    Abstract: Method and systems are provided for displaying playback zone representations in a controller interface for a media playback system. A representation of a first playback zone in the media playback system may be displayed according to a collapsed format, and a representation of a second playback zone in the media playback system may be displayed in a position directly below the representation of the first playback zone. Upon determining that the first playback zone is associated with media content, an updated representation of the first playback zone may be displayed according to an expanded format that is larger than the collapsed format. The representation of the second playback zone may then be displayed in a position directly below the updated representation of the first playback zone.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for adding audio content to a playback queue. In one example, a method involves receiving a request to add automated streaming audio content to a particular playback position in a playback queue. The playback queue may indicate a plurality of audio content and a corresponding playback position associated with each of the plurality of audio content for playback. The method further involves determining a playback duration for the automated streaming audio content, adding the automated streaming audio content to the playback queue at the particular playback position, and causing the automated streaming audio content to be rendered at the particular playback position in the playback queue for the determined playback duration. The automated streaming audio content may include discrete automated streaming audio content and/or continuous automated streaming audio content. Respective examples for adding discrete and continuous automated streaming audio content are also provided.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for playback of audio content in an “audition mode.” A system may be providing audio content to be rendered by a group of playback devices, when receiving a request to audition a second audio content with at least one playback device from the group of playback devices. The system may then suspend rendering of the first audio content at the at least one playback device, and provide the second audio content to be rendered by the at least one playback device for a duration of time. Upon exiting audition mode, either by completion of the second audio content, expiration of the duration of time, or request to exit audition mode, the system may resume rendering of the first audio content by the at least one playback device.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a new method and system for detection and removal of rain from video using temporal/spatiotemporal properties. Advantageously, the temporal/spatiotemporal properties are involved to separate the rain pixels from the non-rain pixels. It is thus possible by way of the present invention to involve less number of consecutive frames, reducing the buffer size and delay. It works only on the intensity plane which reduces the complexity and execution time significantly along with accurate rain detection. This new technique does not assume the shape, size and velocity of the raindrops which makes it robust to different rain conditions. This method reduces the buffer size which reduces the system cost, delay and power consumption while maintaining sufficient quality of rain detection.

    Abstract: The invention discloses a method and a system for optimizing address generation for simultaneously running proximity-based Built-In-Self-Test (BIST) algorithms. The method also describes simultaneously testing proximity-based faults for different memories having column multiplexers of different sizes using the BIST algorithms. The system described above may be embodied in the form of a Built-In-Self-Test (BIST) controller. Further, the method includes selecting a memory having the largest size of column multiplexer (CMmax). After selecting the memory, size of an address-width register is extended to form an extended address-width register. Thereafter, an extended width address is generated using the extended address-width register and the extended width address is used to generate addresses for the memories. After generating the addresses, read and write operations are performed on the memories based on pre-defined rules, wherein the read and write operations provide testing of the memories.

    Abstract: Learning to, and detecting spam messages using a multi-stage combination of probability calculations based on individual and aggregate training sets of previously identified messages. During a preliminary phase, classifiers are trained, lower and upper limit probabilities, and a combined probability threshold are iteratively determined using a multi-stage combination of probability calculations based on minor and major subsets of messages previously categorized as valid or spam. During a live phase, a first stage classifier uses only a particular subset, and a second stage classifier uses a master set of previously categorized messages. If a newly received message can not be categorized with certainty by the first stage classifier, and a computed first stage probability is within the previously determined lower and upper limits, first and second stage probabilities are combined. If the combined probability is greater than the previously determined combined probability threshold, the received message is marked as spam.
