Publication number: 20250134458Abstract: An assistive medical device includes a brace configured to fit around an anatomical joint of a user. One or more sensors, such as an inertial measurement unit and an angle sensor, determine pose (e.g., position and/or orientation) of the brace. A controller receives data from the sensors and compares the data from the sensors to a pose of the anatomical joint that is either measured (e.g., via separate limb pose sensors) or assumed (e.g., by instructing the user to assume a specific pose). Based on the comparison, an indication of the alignment status between the brace and the limb is determined to guide an alignment verification process.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2023Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Todd William Roberts, Bianca Lisa Riello, Owen P.

Publication number: 20250130885Abstract: Reducing utilization of computational resources associated with providing predictions of resolutions to unknown computational errors via context-based historically derived resolutions to known errors may be facilitated. In some embodiments, update-information associated with an automation pipeline feature indicating an error may be received by a system. Based on the update-information, the system determines a context associated with the automation pipeline feature. The system may then determine that the error is associated with an update to a third-party software-development platform. The system may receive a set of messages from the third-party software-development platform indicating source code file-related information. The system may provide the context and the set of messages indicating source code file-related information to a machine learning model to generate a prediction indicating a resolution to the error.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: April 24, 2025Applicant: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Paul George JACKSON, Sunny AU, Andrew James MARRIOTT, Josh Harvey TORBETT, Gavin WILKINSON, Christian Oliver WEBB, Yidi TANG, Daryl Oliver Jude CECILE
