Abstract: In example embodiments, techniques are provided for classifying elements of infrastructure models using a convolutional graph neural network (GNN). Graph-structured data structures are generated from infrastructure models, in which nodes represent elements and edges represent contextual relationships among elements (e.g., based on proximity, functionality, parent-child relationships, etc.). During training, the GNN learns embeddings from the nodes and edges of the graph-structured data structures, the embeddings capturing contextual clues that distinguish between elements that may share similar geometry (e.g., cross section, volume, surface area, etc.), yet serve different purposes.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for synchronizing media content in a media distribution network using timestamps. The system includes a decoder configured to parse a plurality of data packets of a media stream to determine a timestamp value for each video frame in the media stream; and a media content synchronizer. The media content synchronizer generates a media content timeline based on the determined timestamp value of each of video frame, generates the media content timeline based on a cadence having monotonic increasing count, determines whether each video frame of the media stream is a next frame in a video sequence of the media stream based on the timestamp value for the respective video frame, and repeats a previous frame in the video sequence to generate the media content timeline when a current frame in the video sequence was dropped based on the determined timestamp value.

Abstract: A system is provided for dynamically managing a media production work package. The system includes a media production work package generator that builds a media production work package that includes media processing functions; and a processing function manager that generates function trackers that are each assigned to a respective one of the plurality of media processing functions and comprise a unique identity. Moreover, the system includes a function deployment manager that embeds the function trackers in the respective media processing functions, and deploys the media processing functions to resources available in a cloud computing network that includes both physical resources and software resources.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining a karstic region modified by karstification phenomena. This method comprises, from a geological model, determining a seed cell and a target cell in that model. If a distance between the seed cell and the target cell is above a given distance, it is possible to update the seed cell with a bifurcation cell based at least on the coordinates of the seed cell, the coordinates of the target cell, a distance distribution, an angular distribution, and to re-iterate the test. Based on that bifurcation cells, trajectory is computed and cells of that trajectory is updated with new cell characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds of formula I and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds of the invention inhibit tyrosine kinase activity of growth factor receptors such as HER1, HER2 and HER4 thereby making them useful as antiproliferative agents. The compounds are also useful for the treatment of other diseases associated with signal transduction pathways operating through growth factor receptors.
