Abstract: A system for validating a dataflow graph is disclosed. The system receives an input dataflow graph and compares the input dataflow graph to each of a plurality of pre-learned dataflow graphs. Each of the pre-learned dataflow graphs is associated with an occurrence rate. Then, the system identifies a pre-learned dataflow graph that matches the input dataflow graph and identifies an occurrence rate associated with the pre-learned dataflow graph. The system compares the occurrence rate with a pre-defined threshold for validating the input dataflow graph. If the occurrence rate exceeds the pre-defined threshold, the system determines that the input dataflow graph is a valid dataflow graph.

Abstract: Techniques for labeling data files that enable a file management label to persist on a data file. Variations disclosed herein enable a file management label to be embedded within a data file so that the file management label propagates with the data file when the data file is copied and/or moved between systems and/or workloads. In some embodiments, an application may be configured to write the file management label directly into a stream of the data file. For example, an application client that is run locally on a client device may open the data file by accessing its corresponding stream. While the data file is open within the application client such that a user may edit content of the data file, the application client may be caused to associate the file management label with the data file. Ultimately, the application client may write this association directly into the stream.

The ink and the receiving substrate or the ink and the object are thermally joined, thereby forming a microassembly of heterogeneous materials. The ink may comprise a first material and the receiving substrate or the object may comprise a second material different from the first material.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for use in image-guided surgical procedures, in which intraoperatively acquired surface data is employed to verify the correspondence between intraoperatively selected fiducial points and volumetric fiducial points, where the volumetric fiducial points are selected based on volumetric image data. Segmented surface data obtained from the volumetric image data is registered to the intraoperative surface data using the intraoperative and volumetric fiducial points for initial surface alignment, and this process is repeated for other permutations of the correspondence between the intraoperatively fiducial points and the volumetric fiducial points. Quality measures may be determined that relate to the registration quality for each fiducial correspondence permutation, where the quality measures may be employed to assess of the likelihood that the initially prescribed fiducial correspondence is correct.
