Abstract: An online system receives information from an entity identifying a set of users of the online system and groups users included in the set into clusters based on their similarities using a clustering model or algorithm (e.g., k-means clustering) and based on one or more parameters specified by the entity. The online system generates expanded clusters that include additional users in one or more clusters based on similarities between the additional users and users in various clusters. If an additional user is included in multiple expanded clusters, the online assigns the additional user exclusively to an expanded cluster that best fits the user.

Abstract: This application is directed to packaging a camera product. A base is attached to a holding element that is configured to physically hold a camera and includes a holding element fastener structure. The holding element fastener structure is configured to mate with a base fastener structure associated with the base, providing both a first degree of freedom of motion and a second degree of freedom of motion for the holding element relative to the base. The holding element is rotated in a first direction via the first degree of freedom until the holding element reaches a first nominal position. The holding element is rotated in a second direction via the second degree of freedom until the holding element reaches a second nominal position. The holding element is configured to lie substantially in parallel with a planar surface of the base when it is rotated along the first and second directions.

Abstract: This application discloses a stand assembly that includes a receiving element for physically receiving a module, and a base assembly for supporting the receiving element. The receiving element further includes a module holding structure, an extended portion, and a first fastener structure coupled to an end of the extended portion. The base assembly includes a base, and a second fastener structure coupled to the base at a joint and configured to mate with the first fastener structure. The first fastener structure and the joint are configured to respectively provide a first degree of freedom of motion and a second degree of freedom of motion of the receiving element with respect to the base. The movement of the receiving element at the first degree of freedom is unlimited in a first direction of travel associated with the first degree of freedom.

Abstract: This application discloses a camera including a holding element and a base assembly. The holding element further includes a camera portion for holding a camera sensor, an extended portion that extends from the camera portion, and a fastener structure coupled to an end of the extended portion. The base assembly further includes a base shaped to rest against a supporting surface, and a joint structure configured to mate with the fastener structure. The fastener structure and the joint structure are configured to provide a first degree of freedom of motion and a second degree of freedom of motion of the holding element with respect to the base. The movement of the receiving element at the first degree of freedom is unlimited in a first direction of travel, and the movement of the receiving element at the second degree of freedom is limited in a second direction of travel.

Abstract: This application discloses a camera including a holding element and a base assembly. The holding element further includes a camera portion for holding a camera sensor, an extended portion that extends from the camera portion, and a fastener structure coupled to an end of the extended portion located opposite another end of the extended portion where the camera module is located. The base assembly further includes a base shaped to rest against a supporting surface, a joint structure configured to mate with the fastener structure, and a magnet configured to magnetically couple the camera to the supporting surface. In some implementations, the camera further includes a mounting structure that is configured to be attached and fixed onto the supporting surface. The camera is mounted onto the supporting surface when the base of the base assembly magnetically adheres onto the mounting structure.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and articles of manufacture provide for interface modifications such as with respect to new features and functionality of bingo-style games, particularly with respect to bingo card sorting and presentation via mobile device platforms.

Abstract: In at least some embodiments, when a participant in an online meeting begins to share a resource, such as their display screen, a new application window is automatically opened on a meeting room device and content associated with the participant's computing device is shared within the new application window. The participant can be a person in close proximity to the meeting room device. Alternately or additionally, the participant can be a remote participant.

Abstract: Meeting software on a meeting room device enables meeting room resources to be automatically shared. A meeting is initiated and, during the meeting, and associated meeting room device monitors for events pertaining to an interaction with one or more meeting resources. Responsive to detecting an event, the meeting room device automatically enables associated meeting room resources to be automatically shared among meeting participants.

Abstract: Meeting software on a meeting room device enables a meeting summary to be generated and sent to individuals associated with a meeting. The meeting summary may be triggered by a user, such as a meeting administrator. Alternately or additionally, the meeting summary may be automatically triggered and sent to the individuals associated with the meeting. The meeting summary can include a timeline of events that occurred throughout the meeting. In addition, the meeting summary can include content from the meeting and/or mechanisms to enable content from the meeting to be accessed by the recipients of the meeting summary.

Abstract: A process for making a cyclic compounds such as cyclic acetal or cyclic ketones by feeding aldehyde or ketone compounds and polyhydroxyl compounds to a reaction zone at a molar ratio of polyhydroxyl compounds to aldehyde or ketone compounds of at least 3:1, reacting these compounds in the presence of a solid acid such as an acidic ion exchange resin, to generate a liquid reaction mixture without separating water from the reaction mixture as it is being formed in the reaction mixture, withdrawing the liquid reaction mixture from the reaction zone as a liquid product stream, and feeding the liquid reaction product stream to a distillation column to separate cyclic acetal compounds from unreacted polyhydroxyl compounds, and optionally recycling back the unreacted polyhydroxyl compounds to the reaction zone. The process produces cyclic acetal compounds in yields of at least 90% with long catalyst life. The process is also suitable to make cyclic ketals from ketone compounds.
