Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data defragmentation for a system boot procedure are described. The memory system may determine a write random index associated with a boot procedure. The write random index may indicate a relationship between a first quantity of sequential logical addresses accessed as part of the boot procedure and a second quantity of random logical addresses accessed as part of the boot procedure. The memory system may determine whether the write random index satisfies a threshold based on determining the write random index. In some cases, the memory system may transfer, to a second portion of the memory system, data stored in a first portion of the memory system based on determining that the write random index satisfies the threshold. The memory system may receive a request to perform the boot procedure after transferring the data and output, to the host system, the data transferred.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to magnetic recording devices with stable magnetization. The magnetic recording device comprises a lower leading shield, an upper leading shield disposed on the lower leading shield, a main pole disposed above the upper leading shield, a trailing shield disposed above the main pole and upper leading shield, and an upper return pole disposed above the trailing shield. A first non-magnetic layer is disposed between the lower leading shield and the upper leading shield, and a second non-magnetic layer is disposed between the trailing shield and the upper return pole. The lower leading shield has a different domain state than the upper leading shield, and the trailing shield and the upper leading shield have a same domain state. The materials and thickness of the first and second non-magnetic layers result in magnetostatic coupling or anti-ferromagnetic coupling.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for presenting attribute variations (differing attribute values) of an item at a network page. A request for the network page associated with an item of an electronic catalog can be received. In response to the request, the network page can be presented. The content and/or format of the network page can be predefined by an interface specification associated with the item and/or item category for the item. The network page may include a first area that includes an expanded view in which one or more variations of the first attribute are depicted and any suitable number of collapsed views in which one or more variations associated with a respective attribute are hidden from view. The areas of the network page may be dynamically expanded and collapsed to enable selection of various attribute values which may then be used to update the network page.

Abstract: Image data from an image sensor is input into a predictive model to identify perimeter edges of a set of cuboidal items held on a pallet. Depth data from a depth sensor is used to identify a top surface of a first cuboidal item of the set of cuboidal items. Coordinates associated with corners of the first cuboidal item are identified using information about the perimeter edges and the top surface. The coordinates are used to generate instructions for a robotic manipulator to pick up the first cuboidal item.

Abstract: A pediatric head covering to facilitate obtaining three-dimensional images of a head of an infant to be utilized in manufacture of a cranial remodeling orthosis for correction of an abnormal head shape comprises sheer elastic material to be drawn down over an infant's head to compress the hair of an infant and to provide a smooth surface over the infant's cranium. The elastic material has variable elasticity with less elasticity over the crown of the cranium to provide enough strength to compress the infant's hair and conform to the shape of the cranium and more elasticity at the infant's neck to control soft tissue of the infant's neck without leading to distortion of the soft tissue and causing misrepresentations of the actual neck shape in captured three-dimensional images. The head covering facilitates accurate capture and reproduction of three-dimensional images of the infant's head by a three-dimensional image capturing system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a semiconductor integrated circuit of a memory. The semiconductor integrated circuit can comprise a column selection module, a local read-write conversion module, and an amplifier module. The column selection module can be configured to couple a first data line to a bit line and couple a complementary data line to a complementary bit line.

The amplifier module can be configured to amplify data of the second data line based on a reference signal of a reference data line. The reference signal can serve as a reference for amplifying the data of the second data line.

Abstract: A method includes identifying a path to be followed by an ego vehicle. The method also includes determining a desired yaw rate and a desired yaw acceleration for the ego vehicle based on the identified path. The method further includes determining a desired yaw moment for the ego vehicle based on the desired yaw rate and the desired yaw acceleration. In addition, the method includes distributing the desired yaw moment to multiple wheels of the ego vehicle such that the distributed desired yaw moment creates lateral movement of the ego vehicle during travel along the identified path. In some cases, the desired yaw rate and the desired yaw acceleration for the ego vehicle may be determined based on nonlinear kinematics of the ego vehicle, and the desired yaw moment for the ego vehicle may be determined based on a single-track dynamic model of the ego vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for natively interpreting logic across disparate platforms. Rather than executing server calls that are computationally expensive, logic may be extracted into code segments that can be evaluated at run time by an interpreter. The interpreter is passed a set of evaluators, features, and contextual data, each of which is expressed in a domain specific language. An evaluator maps an identifier to a rule and describes one or more contextual data fields with which the rule is to be evaluated. A feature corresponds to a logical condition that identifies the evaluator and a return value that is returned if the condition is met. The interpreter identifies the evaluator from the feature being evaluated and evaluates its corresponding rule based on the contextual data provided to return a return value. One or more operations may be performed based on the return value provided.

The mobile application and the at least one computing device can cause the vehicle theft-prevention apparatus to change from an unarmed mode to an armed mode.

Abstract: A request to access data at an address is received from a host system. A tag associated with the address is determined to not be found in first entries in a first content-addressable memory (CAM) or in second entries in a second CAM. Responsive to determining that the tag is not found in the first entries or in the second entries, a particular entry of the first entries that each includes valid data is selected. A determination is made whether the particular entry satisfies a condition indicating that content in the particular entry is to be stored in the second CAM. The content is associated with other data stored in the cache. Responsive to determining that the condition is satisfied, the content of the particular entry is stored in one of the second entries to maintain the data in the cache.
