Publication number: 20240097967Abstract: A system and method for mitigating anomalies in a network device. One or a combination of mitigation actions may be pre-programmed into a plurality of customer premises equipment (CPE) devices. The mitigation actions may be available as temporary or permanent work arounds as problems are detected that match known or discovered patterns of log events. Unsupervised machine learning techniques may be used to identify and correlate new patterns of log events with device anomalies or malfunctions. When a new pattern of log events is discovered and correlated to an anomaly or malfunction in a group of CPE devices, the discovered pattern may be written to the group of CPE devices with instructions to use particular ones of the mitigation actions. The CPE devices can then, in examples, monitor their own logs to detect the patterns and implement one or more of the mitigation actions.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: CenturyLink Intellectual Property LLCInventors: Shaun Hawkinson, Kevin Lu

Patent number: 11915133Abstract: Systems and methods seamlessly blend edited and unedited regions of an image. A computing system crops an input image around a region to be edited. The system applies an affine transformation to rotate the cropped input image. The system provides the rotated cropped input image as input to a machine learning model to generate a latent space representation of the rotated cropped input image. The system edits the latent space representation and provides the edited latent space representation to a generator neural network to generate a generated edited image. The system applies an inverse affine transformation to rotate the generated edited image and aligns an identified segment of the rotated generated edited image with an identified corresponding segment of the input image to produce an aligned rotated generated edited image. The system blends the aligned rotated generated edited image with the input image to generate an edited output image.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2021Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Ratheesh Kalarot, Kevin Wampler, Jingwan Lu, Jakub Fiser, Elya Shechtman, Aliakbar Darabi, Alexandru Vasile Costin
