Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a method for providing interactive notification elements. A device receives a first message and displays a first notification element in a first area of a user interface. The first notification element includes information about the received first message. While displaying the first notification element, the device receives a second message. In response, the device determines whether the second message is associated with the first message. In accordance with a determination that the second message is not associated with the first message, the device delays displaying a second notification element for the second message until the first notification element has been dismissed.

Abstract: Methods and systems that train a neural network to classify inputs using a first set of labeled inputs corresponding to a source domain and adapt that neural network to classify inputs from another domain. The neural network includes a generator network and two or more classifier networks. The generator network is trained to receive inputs and generate features. The two or more classifier networks are trained to classify those features into classes to obtain class probability predictions. The neural network is adapted to a target domain, for example, by training the classifier networks to maximize a Wasserstein distance-based discrepancy between the class probability predictions of the classifier networks, by training the classifier networks to increase Wasserstein distance-based discrepancy or by training the generator network to minimize the Wasserstein distance-based discrepancy between the class probability predictions of the multiple classifier networks, or both.

Abstract: A data processing system can use a method of fine-grained address space layout randomization to mitigate the system's vulnerability to return oriented programming security exploits. The randomization can occur at the sub-segment level by randomizing clumps of virtual memory pages. The randomized virtual memory can be presented to processes executing on the system. The mapping between memory spaces can be obfuscated using several obfuscation techniques to prevent the reverse engineering of the shuffled virtual memory mapping.

Abstract: An audio system and a method of using the audio system to determine an interaural head-related transfer function (HRTF) parameter, are described. The audio system can generate binaural recordings using microphones that are worn by a user in everyday scenarios. The audio system can measure interaural parameter values of selected segments of the recordings, and the measurements can be accumulated over time. The interaural HRTF parameter can be estimated based on the measurements. The interaural HRTF parameter can be used to adapt a generic HRTF to generate an individualized HRTF for the user. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

Abstract: An inductive power transmitter is provided that includes a power transmitting coil which includes transmission circuitry coupled to the power transmitting coil. The inductive power transmitter is configured to produce an inductive power transfer (IPT) signal having an IPT power so that the power transmitting coil generates an IPT field to transfer wireless power to a power receiving coil of an inductive power receiver. The inductive power transmitter includes detection circuitry coupled to the transmission circuitry and is configured to detect one or more indications of a magnetic field strength of a leakage IPT field. The inductive power transmitter includes control circuitry configured to control the transmission circuitry while the transmission circuitry is increasing the IPT power towards a charge level sufficient to charge a battery associated with the inductive power receiver at a target charge rate.

Abstract: A digital phase-locked loop has a digitally controlled oscillator with a first coarse tuning field for coarse tuning of the oscillator frequency, a second coarse tuning field for tuning of the oscillator frequency at finer intervals than the first coarse tuning field, and a fine tuning field for tuning the oscillator to an output frequency at finer intervals than the second coarse tuning field. The second coarse tuning field provides open loop tuning and is linear and connected parallel to the first coarse tuning field. The second coarse tuning field provides wide field temperature compensation and frequency error determination at start up based on an interpolated frequency value obtained prior to start up. Faster settling is provided with less complex algorithms.

By using the mirrors to reflect the light, the cameras' entrance pupils are imaged to a location closer to a user's eyes to thus achieve a more accurate representation of the perspective of the user.

Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, a computing device is described. In response to receiving an input corresponding to a first gesture, the device determines an updated location for an object selection indicator within a user interface in accordance with the first gesture. In accordance with a determination that the updated location is within a portion of the user interface that corresponds to a predefined region of the display, the device sends instructions to the display for moving the object selection indicator to the updated location without scrolling the user interface. In accordance with a determination that the updated location is outside of the portion of the user interface, the device sends instructions to the display for moving the object selection indicator to the updated location and scrolling the user interface so as to display the updated location within the predefined region.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method is performed at a device with a processor, non-transitory memory, and an event camera including pixel sensors distributed across an area. The method includes converting an event stream from a pixel sensor over a first time period into event frames by dividing the first time period into sub-periods, and binning pixel events of the event stream, where each of the sub-periods is associated with a frame sub-period identifier. The method further includes addressing the pixel sensors by sub-dividing the area into tiles, where each of the tiles includes a grouping of the pixel sensors, and a tile address of a particular pixel sensor is a combination of a tile identifier and a position locator of the particular pixel sensor. The method further includes encoding the pixel events as a function of a tile address, a frame sub-period identifier, and a brightness indicator value.

Abstract: The described embodiments set forth techniques for preserving clone relationships between files at a computing device. In particular, the techniques involve identifying clone relationships between files in conjunction with performing operations on the files where it can be beneficial to preserve the clone relationships. The operations can include, for example, preserving clone relationships between files that are being copied from a source storage device (that supports file cloning) to a destination storage device that supports file cloning. Additionally, the operations can include preserving clone relationships when backing up and restoring files between a source storage device (that supports file cloning) and a destination storage device that does not support file cloning. In this manner, the various benefits afforded by the clone relationships between files can be retained even as the files are propagated to destination storage devices that may or may not support file cloning.

Abstract: A head-mounted device can be operated with another device and/or object for which information is gathered to facilitate visual display of a representation thereof. An object can be provided with indicators that allow a head-mounted device to determine both an identity and a characteristic (e.g., position, orientation, distance, etc.) of the object. Additionally or alternatively, the head-mounted device can determine both an identity and a characteristic (e.g., position, orientation, distance, etc.) of an electronic device attached to an object for producing a virtual representation of the object. Additionally or alternatively, the head-mounted device can receive data from an electronic device attached to an object for producing a virtual representation of the object. The virtual representation of the object can resemble the physical object, even where the object itself is not independently analyzed.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for facilitating disabling an alarm in response to particular types of activity-indicative data. More specifically, activity-indicative data (e.g., sensor data or input(s) can be detected prior to a preset alarm time. Upon determining, based on the activity-indicative data, that a wakefulness condition is satisfied (e.g., that the activity-indicative data corresponds to one or more predefined characteristics), a disablement query can be displayed that includes an option to disable the alarm. In response to detecting a selection of the option, the alarm can be disabled such that the alarm stimuli is not to be presented at the preset alarm time.

Abstract: Time-based events and other metadata that can be added to a media stream to enable downstream systems to enhance the viewing experience are disclosed. The events are given time attributes that establish their location in the media stream so that regardless of where the playhead is located within the media stream, the events that are active at that point in time can be identified and synchronized with the playhead. In addition, a master clock can be used to update a stream timeline associated with the media stream to account for differences between the expected and actual duration of advertisements inserted into the media stream.
