  • Publication number: 20250111135
    Abstract: Disclosed is a range preview system that displays data from a relevant range of cells. The range preview system intelligently elides and contextualizes data ranges for efficient visualization. The range preview system optimizes space utilization by selectively collapsing rows and columns. For example, rows and columns that are referenced by a formula may be selected for inclusion in the range preview. This conserves screen real estate while providing users with a concise overview of data ranges. The range preview system may also infer labels, providing context during formula interpretation by associating references with nearby headers or other descriptions.

  • Publication number: 20250111134
    Abstract: Disclosed are novel approaches to debugging a formula in a spreadsheet environment. An execution trace shows step-by-step how a formula is evaluated. Instead of overwhelming users by displaying a step for every atomic evaluation, multiple evaluations are displayed in the same step. This makes the execution trace compact yet intuitive, enabling users to quickly and efficiently understand how the formula is evaluated. Visualizing formula execution in this way also reduces the computing and energy costs of excess recalculations incurred by trial-and-error based debugging techniques.

  • Publication number: 20250078480
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to an adaptive AI model for 3D object detection using synthetic training data. For example, an ML model is trained to detect certain items of interest based on a training set that is synthetically generated in real time during the training process. The training set comprises a plurality of images depicting containers that are virtually packed with items of interest. Each image of the training set is a composite of an image comprising a container that is packed with items of non-interest and an image comprising an item of interest scanned in isolation. A plurality of such images is generated during any given training iteration of the ML model. Once trained, the ML model is configured to detect items of interest in actual containers and output a classification indicative of a likelihood that a container comprises an item of interest.

  • Publication number: 20250036811
    Abstract: Data is received that specifies a bound for an adversarial posterior belief pc that corresponds to a likelihood to re-identify data points from the dataset based on a differentially private function output. Privacy parameters ?, ? are then calculated based on the received data that govern a differential privacy (DP) algorithm to be applied to a function to be evaluated over a dataset. The calculating is based on a ratio of probabilities distributions of different observations, which are bound by the posterior belief pc as applied to a dataset. The calculated privacy parameters are then used to apply the DP algorithm to the function over the dataset. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
