Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media embed a trained neural network within a digital image. For instance, in one or more embodiments, the systems identify out-of-gamut pixel values of a digital image in a first gamut, where the digital image is converted to the first gamut from a second gamut. Furthermore, the systems determine target pixel values of a target version of the digital image in the first gamut that correspond to the out-of-gamut pixel values. The systems train a neural network to predict the target pixel values in the first gamut based on the out-of-gamut pixel values. The systems embed the neural network within the digital image in the second gamut to allow for extraction of the embedded neural network from the digital image to restore the digital image to a larger gamut digital image.

Abstract: In an approach for monitoring media consumption, a processor receives data from a media collection device, wherein the data comprises at least information generated by at least one media broadcasting device of one or more media broadcasts. A processor compares the data to previously stored signatures, wherein the previously stored signatures are each associated with a respective media broadcast. A processor identifies the one or more media broadcasts using the data and the previously stored signatures. A processor compiles the identified one or more media broadcasts with a set of previously stored media broadcasts associated with the media collection device.

Abstract: In an approach to monitoring sunscreen effectiveness, a computer receives input from a user. The computer receives data corresponding to ultraviolet radiation exposure from a first ultraviolet radiation sensor and a second ultraviolet radiation sensor. The computer determines an amount of ultraviolet radiation received by the first ultraviolet radiation sensor and the second ultraviolet radiation sensor. The computer determines whether the amount of ultraviolet radiation received by the first ultraviolet radiation sensor is similar to the amount of ultraviolet radiation received by the second ultraviolet radiation sensor. The computer determines whether the amount of ultraviolet radiation received by the first ultraviolet radiation sensor is below an alert threshold. In response to determining the amount of ultraviolet radiation received by the first ultraviolet radiation sensor is not below an alert threshold, the computer transmits an alert message to the user.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product for generating state-driven role-based landing pages. An enterprise application user in a secure enterprise application environment provides user-specified content relevant to the user's role in the enterprise, and when the user invokes an enterprise application, initial screens displayed by the enterprise application are displayed as landing pages using the user-specified content. The method commences by validating an enterprise application user using a user profile and a security model where the security model serves to distinguish permitted or allowed enterprise application user activities from denied enterprise application activities. Once validated, then the method identifies a user's role or roles, and further, identifies the user's selection of subscriptions (e.g., subscriptions pertaining to content related to the user's role).

Abstract: Prioritization of project workspaces is provided herein. Data items are grouped into project workspaces based on workspace identifiers with which the data items have been tagged. Grouped data items included in a project workspace are tagged with a common workspace identifier that indicates association with a project corresponding to the project workspace, the project including tasks for a user. Priority of the project workspace is determined relative to priority of other project workspaces and based on ascertaining priorities of the tasks of the project by analyzing the grouped data items included in the project workspace. An indication of the priority of the project workspace relative to priority of the other project workspaces is provided for graphical presentation to the user, in order to facilitate focusing the user to a highest priority project workspace of the project workspaces.

Abstract: A method for determining if a user of a computer system is a human. A processor receives an indication that a computer security program is needed and acquires at least one image depicting a first string of characters including at least a first and second set of one or more characters. A processor assigns a substitute character to be used as input for each of the second set of one or more characters. A processor presents the at least one image and an indication of the substitute character and when to use the substitute character to the user. A processor receives a second string of characters from the user. A processor determines whether the second string of characters substantially matches the first string of characters based on the substitute character assigned to each of the second set of one or more characters and determines whether the user is a human.
