Abstract: Self-consumable portions generation techniques from a digital document are described. The self-consumable portions are generated based on a determination of an amount of resources available at a receiver device that is to receive the digital document. Examples of the resources include an amount of memory resources, processing resources, and/or network resources associated with the receiver device. The self-consumable portions, once generated, are separately renderable at the receiver device.

Abstract: A machine-learning model (MLM) is trained to identify a given item identifier for an item and shelf dimensions of an empty space associated with the item from training images of a shelf. After training, real-time images of the shelf are provided as input to the MLM and the output provided by the MLM includes empty space identifiers, dimensions or pixel coordinates for each empty space identifier, and an item identifier for each empty space identifier. A quantity of each item identifier is determined based on known shelf dimensions that the corresponding item should occupy on a fully stocked shelf and based on the corresponding empty space dimensions for the empty space associated with the item. A real-time report is sent to store personnel and/or published on a website monitored by the store personnel. The report identifies the items, the shelves, and restocking item quantities that need restocked in the store.

Abstract: Methods for page split detection and affinity in query processing pushdowns are performed by systems and devices. Page servers perform pushdown operations based on specific, and specifically formatted or generated, information, instructions, and data provided thereto from a compute node. Page servers also determine that page splits have occurred during reading of data pages maintained by page servers during pushdown operations, and also during fulfillment of compute node data requests. To detect a data page has split, page servers utilize information from a compute node of an expected next data page which is compared to a next data page in the page server page index. A mismatch in the comparison by page servers indicates data page was split. Compute nodes and page servers store and maintain off-row data generated during data operations via page affinity considerations where the off-row data is stored at the same page server as the data.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein detect data corruption in a distributed data set system. For example, a system comprises node(s) for processing queries with respect to a distributed data set comprising a plurality of storage segments. A write transaction resulting from a query with respect to a particular storage segment is logged in a log record that describes a modification to the storage segment. A log service provides the log record to a data server managing a portion of the distributed data set in which the storage segment is included, which performs the write transaction with respect to the storage segment. For redundancy purposes, the data server has replica(s) that manage respective replicas of the portion of the distributed data set managed thereby. For backup purposes, snapshots of the replica(s) are periodically generated. To determine a data corruption, a snapshot of one replica is cross-validated with a snapshot of another replica.

Abstract: Methods for operation fragmentation with metadata serialization in query processing pushdowns are performed by systems and devices. A compute node receives a query directed to database data, and generates query text fragments. Portions of metadata of the database are read from different page servers, and are serialized by the compute node. Page identities of data pages in a page server that stores the data are determined from a page index at the compute node, and the compute node provides the text fragments, the serialized metadata, and the page identities to the page server storing the data. The page server compiles the text fragments based on the serialized metadata to generate an executable query plan for the query. The page server initializes and performs execution of the executable query plan against the data as a pushdown query operation, and a result of pushdown query operation is provided to the compute node.

Abstract: The extraction of a three-dimensional (3D) object is facilitated using a printed hint, which includes an additional shape that is printed along with the 3D object in a granular-based printer bed. In example implementations, the hint is indicative of a location of the 3D object. In one example, a hint has a dimension indicative of a depth to the object in the printer bed. In another example, a position of a hint is indicative that the object is below, and a size of the hint is based on a size of the object. Some hints can also protect the object. Examples include plate and shell-shaped hints. The object is located under a plate hint or within a shell hint. Further, an appearance of the object or indications of the sturdiness of different parts of the object can be printed on the hint to facilitate a safe extraction of the object.

Abstract: In implementations of pattern filling in garment pieces, a pattern filling system represents a first garment piece as a first curve and a second garment piece as a second curve. The system determines a relationship between the first garment piece and the second garment piece by comparing the first curve and the second curve. The pattern filling system generates a visually pleasing fill pattern for the first garment piece and the second garment piece based on the determined relationship.

Abstract: Brokering log records so as to prevent log records that are not yet persisted in a persistent log from being disseminated. The log records may be generated as a primary compute system performs operations. Upon receiving a request for a log record, the broker component determines whether the requested log record has been persisted in a persistent log. If the broker component determines that the log record has been persisted in the persistent log, the broker component responds to the request by causing the requested log record to be provided to the requesting entity (e.g., a secondary compute system). On the other hand, if the log record cannot yet determine that the log record has been persisted in the persistent log, the broker component prevents the log record from being provided to the requesting entity. This prevents data from being inconsistent during recovery.

Abstract: Techniques and systems are described for automatic artifact removal in a digital image. A segmentation map is generated that describes a magnitude of difference among pixels in a digital image. Contours may be generated that describe boundaries of objects described in the segmentation map. The contours may be filtered according to two-dimensional and three-dimensional cues to identify contours corresponding to artifacts in the digital image. For each contour corresponding to an artifact, an object mask and a sampling mask may be generated. The object mask and the sampling mask may be utilized as part of a content filling operation upon the digital image to remove the artifact, and a corrected digital image is generated that does not include the artifact.
