Abstract: A system and method to provide computer support for a meeting of invitees comprises accessing one or more sensory data streams providing digitized sensory data responsive to an activity of one or more of the invitees during the meeting, the one or more sensory data streams including at least one audio stream. The method also comprises subjecting the at least one audio stream to phonetic and situational computer modeling to recognize a sequence of words in the audio stream and to assign each word to an invitee, subjecting the sequence of words to semantic computer modeling to recognize a sequence of directives in the sequence of words, and releasing one or more output data streams based on the sequence of directives, the one or more output data streams including one or more notifications.

Abstract: Biases in search and retrieval (i.e., situations where searchers seek or are presented with information that significantly deviates from the truth) may be detected by comparison to one or more authoritative sources. Once bias or potential bias is detected, techniques may be applied to indicate and/or compensate for the bias. Such techniques may allow users to more easily assess the veracity of search results, and increase the chances that users will locate accurate answers to their questions.

Abstract: A surgical instrument includes a rack, a first arm coupled to the rack, a second arm coupled to the rack, a first tower coupled to the first arm, and a second tower coupled to the second arm. The first tower comprises an upper end, a lower end, and a track between the upper end and the lower end. A channel of the first arm is configured to receive the track of the first tower and selectively position the first arm along the track of the first tower. The lower end of the first tower is configured to snap onto a pedicle screw and to disengage from the pedicle screw in response to a removal tool being inserted into the first tower.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for user interaction and task completion using multiple devices. A set of devices may be used to perform a task, such that different devices may perform different steps of the task. A device management service may update state information at each device of the set, thereby enabling a user to interact with any of the computing devices to perform the task. A device management service may also automatically determine which device should be used by the user, based on task or step requirements, device characteristics, and device capabilities, among other examples. Thus, rather than being required to continue a task on the same device (even when the device is not well-suited for the current step or task), the user is provided with the option to use and, in some instances, is automatically transitioned to use, different devices within the set.

Abstract: A method for monitoring quality of a conferencing session between a plurality of participant devices is described. One or more data streams of the conferencing session are monitored. Presenter contextual information is determined for media transmitted over the one or more data streams by a presenter device of the plurality of participant devices. A mismatch is identified between the presenter contextual information and a first participant contextual information for a first participant device of the plurality of participant devices. A mismatch notification is provided to the presenter device for an identified mismatch.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for dynamically providing a tool bar in a user interface is provided. The method includes determining at least one action that is commonly performed based on data displayed on a current page of a graphical user interface of a communications device, creating a tool bar comprising at least one icon representing the at least one action, associating the tool bar with the current page of the graphical user interface, and providing the tool bar to the communications device for display on the current page of the graphical user interface.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to antibodies, activatable antibodies, multispecific antibodies, and multispecific activatable antibodies that specifically bind to at least CD3, as well as to methods of making and using these antibodies, activatable antibodies, multispecific antibodies, and/or multispecific activatable antibodies in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic and prophylactic indications.

Abstract: Generally discussed herein are devices, systems, and methods for eye contact assistance in a video conference. A method can include determining a location of the web camera relative to a display, providing a user interface of the video conference on the display, and providing, on the user interface, a graphic display of information at pixels of the display that are most proximate the location.

Abstract: Generally discussed herein are devices, systems, and methods for contextual messaging in a conference. A method can include receiving, by a first user interface, data indicating content of a message, a recipient of the message, and a condition that, when satisfied during the conference, causes the message to be visually displayed during the audiovisual conference, while the conference is being held via an audiovisual conference application, monitoring user contextual data for whether the condition is satisfied, responsive to the condition being satisfied, augmenting audiovisual conference data from the audiovisual conference application to include the message resulting in augmented audiovisual data, and providing, to the recipient on a second user interface of the audiovisual conference application, a view of the augmented audiovisual data.

Abstract: A system for examining an animal that includes a kiosk housing having an analysis zone. The system includes a persuasion delivery device in the analysis zone. The system includes a dispensing machine to dispense an animal attractant to the persuasion delivery device. The system includes a set of sensors located in the analysis zone to sense real-time data related to health of an animal. The set of sensors includes at least one sensor to sense within the analysis zone at least one biological parameter of the animal related to the health. A method is provided using the system that autonomously guides the animal to the analysis zone by a predisposition of the animal to hunt for an animal attractant so that biological parameters of the animal related to the health of the animal are sensed in a stress-free or reduced stress environment.

Abstract: The invention described provides a way to use video image to estimate the human artery blood pressure reducing or completely eliminating the need for human contact (non invasive). Since video images can be stored and transmitted, the estimation of the blood pressure can be performed locally, remotely and in real time or offline.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for scheduling a task of a user based on a cyber-physical-social (CPS) context of activities. The present disclosure is directed to increasing the efficiency of performing tasks by grouping tasks with the same or similar task CPS contexts so that they are performed in conjunction with one another. A stream of user activities is received that encompasses the CPS context, tasks are identified and classified based on a CPS context model. The CPS model is trained using CPS context and annotations for identified tasks as input to create classes of tasks. The classes of tasks from the model are used to group similar tasks. The present disclosure enables users to receive recommendations on clustering tasks with the same or similar contexts based on an online tool, a location, and collaborators to be performed together to improve productivity.
