Abstract: A system and method of generating trackable frames from a broadcast video feed are provided herein. A computing system retrieves a broadcast video feed for a sporting event. The broadcast video feed includes a plurality of video frames. The computing system generates a set of frames for classification using a principal component analysis model. The set of frames are a subset of the plurality of video frames. The computing system partitions each frame of the set of frames into a plurality of clusters. The computing system classifies each frame of the plurality of frames as trackable or untrackable. Trackable frames capture a unified view of the sporting event. The computing system compares each cluster to a predetermined threshold to determine whether each cluster comprises at least a threshold number of trackable frames. The computing system classifies each cluster that includes at least the threshold number of trackable frames as trackable.

Abstract: An energy storage device (ESD) manager may be configured to utilize and/or develop aging models configured to model age-related performance degradation predicted to be incurred by an ESD under respective operating conditions. The aging model of an ESD may be used to determine operating conditions that satisfy the performance and/or endurance requirements of an application. The ESD manager may generate a policy to manage operation of the ESD in accordance with the determined operating conditions. For example, the aging model may be used to determine discharge conditions predicted to ensure that performance degradation incurred by the ESD remains below a threshold for a specified usage period. The discharge conditions may be used to determine a discharge configuration adapted to configure the application to utilize the ESD in accordance with the determined discharge conditions.

Abstract: Approaches provide for machine-based approaches for dynamic scheduling of calendar items in digital calendar systems. The system can obtain attributes associated with calendar items, and can analyze those attributes to determine how those calendar items are to be processed, without the necessity of outside metadata or storage. Such attributes may be an activation keyword or activation attribute. The presence of the activation keyword or attribute in the calendar item metadata can indicate that the calendar item is a calendar item to be completed (e.g., a task to be completed). Attributes may also include additional attributes which affect the manner in which a calendar item is scheduled, rescheduled, or otherwise processed. Such additional attributes may include priority, deadline, time range during which the calendar item should be performed, and so forth.

Abstract: The system is configured to create a generalized document automation framework that captures relevant data from documents based upon replicating historical human actions associated with a document. The system may use machine vision and natural language processing to match a new document to a document that was already human extracted in an existing corpus. This is accomplished by comparing both visual elements and textual elements. This match can be verified by statistical approaches by comparing the match metrics across multiple documents. After the match has been found and verified, the system then uses the historical extractions from the historical document and maps the extractions to similar regions in the new document based upon again both visual and text commonalities between documents. Data is then extracted from these regions of interest in the new document, sanity checked for data integrity against historical data, and then passed downstream for processing.
