  • Publication number: 20240137305
    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for enabling interoperability between asymmetric and symmetric Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) modes. An interfacing component may be configured to receive a first route advertisement from a first edge node in a Layer-2 (L2) fabric. The first route advertisement may correspond to an asymmetric format route, for instance. The interfacing component may be further configured to receive a second route advertisement from a second edge node in a L2/Layer-3 (L3) fabric. The second edge node may be configured for symmetric integrated routing and bridging (IRB). The interfacing component may be configured to re-originate the first route and the second route such that the interfacing component is included as a hop in the resultant routes between the L2 fabric and the L2/L3 fabric.

  • Patent number: 11775420
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems, media, and methods of accessing data from a test settlement file. An application programming interface (API) configured to permit alteration of one or more fields of test data in a test data file is exposed by a settlement generator. One or more fields of test data exposed by the API are altered. A test data file in a configurable format is generated based on the one or more fields of test data and alteration. The test data file is transmitted from the settlement generator to an orchestrator. A binary file, converted from the test data file, is transmitted from the settlement generator to a third-party processor. One or more pieces of data from a test settlement file are retrieved by the settlement generator, where the test settlement file includes processing results of the binary file received from the third-party processor.

  • Publication number: 20230282015
    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for generating synthetic data with simulated handwriting, such as for training or evaluating a computer vision process, for instance. Some embodiments are particularly directed to creating simulated handwriting based on input text. For example, attributes of various glyphs included in typefaces stored in a vectorized graphics format may be randomized to produce randomized glyphs. The randomized glyphs may then be used to replace glyphs in an input text to generate simulated handwriting for the input text. In some embodiments, simulated handwriting may be overlaid with a background image to produce a synthetic handwriting image. In some such embodiments, noise may be introduced into the synthetic handwriting image to generate synthetic data comprising the simulated handwriting. In one embodiment, the synthetic data may simulate a handwritten check that is used to train or evaluate an optical character recognition process.

  • Patent number: 11698895
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for managing a databank system. The databank system may have multiple databanks and each databank may have one or more repositories storing records (e.g., test data). The databank system exposes an application programming interface (API) and the databank system is managed by transmitting API calls to the exposed API. These API calls may be displayed to a user via GUI such that the user can copy the API call and paste the API call (or a modified version of the API call) into the code of other software application. Further, the databank system enables the owner of a databank or repository to share the databank or repository with other users accordingly to various access privileges. Further still, the databank system enables individual records to be reserved by a user, rendering the record invisible to other users until an expiration.
