Embodiments of the present disclosure present devices, methods, and computer readable medium for techniques for creating machine learning models. Application developers can select a machine learning template from a plurality of templates appropriate for the type of data used in their application. Templates can include multiple templates for classification of images, text, sound, motion, and tabular data. A graphical user interface allows for intuitive selection of training data, validation data, and integration of the trained model into the application. The techniques further display a numerical score for both the training accuracy and validation accuracy using the test data. The application provides a live mode that allows for execution of the machine learning model on a mobile device to allow for testing the model from data from one or more of the sensors (i.e., camera or microphone) on the mobile device.

Techniques for machine language model creation

A technique for downgrading applications to placeholder applications in order to free up storage space in a user device. Based on a variety of heuristics, a number of installed applications are identified as candidates for a downgrade. The downgrading of the identified applications involves creating a placeholder application for each of the identified applications. The identified applications are temporarily deleted while keeping the user data associated with the identified applications intact and the placeholder applications are installed.

System and method for downgrading applications

Disclosed herein is a technique for downgrading applications to placeholder applications in order to free up storage space in a user device. Based on a variety of heuristics, a number of installed applications are identified as candidates for a downgrade. The downgrading of the identified applications involves creating a placeholder application for each of the identified applications. The identified applications are temporarily deleted while keeping the user data associated with the applications intact and the placeholder applications are installed.

In an example method, a user interface is presented by a device on a touch sensitive surface of the device. The device presents a keyboard image on a touch sensitive surface of the device. The device then receives a first touch input selecting a key of the keyboard image and responsive to receiving the first touch input, displays a primary character associated with the selected key. While maintenance of physical contact is detected by the touch sensitive surface, the device receives a touch gesture starting at the key of the keyboard image and continuing in a diagonal direction along a face of the key. Responsive to receiving the touch gesture, the device displays an alternative character associated with the selected key.

Touch-based interactive learning environment

In an example method, a user interface is presented by a device on a touch sensitive surface of the device. The user interface includes a first portion for displaying a sequence of code and a second portion for displaying suggested bracketed functions. The device receives a first touch gesture dragging a suggested bracketed function from the second portion to the first portion of the user interface. Responsive to receiving the first touch gesture, the suggested bracketed function is inserted into the sequence of code. The bracketed function encloses at least a portion of the sequence of code. The device receives a second touch gesture dragging an end bracket associated with the inserted bracketed function. Responsive to receiving the second touch gesture, the sequence of code is modified such that the bracketed function encloses an additional portion of the sequence of code.

In an example method, a user interface is presented by a device on a touch sensitive surface of the device. The device receives a first touch input selecting a numeral presented in the user interface. Responsive to receiving the first touch input, a numeric keypad interface and a display element are presented. The device receives a second touch input selecting the display element. Responsive to receiving the second touch input, a rotary interface including the display element is presented. While the user is maintaining physical contact with the touch sensitive surface, the device receives a rotational touch gesture dragging the display element about the rotary interface. Responsive to receiving the rotational touch gesture, the numeral is modified.

A method and an apparatus for an application thinning mechanism are described. The thinning mechanism can select a subset of components from a universal application to assemble an application variant to be distributed and installed to a specific type of devices. The universal application may include every component, such as asset, resource or executable, built/developed for targeted device attributes to install one common application to multiple devices. For example, the thinning mechanism can use a trait vector associated with a type of devices to iterate through the components and identify assets to be included or packaged into in each target device specific application or application variant.

Capability attributes based application packaging

Debugging a graphics application executing on a target device. The graphics application may execute CPU instructions to generate graphics commands to graphics hardware for generation of graphics on a display. A breakpoint for the graphics application may be detected at a first time. In response to detecting the breakpoint, one or more graphics commands which were executed by the graphics hardware proximate to the first time may be displayed. Additionally, source code corresponding to CPU instructions which generated the one or more graphics commands may be displayed.
