  • Patent number: 12561520
    Abstract: Pre-quality assurance (QA) quality estimation (PQE) includes uploading an audit documentation into a memory workspace of an audit data processing system, parsing the audit documentation to identify one or more control statements and one or more textual comments, characterizing the audit documentation according to a set of individual PQE Checks processing a formatting of the audit documentation and a facial appearance of the control statements and textual comments, generating a numeric score from the characterization and assigning the audit documentation for a QA process of specific timeframe and specific rigor in correspondence of the generated score.

  • Patent number: 12495132
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to devices, systems, and methods for separately processing an image stream to generate a first set of images for display by a set of displays and a second set of images for storage or transfer as part of a media capture event. Specifically, a first set of images from an image stream may be used to generate a first set of transformed images, and these transformed images may be displayed on a set of displays. A second set of images may be selected from the image stream in response to a capture request associated with a media capture event, and the second set of images may be used to generate a second set of transformed images. A set of output images may be generated from the second set of transformed images, and the set of output images may be stored or transmitted for later viewing.

  • Patent number: 12425438
    Abstract: Threat activity statistical analysis driven adaptive control specification includes retrieving a data structure from over a computer communications network into memory of a computing device and parsing the data structure in the memory to extract a listing of different threat activities. Threat activity statistical analysis driven adaptive control specification also includes computing in the memory a statistical analysis of the different threat activities. Finally, threat activity statistical analysis driven adaptive control specification includes responding to the statistical analysis surpassing a threshold for an identified one of the different threat activities by determining a corresponding threat incorporating the identified one of the different threat activities in an associated kill chain, retrieving a control specification addressing the corresponding threat, and modifying the control specification to address changes in the corresponding threat.

  • Patent number: 12223057
    Abstract: Risk modeling for cyberspace control deficiencies includes characterizing a subject organization and loading a baseline set of controls, each control mapping to one or more threats to the subject organization. For each of the threats, a baseline risk value is computed from a hypothetical implementation of the baseline set of controls. Concurrently, risk assessment data is uploaded for the subject organization and an implemented set of controls for the organization extracted therefrom. For each of the threats, one or more of the implemented set of controls are mapped thereto and a risk value computed. Thereafter, the baseline risk value compared to the computed risk value producing a risk deficit value. On condition that the risk deficit value exceeds a threshold value, a flag is written in association with the risk assessment data indicating a necessity to modify the implemented set of controls.

  • Publication number: 20240355081
    Abstract: Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including a portal for viewing a stereo item (e.g., a photo or video) positioned a distance behind the portal. One or more visual effects are provided based on texture of one or more portions of the stereo item, e.g., texture at cutoff or visible edges of the stereo item. The effects change the appearance of the stereo item or the portal itself, e.g., improving visual comfort issues by minimizing window violations or otherwise enhancing the viewing experience. Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including an immersive view of a stereo item without using portal. Such a visual effect may be provided to partially obscure the surrounding 3D environment.

  • Publication number: 20160140748
    Abstract: An image such as a light-field image may be displayed dynamically through the use of an automatically generated animation. The image may be received in a data store. One or more attributes of the image may be automatically evaluated. Based on the one or more attributes, a first animation parameter may be selected. An animation of the image may be automatically generated such that the animation possesses the first animation parameter. On a display device, the animation may be displayed. The one or more attributes may optionally include coloration of the image, presence of a computer-recognizable feature in the image, presence of a computer-recognizable human face in the image, a gaze direction of a person appearing in the image, and/or a depth, relative to the camera, of an object appearing in the image.
