Abstract: A board portal system provides the ability to manage multiple boards, where each of the boards may be a separate legal entity. The board portal may provide the ability to establish links between the multiple boards and create parent-child relationships with subsidiary boards. With the board portal, users can create content and make it viewable and accessible across multiple boards that related through a parent-child relationship. At the same time, the board portal maintains a requisite level of separation between the related boards in the portal using encryption and/or other separation techniques. As a result, the board portal facilitates flexible workflow patterns and communication processes based on the proper hierarchical structure that exists between the parent organization and its subsidiaries.

Abstract: A method and system for identifying the beginning and ending of songs via a machine learning analysis. A machine learning model analyzes streaming audio (such as a radio broadcast) in overlapping, 3-second samples. Each sample is labeled into groups such as “song,” “talk,” “commercial” and “transition.” Based on the location of the transition samples, an exact second a given song begins and ends in the audio stream is derivable. The model further identifies when two songs shift between one another.
