  • Patent number: 11526553
    Abstract: Described are systems and methods for automatically generating, by a computing device, a regular expression that matches a list of input strings. A method includes identifying a set of baseline regular expression classes that match a portion of an input string of the list of input strings. The method further generates a current regular expression as a sequence of baseline regular expression classes from the set of baseline regular expression classes based on matching baseline regular expression classes to characters of a first input string of the list of input strings. The method further determines whether the current regular expression matches all input strings of the list of input strings, and if it does not, the method regenerates a portion of the current regular expression that occurs after an earliest character, in order, of one of the one or more input strings, that does not match the current regular expression.

  • Patent number: 11488349
    Abstract: In some examples, an apparatus obtains source layer pixels, such as those of a content image and first destination layer pixels, such as those of a destination image. The first destination layer pixels have associated alpha values. The apparatus obtains information that indicates a first blending color format for the alpha values. The first blending color format is different from a first destination layer color format for the first destination layer pixels and an output color format for a display. The apparatus converts the source and/or first destination layer pixels to the first blending color format. The apparatus generates first alpha blended pixels based on alpha blending the source layer pixels with the first destination layer pixels using the associated alpha values. The apparatus provides, for display on the display, the first alpha blended pixels.
