  • Publication number: 20240012884
    Abstract: A system for, and method of, authorizing usage of software developed in an application management platform are disclosed. The techniques include obtaining, from the application management platform, risk qualification parameters for the software; determining a risk qualification value from the risk qualification parameters; obtaining risk threshold parameters; determining a risk threshold value from the risk threshold parameters; comparing the risk qualification value to the risk threshold value to obtain an acceptability state for usage of the software; and performing an authority to operate action based on the acceptability state, where the authority to operate action includes at least one of: authorizing release of the software upon a positive acceptability state, or instructing the application management platform to send an alert upon a negative acceptability state.

  • Publication number: 20210118147
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for image processing are described. A device may determine a split-screen condition associated with a video image and perform an additional analysis to confirm the split-screen condition. In some examples, the device may generate a truncated image composed of one or more pixels located at each corner of a first image (e.g., a displayed image), and the device may process the truncated image to determine whether a split-screen condition is present for the displayed image. The device may use a continuality analysis, in which the device determines pixel values associated with multiple rows (or columns, or both) of a video image and compares differences between the pixel values at opposite ends of a video image to a threshold, to determine whether a split-screen condition is present. The device may then confirm a split-screen condition by processing the video image using an edge detection filter.
