Abstract: Embodiments of the subject matter described herein relate to generating a decision tree based on data pre-statistics. A plurality of data samples for a node of the decision tree are obtained, and the plurality of data samples have corresponding feature values with respect to a first feature. A target range is determined from a plurality of predefined numerical ranges so that the number of feature values falling into the target range is greater than a predetermined threshold number. Then, the remaining of the feature values other than the feature values falling into the target range are assigned to the respective numerical ranges, and the feature values falling into all the numerical ranges are counted based on the assignment of the remaining of the feature values, for allocation of the plurality of data samples to child nodes of the node. Accordingly, the data processing efficiency is substantially improved.

Abstract: A portable device and accompanying software provides users with a digital audio workstation with integrated tools take in raw audio data from physical inputs and map the raw data to various virtual outputs. Raw audio data for recording (recording data) is cast in real-time to a remote server. Monitoring data is simultaneously sent to collaborating devices via P2P protocols. The bitrate of the data for P2P transmissions can be adjusted to allow remote multiple users recording simultaneously to hear monitoring data in synchronicity, regardless of the speed of their respective internet connections. Face-to-face collaboration may be facilitated through the streaming of video data as the monitoring data. The low-latency of the P2P monitoring transmissions frees up bandwidth for the real-time streaming of the recording data. Audio recordings are uploaded to a central server, where they may be available to authorized collaborators for editing.

Associations between environment variables and ineligible intents, referred to as culling rules, are used.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of machine-learning is described that includes obtaining a dataset of virtual scenes. The dataset of virtual scenes belongs to a first domain. The method further includes obtaining a test dataset of real scenes. The test dataset belongs to a second domain. The method further includes determining a third domain. The third domain is closer to the second domain than the first domain in terms of data distributions. The method further includes learning a domain-adaptive neural network based on the third domain. The domain-adaptive neural network is a neural network configured for inference of spatially reconfigurable objects in a real scene. Such a method constitutes an improved method of machine learning with a dataset of scenes including spatially reconfigurable objects.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to machine learning techniques for continuous implementation and training of a machine learning system for identifying the natural language meaning of visual content. A computer vision model or other suitable machine learning model can predict whether a given descriptor is associated with the visual content. A set of such models can be used to determine whether particular ones of a set of descriptors are associated with the visual content, with the determined descriptors representing a meaning of the visual content. This meaning can be refined based on a multi-armed bandit tracking and analyzing interactions between the visual content and users associated with certain personas related to the determined descriptors.

Abstract: Techniques are described that enable a user to share videos having dynamic overlays on a social networking system. In some examples, a server computing device may receive, at a first time from a first client device, a first video. For instance, the server computing device may begin receiving the first video after the first client device has concluded capturing the first video, but has not yet completed customizing the first video. The server computing device may receive, at a second time after the first time and from the first client device, a dynamic overlay including customizations to be applied to the first video. The dynamic overlay may be transmitted separately from the first video. In examples, the server computing device generates a second video by applying the dynamic overlay to the first video. The server computing device then provides the second video to a second client device.
