Abstract: In one example, a computing system comprises processing circuitry that executes instructions to determine whether a media content item is eligible for identification of key moments, retrieve a plurality of reactions associated with the media content item, wherein each reaction comprises a reaction timestamp that corresponds to a time at which a reaction was received and a graphical icon that corresponds to one of the reactions, group the reactions based on the reaction timestamp and the selected graphical icon, identify a plurality of key moments within the media content item based on the groupings, wherein each of the key moments is associated with a representative graphical icon that corresponds to an aggregated viewer reaction, and cause an indication of the media content item to be presented in a user interface while presenting the aggregated viewer reaction at each time window associated with each of the key moments.

Abstract: Aspiration thrombectomy devices and methods wherein an aspiration cycle includes a positive displacement segment to facilitate clot removal, a pump cartridge to facilitate tube management and an aspiration device for providing a vacuum surge. Disclosed herein is an aspiration thrombectomy system which relies on air or inert gas, rather than liquid, to provide both static and dynamic suction level profiles for safely and efficiently retrieving and removing from the body a thrombus. In one example embodiment, two or more pressure sources may be configured to apply two or more suction levels to an aspiration catheter. Valves may connect conduits between the pressure sources and the aspiration catheter, with the valves being selectively opened or closed to control which pressure level is applied to the catheter.

Abstract: Processes and systems for producing N-vinyl carboxylic acid amides are provided herein. According to some aspects of the present invention, a process for producing an N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide is described that eliminates interim solids handling steps during formation of the intermediate compounds, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing cost. The processes and system described herein may be used for the synthesis of N-vinylformamide and its intermediates, including 1-hydroxyethylformamide and 1-alkoxyethylformamide, or for the synthesis of N-methyl,N-vinylformamide and its intermediates, including N-methyl,1-hydroxyethylformamide and N-methyl,1alkoxyethylformamide.

Abstract: The present disclosure comprises systems and methods for providing a stream of only those photographs (including those inter-mixed with videos and hybrid types (animated gifs, animated photo bursts, etc.)) that may be of interest to particular users in a social network based on consideration of user social graphs and other external signals generated for the photographs based on predefined criteria to determine user interest levels. The systems and methods obtain photographs, retrieve social graphs for particular users, evaluate and filter photographs, rank them, and limit the number of photographs provided for viewing from a single source. Accordingly, only photographs that are determined to be most interesting to particular users are provided for display to them.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automatically sharing media between users is provided. A first image is received depicting a scene with one or more persons. Face detection information is identified for each person in the first image. Identification information for each face detected is obtained without user intervention. The face detection information and the identification information are associated with the first image. The first image including the associated face detection information and identification information is sent to a server hosting a media sharing service. An access link to an event group is received. The event group includes an album of the first image and a first collection of images that share a set of common features with the first image.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automatically sharing media between users is provided. Collections of images are received from different users, where each collection is associated with a particular user and the users may be associated with each other. The collections are grouped into one or more albums based on the content of the images in the collection, where each album is associated with a particular user. The albums from the different users are grouped into one or more event groups based on the content of the albums. The event groups are then shared automatically, without user intervention, between the different users based on their associations with each other and their individual sharing preferences.

Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatuses for guaranteeing a shut-down time for a laser in a laser surgical unit are presented. More particularly, embodiments of such methods, systems and apparatuses may provide shut-down logic which comprises a timer which may be triggered by a signal received from an event. At the expiration of the timer a signal may be output which is configured to disable the output of the laser. Specifically, in one embodiment, software may be used to configure a shut-down time and a set of events to be utilized to start the timer. Upon firing of the laser the timer will be enabled. During the operation of the laser then, if one of the set of events occurs the timer will be triggered such that at the end of the shut-down time the output of the laser will be disabled.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a surgical laser system having a control architecture operable to enable the surgical laser to be controlled from a user interface local to the laser system (e.g., the laser system front panel) and from a remote device. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a surgical laser unit operable to implement one set of functionality may be coupled to an advanced control unit such that the surgical laser unit may be controllable by the advanced control unit. The advance control unit may be a surgical system such as a vitreoretinal surgical system or other such surgical system.

Abstract: Process to separate linear 5-formylvaleric acid from a mixture of 5- and 3- and 4-formylvaleric acids, wherein the separation is performed by fractional extraction with two immiscible solvents of which one solvent is an aqueous solvent and the other solvent is an organic solvent, in which the organic solvent has a higher or lower affinity for 5-formylvaleric acid than its affinity for the 3-formylvaleric acids and for the 4-formylvaleric acid. Furthermore the invention relates to an improved process to prepare ∈-caprolactam starting from a mixture of branched and linear formylvaleric acids or starting from pentenoic acid.
