Abstract: Approaches in accordance with various embodiments can reduce scheduling delays due to concurrent processing requests, as may involve VSyncs in multi-streaming systems. The software synchronization signals can be staggered relative to each other by offsetting an initial synchronization signal. These software synchronization signals can be readjusted over time such that each synchronization signal maintains the same relative offset, as may be with respect to other applications or containers.

Abstract: Systems and methods for recommending content to an online service subscriber are presented. For each subscriber, content items that were the subject of the subscriber's prior interactions are projected, via associated embedding vectors, into a content item embedding space. The content items, via their projections into the content item embedding space, are clustered to form a plurality of interest clusters for the subscriber. A representative embedding vector is determined for each interest cluster, and a plurality of these embedding vectors are stored as the representative embedding vectors for the subscriber. The online service, in response to a request for recommended content for a subscriber, selects a first representative embedding vector associated with the subscriber and identifies a new content item from a corpus of content items according to a similarity measure between the first representative embedding vector and an embedding vector associated with the new content item.

Abstract: A system and method for flood hazard estimation inputs a satellite elevation map and applies a machine learning model to output a geographic map representing flood hazard areas. The machine learning model is trained using a generative adversarial network (GAN) to produce an output of a deterministic hazard mapping algorithm. A GAN objective applies a loss function, reweighted to increase the importance of high hazard areas. The method retrieves a DEM topography file representing elevation data of an identified terrain, and applies a sink-filling algorithm to detect and fill sinks in the DEM topography. The algorithm subtracts the DEM elevation data to generate a filled topography, and identifies flattest regions of the filled topography. The algorithm then generates a flood hazard map by merging the filled topography and the DEM elevation data, using a weighting function that balances the detected sinks and the flattest regions of the filled topography.
