    Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for dynamically generating programming code for implementing input data fields that automatically verifies formatting of input data based on platform agnostic formatting rules. A user interface page is obtained for display on a user device, wherein the user interface page is configured to obtain data from a user. Based on first programming code associated with the interface page, formatting rules are retrieved from a remote server. Second programming code that implements one or more input data fields on the user interface page is generated based on the formatting rules. The user interface page with the one or more input data fields is rendered on the user device for obtaining user data. Based on the second programming code, the user data inserted into the one or more input data fields is automatically formatted.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for partial application data collection are disclosed. The method stores a network accessible application having a plurality of form fields. One or more processors generate a session identifier (ID) and timestamp for a user accessing the application. The one or more processors determine that a state within a form field of one of the plurality of form fields is in focus, the state of the form field being in focus when the user selects the form field. Additionally, it is determined when the state within the form field is no longer in focus. At that time, a countdown timer is initiated. When the countdown time reaches zero, any data entered into the form field is collected. The collected data and the session ID are then combined into a single user data file.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for visio-linguistic understanding using contextual language model reasoner. The method converts the visual information of an input image into a format that the contextual language model reasoner understands and accepts for a downstream task. The method utilizes the image captions and confidence score associated with the image captions along with a knowledge graph to obtain a combined input in a format compatible with the contextual language model reasoner. Contextual embeddings corresponding to the downstream task is obtained using the combined input. The disclosed method is used to solve several downstream tasks such as scene understanding, visual question answering, visual common-sense reasoning and so on.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method for classifying a face image, belonging to a field of artificial intelligence technologies. A face image is acquired. A face features is extracted from the face image. When a face feature collection does not meet a preset trigger condition, a category of the face feature is determined based on categories of existing face features in the face feature collection and a neighbor face feature algorithm. A category of the face image is determined based on the category of the face features.

  • Publication number: 20220019767
    Abstract: A driver recognition system of a vehicle identifies a person approaching the vehicle as a driver or other user. In one approach, the driver recognition system collects data using one or more cameras of the vehicle. The collected data corresponds to the person approaching the vehicle. Based on the collected data, a computing device determines (e.g., using a machine-learning model) whether the person is a user (e.g., driver) associated with the vehicle. If the person is a user associated with the vehicle, then the computing device causes one or more actions to be performed for the vehicle (e.g., controller configuration, boot up of a computing device, updating software using over-the-air update, etc.).
