Abstract: A server can receive a seed keyword to generate additional keywords relevant to the seed keyword. The server can identify, using a semantic relationship graph, keyword categories. Each keyword can have a semantic distance from the seed keyword less than a threshold. The server can generate, for each keyword of the keyword categories, a keyword-seed affinity score based on a frequency of the keyword occurring with the seed keyword on an information resource. The server can determine, for each keyword category, a category-seed affinity score based on the keyword-seed affinity scores for each of keyword in the keyword category. The server can compare each category-seed affinity score a threshold. The server can transmit, for display, the keywords. One keyword category can be indicated as selected and another keyword category can be indicated as unselected based on the comparison.

Abstract: A method for video coding, executable by a processor, includes receiving video data, determining a directionality of a sample block of the received video data, the directionality corresponding to a descriptor, applying a geometric transformation in which filter coefficients of a cross-component filter or reconstructed samples in a filter support region are rotated by a first amount based on the directionality being a first direction and rotated by a second amount based on the directionality being a second direction different from the first direction, and decoding the video data based on the applied geometric transformation.

Abstract: A method for processing data exactly once using transactional stream writes includes receiving, from a client, a batch of data blocks for storage on memory hardware in communication with the data processing hardware. The batch of data blocks is associated with a corresponding sequence number and represents a number of rows of a table stored on the memory hardware. The method also includes partitioning the batch of data blocks into a plurality of sub-batches of data blocks. For each sub-batch of data blocks, the method further includes assigning the sub-batch of data blocks to a buffered stream; writing, using the assigned buffered stream, the sub-batch of data blocks to the memory hardware; updating a storage log with an intent to commit the sub-batch of data blocks using the assigned buffered stream; and committing the sub-batch of data blocks to the memory hardware.

Abstract: A method of communicating over a plurality of network slices concurrently. The method comprises building a distributed ledger by a network slice registrar function (NSRF) application executing on a computer, where the distributed ledger records an association between a first network slice allocated to a user equipment (UE) and a second network slice allocated to the UE, providing information about the association of the UE to the first network slice and the second network slice by the NSRF application to a network slice selector function (NSSF), establishing a first communication link between the UE and a first call end point via the first network slice by a first user plane function (UPF) and establishing a second communication link between the UE and a second call end point via the second network slice by a second UPF based on the information provided by the NSRF application to the NSSF.

Abstract: In one implementation, a wireless communications terminal includes a multi-element antenna. In addition, the terminal includes preliminary signal combiners to combine received signals output by corresponding pairs of antenna elements. For each preliminary signal combiner, the signal output by a first of the pair of elements provides a model of interference present in the received signal output by the second of the pair of elements. The preliminary signal combiner is configured to combine the signal output by the first element with the signal output by the second element to produce an initial interference-mitigated signal.

Abstract: An apparatus that is ?m- or nm-scale in size and can include integrated circuitry logic based on sub 10 nm SIA transistor nodes, a sensing subsystem, a deciding subsystem, an effecting subsystem, and a power harvesting system is described. The sensing subsystem can identify pathogenic entities, including disease associated cells (for example, cancer cells, autoimmune cells, or pathological microbes) or viruses. The sensing subsystem can include at least one pad constructed of an electrically conductive material and linkers attached to the at least one pad. Each linker can also be attached to a targeting agent (for example, an antibody fragment) or a reference agent. Upon the binding of a targeting agent with an entity of interest, the information is transferred to the logic circuitry, which processes the binding event information and decides whether the entity is disease associated (e.g., a disease associated cell or virus) and requires delivery of therapeutic agents or other treatment.

Abstract: Advanced Distribution Management Systems not generally optimize over the entire feeder because there are few high-fidelity distribution circuit models and real-time distribution-connected sensors are rare. The limited observability at the distribution level makes it difficult to globally optimize distribution operations and issue control setpoints to power systems equipment or Distributed Energy Resources (DER) to perform grid-support services. For example, setpoints can be issued to DER based on results from an optimization module that incorporates a static or time-series feeder simulation. Feeder simulation initial conditions are populated with photovoltaic (PV) and load forecasts, state estimation results, and/or digital twin measurements or state output. The real-time (RT) digital twin runs a model of the feeder to generate state estimation pseudo-measurements since there are limited live feeder measurements.

Abstract: A cooling system partially floods the low temperature low side heat exchangers (e.g., freezers) in the system. An accumulator is positioned between the low temperature low side heat exchangers and the low temperature compressor. The accumulator collects the refrigerant (both liquid and vapor) from the flooded low temperature low side heat exchangers. Refrigerant discharged by the low temperature compressor is fed through the accumulator so that heat can be transferred to the refrigerant collected in the accumulator. As a result, the temperature of the refrigerant discharged by the low temperature compressor drops before that refrigerant reaches the medium temperature compressor.

Abstract: Techniques for managing sequencing requests for storage node operations based on types of operations being sequenced. The techniques manage sequencing requests for different types of operations, such as backup and recovery operations, replication operations, migration operations, and so on, in a manner that avoids overwhelming storage node capacity. The techniques include receiving a sequencing request for an operation of a specified operation type at a request manager of a storage node and determining whether a capacity of the storage node is available for running the operation by a capacity manager for the specified operation type, in which the capacity manager is provided by a storage client and implemented on the storage node separate from the request manager. In this way, throttling, limiting, and/or prioritization requirements of the operation of the specified operation type can be defined by the storage client in a manner agnostic to the request manager.

Abstract: A wireless communication network performs quantum authentication for a wireless User Equipment (UE). In the wireless communication network, quantum circuitry selects polarization states for qubits, generates and transfers the qubits, exchanges cryptography information with edge quantum circuitry, generates cryptography keys based on polarization states and cryptography information, and transfers the cryptography keys to network authentication circuitry. The edge quantum circuitry receives and process the qubits, determines the polarization states for the qubits, exchanges the cryptography information with the network quantum circuitry, generates the cryptography keys based on the polarization states and cryptography information, and transfers the cryptography keys to the wireless UE. The wireless UE generates authentication data based on the cryptography keys and wirelessly transfers the authentication data for delivery to the network authentication circuitry.
