In some embodiments, a method includes storing data associated with fungible assets in a distributed ledger database. The method includes dividing fungible tokens into a first set of groups of fungible tokens based on the data and sending, via the distributed ledger-based network and based on an asymmetric cryptography key pair, each group of fungible tokens from the first set of groups of fungible tokens to a communication device from the first set of communication devices to cause the second plurality of communication devices to send, to a designated recipient communication device, non-fungible tokens for each group of fungible tokens from the second set of groups of fungible tokens. The first set of groups of fungible tokens is divided into a second set of groups of fungible tokens and received at a second set of communication devices.

Systems, apparatus and methods for identifying and securely storing distinguishing characteristics in a distributed ledger within a distributed ledger-based network based on fungible and non-fungible tokens

A method includes generating, via a processor, a bill of materials (BOM) representation associated with a BOM indicating at least one good and including a representation of a plurality of dependencies to qualify the at least one good for at least one of a regulatory claim, a duty benefit claim or an admissibility claim. A smart contract code for a compliance declaration smart contrast that references the BOM representation is transmitted via the processor and to a distributed ledger. A representation of the plurality of assertion token is received, via the processor, from a plurality of remote compute devices, and in response to deploying the compliance declaration smart contract. A compliance declaration token is minted, via the processor, in response to receiving the representation of a plurality of assertion tokens and based on the compliance declaration smart contract.

Intelligent assertion tokens for authenticating and controlling network communications using a distributed ledger

A method for generating and controlling intelligent assertion tokens includes generating a first assertion token, during a first step of a supply chain process. The first assertion token is inspected to determine validity. If the first assertion token is not valid, the receipt of the first assertion token is rejected. If the first assertion token is determined to be valid, the use of the first assertion token in further transmissions and/or transactions is authorized. The first assertion token can be passed to a second step of the supply chain process, and a second assertion token may be generated based on the first assertion token. Upon receipt of the second assertion token, it is inspected to determine validity. If not valid, the transmission and/or transfer of the second assertion token is rejected. If valid, the transmission and/or transfer of the second assertion token to a further step of the supply chain process or to a customer is authorized.

Embodiments relate to display of visual content on a client device using server-side rasterization of visual content. According to some embodiments, visual content is rendered on a server system, transformed into bitmaps compatible with the display attributes of a client device, and transmitted for display on the client device. The server system can perform, in effect, as a remote browser for displaying Web pages, e-mail, e-mail attachments, electronic document and forms, database queries and results, drawings, presentations, images at the client device, and so on. The approach can be 'remote' because the server does the rendering and the client provides the interface; 'multi-level' because rendered visual content is represented as a multi-level set of raster representations; and constitutes a &#x201c;browsing system&#x201d; because the client and server share data about the source visual content element being browsed, and the client performs a specific browsing function assisted by the server.

Visual content browsing using rasterized representations

The present invention relates to display of visual content on a client device using server-side rasterization of visual content. Visual content is rendered on a server system, transformed into bitmaps compatible with the display attributes of a client device, and transmitted for display on the client device. The invention allows the server to perform, in effect, as a remote browser for displaying Web pages, e-mail, e-mail attachments, electronic document and forms, database queries and results, drawings, presentations, and images at the client device. The approach is &ldquo;remote&rdquo; because the server does the rendering and the client provides the interface; &ldquo;multi-level&rdquo; because rendered visual content is represented as a multi-level set of raster representations; and constitutes a &ldquo;browsing system&rdquo; because the client and server share data about the source visual content element being browsed, and the client performs a specific browsing function assisted by the server.

A technique for representing a visual scene as a directed acyclic graph of data and operators that generates a sequence of image frames over specified time intervals. The graph specifies temporal and spatial values for associated visual elements of the scene. Time is modeled in the inheritance properties explicitly defined within the scene graph hierarchy, by assigning temporal attributes to each media element. Branch nodes of the graph specify transforms for the temporal and spatial coordinate systems. To evaluate the appearance or behavior of the scene and in particular the global time values of particular elements at a given time instant, the graph is traversed in a direction from a root node down toward the leaf nodes, thereby causing temporal transformations specified along the branches of the graph to modify time parameters of the scene data at the nodes. Child nodes are preferably evaluated after being transformed, to determine the extent to which they contribute the data to the final scene. Temporal transformations may include translation operations that offset temporal event times; scaling operations that change the rate at which time passes; or clipping operations, that restrict the range of time parameters to exclude the evaluation of parts of the graph.

Time inheritance scene graph for representation of media content

A technique for displaying a visual representation of an estimated three-dimensional scene structure and the values of various parameters associated with the scene, together with a visual representation of at least one two-dimensional image used in the scene structure estimation algorithm. A user inputs information by adjusting parameters and/or specifying an element or region of the visual representations and supplies mark-ups and other information such as attributes for the element or region to be applied during a next iteration of the scene structure estimation algorithm. The scene structure estimation algorithm is then re-executed and the process repeats until the user is satisfied with the resulting visual scene structure.

Computer assisted mark-up and parameterization for scene analysis

An integrated media production technique for refining a finish quality media content. The technique permits a media production to be defined as a computerized choreography model of a virtual stage containing data objects representing live/recorded image elements as well as synthetic-abstract elements and multiple versions thereof. Elements of the choreography model are iteratively rendered, blended, adjusted, and selected until a desired quality result is achieved.

Iterative three-dimensional process for creating finished media content

A technique for converging upon a computer-based model of a real world or synthetic scene. The computer model makes use of abstraction-based data objects as well as image-based data objects. A correlation mesh provides links between related image-based and abstraction-based objects. An initial step in a process analyzes an input image stream and user inputs to derive initial image-based objects and abstraction-based objects for the scene model. Subsequent steps in the process allow user inputs to refine the image-based objects, abstraction-based objects and/or the correlation mesh. As a result, refinements to the image-based object model of the scene can improve the abstraction-based model of the scene, and refinements to the abstraction-based object model can improve the image-based model.

Adaptive modeling and segmentation of visual image streams

In a media production system, two-dimensional images captured from physical objects are analyzed to create three-dimensional representations of the physical objects within a virtual stage. Representations of physical and synthetic objects are manipulated and choreographed in the virtual stage within an integrated system which also generates a media product in the form of a two-dimensional image stream of the physical and synthetic objects with optional synchronized audio tracks. A correlation is maintained between object models in the virtual stage and the original two-dimensional images so that information from those images can be included in the final product. To facilitate direction of combined media products, a composite display of the three-dimensional virtual stage and a two-dimensional preview are provided. Also provided are a score display providing temporal representations of elements within the scene and an object catalog of object oriented representations of elements within the scene.

Media production with correlation of image stream and abstract objects

A computer system, having a graphical user interface for authoring and playing a multimedia presentation having one or more multimedia events, displays a representation of a story, including a representation of a start position, indicating the beginning of the multimedia presentation, a representation of an end position, indicating the end of the multimedia presentation, and a representation of a unidirectional path line connecting the start position and the end positions. The representation of at least one icon, associated with a source of multimedia material, may be linked to the path line. The link, called a call spot, represents a call to the multimedia, allowing icons to be shared by many presentations or to be shown at different times in the same presentation. The multimedia presentation starts at the start position, plays the multimedia material represented by the at least one icon, and then continues along the unidirectional path line and completes at the end position.
