  • Publication number: 20240112703
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for seamless insertion of modified media content. In one embodiment, a modified portion of video content is received. The modified portion has a start cue point and an end cue point that are set relative to a modification to the video content to indicate respectively when the modification approximately begins and ends compared to the video content. A video coding associated with the video content is identified. The start cue point and/or the end cue point are dynamically adjusted to align the modified portion with the video content based at least in part on the video coding.

  • Publication number: 20240111896
    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, a system, and a computer program product for processing messages. A computer system parses a message to identify key value pairs for confidential information in the message. The computer system creates a redacted message in which values in the key value pairs identified for the confidential information are replaced with plaintext tags. The computer system stores the key value pairs in a secure database. The computer system stores the redacted message in a plaintext database.

  • Patent number: 11934240
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to thermal control implemented by a power management unit. In some embodiments, the power management unit itself is configured to monitor thermal conditions, implement control for one or more thermal loops, and send reduction alerts, via an inter-chip interconnect, to the processor circuitry it powers. In some embodiments, the power management unit implements both thermal and electromigration control loops. Disclosed techniques may advantageously reduce or avoid thermal issues, potentially with reduced impact on processor performance relative to traditional techniques.

  • Publication number: 20230386611
    Abstract: The technology disclosed directly operates on sequencing data and derives its own feature filters. It processes a plurality of aligned reads that span a target base position. It combines elegant encoding of the reads with a lightweight analysis to produce good recall and precision using lightweight hardware. For instance, one million training examples of target base variant sites with 50 to 100 reads each can be trained on a single GPU card in less than 10 hours with good recall and precision. A single GPU card is desirable because it a computer with a single GPU is inexpensive, almost universally within reach for users looking at genetic data. It is readily available on could-based platforms.

  • Patent number: 11390493
    Abstract: A hook assembly including a spring-biased safety latch that provides for installation of the latch onto the hook without spring tension. A fastener is configured to slide along an elongate slot when the latch is moved in translatory motion relative to the fastener. The fastener is configured to be inserted into the assembly in a first position while the tension on a biasing member is released. The first position is configured to allow the latch to rotate inward past the tip of the hook. The fastener is configured to move into a second position where it engages with a nut 53 that when installed is positioned in the portion and blocked by at least one shoulder such that the fastener is no longer able to slide in the slot preventing translator motion of the latch relative to the fastener.
