Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for providing streamlined access to media assets of interest to a user. The method includes determining that a supplemental viewing device, through which a user views a field of view, is directed at a first field of view. The method further involves detecting that the supplemental viewing device is now directed at a second field of view, and determining that a media consumption device is within the second field of view. A first media asset of interest to the user that is available for consumption via the media consumption device is identified, and the supplemental viewing device generates a visual indication in the second field of view. The visual indication indicates that the first media asset is available for consumption via the media consumption device, and the visual indication tracks a location of the media consumption device in the second field of view.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described to address shortcomings in conventional systems by correcting an erroneous term in on-screen caption text for a media asset. In some aspects, the systems and methods identify the erroneous term in a text segment of the on-screen caption text, and identify one or more video frames of the media asset corresponding to the text segment. The systems and methods further identify a contextual term related to the erroneous term from the one or more video frames. By accessing a knowledge graph, the systems and methods identify a candidate correction based on the contextual term and a portion of the text segment. Lastly, the systems and methods replaces the erroneous term with the candidate correction.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided herein for recommending a media asset based on a geographic location at which that media asset was frequently consumed. For example, the system may monitor a location, such as New York City or Times Square, to determine popular media assets watched there, such as “The Avengers,” and when another user visits New York City, the system may then notify the user that the movie, such as “The Avengers,” is associated with New York City. The system stores the geographic locations associated with the media asset in the database based on the consumption of the media asset so that other users may be notified which media assets are associated with each geographic location.

Abstract: The present invention provides system and method for identifying utilization of low telecom services in predefined area. System receives data pertaining to set of one or more telecom sites operating in predefined area from user. Further, system divides each of telecom sites into one or more spatial grids, where telecom sites includes one or more macro sites and at least one sector. System generates at least one spatially tagged measurement sample by call log server, which includes start and end time of each of calls and data sessions of subscribers associated with macro sites. Finally, system marks one or more spatial grids as low utilized based on pre-determined condition, and clusters neighbouring low utilized spatial grids in predefined area to generate large clusters of low utilized grids representing of low telecom utilization.

The method further includes determining an index PPE rate based on a pandemic risk index, the first PPE rate for the type of PPE, the second PPE rate for the type of PPE, and the first burn rate.

Abstract: A method and system for providing zoonotic spill-over risk analytics and/or prediction. The method includes obtaining data from at least one data source for at least one first locality of interest, removing source identification information from the data; and obtaining data on infection or disease incidence for at least one locality of interest. The method further includes training a model to identify an impact on the infection or disease incidence by determining which of the ecological, environmental, human migration, animal and insect migration, land use change, and climate change related factors (e.g., factors) impact the infection or disease incidence for the at least one locality of interest, and based on the factors having a highest impact on the infection or disease incidence, determine a zoonotic spill-over risk index for predicting a spill-over event. The model may be implemented with a second set of data to determine the zoonotic spill-over risk index for at least second locality of interest.

Abstract: In some aspects, control circuitry receives and stores a user-specified time duration to associate with a skip-forward command. When the user later issues a skip-forward command to advance playback of a media asset to a desired location, the control circuitry retrieves the stored time duration, and determines an expected overshoot value associated with the skip-forward command. The control circuitry then compensates for the expected overshoot by calculating a new location in the media asset based on both the retrieved time duration and expected overshoot value. Upon advancing to the new location, the media asset is played back in a fast-forward mode, e.g., at a speed higher than normal speed.

Abstract: In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and a computer system are provided. The computer system includes a BMC. The BMC determines a booting configuration based on setting of the BMC. The BMC determines, from a firmware image and according to the booting configuration, a group of components, of an OS of the BMC, to be loaded into a memory of the BMC. The BMC determines, from the firmware image, storage locations of the group of components. The BMC obtains a first set of components of the group from one or more network locations according to the storage locations.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein such that, a media guidance application presents, in an interactive program guide, a virtual content source for binge watching a program series. The media guidance application may determine a program series a user is currently watching. The media guidance application may receive a user selection of a media asset. The media guidance application may determine a length of time between a current time and a start time of the media asset. The media guidance application may determine the next episodes of the program series the user can watch before the start time of the media asset and present them using a virtual content source.

Abstract: Patients being treated successfully with a drug of abuse and at low risk for abusing the drug nevertheless may be at high risk of being misidentified as a high risk of abuse. These patients may need and benefit from treatment with the drug but restricted or cut off from the treatment altogether due to the misidentification and then abandoned. Evaluating a patient's risk of drug treatment change due to a category misidentification may include developing a model for identifying such abandoned patients, applying the model to data of a patient, and determining a patient risk score for the patient based on a result of applying the model.

A first connector is fixed to the first frame rail of the mid-section and to the first frame rail of the end-section. A second connector is fixed to the second frame rail of the mid-section and to the second frame rail of the end-section.

Abstract: A system and method for hierarchical computation of KPI(s). The method encompasses receiving for at least one time slice, counter(s) associated with each node from one or more nodes. The method further encompasses defining at each time slice, metrics for said each node based on associated counter(s). The method thereafter comprises computing a locally aggregated value and a time aggregated value of the metrics. The method further encompasses mapping, the time aggregated value of each metric to a control center hierarchy (CCH). Further the method calculates a hierarchically aggregated value for each metric present in a target list of metrics associated with KPI expression(s) corresponding to said CCH, based on an aggregation of all time aggregated values of said each metric. The method thereafter encompasses computing, by a KPI scheduler unit, the KPI(s) for said CCH based at least on said hierarchically aggregated value and said KPI expression(s).
