the delivery agent where the state data comprises capacity data and location data for the delivery agent. The method may identify that an item is available for pick up from an additional location for delivery to the destination location. The method may calculate that the delivery agent has capacity for the item and that the delivery agent may pick up the item and still arrive at the destination location by the scheduled time. The method may update the first delivery route of the delivery agent to a second delivery route, where the second delivery route includes the additional location having the item available for pick up.
