Abstract: Risk prediction models are trained and deployed to analyze images, such as computed tomography scans, for predicting risk of lung cancer (e.g., current or future risk of lung cancer) for one or more subjects. Individual risk prediction models are trained on nodule-specific and non-nodule specific features, including longitudinal nodule specific and longitudinal non-nodule specific features, such that each risk prediction model can predict risk of lung cancer across different time horizons. Such risk prediction models are useful for developing preventive therapies for lung cancer by enabling clinical trial enrichment.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for cutting down a user's larger input video into an edited video comprising the most important video segments and applying corresponding video effects. Some embodiments of the present invention are directed to adding captioning video effects to the trimmed video (e.g., applying face-aware and non-face-aware captioning to emphasize extracted video segment headings, important sentences, quotes, words of interest, extracted lists, etc.). For example, a prompt is provided to a generative language model to identify portions of a transcript (e.g., extracted scene summaries, important sentences, lists of items discussed in the video, etc.) to apply to corresponding video segments as captions depending on the type of caption (e.g., an extracted heading may be captioned at the start of a corresponding video segment, important sentences and/or extracted list items may be captioned when they are spoken).

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for cutting down a user's larger input video into an edited video comprising the most important video segments and applying corresponding video effects. Some embodiments of the present invention are directed to adding face-aware scale magnification to the trimmed video (e.g., applying scale magnification to simulate a camera zoom effect that hides shot cuts with respect to the subject's face). For example, as the trimmed video transitions from one video segment to the next video segment, a scale magnification may be applied that zooms in on a detected face at a boundary between the video segments to smooth the transition between video segments.

Abstract: In implementation of techniques for vector font generation based on cascaded diffusion, a computing device implements a glyph generation system to receive a sample glyph in a target font and a target glyph identifier. The glyph generation system generates a rasterized glyph in the target font using a raster diffusion model based on the sample glyph and the target glyph identifier, the rasterized glyph having a first level of resolution. The glyph generation system then generates a vector glyph using a vector diffusion model by vectorizing the rasterized glyph, the vector glyph having a second level of resolution different than the first level of resolution. The glyph generation system then displays the vector glyph in a user interface.
