A method and system for automated routing of pictures taken on mobile electronic devices to a digital picture frame including a camera, microphone, and speaker integrated with the frame, and a network connection module allowing the frame for direct contact and upload of photos from electronic devices or from photo collections of community members. Clustering photos by content is used to improve display and to respond to photo viewer desires. Trends or patterns can be detected from the photo collections and that information used for various purposes beyond photo display. The frame includes a conversational intelligence that provides a verbal communication with a viewer, such as for determining an identity or preferences of the frame viewer, determining photos to display for the viewer, discussing displayed photos with the viewer, or telling stories to the viewer based upon photo content.

Systems and processes described herein are for monitoring data records and predicting changes to coded values in the data records. More specifically, this disclosure relates to predicting and potentially preventing anomalies represented in data records by predicting values of entries to be added to the data records and causing a prophylactic response to the predicted anomaly to prevent the anomaly from occurring.

Generating high-fidelity predictions of changes to coded data records

A method in a data processing system and apparatus for organizing files, data items, web site members, or web pages, structured or unstructured, of multiple users stored across one or more server computers into hierarchical file structures on a recordable medium of a data processing system. A user-defined metalabel is assigned to each of the electronic files, data items, web site members, or web pages that are organized as a function of the metalabels into the hierarchical file structures. The method includes automatically weighting of individual metalabels as a function of a relevance of the at least one searchable term found in the corresponding one of the electronic files, data items, web site members, or web pages. Searching the plurality of hierarchical structures can then be done with a query including at least one term and a relevance threshold returning the matched data.

Technologies are described for reconstructing facial models which are preserved images or images captured from security cameras. The reconstructed models can be three-dimensional (3D) point clouds and can be compared to existing facial models and/or other reconstructed models based on physical geometry. The 3D point cloud models can be encoded into one or more latent space feature vector representations which can allow both local and global geometric properties of a face to be described. The one or more feature vector representations of a target face can be used individually or in combination with other descriptors for recognition, retrieval, and classification tasks. Neural networks can be used in the encoding of the one or more feature vector representations.

Technologies are described for retrieving documents using image representations in the documents and is based on intra-image features. The identification of elements within an image representation can allow for deeper understanding of the image representation and for better relating image representations based on their intra-image features. The intra-image features present in image representations can be used in searches. Search results can further be reranked to improve search results. For example, reranking can allow search results to conform to intra-image dominant image features.

A machine-learning tool learns from sensors' data of a nuclear reactor at steady state and maps them to controls of the nuclear reactor. The tool learns all given ranges of normal operation and responses for corrective measures. The tool may train another learning tool (or the same tool) that forecasts the behavior of the reactor based on real-time changes (e.g., every 10 seconds). The tool implements an optimization technique for differing half-life materials to be placed in the reactor. The tool maximizes isotope production based on optimal controls of the reactor.
