Abstract: Systems and methods for providing interaction data in response to a query from a content provider are provided. One method includes receiving a query from the content provide including a plurality of parameters relating to interactions with a content item of the content provider. The method includes retrieving a set of log file records using the included plurality of parameters and generating a current set of records identifying interaction data with the content item. The method includes comparing the current set of records to a previous set of records generated by the one or more processors for a previous query from the content provider and determining a similarity between the current set of records and the previous set of records. The method includes modifying, if the similarity is above a threshold, the current set of records and providing the modified set of records to the content provider.

Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a valve assembly for use with a combustion engine. The valve assembly can include a valve stem having a plunger end, and a valve head having a stem portion disposed along a central axis and connected to the plunger end of the valve stem. The valve head can have a hollow interior portion defining interior floor and ceiling surfaces, and include ribs that extend between the interior floor and ceiling surfaces. The ribs can also extend radially around the central axis of the valve head from the stem portion to an outer circumference of the hollow interior portion. Additionally, the ribs can be configured such that a majority of an upper surface of each rib contacts the ceiling surface.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a cushion apparatus comprising a resilient spring member. Typically, the cushion apparatus in configured to provide flexible support to a user, allow air circulation through and within the cushion apparatus and allow ventilation of excess heat. In some embodiments, the cushion apparatus comprises a resilient spring member and a cushion cover member at least partially enclosing the spring member. In some embodiments, the cushion cover member is structured to be removable attached to the resilient spring member.

Abstract: A stream hosting server generates anchors associated with a live stream, each anchor specifying a timestamp of the live stream that represents an opportune moment for a user to join the live stream. When a viewer client device sends a request to join the live stream, the stream hosting server analyzes the anchor list and selects an appropriate anchor. The stream hosting server provides the live stream to the viewer client device beginning at the timestamp specified by the anchor. Thus, the viewer client device can begin displaying the live stream at the opportune moment specified by the anchor. The stream hosting server also creates video on demand content that include a completed live stream as well as anchors associated with the live stream. The viewer client device can display the VOD beginning at different anchors.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for authentication of user devices to a display device are provided.

Abstract: A system for fabricating a part (12) comprises a build chamber (14), a powder feed system (18) for feeding a polymeric powder (22) to the build chamber, a heating system (40) for melting and fusing the polymeric powder to form a fused polymeric part in the build chamber, and a vacuum system (50) to apply a specified vacuum pressure to the build chamber, wherein the vacuum pressure is at or below a threshold pressure so that a porosity of the fused polymeric part is at or below a specified threshold porosity.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an online or mobile application for playing a location-based multiplayer game. In one configuration and by non-limiting example, the game is a cross-platform, location-based, massively-multiplayer game of strategy. Players interact to capture millions of battle zones that correspond to real world locations in hundreds of countries using their mobile devices, web browsers, and consoles.

Abstract: A method for reducing bandwidth needed for streaming media content. The method includes identifying, by the streaming media server, a subset of a plurality of media content items having a portion of media data in common and extracting, by the streaming media server, the common portion from a first media content item of the subset; generating, by the streaming media server, a common media package comprising the extracted common portion, providing, by the streaming media server to a client media device, the common media package, and receiving, by the streaming media server from the client media device, a request for an item of content. The method also includes selecting an item of content from the subset; and transmitting, by the streaming media server to the client media device, an identification of the common media package and an identification of a chunk of the selected item of content subsequent to the common portion.

Abstract: Presented herein are various methods for using head positioning pillows to optimize respiratory titration. More specifically, the method includes a first step of determining an optimal relative angle between the patient's mouth and throat at which the patient's airway is optimally opened. The method also includes a second step of adjusting a head positioning pillow relative to the patient's head and neck to modify and transform the configuration of the pillow to achieve a pillow position that achieves the optimal relative angle.
