Abstract: The present technology is directed to controlling and managing resources both in Software-Defined Cloud Interconnect (SDCI) providers and cloud service providers via a single network controller and further connecting virtual networks in a branch site to virtual networks in the cloud service providers. A network controller can establish a network gateway in an SDCI provider, establish a cross-connectivity between the network gateway in the SDCI provider and one or more clouds, group one or more virtual networks in the one or more clouds and one or more virtual networks in a branch site into a tag, and establish a connection between the one or more virtual networks in the one or more clouds and the one or more virtual networks in the branch site using the tag.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory, machine-readable media for zero-touch interworking of network control with data platform and analytics in virtualized deployment are disclosed. Responsive to a network service request for service location identifiers, data from data sources may be processed, and indicia of data characteristics may be analyzed to create or develop a data model. Configuration specifications may be created to instantiate a network slice and network services as a function of the data characteristics, conforming to quality of service parameters and service location identifiers. A log mapped to the request may be created and included in a template specifying a data observability framework and resources for the network slice and network services. The slice and services may be instantiated with the configuration specifications, with data services provided to user equipment of the external entity, and with the cellular network consequently providing data services to user equipment.

The method also includes selecting a list of one or more applications for auditing, and for each application in the list: selecting a corresponding golden parameter master list from the set of golden parameter master lists and comparing each of the parameter values of the golden parameter master list to a corresponding set of parameter values of the application to generate a set of discrepancies.

Abstract: Variety of approaches to provide an automatic group creation based on an organization hierarchy are described. A hosted service initiates operation(s) to automatically create a group upon detecting a new organization hierarchy or a utilization of a feature of a hosted service by an existing organization hierarchy. Next, group members are determined based on the organization hierarchy. The group is created that includes the group members to coordinate services within the hosted service based on the organization hierarchy. Furthermore, an attribute of the created group is defined. A resource is also generated for the created group. The resource includes a notebook, a work space, a collaboration site, and/or a planner. The created group is deployed to coordinate the services. The resource is managed through the services.

Abstract: Systems and methods for digital pathology in accordance with embodiments of the invention obtain a whole slide image of a microscope slide that includes a registration mark, wherein the registration mark is associated with a coordinate system. The method inputs the whole slide image into a region identification (RI) model to extract features of the whole slide image and generate feature vectors for the extracted features, detects a presence of a region of interest (ROI) based on the feature vectors, determines a set of coordinates of the ROI in the coordinate system, and translates a microscope stage of a microscope holding the microscope slide to a position corresponding to the coordinates of the ROI. The method captures a field of view (FOV) image with the microscope and inputs the FOV image into a grading model to determine a pathology score that indicates a likelihood of a presence of a disease.
