Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a multi-model object segmentation system that provides a multi-model object segmentation framework for automatically segmenting objects in digital images. In one or more implementations, the multi-model object segmentation system utilizes different types of object segmentation models to determine a comprehensive set of object masks for a digital image. In various implementations, the multi-model object segmentation system further improves and refines object masks in the set of object masks utilizing specialized object segmentation models, which results in more improved accuracy and precision with respect to object selection within the digital image. Further, in some implementations, the multi-model object segmentation system generates object masks for portions of a digital image otherwise not captured by various object segmentation models.

Some examples further enable determining a reliability level of the source entity based on at least one of: security events, sightings of the observable, a first set of user feedback information that is submitted for the security indicator by users of the security information sharing platform, or a second set of user feedback information that is collected from external resources that are external to the security information sharing platform.

Abstract: A simulation may be used to determine a difference between progress of a manually-driven vehicle and progress of a simulated autonomous vehicle. The method includes retrieving log data collected for the manually-driven vehicle driving along a route, generating a plurality of path segments for a portion of the route. The plurality of path segments corresponds to points in a lane that the manually-driven vehicle traveled through on the portion of the route. The method also includes running, using a software of the autonomous vehicle, a simulation of the autonomous vehicle driving along the plurality of path segments, extracting metrics from the log data and the simulation, and determining the difference between a first progress of the manually-driven vehicle and a second progress of the simulated autonomous vehicle based on the metrics.

Abstract: The instant disclosure is directed to methods of improving bone-soft tissue healing using biocompatible electrospun polymer fibers. In one embodiment, a method may include locating a portion of a subject's bone, affixing a tendon or ligament to the bone using a hardware fixture, and placing a patch comprising at least one electrospun polymer fiber in physical communication with both the bone and the tendon or ligament. In some embodiments, the bone may be a humerus, and the tendon or ligament may be a supraspinatus tendon. In certain embodiments, the patch may comprise substantially parallel electrospun polymer fibers, and may be placed such that the fibers are also substantially parallel with the long axis of the tendon or ligament.

Abstract: In an exemplary method, a dielectric layer is deposited on a substrate. A masking layer is formed over a first region and a second region of the dielectric layer. The masking layer is made of an oxide of lanthanum. The masking layer is removed from the second region of the dielectric layer. A work function layer is formed directly on only the second region of the dielectric layer. The work function layer is made of titanium nitride that is formed by using a combination of titanium tetrachloride and ammonia (TiCl4/NH3).

The method includes displaying, on a user terminal display device, a first user interface (UI) configured to display application data in organized rows and columns, receiving, by a data management system, updates and/or edits to the application data, and calculating, by the data management system, the updated and/or edited application data. The method further includes analyzing, by the data management system, the updates and/or edits to determine one or more of associated errors, warnings, and exceptions, and displaying, within the first UI, a graphical representation for each of the errors, warnings, and exceptions in the row and/or column of the application data where the error, warning, or exception has occurred.
