  • Patent number: 12192593
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that utilize machine learning to generate a sequence of transition frames for a gap in a clipped digital video. For example, the disclosed system receives a clipped digital video that includes a pre-cut frame prior to a gap in the clipped digital video and a post-cut frame following the gap in the clipped digital video. Moreover, the disclosed system utilizes a natural motion sequence model to generates a sequence of transition keypoint maps between the pre-cut frame and the post-cut frame. Furthermore, using a generative neural network, the disclosed system generates a sequence of transition frames for the gap in the clipped digital video from the sequence of transition keypoint maps.

  • Patent number: 12174701
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a low-latency, low-overhead fault tolerant remote memory framework, which packs similar-size in-memory objects into individual page-aligned spans and applies erasure coding on these spans. The framework fully utilizes efficient one-sided remote memory accesses (RMAs) to swap spans in and out using minimal network input/outputs (I/Os), with compaction techniques that reduce remote memory fragmentation. The framework can achieve lower tail latency and higher application performance compared to other fault tolerance solutions, at the cost of potentially more memory usage.
