Abstract: An approach to optimize performance for large scale inference models. Data in the form of images is received from sensors such as cameras. The data is processed to generate data tags associated with the context of the image and portion the images. Model tags are generated based on data characteristics or user input. The tags and their associated data are added to a time-based queue for delivery to the appropriate inference models. Based on the embedded delivery time and frequency, the portioned images are delivered to the appropriate inference models.

Abstract: A notification center system receives a message from a message source, the message comprising a message body, the message body comprising parameter-value pairs. The notification center system processes the message body to obtain a contextual string from the parameter-value pairs, appends a source identifier to the message, the source identifier identifying the message source, and stores the message appended with the source identifier in a platform-neutral format in a message store. Utilizing the contextual string, the message is then grouped, with other message(s) or by itself, with a message thread. The message is provided to a delivery mechanism for presentation of the message under the message thread. Content-aware contextual visual indicators may be determined for the message thread and the message based on different orders of specificity. The message thread and the message can then be displayed with their corresponding content-aware contextual visual indicators to provide additional insights.
