Abstract: Provided are methods for identifying sub-merchants within a Global Merchant Repository (GMR) that include receiving sub-merchant data associated with one or more sub-merchants, from one or more payment facilitators associated with a plurality of sub-merchants, where the sub-merchant data comprises a Card Acceptor Identifier (CAID) associated with each of the one or more payment facilitators, assigning a plurality of pseudo acquirer identifiers to the sub-merchant data received from each of the one or more payment facilitators, and identifying the one or more sub-merchants in the GMR by mapping the sub-merchant data with transaction data associated with a plurality of merchants in the GMR, based on the plurality of pseudo acquirer identifiers and the CAID associated with the respective payment facilitators. Systems and computer program products are also disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying whether an object is stored within a container (e.g., tote). The system generates, using two or more neural networks, a plurality of predictions on whether the object is stored in a container. The two or more neural networks use two or more sets of images that are captured within different time frames to generate the plurality of predictions. Then, the system determines whether the object is stored in a container based, at least in part, on the plurality of predictions.

Abstract: In various examples, sizes of images that are to be applied to machine learning models may be evaluated with respect to thresholds that correspond to input resolutions of the models. In some examples, if the size of an image is smaller than a threshold corresponding to a certain model's input resolution, the image may be incorporated into a frame that has the same resolution as that model's input resolution. For instance, the image may be copied into the frame at the image's original size, and the rest of the frame may include padding around the image to maintain the frame's resolution at the input resolution. This frame, which may include both the image and the padding, may then be applied to the model. In this way, the image may still be applied to the model at the model's input resolution without scaling and potentially distorting the image.

Abstract: An aspect of the present disclosure facilitates performance of node management actions in a computing infrastructure having diverse node interfaces. In one embodiment, a configuration data is maintained, the configuration data specifying plugins designed to communicate with different node interfaces installed on the nodes of a computing infrastructure. The plugins are corresponding implementations of a common client interface. Upon receiving from the client application, via the common client interface, a management action to be performed on a desired node, the configuration data is inspected to identify a specific plugin corresponding to the node interface installed on the desired node. The node management action is then performed on the desired node using the identified specific plugin. Accordingly, the client application can be implemented agnostic to the specific node interfaces installed on a node.

Abstract: Existing approaches for processing and evaluation of documents containing non-fiction narrative texts have the disadvantage that they are comparatively less studied in linguistics, and hence do not provide sufficient data required for evaluations. Method and system are for evaluating non-fiction narrative text documents are provided. The system processes a plurality of non-fiction narrative text documents and computes a plurality of corpus statistics. The plurality of corpus statistics is then used for evaluation of any non-fiction narrative text document that may or may not be collected as real-time input.

Abstract: Talent Artificial Intelligence Virtual Agent (“TAIVA”) performs the function of an artificial intelligence driven career coach agent. The invention may serve the human resource, talent analytics, employee engagement and independent career coach functions for enterprises and professionals. Similar to a career coach who works with talent and helps them discover better opportunities and growth, this invention uses the power of machine learning and collaborative findings to discover the opportunities. The system's capabilities range from providing suggestions on career changes, helping grow in cluster of skillsets, crowd collaborate to task level gigs, build capabilities etc. The system starts with small interactions and as it learns about the candidate and other members in the network, it will use the power of Artificial intelligence, collaborative findings and global trends to create adaptive and relevant suggestive map and progress dashboard for the candidates just like a career coach.

Abstract: An IP packet may include an IP header and one or more optional IP extension headers. The packet may contain non-IP protocol data in one of the IP extension headers. An application that uses non-IP protocol data may use the non-IP protocol data from the IP extension header. This allows an application designed for a non-IP protocol stack to operate on a device with an IP protocol stack with minimal modification. The non-IP protocol data may alternatively support non-IP routing options within a network or sub-network.

Abstract: Analytics Virtualization is a system and method for bridging data and readily usable autonomous computational model based applications using one to many, many to one and many to many relationship. A generalized system is created that allows any data contained virtualized folder to utilize any number of computational model application via a centralized facilitator framework. Framework could be standalone or comprising of network of devices. Devices include but not limited to computers, notebook, tablet, handhelds, smartphones or a custom electronic device. The centralized facilitator framework, acting as a bridging and controlling agent carries all the logistical information that helps connect appropriate data carrying virtual folder with relevant computational model application. This creates an analytics virtualization system that connects right data silos to the right computation model without having them present at the same physical location.

The first image and the second image includes depth information and at least one non-redundant portion. A first disparity map of the first image is computed based on the depth information associated with the first image. At least one region of interest (ROI) associated with the at least one non-redundant portion is determined in the first image based on the depth information associated with the first image. A second disparity map of at least one region in the second image corresponding to the at least one ROI of the first image is computed. The first disparity map and the second disparity map are merged to estimate an optimized depth map of the scene.
