Abstract: Embodiments described herein include aspects related to previewing and capturing stroke outlines from a real-world image or a video feed. In one embodiment, a stroke outline preview image is generated by performing an edge detection process on an input image. The stroke outline preview image provides a preview indicating an example of a stroke outline image to be provided for the input image if the input image is selected. A detailed stroke outline image for the input image is generated using a detailed stroke outline process, and an alternative stroke outline image is obtained for the input image using an alternative outline process. Thereafter, the alternative stroke outline image is modified by including in the alternative stroke outline image a portion of stroke outlines from the detailed stroke outline image.

Abstract: Real time pattern preview generation and capture techniques are described. In an example, a live stream of digital images is displayed in a user interface by a computing device. A real time preview of visual patterns in the user interface is then generated and displayed based on the digital images. The visual patterns, for instance, are generated by the computing device in real time using a combination of shape extraction and pattern generation. An option is also made available to convert the real time preview into a vector image, such as a vector pattern tile.

Abstract: A mechanism that flags and detects inaccurate or bad data, and annotates the flagged data with automatically generated metadata that may then be provided to end users (e.g., resource managers, service owners, finance analysts, data scientists, executives, etc.) via an application stack. The automatic annotations comprise quality annotations that may include data freshness, correctness, and/or completeness.

Abstract: Sets of objects may be received which are desired to be stored using a nested hash map, where the nested hash map may include multiple levels, and where each set of objects in the sets of objects may correspond to a level in the nested hash map. The nested hash map may be created from a bottom level of the nested hash map to a top level of the nested hash map, which may include: creating a first hash map at a first level of the nested hash map, creating a first shared pointer which points to the first hash map, and creating a second hash map at a second level which is immediately above the first level, where the second hash map maps at least one object to the first shared pointer.

Abstract: A method includes receiving, by a first computer from a second computer, a stateless API request message comprising update value data, a consensus token, and a user identifier. The first computer determines whether or not the consensus token matches a previously stored consensus token. If the consensus token matches the previously stored consensus token, the first computer retrieves stored value data from a value data database based on the user identifier. The first computer then updates the stored value data with the update value data. The first computer generates an API response message comprising an indication of the update. The first computer transmits, to the second computer, the API response message.

Abstract: Techniques for determining a Next Best Action (NBA) are disclosed, with the determination being based on a position within an application, past actions by a user when experiencing a similar application context, and/or tasks in queue for the user to execute from current state of the application. Techniques are also disclosed for displaying an interface that includes the NBA in conjunction with a specific rationale for presenting the NBA, such as recommendations by a trusted person, based on the user's and/or other users' past behavior, and descriptions developed based on the specific NBA. Also, methods for determining a best NBA are disclosed, with the NBA being selected by applying static rules to a data set, heuristically analyzing the data set, and/or applying a machine learning model to the data set.

Abstract: A rendering system includes a cloud component and a local edge component. The cloud component receives or retrieves legacy data from various sources and preprocesses the data into a format. The local edge component receives the preprocessed data from the cloud component and performs local rendering steps necessary to place the preprocessed data into a form suitable for a game engine. The game engine utilizes the preprocessed data to render an image stream. The system is embodied in a flight simulator.

Abstract: Generating color vector previews for images is described. A color vector preview system processes image data using parallel pipelines: one for determining a color palette based on an image frame's depicted content and another for recoloring image frames using the color palette. The color vector preview system replaces each pixel of an image frame with a color determined from a surrounding spatial neighborhood of pixels. Input specifying a number of colors is received, and the specified number of colors are selected from replaced pixel values to define the color palette. After determining the color palette, the color palette pipeline obtains a most-recently captured image frame and updates the color palette accordingly. Simultaneously, the recoloring pipeline compares each of the replaced pixel values to the color palette and replaces each pixel based on the comparison. Recolored frames are then output as color vector previews for the image data in real-time.
