Abstract: Techniques for performing centralized unsuperivised learning in a multi-domain system are described. A user may request labeled data for an ML task, where the request includes a prompt for obtaining relevant explicit user feedback. The system may use the prompt to collect explicit user feedback for relevant runtime user inputs. After a duration of time (in the user's request for labeled data) has elapsed, the system determines whether collected user feedback indicates processing of the user input was defective and, if so, determines a cause of the defective processing. The system then uses one or more label generators to generate labeled data using the collected user feedback, whether the processing was defective, and the determined defect cause.

Abstract: A composite shoe sole having an outsole which is made of rubber, plastic or thermoplastic rubber (TPR), and a plurality of small pieces of fabrics filled inside the outsole; the outsole and the plurality of small pieces of fabrics are injection-molded and integrally formed. A method of making the composite shoe sole is also disclosed. The composite shoe sole allows the shoe sole to have good flex resistance when flexed thanks to the small pieces of fabrics filled inside the outsole. The small pieces of fabrics also provide good puncture resistance to the shoe sole, thus increasing the usage life of the shoe sole. Also, the shoe sole is lighter and cost is reduced. When transparent material is used for making the outsole, the small pieces of fabrics inside the outsole can render the whole shoe sole a visual effect different from conventional shoe soles.

Abstract: A method for modeling power usage within a macrogrid uses data relating to the behavioral patterns and states (“BA”) of the users, data relating to external impacts on power usage and disaggregated power consumption data in at least one premises within the macrogrid (forming “power usage model data”) and thereafter a method of forecasting and predicting future power requirements within the macrogrid uses such power usage model data.

Abstract: Power consumption related data for the power source supplying an entire household or other group of appliances is captured at a relatively high data rate. The raw data is analyzed to remove redundancy and to identify pertinent features, and then the more informative of these features are then selected. The analysis and selection of features are pre-processing tasks that are performed on-site, on the same piece of hardware that acquires the raw data and transmits the pre-processed data to the server. By transmitting selective data to a remote server, only a low bandwidth is required for the transmission.

Abstract: Program partitioning of an application can include creating execution flow graphs and static flow graphs of targeted functions or operations of the application. Based on the execution flow graphs or static flow graphs, replay interfaces are created. The replay interfaces provide data flows that are usable in re-execution of the application during program development.

Abstract: Analyzing and detecting soft hang program errors may lead to suggestions for either curing the programming errors at runtime or refactoring the source code. For instance, responsive function invocation patterns and blocking function invocation patterns may be used to detect soft hang program errors in a source code file. Deductive database rules may be compiled from the responsive and blocking function invocation patterns to find matching function invocations in a call graph.
