Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for recording a portion of content of a sports game. A request to record the portion of the content, which specifies game clock time criteria, is received by user equipment. During transmission of the content, frames of the content including a game progress graphic are analyzed to determine time values representing progress points of the sports game. In response to determining that a first time value representing a first progress point of the sports game matches the game clock time criteria of the request, the user equipment begins to record the portion of the content. In response to determining that a second time value does not match the game clock time criteria of the request, the user equipment stops the recording of the portion of the content and stores the recorded portion of the content.

Abstract: A gaze detection assembly comprises a plurality of infrared (IR) light emitters configured to emit IR light toward a user eye and an IR camera configured to sequentially capture IR images of the user eye. A controller is configured to, during a reference frame, control the plurality of IR light emitters to emit IR light toward the user eye with a reference intensity distribution. During the reference frame, an IR image is captured depicting a first glint distribution on the user eye. Based at least in part on the first glint distribution, during a subsequent frame, the plurality of IR light emitters are controlled to emit IR light toward the user eye with a subsequent intensity distribution, different than the reference intensity distribution. During the subsequent frame, a second IR image is captured depicting a second glint distribution on the user eye.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of analysing genetic data about an organism comprising receiving a plurality of input units. Each input unit comprises information about the association between genetic variants in a region of the genome and phenotypes or phenotype combinations. The method comprises carrying out iterations comprising, for each variant determining for which of the phenotypes or phenotype combinations the variant is causal based on the input units. If the variant is causal for phenotypes or phenotype combinations, a sampled effect size is determined of the variant on the phenotypes or phenotype combinations based on the input units and information about correlations between the variants in the region. For each variant, a prediction effect size is determined variant on the phenotypes or phenotype combinations based on an average across the iterations of the sampled effect sizes or of posterior effect sizes calculated using the sampled effect sizes.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of analysing genetic data about an organism comprising receiving a plurality of input units. Each input unit comprises information about the association between genetic variants in a region of the genome and a target phenotype. One or more iterations are carried out comprising, for each variant, determining whether the variant is causal for the target phenotype. If the variant is causal, a sampled effect size is determined for each input unit based on the input units and correlations between the plurality of genetic variants in the region. The sampled effect size is non-zero for all of the input units. For each variant, a prediction effect size is determined for each input unit based on an average across the iterations of the sampled effect sizes for the input unit or of posterior effect sizes for the input unit calculated using the sampled effect sizes.
