In one embodiment, a method includes, by an electromagnetic device, accessing multiple previously recorded heating maps corresponding to a load disposed inside a cavity, where each heating map indicates a temperature profile change of the load as a function of one or more control parameter configurations, accessing a target temperature profile of the load, measuring a current temperature profile of the load, calculating a difference in temperature profiles between the current temperature profile of the load and the target temperature profile of the load, determining a first sequence of control parameter configurations to heat the load, wherein the first sequence is optimized to yield a temperature rise that achieves the target temperature profile of the load, emitting electromagnetic radiation into the cavity based on the first sequence of control parameter configurations.

In one embodiment, a method includes maintaining a video communication between client devices with each being associated with a respective video stream, which is associated with a respective match scale measured based on a height of frames of the video stream and a depth of subjects within the frames, determining a respective scaling factor and cropping for each video stream, wherein the respective scaling factor is calculated based on the match scale associated with the corresponding video stream and a target match scale determined from the match scales associated with all video streams, and wherein the respective cropping is determined based on a uniformity of positions of the subjects within the frames across all video streams, generating a merged video stream from each video stream based on the respective scaling factor and cropping, and sending instructions for presenting the merged video stream to one or more of the client devices.

In one embodiment, a method includes maintaining a video communication between two or more client devices with each client device comprising cameras and being associated with a respective video stream in the video communication, determining scene data within a field of view in a real-world environment captured by one or more of the cameras of a first client device of the two or more client devices, determining a privacy filter to apply to a first video stream associated with the first client device based on the scene data, and providing instructions to apply the privacy filter to the first video stream in the video communication.

In one embodiment, a method includes, by an electronic device, accessing activity data containing one or more non-image-based sensor signals from a first wearable device, where the activity data corresponds to an activity a user performs during a first timeframe, accessing from a first camera device, one or more cameras of the first camera device, where the video data corresponds to the first activity of the first user during the first timeframe, segmenting the activity data based on one or more features of the one or more non-image-based sensor signals to identify one or more segments of activity data corresponding to a second timeframe, classifying the one or more segments of the video data based on the one or more identified events associated with the first activity during the second timeframe, classifying the segments of the video data based on the one or more events during the second timeframe.

In one embodiment, a method includes accessing real-time content captured by a first user's client device, where the real-time content is captured at a first high quality and is one of a plurality of content frames in a real-time stream of content. The method includes downgrading the quality of the real-time content to a second lower quality for transmission to a second user and transmitting the downgraded content to the second user. The method includes determining, based on a request made by the second user, an area of interest of a subsequent real-time image, where the subsequent real-time image is at the first high quality, modifying the subsequent real-time image to focus on the area of interest, where the modified subsequent real-time image is at the first high quality, and downgrading and transmitting the modified subsequent real-time image for to the second user.
