Abstract: A location of an anatomical structure in image(s) from a surgical procedure is predicted using machine learning. An image/video capture device such as an endoscope, a wearable camera, a stationary camera, etc., can be used to capture the image(s). A confidence score of the prediction of the machine learning is determined. A surgeon can be provided an augmented visualization of the surgical procedure by displaying one or more graphical overlays based on the findings of the machine learning to enhance the surgeon-s information.

Abstract: An aspect includes a computer-implemented method that accesses input data including spatial data and/or sensor data temporally associated with a video stream of a surgical procedure. One or more machine-learning models predict a state of the surgical procedure based on the input data. The one or more machine-learning models detect one or more surgical instruments at least partially depicted in the video stream based on the input data. A state indicator and one or more surgical instrument indicators temporally correlated with the video stream are output.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for transferring data in a blockchain network. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to computer-implemented methods for creating and encrypting electronic wallets in blockchain networks and systems and methods configured to carry out data transactions in the blockchain network. For example, the present disclosure describes a method for creating and encrypting an electronic wallet of a blockchain network, comprising a step of obtaining the electronic wallet by a computing device from a user. The electronic wallet may include a private password data, a public password data, and a wallet identification data. The method has steps wherein the private password data, the public password data and/or the wallet identification data are encrypted with random salt data. The encrypted data is transmitted via an API to computing modules having functions of data storage, processing of requests, and blockchain network access.

Abstract: A method of encoding information (10) by using null-sized spaces, ZWSP, from an original text (11), transforming it into a text with hidden information (12), wherein the encoded information (10) is integrated by adding the ZWSP used in encoding. Hidden information encoded in a text ZWSP (120) can contain: Text block number, pre-set block size, text and author metadata, calculated text hash, and a time stamp. A text monitoring system (42) comprising a decoder module (30) that implements the reverse method for decoding information (10) from a received text detecting ZWSP in at least part of the text and extracting the information (10) to obtain the original text (11) using the detected ZWSP. The monitoring system (42) can additionally comprise an encoder module (20) that uses the ZWSPs and be integrated into a remote messaging server (41).

Abstract: Techniques are provided for implementing a snapshot copy operation between endpoints. One or more snapshots (e.g., snapshots of an on-premise volume) is stored within a source endpoint, such as a source bucket of an object store. A post operation is executed to copy objects comprising snapshot data of a snapshot from the source endpoint to a destination endpoint. A get operation and a tracking object such as a cookie is used to track progress of copying the objects from the source endpoint to the destination endpoint. The tracking object is used to restart the copying of the objects from a point where the copying left off (e.g., in the event there is a failure) without having to restart from the beginning.
