  • Publication number: 20240054153
    Abstract: A multimedia query system is described that includes a multimedia capture system configured to capture raw multimedia data comprising at least one of raw video data or raw audio data, a metadata engine configured to extract one or more anchor points of metadata from the raw multimedia data and to store the one or more anchor points of metadata, wherein the anchor points of metadata includes references to respective portions of the raw multimedia data. The multimedia query system further includes a storage engine configured to store the raw multimedia data, a recall engine configured to receive a query and to apply the query to the one or more anchor points of metadata to identify one or more raw multimedia data candidates from the portions of the raw multimedia data, and a query engine configured to generate a response to the query based on the one or more raw multimedia data candidates.

  • Publication number: 20200342969
    Abstract: A method includes receiving medical data records and computing a compliance score from an ideal treatment plan and an actual treatment, the actual treatment stored in medical data records. The method also includes determining whether the compliance score is greater than a compliance threshold and, in response to a determination that the compliance score is greater than the compliance threshold, storing a pass flag with a data record of the actual treatment. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the compliance score is less than the compliance threshold storing a fail flag with the data record of the actual treatment and controlling a graphical user display to indicate the data record includes the fail flag.

  • Patent number: 10108656
    Abstract: Based on a probability of summary metadata associated with an entity of a media hosting service being inaccurate, a determination is made as to whether to verify the accuracy of the summary metadata. In response to determining to verify the accuracy of the summary metadata, a determination is made as to whether the summary metadata is inaccurate with respect to master metadata associated with the entity of the media hosting service. The summary metadata is updated with a correct value determined from the master metadata, in response to determining the summary metadata is inaccurate.

  • Patent number: 8276190
    Abstract: A user using a browser having stored authentication information for a web service in a first domain is authenticated to a web service in a second domain. The browser is provided with computer program instructions causing the browser to transparently provide the stored authentication information to the service in the first domain, receive cross-domain authentication credentials from the service in the first domain, and provide the cross-domain authentication credentials to the service in the second domain. The service in the second domain validates the cross-domain authentication credentials. If the credentials validate, the service in the second domain transparently provides the user with authenticated access.
