A recommendation system includes a recommendation model for generating a recommendation score for a user with respect to an item. The model is configured to receive a set of dense features, describing numerical information, and a set of sparse features, representing a subset of items from a relatively large group of items. To represent the subset of items in the sparse features, each item (or a symbol thereof) is processed by an encoder to represent each item with a plurality of positions in a sparse binary representation of the subset of items. The sparse binary representation is then processed by a model that determines a vector representation of the sparse category features used in the prediction in conjunction with the dense features.

Embodiments of systems, apparatuses and methods provide enhanced function as a service (FaaS) to users, e.g., computer developers and cloud service providers (CSPs). A computing system configured to provide such enhanced FaaS service include one or more controls architectural subsystems, software and orchestration subsystems, network and storage subsystems, and security subsystems. The computing system executes functions in response to events triggered by the users in an execution environment provided by the architectural subsystems, which represent an abstraction of execution management and shield the users from the burden of managing the execution. The software and orchestration subsystems allocate computing resources for the function execution by intelligently spinning up and down containers for function code with decreased instantiation latency and increased execution scalability while maintaining secured execution. Furthermore, the computing system enables customers to pay only when their code gets executed with a granular billing down to millisecond increments.

Various embodiments for dynamically generating an advertisement in a video stream are disclosed. In one embodiment, video stream content associated with a video stream for a user device is received. Video analytics data is obtained for the video stream content, which indicates a scene recognized in the video stream content. An advertisement to be generated and inserted into the video stream content is then selected based on the scene recognized in the video stream content, and an advertisement template for generating the selected advertisement is obtained. Video advertisement content corresponding to the advertisement is then generated based on the advertisement template and the video analytics data. The video advertisement content is then inserted into the video stream content, and the modified video stream content is transmitted to the user device.
