Abstract: This disclosure describes systems and methods that facilitate the generation of recommendations by traversing a graph. Walks that traverse the graph may be initiated from a plurality of different nodes in the node graph. In order to give greater or lesser weight to particular nodes, the walks may have different lengths depending on the nodes from which they are initiated, or an unequal amount of walks may be distributed between nodes from which walks are initiated. A plurality of walks through a node graph may be tracked, and visit counts or scores for nodes in the node graph may be determined. For example, scores may be increased for nodes that are visited by a walk initiated from a first node and a second walk initiated from a second node, or scores may be decreased for nodes that are not visited by a first walk initiated from a first node and a second walk initiated from a second node. Content corresponding to nodes may be recommended based on the scores or visit counts.

Abstract: A laser-scanning method may include obtaining scan data captured by a laser scanner in which the laser scanner includes a first private key that uniquely corresponds to the laser scanner. The laser-scanning method may include obtaining a first digital signature corresponding to the obtained scan data that is generated based on the scan data and the first private key. The laser-scanning method may include validating the first digital signature using a first public key that corresponds to the first private key and generating a report that summarizes results of the validating. The laser-scanning method may include transforming and aggregating, by a scan data aggregator, the scan data as aggregated scan data and generating a second digital signature corresponding to the aggregated scan data. The second digital signature may be generated by signing hashes corresponding to the aggregated scan data using a second private key corresponding to the scan data aggregator.

Abstract: A system and method predicts performance of a circuit design by receiving circuit design training data and circuit design test data. The circuit design training data includes training nodes and training paths. The training paths connect the training nodes including circuit components. The circuit design test data includes a first test node and a second test node. Further, testing information is determined for the circuit components of each training path from the circuit design training data. A statistical representation of the circuit design test data is determined based on the testing information and the circuit design test data, and first test information for a test path connecting the first test node with the second test node is determined based on the statistical representation.

A method of model-based scan line encoding includes defining a geometry model for describing a scan line of a scan, the scan line including multiple scan points. The method further includes calculating a trajectory model representing an approximate pattern of deviation of the multiple scan points relative to the geometry model. The method further includes calculating multiple residuals, each of the residuals associated with a difference between the deviation of the scan points and the trajectory model. The method may further include compressing the residuals.
