  • Publication number: 20230377556
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes techniques of generating voices for virtual characters. A plurality of source sounds may be received. The plurality of source sounds may correspond to a plurality of frames of a video. The video may comprise a virtual character. The plurality of source sounds may be converted into a plurality of representations in a latent space using a first model. Each representation among the plurality of representations may comprise a plurality of parameters. The plurality of parameters may correspond to a plurality of sound features. A plurality of sounds may be generated in real time for the virtual character in the video based at least in part on modifying at least one of the plurality of parameters of each representation.

  • Publication number: 20180314678
    Abstract: Techniques described herein provide a domain split display. One or more implementations generate a parent page comprising a content iframe that is a child iframe of the parent page, where the parent page is associated with a first domain and the content iframe is associated with a second domain. Various implementations then generate, within the content iframe, a plurality of grandchild iframes of the parent page that are sibling iframes at a same level within the parent page, where the grandchild iframes are enabled to communicate with each other regardless of domain, such as a first grandchild iframe associated with the first domain and a second grandchild iframe associated with the second domain. In turn, the parent page resizes the content iframe by: receiving, via the first grandchild iframe, size information from the second grandchild iframe and use the size information to resize the content iframe.

  • Patent number: 10031898
    Abstract: Systems and methods for a domain split display are provided. A first request call directed to a first domain is received. In response, a first response is transmitted to a client device, which causes generation of a parent page comprising a content iframe that is a child frame of the parent page. The parent page is associated with the first domain and the content iframe is associated with a second domain. A second request call directed to a second domain is received and a second response is transmitted to the client device. The second response causes a plurality of grandchild iframes to be generated within the content iframe, whereby a first grandchild iframe is associated with the first domain and a second grandchild iframe is associated with the second domain. The plurality of grandchild iframes are sibling iframes at a same level that are enabled to communicate with each other regardless of domain.

  • Patent number: 9515893
    Abstract: In various example embodiments, systems and methods for a domain split display are provided. A first request call directed to a first domain is received. In response, first served content including content retrieved based on the first domain is transmitted to a client device. The first served content is used by the client device to generate a parent page comprising a content iframe, which is associated with a second domain. A second request call directed to a second domain is received and second served content is transmitted to the client device. The second served content includes content retrieved from the second domain. The second served content causes a data receiver iframe associated with the first domain and an event receiver iframe associated with the second domain to be displayed within the content iframe. User-generated content for display in the data receiver iframe is then transmitted.

  • Publication number: 20150066674
    Abstract: Systems and methods to identify and associate related items are described. The system receives listing information describing a part that is offered for sale on a network-based marketplace that includes categories. The listing information includes a title and a category. The system stores the listing information in a listing according to the category. The system parses the title of the listing to identify tokens and to identify whether the tokens match a token in parts descriptors that describe parts that are associated with the first category. The system generates scores based on the tokens and the parts descriptors and may select a part type identifier based on the scores. Finally, the system registers the listing with the parts type identifier and associates listing(s) with the listing based on the parts type identifier. For example, the system may associate listings describing parts that are commonly purchased together.

  • Publication number: 20150032548
    Abstract: A system and method for enhancing OEM parts shopping are provided. In example embodiments, a user interface presents a diagram of a product to a user on which the user drills down into to view one or more schematic from the schematics database. A selection of a portion of the product displayed on the user interface is received. A schematic corresponding to the selected portion on the user interface is presented. The schematic indicates selectable items. A selection of an item of the selectable items on the schematic is received. An option to purchase the selected item is presented in response to the selection of the item.

  • Patent number: 7490334
    Abstract: A resource adapter may include modular system management interface for providing an interface between server-provided management services and back-end systems. Enterprise servers may provide management services and may host application components implementing business logic. Back-end systems may provide resources to the application components. The servers may provide services to the back-end systems to enhance efficiency, scalability, and security. Resource adapters interfacing these systems may include service adapter modules to interface between the servers and the back-end systems. For each service that a server provides to a back-end system, the corresponding resource adapter may include a service adapter module installed in the resource adapters modular system management interface. The service adapter module may isolate the code that may interact the service.

  • Patent number: 6978461
    Abstract: A system and method for automatically creating information useable to access functionality of a backend computer system coupled to an application server. The method may operate to connect to the backend computer system and obtain information specifying functionality of the backend system. The information obtained may be analyzed programmatically, and new information may be programmatically created based on the analysis, wherein the programmatically created information is useable for accessing the functionality of the backend system. For example, where the functionality comprises a programmatically callable function, the information created may include information specifying the function name, names of input and output parameters, data types of the parameters, etc. The programmatically created information may be stored in a repository for use in accessing the functionality of the backend computer system from the application server.
