Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for monitoring of one or more A/V collection devices within a premises. Based on the monitoring, one or more computing devices may determine whether to route or block a data transmission outside a premises. The data transmission may be routed or blocked based on, for example, one or more of the following: whether a transmission window associated with an A/V collection device is open or closed; whether the data transmission is being sent to an authorized destination device; whether the data transmission is encrypted, and the like.

Abstract: A window in a multi-window display configuration is provided. A gaze of one or more users is directed at the window. The multi-window display configuration has a plurality of windows that are each configured to display corresponding content. Further, a window attribute of the window is modified based upon the gaze. In addition, a request for the content corresponding to the window is sent to a server. The content corresponding to the window is received from the server. The content corresponding to the window is then displayed according to the modified window attribute at the window.

Abstract: A cleaning device includes a body having an inlet and an opposing outlet. Each of the inlet and outlet has peripheral edges. The body includes a hollow interior between the inlet and the outlet. The outlet is adapted to be connected to a vacuum cleaner or a handle and the inlet is adapted to make contact with a cleaning surface. The inlet includes a support member extending from the inlet peripheral edge. The cleaning device also includes an elongated member having a contact surface and an attachment surface. The attachment surface is formed within a channel which is coupled with the support member. The contact surface is adapted to come in contact with the cleaning surface. The contact surface includes a plurality of flanges extending radially throughout the length of the elongated member such that the flanges penetrate the cleaning surface to dislodge and collect debris.

Abstract: A cleaning device includes a base member extending with a first distal end and a first proximal end. The first proximal end is at an angle relative to the first distal end. A support member extends between a second distal end and a second proximal end. At least one support flange couples the base member and the support member. An extension member extends from the second distal end. At least one teeth member comprises a contact surface and an attachment surface. The attachment surface is formed with an inner channel, and the inner channel is coupled with one of the first distal and proximal ends. The contact surface has outer flanges with an outer channel formed therein. The contact surface is adapted to come in contact with a cleaning surface such that the outer flanges penetrate the cleaning surface to dislodge and collect debris.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to identifying a user consuming content so that the user can share information on a social network communication service. Aspects of the disclosure relate to detecting reactions to the content and transmitting information to a social networking service associated with the user.

Abstract: Custom acoustic models can be configured by developers by providing audio files with custom recordings. The custom acoustic model is trained by tuning a baseline model using the audio files. Audio files may contain custom noise to apply to clean speech for training. The custom acoustic model is provided as an alternative to a standard acoustic model. A speech recognition system can select an acoustic model for use upon receiving metadata about the device conditions or type. Speech recognition is performed on speech audio using one or more acoustic models. The result can be provided to developers through the user interface, and an error rate can be computed and also provided.

Abstract: A method of performing instructions in a computer processor architecture includes determining that a load instruction is being dispatched. Destination related data of the load instruction is written into a mapper of the architecture. A determination that a compare immediate instruction is being dispatched is made. A determination that a branch conditional instruction is being dispatched is made. The branch conditional instruction is configured to wait until the load instruction produces a result before the branch conditional instruction issues and executes. The branch conditional instruction skips waiting for a finish of the compare immediate instruction.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for displaying content. In an aspect, a plurality of content items can be displayed on one user device according to user preference. An example method can comprise positioning a first set of pixels associated with a user device so that first content displayed via the first set of pixels can be viewable in a first viewing location. A second set of pixels associated with the user device can be positioned so that second content displayed via the second set of pixels can be viewable in a second viewing location. The second content can be different from the first content.

Abstract: A process generates a certificate of authenticity for a virtual item. Further, the process sends, with the processor, the certificate of authenticity to a decentralized network of computing devices such that two or more of the computing devices store the certificate of authenticity. The two or more of the computing devices receive, from a user device that provides a virtual reality experience in which a virtual item is purchased, a request for authentication of the certificate of authenticity. In addition, the two or more computing devices authenticate the certificate of authenticity based on one or more consistency criteria for the certificate of authenticity being met by the two or more computing devices.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for displaying content. In an aspect, a plurality of content items can be displayed on one user device according to user preference. An example method can comprise positioning a first set of pixels associated with a user device so that first content displayed via the first set of pixels can be viewable in a first viewing location. A second set of pixels associated with the user device can be positioned so that second content displayed via the second set of pixels can be viewable in a second viewing location. The second content can be different from the first content.

Abstract: Techniques for personalized gamification of media content. An engagement level of a consumer is identified based on prior gamification data. A difficulty level is identified using machine learning based on the engagement level. A content element personalized for the consumer is generated based on biographical information or viewing habits. A prompt requesting the consumer to find and access multimedia content scenes depicting the content element is generated. A multimedia content scene found by the consumer is analyzed to determine whether the multimedia content scene has an association with the content element and whether the consumer has accessed the multimedia content element scene.
