  • Publication number: 20240086385
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for efficient media indexing. An example method disclosed herein includes means for initiating a list of hash seeds, the list of hash seeds including at least a first hash seed value and a second hash seed value among other hash seed values, means for generating to generate a first bucket distribution based on the first hash seed value and a first hash function and generate a second bucket distribution based on the second hash seed value used in combination with the first hash seed value, means for determining to determine a first entropy value of the first bucket distribution, wherein data associated with the first bucket distribution is stored in a first hash table and determine a second entropy value of the second bucket distribution.

  • Publication number: 20120053548
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a disposable absorbent article comprising a chassis defining a front waist region, a rear waist region, and a crotch region disposed between the front waist region and rear waist region. The article includes front and back ear panels that are joined at opposing side seams. The side seam can include an initiation region, which can be bonded or unbonded, and a propagation region. The initiation region and the propagation region have a resistance to user-applied opening forces. The resistance at the initiation region is less than that of the propagation region. The seam can further include additional regions. The article can include a tab member that can be engaged by the user to facilitate opening of the seam.
