Patent number: 11966418Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for adaptive data replication. A first data object is stored. One or more first network characteristics of a communication network are detected. A first replication mode is triggered (e.g., a single-master replication mode) based on the one or more first network characteristics of the communication network. The single-master replication may be configured to facilitate real-time synchronizations (e.g., for critical updates). One or more second network characteristics of the communication network are detected. A second replication mode (e.g., a multi-master replication mode) is triggered based on the one or more second network characteristics. The second replication may be configured to facilitate a delayed synchronization (e.g., for non-critical updates) of the first data object and the second data object using the second update file.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2023Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Palantir Technologies Inc.Inventors: Peter Wilczynski, Ryan Zheng, John Carrino, Timothy Wilson, Stephen Freiberg, John Garrod, William Waldrep

Publication number: 20240012471Abstract: A variable effect activation system includes one or more sensors that generate data. The data can be assessed to determine if the data is indicative of a valid input to an interactive effect. Valid inputs may be assessed based on a lenient or relatively non-stringent threshold to permit a wide variety of guest actions to be considered valid inputs. While many of these guest actions may not be recognized as part of preprogrammed interactions with an interactive environment, the system nonetheless assesses characteristics of these inputs to provide an appropriate response, e.g., via activation of an interactive effect in a manner that aligns with the characteristics.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: Victor Lugo, William Wilson, Hannah Pogue, Jacob Edelen, Charles Babb, Robert Wiedemann, Robert Michael Jordan, Michelle Smith

Patent number: 11783849Abstract: This specification describes computer-implemented methods and systems. One method includes receiving, by a neural network of a speech recognition system, first data representing a first raw audio signal and second data representing a second raw audio signal. The first raw audio signal and the second raw audio signal describe audio occurring at a same period of time. The method further includes generating, by a spatial filtering layer of the neural network, a spatial filtered output using the first data and the second data, and generating, by a spectral filtering layer of the neural network, a spectral filtered output using the spatial filtered output. Generating the spectral filtered output comprises processing frequency-domain data representing the spatial filtered output. The method still further includes processing, by one or more additional layers of the neural network, the spectral filtered output to predict sub-word units encoded in both the first raw audio signal and the second raw audio signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Ehsan Variani, Kevin William Wilson, Ron J.
