  • Patent number: 11355548
    Abstract: A first component with a first sidewall and a second component with a second sidewall may be mounted onto an expandable film such that an original distance X is the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall. The expandable film may be expanded such that an expanded distance Y is the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall and expanded distance Y is greater than original distance X. A first sidewall material may be applied within at least a part of a space between the first sidewall and the second sidewall. The expandable film may be expanded such that a contracted distance Z is the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall, and contracted distance Z is less than expanded distance Y.

  • Patent number: 11356669
    Abstract: A moving picture coding apparatus includes an intra-inter prediction unit which calculates a second motion vector by performing a scaling process on a first motion vector of a temporally neighboring corresponding block, when selectively adding, to a list, a motion vector of each of one or more corresponding blocks each of which is either a block included in a current picture to be coded and spatially neighboring a current block to be coded or a block included in a picture other than the current picture and temporally neighboring the current block, determines whether the second motion vector has a magnitude that is within a predetermined magnitude or not within the predetermined magnitude, and adds the second motion vector to the list when the intra-inter prediction unit determines that the second motion vector has a magnitude that is within the predetermined magnitude range.

  • Patent number: 11354131
    Abstract: Techniques for monitoring operating statuses of an application and its dependencies are provided. A monitoring application may collect and report the operating status of the monitored application and each dependency. Through use of existing monitoring interfaces, the monitoring application can collect operating status without requiring modification of the underlying monitored application or dependencies. The monitoring application may determine a problem service that is a root cause of an unhealthy state of the monitored application. Dependency analyzer and discovery crawler techniques may automatically configure and update the monitoring application. Machine learning techniques may be used to determine patterns of performance based on system state information associated with performance events and provide health reports relative to a baseline status of the monitored application. Also provided are techniques for testing a response of the monitored application through modifications to API calls.

  • Patent number: 11354372
    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a user with content relevant to a location of interest to the user, when the user is determined to be at or near the location, are presented. The user's interest in the location may be determined based on queries about the location received from the user prior to the user arriving at the location. The queries received from the user about the location are used to build a location recommendation model, which generates personalized content relevant to the location and to one or more interest verticals identified for the user. The location recommendation model is built using a location recommendation engine that collects data about the user, the queried location, one or more associations between the user, the queried location, and/or one or more other users, as well as various other information related to the user's interests and the queried location.

  • Patent number: 11354342
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for determining an information gain score for one or more documents of interest to the user and present information from the documents based on the information gain score. An information gain score for a given document is indicative of additional information that is included in the document beyond information contained in documents that were previously viewed by the user. In some implementations, the information gain score may be determined for one or more documents by applying data from the documents across a machine learning model to generate an information gain score. Based on the information gain scores of a set of documents, the documents can be provided to the user in a manner that reflects the likely information gain that can be attained by the user if the user were to view the documents.

  • Patent number: 11354113
    Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to deploy upgrade events in a controlled manner to different resource units that provide a service utilizing predefined rollout policies. To deploy an upgrade event, a system determines a risk factor for the upgrade event and presents predefined rollout policies to a feature group for selection based on the risk factor. Upon selection of a rollout policy, the system can deploy the upgrade event according to parameters defined by the selected rollout policy. The system is further configured to analyze telemetry data received from the resource units to determine an updated risk factor and determine whether the updated risk factor crosses a risk factor threshold. If the updated risk factor crosses the threshold, the system can identify another rollout policy to replace the selected policy. In addition, the system can receive an override workflow request to expedite upgrade event deployment.
