A computer-implemented method includes positioning a sliding window over a string of data and calculating a hash value using a rolling hash function for data encompassed by the sliding window. The method includes determining whether the calculated hash value for the data encompassed by the sliding window matches the value of an element in a cut point candidate (CPC) array by comparing the calculated hash value to the value of a first element in the CPC array. In response to the calculated hash value being equal to the value of the first element in the CPC array, the method includes defining an index of the sliding window as the cutting point for a data block.

Fixed chunk size deduplication with variable-size chunking

A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes: sending one or more instructions to a web crawler to identify presentation videos on the internet and capture video data therefrom. In response, video data which corresponds to various presentation videos on the internet is received from the web crawler. The video data is used to define influence factors, such that different combinations of the influence factors represent different conditions of a presenter in the presentation videos. The video data is also used to define labels, where different combinations of the labels represent different conditions of one or more audience members in the presentation videos. Furthermore, structured data is generated by correlating certain presenter conditions with certain audience conditions, and the structured data is stored in memory.

Interactive virtual simulation system

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for taking photos. According to another embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a system. The system includes an electronic device having a camera. The electronic device is configured to determine an object to be taken by the camera. Then the electronic device is configured to determine at least one shooting parameter for the object based on at least one previous photo related to the object. The electronic device is further configured to cause a setting of the camera to be adjusted based on the at least one shooting parameter. According to a further embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a computer program product. The computer program produce is tangibly stored on a non-transient machine-readable medium and include machine-executable instructions.

Taking personalized photos

Embodiments of the present disclosure allow user experience of photographing to be improved. In operation, it is determined whether a picture composition of a first object and a second object needs to be adjusted based on a predefined composition rule. If the picture composition needs to be adjusted, an adjusting pattern is determined based on the predefined composition rule. Then, the adjusting pattern is provided to a user to indicate the user to adjust the picture composition based on thereon.

Picture composition adjustment

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for determining a security level for accessing a restrictive area. A member that is associated with a restrictive area is determined. A security level for accessing the restrictive area based on data that is collected from a monitoring device associated with the determined member is determined.
