  • Publication number: 20240232192
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method dynamically switches access plans for a query during concurrent query execution. The method includes receiving a first query configured to be processed by a database system. The method also includes generating, for the first query, an access plan for each of identified resource sets. The method includes determining a first set of available resources that represent an available capacity for the database system. The method further includes selecting a first resource set of the one or more resource sets, where the selecting is based on the first set of available resources being closest to the first resource set. The method also includes selecting, based on the first set of available resources, a first access plan of the one or more access plans. The method includes executing the first query and returning results of the first query to a source of the first query.

  • Patent number: 12026895
    Abstract: A monocular vision-based method for measuring displacement and trajectory of planar motion. In this method, a sequence image of a motion of a high-contrast feature mark fixed on a moving plane to be measured is collected using a camera. A sub-pixel coordinate of a feature edge of a linear motion of the sequence in an X direction and a Y direction is extracted using a sub-pixel edge detection method, and the sub-pixel coordinate is converted into a corresponding world coordinate. The world coordinate of the feature edge is fitted based on a least squares principle to obtain a straight line of the feature edge to realize decoupling measurement of a displacement in the X direction and the Y direction. The planar motion trajectory is obtained through measuring the displacement in the X direction and the Y direction.

    Abstract: In an approach for post-modeling data visualization and analysis, a processor presents a first visualization of a training dataset in a first plot. Responsive to receiving a selection of a data group of the training dataset to analyze, a processor identifies three or fewer key model features of the data group of the training dataset. A processor ascertains a representative record of each key model feature of the three or fewer key model features using a Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanation technique. A processor presents a second visualization of the three or fewer key model features and the representative record of each key model feature in a second plot.

  • Patent number: 12008318
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to the automatic generation of captions for visual media, including photos, photo albums, non-live video, and live video. The visual media may be analyzed to determine contextual information (such as location information, people and objects in the video, time, etc.). A system may integrate this information with information from the user's social network and a personalized language model built using public-facing language from the user. The personalized language model captures the user's way of speaking to make the generated captions more detailed and personalized. The language model may account for the context in which the video was generated. The captions maybe used to simplify and encourage content generation, and may also be used to index visual media, rank the media, and recommend the media to users likely to engage with the media.

  • Publication number: 20240188067
    Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing collisions of transmission data for a first subscriber (e.g., a voice subscriber) with transmission data for a second subscriber (e.g., a data subscriber) at a dual sim dual active (DSDA) user equipment (UE) are described herein. A DSDA UE may be configured to implement a modified skipUplinkTxDynamic feature that avoids collisions by buffering transmission data of the data subscriber and sending a (later) scheduling request (SR) for a grant for that data. A DSDA UE may regulate data subscriber transmissions to avoid a transmission duration for the voice subscriber. A DSDA UE may reduce certain transmissions for a voice subscriber (subject to a block error rate (BLER) threshold for the voice subscriber) to lower the probability of collision. A DSDA UE may operate a data subscriber and a voice subscriber in the same cell to avoid collisions due to RF tuning and/or relative slot overlap.
