This patent was filed on February 14, 2022 and was published online on February 27, 2024. From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents o btained the following quote: “Speech recognition systems have progressed to the point where humans can interact with computing devices using their voices. Such systems employ techniques to identify the words spoken by a human user based on the various qualities of a received audio input. Speech recognition combined wit h natural language understanding processing techniques enable speech-based user control of a computing device to perform tasks based on the user’s spoken comman ds. Speech recognition and natural language understanding processing techniques may be referred to collectively or separately herein as speech processing. Speec h processing may also involve converting a user’s speech into text data which ma y then be provided to various text-based software applications.

The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: “Most of the existing force and torque sensors u se contact-based strain gauges to convert strains of local structures caused by the global force and/or torque into electrical signals which will be amplified l ater. The strain gauges are usually bonded to such local structures, correspondi ng electrical signals are obtained when the strain gauges deform along with the local structures, and finally, forces and torques applied to the force and torqu e sensor are determined. For example, the Chinese patent application No. 2012105 89784.7 discloses such a six-dimension force and torque sensor with strain compo nents bonded to mechanical structures. However, each strain gauge is only sensit ive to a unique deformation patterns, but not sensitive to other deformations, w hich makes it is impossible for such strain gauge to be widely used in robots, a utomation industries, and laboratories.

Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Numerous cleaning devices capable of autonomous movement with in swimming pools and spas currently exist. The most common of these devices are APCs, which often are either hydraulic or robotic in type. Hydraulic cleaners v ary water flow for movement, while robotic cleaners typically employ electric mo tors to cause motion. Hydraulic APCs, furthermore, subdivide into “pressure-side ” and “suction-side” cleaners, with pressure-side cleaners being fluidly connect ed to outputs of pumps of pool water circulation systems and suction-side cleane rs being fluidly connected to inputs of such pumps.”

Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Machine learning using artificial intelligence (AI) is used t o provide digital oil field (DOF) solutions. Real-time data from different smart devices may be used to investigate equipment problems, to improve the design, a nd to predict failures. However, those AI solutions may be based on data pattern recognition, which reacts to failures that have already occurred. Therefore, it would be desirable to have systems and methods that are proactive and predict f ailures before they occur so that they may be prevented.”

News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: “Such currently-used apparatus of this type include one hav ing a batch treatment unit, a single-wafer treatment unit, and a rotating mechan ism (see, for example, Japanese Patent Publication (Translation of PCT Applicati on) No. 2016-502275A). The batch treatment unit performs treatment on a pluralit y of substrates collectively. The single-wafer treatment unit performs treatment on substrates one by one.

Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “The present invention relates generally to federated learning , and more particularly to sketched and clustered federated learning with automa tic tuning. “Federated learning is a distributed learning framework that enables training a model from decentralized data located at client sites, without the data ever lea ving the client sites. Compared to a centralized model, in which training requir es all the data to be transmitted to and stored in a central location (e.g., a d ata center), federated learning has the benefits of preserving data privacy whil e avoiding transmission of large volumes.

Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “The proliferation of storage and network devices enables a la rge amount of data to be exchanged and stored. A large amount of data allows ana lysis or predictions that were not feasible before. For example, a big data anal ysis performed on millions of accounts may enable online behavior predictions of consumer behavior.

News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: “In general, industrially made products and/or semi-finishe d products need to receive and pass a quality inspection consisting of a cosmeti c test and a function test before being shipped out to the costumer end. During the conduction of the cosmetic test, visual inspections for a top surface, a bot tom surface, a left surface, a right surface, a front surface, and a bottom surf ace of an industrially made article (i.e., a product or a semi-finished product) are carried out by an inspector according to international testing standards. H owever, practical experiences reveal that the inspector often has missed inspect ion and/or false inspection in case of conducting the visual inspections for the industrially made article. Accordingly, automated optical inspection (AOI) syst em using machine vision technology is developed so as to be implemented in an au tomatic production line, thereby replacing the inspectors to accomplish each ind ustrially made article’s cosmetic test.
