    Abstract: A method for overlapping spectrum amplification includes receiving an optical signal and splitting the optical signal into a first split signal having a first wavelength band and a second split signal having a second wavelength band. The splitting results in a band gap between the first wavelength band and the second wavelength band. The method further includes delaying the first split signal by a threshold period of time relative to the second split signal and combining the first split signal and the second split signal, resulting in a combined signal having the first wavelength band and the second wavelength band without the band gap therebetween. The path difference between the first split signal along the first signal path and the second split signal along the second signal path is within a threshold multipath interference compensation range.

    Abstract: Restoring a degraded frame resulting from reconstruction of a source frame is described. A method includes generating, using first restoration parameters, a first guide tile for a degraded tile of the degraded frame, determining a projection parameter for a projection operation, and encoding, in an encoded bitstream, the first restoration parameters and the projection parameter. The projection operation relates differences between a source tile of the source frame and the degraded tile to differences between the first guide tile and the degraded tile.

    Abstract: A video content item may be provided to a user in a first area of a graphical user interface (GUI). Related video content items may be provided in a second area of the GUI. A selection of a control element provided in the GUI may be received where the selection of the control element indicates that the user is interested in an audio component that is included in the provided video content item. In response to receiving the selection of the control element, different versions of the audio component that are included in different video content items may be identified and the second area of the GUI may be modified to prioritize a presentation of at least one of the different video content items that includes a respective different version of the audio component over a presentation of the related video content items in the second area of the GUI.

    Abstract: A content delivery provider may stream an application to each of a plurality of computing devices. The content delivery provider may transmit an offer to download the application to each of the plurality of computing devices, after a first initial display interval. The provider may receive a number of positive user interactions with the offer after the first initial display interval, and a total number of positive user interactions with the offer. The provider may automatically adjust the initial display interval by a factor proportional to a desired first-display quantile divided by the number of positive user interactions after the first initial display interval. The application may be streamed to a second computing device, and the offer to download the application transmitted to the second computing device, after the adjusted initial display interval.

    Abstract: Authenticating users comprises a computing device that receives a manual authentication input of a user and initiates a first user session between the user and the user computing device. The device communicates a request for a first user authorization data from an authentication technology associated with the one or more computing devices and receives the first user authentication data. The user or the device terminates the first user session and subsequently receives an input of the user to initiate a second user session. The device communicates a request for second user authentication data from the authentication technology and compares the first user authentication data and the second user authentication data. The device identifies a match of one or more features of the first user authentication data and one or more features of the second user authentication data and authorizes the user to conduct the second user session.
