Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for synchronizing timestamps associated with media files across a variety of capture devices. For example, the disclosed systems receive a media file captured with a user device and determine, from metadata, initial timestamp information for the media file that includes inaccurate or incomplete time zone information. The disclosed systems determine a predicted time zone for the media file by extracting GPS information from the metadata associated with the media file or identifying a peer media file and utilizing a time zone or GPS information associated with the peer media file. The disclosed systems generate a synchronized timestamp for the media file with updated timestamp information based on the predicted time zone.

Systems and methods are disclosed that perform mask (manufacturing) rule checks (MRC) in parallel, sharing information to maintain symmetry when violations are corrected.

Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to intelligent migration between personal area networks (PANs) of a wireless mesh network. In one example, a method includes receiving, by a node connected to a first PAN, a packet from a second PAN. Based on the packet, the node determines that a second instability factor related to stability of the second PAN differs by at least a margin from a first instability factor related to stability of the first PAN. The node transmits, to a neighboring node in the first PAN, a migration notification message indicating that the node is migrating and receives, from the neighboring node in the first PAN, a request for the node to remain in the first PAN. The node applies one or more rules to reject the request for the node to remain in the first PAN and, based on rejecting the request, proceeds to complete the migration.

Abstract: An image inpainting system is described that receives an input image that includes a masked region. From the input image, the image inpainting system generates a synthesized image that depicts an object in the masked region by selecting a first code that represents a known factor characterizing a visual appearance of the object and a second code that represents an unknown factor characterizing the visual appearance of the object apart from the known factor in latent space. The input image, the first code, and the second code are provided as input to a generative adversarial network that is trained to generate the synthesized image using contrastive losses. Different synthesized images are generated from the same input image using different combinations of first and second codes, and the synthesized images are output for display.

Abstract: Technologies for reducing the impact of inductors on electrical traces are disclosed. In an illustrative embodiment, conductive ink is applied in a silk screen layer on top of a solder mask of a circuit board. The conductive ink forms shield regions under and near where inductors are placed and/or where a power plane is routed.

Abstract: Generating reports from database is conventionally performed manually which requires skilled persons, time consuming and prone to errors. Thus, embodiments of present disclosure provide a no-code platform for generating reports as a transaction. User selects a slice object, its information attributes, report attributes, and optionally filters, grouping, splitting, and sorting conditions which are displayed by the no-code platform. Further, a database query is generated based on the user selection by the no code platform. The database query is then executed to retrieve data from a database. Finally, a report is generated based on the retrieved data and the report attributes. Thus, users can obtain reports as a transaction by just specifying their requirements. They need not know the complex structure of the database. Also, the method can be used to generate any type of report from any type of database irrespective of the internal data organization of the database.
