Abstract: A computer retrieves data from a database. The computer retrieves a Machine Learning (ML) model trained to generate database queries. The computer applies the ML model to generate a primary database query based, at least in part, on a user inquiry available to the computer. The computer retrieves the primary database query, an initial set of data from a database available to the computer. The computer, in response to retrieving the initial set of data, receives feedback assessing the initial set of data. The computer, in response to receiving the feedback, applies a Natural Language Processing (NLP) model to identify query adjustment content within the feedback. The computer revises the primary database query based, at least in part, on the model adjustment content, to generate a secondary database query. The computer retrieves using the secondary database query, a secondary set of data from the database.

Abstract: A system and method for providing on-demand edge compute. The system may include an orchestrator that provides a UI and that controls an abstraction layer for implementing a workflow for providing on-demand edge compute. The abstraction layer may include a server configuration orchestration (SCO) system (e.g., a Metal-as-a-Service (MaaS) system) and API that may provide an interface between the orchestrator and the SCO. The API may enable the orchestrator to communicate with the SCO for receiving requests that enable the SCO to integrate with existing compute resources to perform various compute provisioning tasks (e.g., to build and provision a server instance). The various tasks, when executed, may provide on-demand edge compute service to users. The SCO API may further enable the ECS orchestrator to receive information from the SCO (e.g., compute resource information, status messages).

Abstract: A signal gain determination circuit including a digital comparator, a digital controller and an arithmetic module, and a signal gain determination method are provided. A sensing integration circuit generates a first count during a first integration time according to a first sensing signal. The digital comparator compares the first count and a predetermined count to generate a comparison result.

The signal amplifier adjusts the first sensing signal according to the signal gain to generate a second sensing signal, so that the sensing integration circuit generates a second count corresponding to the second sensing signal during a second integration time. The arithmetic module generates an output count corresponding to the first sensing signal according to the second count and the signal gain.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to processing irregularly arranged characters. An image is received. An irregularly arranged character within the image is detected.
