Abstract: Techniques are described herein for selecting a template for efficient generation of dashboards for the template that derive insights into website performance. A client can provide search criteria, and, in response, the client can view and select a template that matches the context in which the client would like insights into the website data. The client can interact with the selected template to populate dashboards for the selected template. An identification of a metric can be detected for a placeholder field for a dashboard, and a specification of event type(s) to be used in populating the metric can be obtained. The dashboard can be loaded in memory, and user session data can be processed to detect events in the user session data. Metrics can be generated in the dashboard using the events in the user session data. The metric in the dashboard can be displayed at the client device.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes how to capture events (e.g., changes and user interactions) of a document and combine those changes with the original tree data structure displayed to accurately and efficiently enable a replay engine to redisplay the tree data structure, changes, and user interactions which occurred at the client device. The data collected from a client-side capture engine can be combined with a minimal amount of contextual information to a replay engine so as to accurately and efficiently replay a session of a plurality of documents.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a request from a user device accessing a webpage, the request including a webpage uniform resource locator (URL) and a user device identifier.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for determining a volume of remaining liquid in a container are disclosed. A container profile can first be developed using image analysis to determine a maximum liquid level in the container. The profile can then be broken into divisions, each corresponding to an equal volume. When real-world measurements of a liquid level in a real-world container are made, these can be translated to one of the divisions, which can be summed with all underlying divisions to estimate a volume of remaining liquid in the real-world container.

It is intended that each lens section has a first and a second line of curvature that, at least in substantial part, are positioned transversely to one another, and along which the individual sections of lens extend; furthermore, that the lines of curvature of one lens section are inclined towards the lines of curvature of the other lens section in terms of their positioning.

Abstract: Techniques can capture, store, and regenerate a view of content in applications (e.g., native applications) on devices (e.g., a mobile device). A capture management system can produce compact data storage of views of content in an application on a device and the efficient search thereof of views of content provided in the application. The views of content can be translated into a transportable data layer, such as HTML, and captured using delta encoding to identify changes and modifications in content accessed in any application at a device. A capture management system can accurately and efficiently capture events displayed for an application at a device and send the events to a server-side system, which can combine the events to reassemble the events. A user interface and user interaction events on an application at a mobile device can be reassembled for the purpose of playback and analysis of interactions with the application.
