  • Patent number: 9977829
    Abstract: A combinatorial summarizer includes a plurality of summarization engines, a processor in selective communication with each summarization engine, and computer readable instructions executable by the processor and embodied on a tangible, non-transitory computer readable medium. Each summarization engine is to select a respective plurality of sentences, and generate a relative rank and an associated weight for each sentence of the respective plurality of sentences. The computer readable instructions include instructions to determine a combined weight for each sentence of each respective plurality of sentences. The combined weight is based upon the respective associated weight and a respective relative human rank for each sentence in a set of sentences, including all sentences of each respective plurality of sentences.

  • Patent number: 9977987
    Abstract: A method and apparatus to select from an image (30) of a first sample (28), at least one region (44) digitally captured at a first resolution based upon how a counterfeit identification performance attribute of each region (44) digitally captured at the first resolution correlate to the counterfeit identification performance attribute of the region (44) digitally captured at a second resolution higher than the first resolution. The selected region (44) is used to determine whether the image (30) on a second sample is a counterfeit.

  • Publication number: 20180018392
    Abstract: Topic identification based on functional summarization is disclosed. One example is a system including a plurality of summarization engines, each summarization engine to receive, via a processing system, a document to provide a summary of the document. At least one meta-algorithmic pattern is applied to at least two summaries to provide a meta-summary of the document using the at least two summaries. A content processor identifies, from the meta-summaries, topics associated with the document, maps the identified topics to a collection of topic dimensions, and identifies a representative point based on the identified topics. An evaluator determines distance measures of the representative point from topic dimensions in the collection of topic dimensions, the distance measures indicative of proximity of respective topic dimensions to the representative point. A selector selects a topic dimension to be associated with the document, the selection based on optimizing the distance measures.

  • Publication number: 20180005342
    Abstract: An example method is described in which a processor receives a first plurality of symbols selected from a first set of symbols, translates the first plurality of symbols into a second plurality of symbols selected from an M-ary cyclic symbol set, and writes the second plurality of symbols to a surface. An additional example method is described in which a processor captures an image of at least a portion of a surface, detects a first plurality of symbols from the image, where the first plurality of symbols comprises symbols selected from an M-ary cyclic symbol set, translates the first plurality of symbols into a second plurality of symbols selected from a second set of symbols, and performs at least one task responsive to the second plurality of symbols.

  • Patent number: 9836750
    Abstract: An example apparatus may include a processor and a memory device including computer program code. The memory device and the computer program code may, with the processor, cause the apparatus to receive serialization codes for a first entity in a serialization flow; compare serialization codes for the first entity to serialization codes for a second entity, the second entity being either upstream or downstream of the first entity in the serialization flow; and validating the serialization codes from the first entity by determining if the serialization codes for the first entity are compatible with the serialization codes for the second entity in the serialization flow.
