摘要:
A system for generating soft copy (digital) versions of hard copy documents uses images of the hard copy documents. The images may be captured using a device suitable for capturing images, like a camera phone. Once available, the images may be processed to improve their suitability for document generation. The images may then be processed to recognize and generate soft copy versions of the documents represented by the images.

Various embodiments provide techniques for inventory clustering. In one or more embodiments, a set of inventory to be processed is placed into an initial cluster. The inventory can be related to impressions for advertising that are defined by values for a set of attributes. Recursive division of the initial cluster is performed by selecting an attribute and deriving child clusters that are constrained by one or more values of the attributes in accordance with one or more clustering algorithms. The clustering algorithms are configured to derive an optimum number of clusters by repetitively generating smaller child clusters and measuring a cost associated with adding additional clusters. Additional child clusters can be formed in this manner until the measured cost to add more clusters outweighs a benefit of adding more clusters.

Various embodiments provide techniques for graph clustering. In one or more embodiments, a participation graph is obtained that represents relationships between entities. An auxiliary graph is constructed based on the participation graph. The auxiliary graph may be constructed such that the auxiliary graph is less dense than the participation graph and is therefore computationally less complex to analyze. Clusters in the auxiliary graph are determined by solving an objective function defined for the auxiliary graph. Clusters determined for the auxiliary graph may then be utilized to ascertain clusters in the participation graph that solve a related objective function defined for the participation graph.

Distributed computing devices comprising a system for sharing computing resources can provide shared computing resources to users having sufficient resource credits. A user can earn resource credits by reliably offering a computing resource for sharing for a predetermined amount of time. The conversion rate between the amount of credits awarded, and the computing resources provided by a user can be varied to maintain balance within the system, and to foster beneficial user behavior. Once earned, the credits can be used to fund the user's account, joint accounts which include the user and others, or others' accounts that do not provide any access to the user. Computing resources can be exchanged on a peer-to-peer basis, though a centralized mechanism can link relevant peers together. To verify integrity, and protect against maliciousness, offered resources can be periodically tested.

A data processing system for data exchange across application boundaries is provided. The system includes a canvas memory in which to open multiple applications. A transform component generates data structures across the canvas memory in at least one application form and automatically transforms the data structures to at least one other application form to mitigate application boundaries between disparate applications.
摘要:
Structured and/or unstructured data is processed with the aid of a data model. The data model provides a conceptual description of source content that can be generated or otherwise modified automatically as a function of data, models, and/or structure associated with the data. Both structured and unstructured data can be viewed in terms of high-level content rather than a lower level physical model. Among other things, this view can be employed to aid search as well as data sharing.

A system and method for processing machine learning techniques (such as neural networks) and other non-graphics applications using a graphics processing unit (GPU) to accelerate and optimize the processing. The system and method transfers an architecture that can be used for a wide variety of machine learning techniques from the CPU to the GPU. The transfer of processing to the GPU is accomplished using several novel techniques that overcome the limitations and work well within the framework of the GPU architecture. With these limitations overcome, machine learning techniques are particularly well suited for processing on the GPU because the GPU is typically much more powerful than the typical CPU. Moreover, similar to graphics processing, processing of machine learning techniques involves problems with solving non-trivial solutions and large amounts of data.
