  • Publication number: 20250292030
    Abstract: A method includes: accessing a position of a user in an organization; based on the position, identifying a learning path in a knowledge graph for the user, the learning path including a set of connected nodes within the knowledge graph; retrieving a topic linked to the node in the learning path; prompting the user and a second user to discuss the topic during a guided conversation; based a the transcript of the guided conversation, extracting a captured insight discussed by the user and the second user during the guided conversation; accessing a stored insight linked to the node; calculating a similarity score between the stored insight and the captured insight; calculating a contradiction score between the stored insight and the captured insight; and, if the similarity score exceeds a similarity threshold and the contradiction score falls below a contradiction threshold, confirming correspondence between the captured insight and the stored insight.

  • Publication number: 20250240553
    Abstract: Ear buds may have sensors to gather orientation information such as accelerometer measurements during user movements. A host electronic device may communicate wirelessly with the ear buds and may form part of an ear bud system that supplies the user with coaching and feedback while evaluating user performance of a head movement routine or other exercise routine. During operation, the ear buds may gather accelerometer data in a first reference frame such as a reference frame associated with the ear buds and may use a rotation matrix to rotate the data in the first reference frame into a second reference frame such as a neutral reference frame with a fixed orientation to the earth. The data in the neutral reference frame may be analyzed using a user head pose look-up table to categorize measured user head positions as corresponding to respective user head poses.

  • Publication number: 20240395159
    Abstract: A method includes: accessing language concepts representing a discussion between a pair of users; based on the language concepts, extracting a first insight; calculating a set of distances between the first insight and stored insights represented in nodes contained in a knowledge graph; identifying a second node, in the nodes, representing a second insight associated with a shortest distance, in the set of distances, to the first insight; characterizing a first specificity of the first insight; accessing a second specificity of the second insight; in response to the first specificity exceeding the second specificity, generating a proposed node populated with the first insight and descendent from the second node in the knowledge graph; prompting a user to confirm the proposed node; and, in response to receiving a confirmation of the proposed node, storing the proposed node as a first node in the knowledge graph.
