  • Patent number: 11176649
    Abstract: A system and method for identifying presence of digital ghosting artifacts in videos is disclosed. The method comprises estimating a blending parameter (?) for a current image using a previous image and a next image of a digital video stream. Successively, a blended image (B) is created by mixing contents of the previous image and the next image based on the estimated blending parameter (?). Thereafter, a first similarity is computed between the blended image (B) and a de-interlaced image (C), based on a Normalized Cross Correlation (NCC) between multiple blocks of the blended image (B) and the de-interlaced image (C). Successively, a second similarity is computed between the blended image (B) and the de-interlaced image (C), based on values of standard deviation of an absolute difference frame determined between the blended image (B) and the de-interlaced image (C).

  • Patent number: 11169864
    Abstract: The invention provides systems, methods and computer program products for executing remote application iteration(s) of client application software on a remote server platform, and for enabling each remote application iteration of a client application software to have access to a corresponding instance of an application software environment that contains or otherwise has access to data object(s) necessary for execution of the remote application iteration. The invention additionally enables execution of a remote application iteration of a client software application at a remote server platform, through need-based or dynamic retrieval of data objects from an on-premise device for provisioning (on the remote platform server) an instance of the client software application environment required for execution of the remote application iteration of the client software application.

  • Patent number: 11159629
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining parameters of devices that may have influenced generated content, and appending values of these parameters to the generated content for the benefit of other users. Devices near the location at which the content was generated may be selected, and parameters of these devices may be retrieved. These device parameters are often relevant to the generated content. Accordingly, the retrieved parameter values may be appended to the generated content for transmission along with the content. In this manner, other users may view both the content and the parameters of nearby devices that may have influenced the setting of the content, assisting users in, for example, recreating the content or its subject matter for themselves.

  • Publication number: 20210308321
    Abstract: A scaffold has a spiral configuration and gradient porosity designed to facilitate the healing of bone injuries. To make the scaffold, a sheet of polymeric material or the like is rolled into a spiral shape. In one embodiment, the resulting scaffold has an outer porous layer with high porosity, and a comparatively less porous inner layer in order to facilitate vascularization and promote recovery. The pores can be filled with a degradable polymer and/or growth factors, bioactive molecules, bactericidal drugs and/or other compositions to further promote recovery.

  • Patent number: 11113436
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for simultaneous simulation of one-dimensional flow and multi-dimensional flow in a fluid flow network. Processes define meshes of nodes for both one-dimensional and multi-dimensional flow components in a fluid flow network. Another process defines a relational data structure for each adjacent node pair in each multi-dimensional flow component. A flow analysis code is executed to model fluid flow throughout the fluid flow network using the one-dimensional and multi-dimensional meshes of nodes, and each relational data structure.
