Abstract: Amorphous solid dispersions of nilotinib fumarate or nilotinib tartrate are provided, as well as pharmaceutical compositions thereof, wherein the compositions exhibit enhanced bioavailability in the fasted state. Preferably, the compositions may be orally administered to a patient in either the fed or fasted state, with a decrease or elimination of the food effect. Preferably, following oral administration of the pharmaceutical compositions, there is no substantial difference in the pharmacokinetic parameters (e.g., Cmax, AUC0-t and/or AUC0-infinity) of nilotinib, regardless of whether the pharmaceutical compositions are administered to a subject in the fed or fasted state.

Abstract: A system for improved localization of image forgery. The system generates a variational information bottleneck objective function and works with input image patches to implement an encoder-decoder architecture. The encoder-decoder architecture controls an information flow between the input image patches and a representation layer. The system utilizes information bottleneck to learn useful residual noise patterns and ignore semantic content present in each input image patch. The system trains a neural network to learn a representation indicative of a statistical fingerprint of a source camera model from each input image patch while excluding semantic content thereof. The system can determine a splicing manipulation localization by the trained neural network.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method can receive a request from a robotic process automation engine to identify a target user interface control element in a webpage represented by a current master data frame. The current master data frame comprises a current document object model (DOM). The method can determine that a target user interface control element identifier associated with the target user interface control element is absent in the current DOM. The method can retrieve an archived version of the target user interface control element from an archived master data frame of the webpage. The method can find an equivalent user interface control element within the current master data frame based at least on the archived version of the target user interface control element, and output an equivalent user interface control element identifier associated with the equivalent user interface control element.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for determining a preference for content based on swipe characteristics. A swiping application may present a user with a content identifier on a touchscreen display. Based on the user's touch-based interaction with the content identifier (e.g., the speed at which the user swipes the content identifier away, the angle and direction of the user's swipe gesture, and any halt time in the swipe gesture), the swiping application assigns a preference level to the content identifier.

Abstract: An electronic device and a method for human segmentation in an image are provided.

Abstract: For anomaly detection based on topogram predication from surface data, a sensor captures the outside surface of a patient. A generative adversarial network (GAN) generates a topogram representing an interior anatomy based on the outside surface of the patient. An X-ray image of the patient is acquired and compared to the generated topogram. By quantifying the difference between the real X-ray image and the predicted one, anatomical anomalies may be detected.

Abstract: A data storage management system incorporates image recognition and classification features. The illustrative system generates thumbnail images to represent images detected in secondary copies. Subsequent image recognition and classification operations are based on the thumbnail images without need to access the secondary copies from which the thumbnails were derived. The system indexes thumbnail images and respective relationships to each other and to the source secondary copies. Metadata from the source secondary copies is extracted and preserved with the thumbnails. Thumbnail images, metadata, and related index data (collectively “thumbnail data”) are stored locally in an illustrative content index server, or in an enhanced storage manager, thus improving performance without interfering with ongoing storage management operations. Features are disclosed for searching within the system and performing storage management operations based on image criteria. Access to/from other systems is also possible, e.g.
