    Study Findings from Aix-Marseille University Broaden Understand- ing of Machine Learning (Beyond Geofencing: Behavior Detection Using Ais)

    105-106页
    查看更多>>摘要:Research findings on Machine Learning are discussed in a new report. According to news originating from Marseille, France, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "This research paper proposes two different methods for removing biases from geo-spatial trajectories obtained from AIS, enabling the creation of machine learning models that generalize well to areas with no training data." Financial support for this research came from Region SUD, France. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Aix-Marseille University, "We focus here on the task of behavior detection such as moored, underway or drifting from AIS. The first method utilizes data augmentation techniques specifically designed for augmenting geo-spatial trajectories that include angled information such as direction, while the second method is based on engineering features that eliminate these geographical biases." According to the news editors, the research concluded: "These two methods are compared using different types of machine learning models, including random forests, hidden Markov models, LSTMs, and transformer networks."

    Patent Issued for Filtering notifications and messages (USPTO 11895071)

    106-110页
    查看更多>>摘要:According to news reporting originating from Alexandria, Virginia, by NewsRx jour- nalists, a patent by the inventors Edwards, Joshua (Philadelphia, PA, US), Maiman, Tyler (Melville, NY, US), Tikoian, Kathryn (South Orange, NJ, US), filed on July 19, 2022, was published online on February 6, 2024. The assignee for this patent, patent number 11895071, is Capital One Services LLC (McLean, Virginia, United States). Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "Computing devices present notifications to users for various purposes, such as providing information, announcing events, warning about impending situations, and so forth. At least some of these notifications may be generated initially by a corresponding application to deliver information managed by the application. As the computing power of user devices such as mobile phones has increased, phones are now capable of running several applications simultaneously with each application potentially generating notifications for the phone user. For example, an email application of a mobile device can generate a pop-up message for display on an interface of the mobile device when a new email is received (e.g., on the lock screen or home screen). In some instances, other applications may generate badge notifications and push notifications. Notifications are generated for other sources capable of providing information to or that support the functionality of the computing device. For instance, notifications may be generated for short message service (SMS) messages, phone calls, voicemails, and social-networking service events.

    'Automatically Resolving, With Reduced User Inputs, A Set Of Activity Instances For A Group Of Users' in Patent Application Approval Process (USPTO 20240048606)

    110-115页
    查看更多>>摘要:A patent application by the inventors Koonce, Philip (Zurich, CH); Lance, Marcos Calvo (Zurich, CH), filed on October 20, 2023, was made available online on February 8, 2024, according to news reporting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx correspondents. This patent application has not been assigned to a company or institution. The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background information supplied by the inventors: "A group of users can utilize an ongoing communication thread to determine a set of multiple activities in which the group will cooperatively participate. For example, a group of users may utilize respective mobile devices to exchange electronic messages (e.g., chat messages, emails, and/or text messages) in coordinating a night out that includes three activities: pre-dinner drinks, dinner, and a movie. Coordination of such activities requires a large quantity of electronic messages to be exchanged via the communication thread in order to resolve varying interests of users of the group, to resolve pre-existing time conflicts of the users, etc. Such message exchanges consume network resources (e.g., through transmission of the messages) and client device resources (e.g., through preparing a message to send and/or through rendering of a received message). Further, one or more users of the group will often utilize search engines, peruse webpages, and/or utilize other resources in determining a set of activities. Such utilization of resources in determining a set of activities can likewise consume network and/or client device resources.

    Patent Issued for Systems and methods for artificial intelligence (AI) three-dimensional modeling (USPTO 11893683)

    115-118页
    查看更多>>摘要:From Alexandria, Virginia, NewsRx journalists report that a patent by the inventors Roy, Douglas L. (Plantsville, CT, US), Scanlon, Ryan M. (East Hampton, CT, US), Ton-That, Hoa (Glastonbury, CT, US), filed on February 23, 2023, was published online on February 6, 2024. The patent's assignee for patent number 11893683 is The Travelers Indemnity Company (Hartford, Connecticut, United States). News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "Various types of assessments are based on layouts or contents of structures. Room sizes, furnishings, wall or floor covering materials, finishes, etc., may be utilized, for example, to evaluate or estimate variable values for a variety of purposes, such as construction or maintenance estimations, insurance coverage or claims evaluations, appraisal processes, or safety inspections (e.g., municipal inspections). Manual measurement processes have largely been replaced by advancing technologies, such as Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), mobile photogrammetry, or Augmented Reality (AR) programs. Each of these options provides certain benefits but is also subject to various deficiencies. While LiDAR and mobile photogrammetry offer precise results, for example, the hardware and software required for such solutions remains expensive and requires significant training to properly employ. AR programs, which may be available for execution on consumer electronic devices, such as smart phones, offer a lower cost and more easily operated solution, but provide limited precision while consuming large amounts of data storage, processing power, or network bandwidth."

    查看更多>>摘要:A patent application by the inventors Amtrup, Jan W. (Silver Spring, MD, US); Ma, Jiyong (San Diego, CA, US); Thompson, Stephen Michael (Oceanside, CA, US), filed on October 10, 2023, was made available online on February 8, 2024, according to news reporting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx correspondents. This patent application has not been assigned to a company or institution. The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background information supplied by the inventors: "Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is an emerging field of intelligent automation that seeks to improve the efficiency of performing repetitive tasks. Existing work in this field is primarily human-driven in that the tasks to be performed are expressly defined by a project leader, system administrator, engineer, etc. From this manually-defined workflow, an algorithm is developed to handle the various portions of the overall task, relieving human users from the burden of repetitively performing the task. "While conventional RPA has advanced with respect to the manner in which inputs may be detected and analyzed, conventional techniques do not provide solutions for the problem of delineating between different tasks performed throughout a given period of time, analyzing those tasks to determine different sequences of actions taken by numerous users, and identifying processes for automating tasks based on the identified tasks and users' solutions thereto.
