  • Patent number: 12299427
    Abstract: A process assessment platform for automatic query calibration in sequenced models can be used to generate system actions in management of process deployments. System actions can be generated by using a set of input data from one or more process management systems that define a workflow. The input data can include a set of observed task board information item properties for a particular structured process of the workflow. Using the set of input data, a first AI model can dynamically identify a set of actions from the structured process to be executed. Using the identified set of actions, a second AI model can dynamically classify particular dimensions of the set of task board information items and determine a degree of completion therefor.

  • Patent number: 12199954
    Abstract: A brownfield security gateway is configured to support a trusted execution environment (TEE) that employs cryptographic and physical security—which forms a trusted cyber physical system—to protect sensitive transmissions on route to a controllable device. The gateway may be implemented with a System on Chip (SoC) that utilizes an application layer gateway to filter content within a transmission. When the application layer gateway authorizes the transmission, the transmission is forwarded to a trusted peripheral device that is configured with communication transport protocols, and the trusted peripheral device transfers the transmission to the controllable device. The trusted peripheral device and the controllable device are physically protected by, for example, protected distribution systems. Accordingly, the trusted peripheral device functions as a gateway between the SoC and the controllable device.

  • Patent number: 11429257
    Abstract: To assist with using a network based application program, a context-aware help interface is provided. The help interface may be dynamically updated and contemporaneously displayed along with a user interface. User interface accesses, such as from client use of the application program, may be tracked and used to identify contexts for the client. A context includes identifying a current application program feature or functionality accessed by the client. A hierarchical context identifier may be determined by tracking multiple user interface accesses. The hierarchical context identifier may be used to search for help content to display in the help interface. Search results may be optimized for content and presentation. Artificial intelligence may be employed to identify, based at least in part on accesses represented by one or more hierarchical context identifier, a client's experience level or needs so that help content may be tailored appropriately.

  • Patent number: 11270738
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for determining playback points in media assets based on both a keyword and a context of a current playback point in a media asset. For example, in response to user input of a keyword (e.g., “Matt Damon”) while the user is consuming a media asset, a current playback point in the media asset is determined. Context of the media asset at the current playback point is then determined (e.g., the current playback point involves a car chase). Playback points in the media asset are determined that match both the context and the keyword and are presented to the user (e.g., playback points with Matt Damon in a car chase).
