Abstract: A set of electronic slide decks is searched using a target slide of a first electronic slide deck, each of the electronic slide decks containing a sequence of slides to be presented individually. A computer system receives from a user input individually selecting the target slide as a search input from the slides of the first electronic slide deck, compares the target slide with the slides of each electronic slide deck in the set to determine whether any of those slides matches the target slide, so as to determine, for each of the set of electronic slide decks, whether that electronic slide deck contains at least one slide that matches the target slide; and displays a set of search results in response to the user input, wherein each of the search results represents one of the electronic slide decks determined to contain at least one matching slide.

Abstract: Systems and methods for three-dimensional object counting in a three-dimensional space include an image capture device configured to obtain at least one 2D image of the three-dimensional space, a scanner configured to obtain a 3D point cloud of the three-dimensional space, and a processor configured to cooperate with at least one artificial neural network, the at least one artificial neural network configured to classify and count objects in the three-dimensional space

Abstract: This disclosure relates to computer-implemented management of first and second electronic documents, each of containing a sequence of content components. A user interface displays a first sequence of display elements to represent the first electronic document, and a second sequence of display elements to represent the second electronic document. Each of the display elements in each of the displayed sequences represents an individual content component or group of content components of the electronic document represented by that sequence. The first and second sequences are displayed alongside each other, with their respective display elements in an initial alignment, to allow a side-by-side comparison of the electronic documents. The user can automatically realign the sequences to a selected content component.

Abstract: A computer system edits a first electronic slide deck by reusing content from a second electronic slide deck, the electronic slide decks containing first and second sequences of slides respectively. The computer system identifies at least a second of the slides of the second electronic slide deck as a candidate for insertion in the first electronic slide deck by identifying the second slide as having a target positional relationship with a first slide of the first electronic slide deck. In response to the user accepting a suggestion to insert the second slide into the first slide deck, a version of the second slide is inserted into the first slide deck at a position in the first sequence that is determined automatically by the computer system.

Abstract: This disclose relates to computer-implemented management of an electronic slide deck, the electronic slide deck containing a set of slides to be presented individually. The computer system processes the slides of the electronic slide deck to autonomously group the slides into a plurality of groups, the autonomous grouping being performed by identifying the slides in each of the groups as having related content, generates in association with the electronic slide deck, grouping data in electronic storage accessible to the computer system, the grouping data denoting the identified groups of slides, and controls a user interface based on the stored grouping data to convey, to a user, information relating to at least one of the identified groups of slides.

Abstract: Systems, methods and devices for providing stabilization between first and second vertebrae are provided. More particularly, in one form a system includes an implant configured to be positioned in a disc space between the first and second vertebrae and a freestanding plate for engagement with extradiscal surfaces of the first and second vertebrae. The system also includes an insertion instrument with an engaging portion configured to releasably engage with the implant and the plate such that the implant and plate can be positioned together relative to the first and second vertebrae. In one aspect, an angular orientation of the implant relative to the plate is adjustable when the implant and the plate are engaged by the instrument. In this or another aspect, the implant and plate are held in a contiguous relationship when engaged by the instrument. However, different forms and applications are also envisioned.
