Abstract: A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes performing object detection on a frame to identify a set of objects within the frame, and determining a location of each object of the set of objects within the frame. The method further includes constructing a code tree structure for the frame. The code tree structure defines the determined locations. A rule defining modifications to make to at least some of the objects is received and the code tree structure is crawled. The rule is applied to the objects during the crawling. The method further includes layering the modifications defined in the rule on the set of objects within the frame. A computer program product according to another embodiment includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions are readable and/or executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform the foregoing method.

Abstract: Extending the spatial coverage of a reference pressure network. Particular embodiments described herein include machines that initially determine that an estimated position of a mobile device resides outside a coverage area of a network of reference pressure sensors. Reference-level pressures corresponding to reference pressure sensors of the network are determined using measurements of pressure from the network of reference pressure sensors. A pressure pattern for a region that includes the estimated position and an area not included in the coverage area of the network is determined using reference-level pressures that were not determined using measurements of pressure from the network of reference pressure sensors. The reference-level pressures corresponding to reference pressure sensors of the network and the pressure pattern are used to determine a reference-level pressure value for use in calibrating a pressure sensor of the mobile device or for use in estimating an altitude of the mobile device.
