Methods, systems, and computer storage media are provided for data extraction. A target document representation may be generated based on modified text of a target electronic document. A measure of similarity may be determined between the target document representation and a reference document representation, which may be based on modified text of a reference electronic document. Based on the measure of similarity, the reference document representation may be selected. An extraction model associated with the selected reference document representation can then be used to extract data from the target document.

A photoacoustic image evaluation apparatus includes a processor configured to acquire a first photoacoustic image generated at a first point in time and a second photoacoustic image generated at a second point in time before the first point in time, the first and second photoacoustic images being photoacoustic images generated by detecting photoacoustic waves generated inside a subject, who has been subjected to blood vessel regeneration treatment, by emission of light into the subject; acquire a blood vessel regeneration index, which indicates a state of a blood vessel by the regeneration treatment, based on a difference between a blood vessel included in the first photoacoustic image and a blood vessel included in the second photoacoustic image; and display the blood vessel regeneration index on a display.

A system and method for detecting a potential match between a candidate facial image and a dataset of facial images is described. Some implementations of the invention determine whether a candidate facial image (or multiple facial images) of a person taken, for example, at point of entry corresponds to one or more facial images stored in a dataset of persons of interest (e.g., suspects, criminals, terrorists, employees, VIPs, “whales,” etc.). Some implementations of the invention detect potential fraud in a dataset of facial images. In a first form of potential fraud, a same facial image is associated with multiple identities. In a second form of potential fraud, different facial images are associated with a single identity, as in the case, for example, of identity theft. According to various implementations of the invention, spectral clustering techniques are used to determine a likelihood that pairs of facial images (or pairs of facial image sets) correspond to the person or different persons.

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for correlating item data. A system for correlating item data may comprise a memory storing instructions and at least one processor configured to execute instructions to perform operations comprising: receiving reference text data associated with a reference item from a device; receiving reference image data associated with the reference item from the remote device; determining candidate text data and candidate image data associated with at least one candidate item; selecting a text correlation model; determining a first similarity score by applying the text correlation model to the reference text data and the candidate text data; selecting an image correlation model; determining a second similarity score by applying the image correlation model to the reference image data and the candidate image data; calculating a confidence score based on the first and second similarity scores; and performing a responsive action based on the calculated confidence score.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for scalable architectures for reference signature matching and updating. An example method for scalable architectures for reference signature matching and updating includes accessing site signatures to be compared to reference signatures from a first group of media sources. Determining if a first reference node is an owner of a first one of the site signatures. Comparing a neighborhood of site signatures including the first site signature to reference signatures in a first subset of reference signatures when the first reference node is the owner of the first site signature, the first subset of references signatures stored in a first memory partition associated with the first reference node. Not comparing site signature to reference signatures when the first reference node is not the owner of the first one of the site signatures.

A computer-implemented method for visualizing the appearances of at least two materials includes obtaining a first set of appearance attributes, the appearance attributes of the first set being associated with a first material, the first set of appearance attributes comprising measured appearance attributes, obtaining a second set of appearance attributes, the appearance attributes of the second set being associated with a second material; and obtaining a geometric model of at least one virtual object, the geometric model defining a three-dimensional macroscopic surface geometry of the virtual object.
