  • Patent number: 12259937
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to graph-based design mapping and function route generation. A computer-implemented method includes analyzing first user interfaces and second user interfaces to identify features of each user interface, where the second user interfaces include at least one change to the first user interfaces. A first graph representing the features of the first user interfaces and a second graph representing the features of the second user interfaces are generated. A function mapping is determined based on a similarity calculation between the first graph and the second graph. A node that satisfies an influence threshold is recommended to do limited manual labeling. The function mapping is updated based on the labeling. A visualization of the function mapping is created between the first user interfaces and the second user interfaces. Function route generation can be performed.

  • Patent number: 12199988
    Abstract: Some methods enable a first device to assist a second device in becoming authenticated with a content management system. The content management system can receive user credentials or an elevated access token from the first device. The content management system can respond to the first device with an access token for use by the second device. Alternatively, the content management system can send the access token directly to the second device. The second device can then use the access token for authenticated communications with the content management system.

  • Patent number: 12026088
    Abstract: An approach for assisting software developers to fill the data gap and reproducing client application issue using reported reproducing steps is disclosed. The approach involves constructing service request/response sequence (from the developer's side based on the limited data) from customer's reproducing steps and developer's running inspection result and perform UI-service mapping, redirecting service call to data simulator which replay the service request and response, and adjusting service response with multiple data sources and policies. Lastly, the approach can transform the issue to an automatic test script with the service response in a mockup function (e.g., can be used to extend test data and enhance test cases).

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a cone-rod dual-modality neuromorphic vision sensor, including: a first preset quantity of voltage-mode active pixel sensor (APS) circuits and a second preset quantity of current-mode APS circuits, where each of the voltage-mode APS circuits includes a first-type photosensitive device, and each of the current-mode APS circuits includes a second-type photosensitive device. The voltage-mode APS can output a target voltage signal representing light intensity information in a target light signal. The obtained target voltage signal represents the light intensity information with a higher precision, and therefore an image with higher quality can be obtained, that is, the image has a higher signal-noise ratio.
