International Classification:

G06F 1750

US Classification:

716 10, 716 13, 716 14, 716 12, 716 1

Abstract:

A computer implemented process for the automatic creation of integrated circuit (IC) geometry including a multiple pass process flow using multiple passes of direct timing driven placement after a first pass of non-direct timing driven placement. First, a high level description of the circuit design may be synthesized. Next, a non-direct timing driven placement process may place the design. Then the placed design may be routed. Alternatively, routability may be estimated. After routing, a modified design may be resynthesized. The resynthesized design may then be placed according to a direct timing driven placement process. This sequence may be repeated several times.

International Classification:

H04L 29/08

H04N 21/4363
H04N 21/43

Abstract:

Described are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method, or computer program product embodiments for controlling streaming of media content. An embodiment operates by halting a presentation of future content from a buffer upon determining that the buffer is exhausted of content to present. The embodiment includes receiving one or more packets over a network connection, the one or more packets including media information corresponding to a first portion of streaming media content, in which the first portion corresponds to a second portion of the streaming media content. The one or more packets in a buffer are stored as buffered content. Responsive to determining that the network connection is not experiencing a burst condition, the buffer is trimmed. Then, presentation of buffered content is resumed and the first portion is caused to be presented in sync with the second portion.

Abstract:

System, method, and computer product embodiments for controlling a display device's display settings from a computing device's touch-based user interface are described. In an embodiment, the computing device establishes a wireless connectivity with the display device. The computing device sends a command generated to query information related to the display setting. Then, the computing device receives the queried information from the display device. The computing device configures a graphical user interface (GUI) with the queried information to display configurations of the display settings on the touchscreen. The configurations include the display settings currently configured in the display device. The computing device further enables, within GUI, a displayed configuration from the display configurations to be calibrated by one or more touch gestures on the touchscreen.

International Classification:

G06N 20/00
G06N 5/04

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method of performing machine vision prediction of digital images using synthetically generated training assets comprises digitally capturing a plurality of assets; configuring each of the assets in the plurality of assets with a plurality of asset attributes; under computer program control, selecting a plurality of different combinations of parameters from among the plurality of asset attributes, and creating a plurality of sets of different synthetic dataset parameters; using computer graphics software, and example parameter values from among the synthetic dataset parameters, creating a synthetic dataset by compiling from a plurality of example images and metadata; configuring a plurality of machine learning trials and executing the trials to train a machine vision model, resulting in creating and storing a trained machine vision model; executing a validation of the trained machine vision model; and inferring a prediction using the trained machine vision model. Trained models are scored against success criteria and re-trained using pseudo-random sampling of different parameters clustered around failure points. As a result, machine vision models may be trained with high accuracy using large datasets of synthesized digital images that are richly parameterized, rather than human captured digital images.

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for flexible output of streaming media. An embodiment operates by receiving, at a media server, media over a network. Output media, corresponding to the received media, is streamed to a display device. The output media includes a video component and an audio component. A command is received. Responsive to the command, the streaming of the video component to the display device is discontinued. A streaming of the video component is begun to a mobile device at a point in the video component corresponding where the video was discontinued.

Abstract:

System, method, and computer product embodiments for efficiently casting interactively-controlled visual content displayed on a first display screen to a second display screen. In an embodiment, the computing device sends the visual content displayed on the first display screen to a multimedia device for displaying on the second display screen. Upon receipt of an instruction that visually manipulates how the visual content is displayed on the first display screen, the computing device generates a command representative of the received instruction. The command may specify a positional relationship between the center of the first display screen and the visual content displayed on the first display screen. Then, the computing devices sends the command to the multimedia device that causes the second display screen to display the visual content according to the positional relationship.
