Abstract: Detecting fine-grained similarity in image includes determining a core area of a search image by generating an image salient map from a plurality of layers of the search image and determining a connected area based on the image salient map. Feature descriptors are generated from the core area of the search image. A plurality of capsule vectors are generated from different ones of a plurality of keypoints of the feature descriptors. Capsule vectors of the search image are compared with capsule vectors of each image of the dataset to generate a top-K matrix. Similarity scores for the top-K matrix are calculated. One or more image of the dataset having fine-grained similarity with the search image are selected based a bundled similarity score for each image of the dataset. The bundled similarity score is a summation of the similarity scores of the image.

Abstract: One or more systems, devices, computer program products and/or computer-implemented methods of use provided herein relate to detecting a closed ring in a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud via cycle basis. A system can comprise a memory configured to store computer executable components; and a processor configured to execute the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components can comprise a filtering component that can filter a first undirected graph of a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud, by eliminating one or more edges of the first undirected graph that are longer than an adaptive threshold, wherein filtering the first undirected graph can produce a second undirected graph; and a detection component that can detect a minimum cycle basis of the second undirected graph to determine a cycle path that can traverse an irregular annular shape that is represented by the 3D point cloud.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for scheduling a workload in a cloud computing system. A cloud affinity factor (CAF) computer model is trained, via a machine learning process based on a training dataset comprising static characteristics of a workload binary for a workload, and dynamic characteristics corresponding to historical performance data for the workload, such that the trained CAF computer model predicts a performance classification for a given workload binary. The trained CAF computer model processes a new workload to generate a performance classification for the new workload. Cloud affinity factor(s) are generated based on the performance classification for the new workload. Node affinity and dispatch rule(s) are applied to the cloud affinity factor(s) to select one or more nodes of the cloud computing system to which to dispatch the workload. The workload is then scheduled on the selected one or more nodes.

Abstract: Methods and systems may be configured to verify proper installation of Internet Protocol (IP) connectable building automation devices by installers at remote sites. The installers may be a crowdsourced installers. A service provider may engage an installer to install one or more IP connectable building automation devices. To ensure verification that the one or more IP connectable building automation devices are installed properly, parameters or values based on data from installed IP connectable building automation devices may be provided to or determined by a blockchain network. The blockchain network may compare the parameters or values to thresholds and automatically provide an indication as to whether the parameters or values meet or exceed the thresholds (e.g., verification criteria).
