Abstract: Systems and methods directed to returning personalized image-based search results are described. In examples, a query including an image may be received, and a personalized item embedding may be generated based on the image and user profile information associated with a user. Further, a plurality of candidate images may be obtained based on the personalized item embedding. The candidate images may then be ranked according to a predicted level of user engagement for a user, and then diversified to ensure visual diversity among the ranked images. A portion of the diversified images may then be returned in response to an image-based search.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a providing related content recommendations in response to a user search query by supervising the training of pair embeddings using contrastive learning and pairwise co-click signals. The approach combines a two tower model architecture with a cascaded multilayer perceptron model to enable the adoption of variable combinations of input features and more representative learned pair embeddings. The learned embeddings undergo supervised contrastive loss training to generate a related content recommendation model, which is subsequently evaluated using both online and offline metrics. The related content recommendation model can provide results to search queries that improve recommendation quality and increase user engagement, thereby ultimately enhancing long term user experience.

Abstract: A method for detecting repetitive data accesses and automatically storing the data into the local cache, the method including: storing a cache line in a first cache of a first processor; tracking accesses to the cache line by monitoring executions of a snapshot instruction made by a second processor; and controlling enablement of a load operation based on the tracked accesses. The load operation is performed by storing a copy of the cache line into a local cache of the second processor and changing the cache coherence state of the cache line in the first cache to a shared state.

Abstract: A collimated stereo display system is provided. The system comprises: an image generator enabled to provide a stream of stereoscopic images comprising left eye images and right eye images; at least one image modulator enabled to receive the stream of stereoscopic images from the image generator and form light into the stereoscopic images for viewing at a viewing apparatus for filtering the light into the left eye images and the right eye images respectively thereby providing a three dimensional rendering of the stereoscopic images when viewed through the viewing apparatus; and, collimation apparatus enabled to receive and collimate the light from the at least one image modulator, such that rays of light are substantially parallel when the stereoscopic images are received at the viewing apparatus.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for projecting visible and non-visible images is provided. The system and apparatus include: a visible light source and a non-visible light source; at least one light modulator enabled for receiving and modulating the visible light and non-visible light to respectively form visible images and non-visible images, the non-visible images formed independent of the visible images; and projection optics enabled for receiving and co-projecting the visible and non-visible images in alignment. Furthermore, video data for projection is formed by replacing a portion of visible bits with at least a portion of non-visible bits in a data stream, such that the visible images and the non-visible images can be co-projected upon processing the video data.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods for controlling and monitoring access to network servers. In particular, the process described in the invention includes client-server sessions over the Internet. In this environment, when the user attempts to access an access-controlled file, the server subjects the request to a secondary server which determines whether the client has an authorization or valid account. Upon such verification, the user is provided with a session identification which allows the user to access to the requested file as well as any other files within the present protection domain.

The torsional energy unit biases the back to a forward position. The torsional energy unit further limits angular rotation of the seat between a substantially horizontal seating position and a substantially vertical seating position.
