Abstract: Various embodiments concern obtaining mobile device data and generating activity logs. More specifically, mobile device data such as data indicating the location and time of a mobile device is obtained. The time and location may be automatically obtained and recorded using location service APIs on the mobile device. The obtained data is then used to generate a report including the time, duration, and location of activities associated with the user of the mobile device. Thus, an activity log is automatically generated using the time and location data.

Abstract: Alarm system technology, in which an alarm event is detected at a property monitored by an alarm system when the alarm system was set in an armed state. Based on detection of the alarm event, an alarm probability score that indicates a likelihood of the alarm event being an emergency situation is determined and the alarm event is handled based on the determined alarm probability score.

Abstract: A system tokenizes values stored in a field by multiple records. The system creates a trie from the tokenized values, each branch in the trie labeled with one of the tokenized values, each node storing a count indicating the number of the multiple records associated with a tokenized value sequence beginning from a root of the trie. The system tokenizes a value stored in the field by a prospective record. Beginning from the root of the trie, the system identifies each node corresponding to a token value sequence for the prospective record's tokenized value. Beginning from the most recently identified node for the prospective record's token value sequence, the system identifies each extending node which stores a count that satisfies a threshold, each identified extending node corresponding to another token value sequence. The system uses the other token value sequence to identify one of the multiple records that matches the prospective record.

Abstract: A non-transitory tangible computer readable medium containing instructions configured to cause one or more processors to execute a process. The process comprises monitoring user input, preferences, and navigation patterns of a website or computer application on a user computer device, such as a computer, phone, or tablet.

Abstract: Described herein are systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for implementing a self executing and self disposing signal for an imperative programming language. The self executing and self disposing signal may be utilized by a ReactiveX Specification programming language. The signal may be executed before it is observed by an external observer, reducing load times. Additionally, the signal may allow for multiple observers to observe the output of the signal at the same time and may be self disposing to prevent memory leaks.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device for compressing video image data includes a housing, an image sensor, a memory device, and one or more processors. The image sensor can generate image data from light incident on the image sensor. The one or more processors can transform the image data to obtain transform coefficients, quantize the transform coefficients, encode the quantized transform coefficients, and store the quantized transform coefficients to the memory device. The one or more processors can encode the quantized transform coefficients at least by determining a range of multiple ranges in which one transform coefficient is included, determining a value within the range to which the one transform coefficient corresponds, encoding using a first algorithm the range as a range code, and encoding using a second algorithm the value as a value code.

Abstract: Content deployment systems and methods are provided for continuously integrating and deploying selected content items from a plurality of content sources into a specific release as part of the specific release. For example, a first content source stores a plurality of first content items for potential inclusion in the specific release. A manifest record for the specific release specifies release items that are allowed to be part of the specific release. A proxy can periodically retrieve selected ones of the first content items that are specified in the manifest record, and push them to a content publishing engine. Any content items that are not specified in the manifest record are rejected by the proxy. A processor of the content publishing engine can allow for continuous integration of the selected ones of the first content items into the specific release.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system is designed to determine the requirement of a perception range for a particular type of vehicles and a particular planning and control technology. A shadow filter is used to connect a scenario based simulator and a PnC module, and tuning the parameters (e.g. decreasing the filter range, tuning the probability of obstacles to be observed among frames) of shadow filter to mimic the real world perceptions with a limited range and reliabilities. Based on the simulation results (e.g., a failure rate, smoothness, etc.), the system is able to determine the required perception distance for the current PnC module. A PnC module represents a particular autonomous driving planning and control technology for a particular type of autonomous driving vehicles. Notice that the PnC module is replaceable so that this method is suitable for different PnC algorithms representing different autonomous driving technologies.

Abstract: A system receives one or more changes to a platform-independent declarative specification to generate a modified platform-independent declarative specification that captures various aspects for deploying a data center on a target cloud platform. The system facilitates auditing by generating a snapshot of each modified declarative specification. After compilation of the modified declarative specification to generate a platform-specific metadata representation of the data center, the system generates a unique identifier, and associates the generated snapshot of the modified declarative specification, the metadata representation of the data center, the provisioned cloud resources on the target cloud platform, and the deployed data center on the target cloud platform with the unique identifier.
