Abstract: A wireless communications relay includes a first radio and a second radio operating over adjacent channels. A baseband signal to be transmitted (the “transmit signal”) from the first radio is split along two paths. A first path is delayed by a delay element and the second path is provided as input to a channel model configured to implement a transfer function approximating an echo channel of the local RF environment. The channel model outputs a baseband approximation of echo channel effects of the transmit signal, after which an RF chain modulates the echo channel approximation to the RF domain. This RF echo channel approximation is thereafter filtered by an RF band pass filter turned to an operating channel of the second radio. The filtered signal is thereafter combined with received signal to compensate for self-interference.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for using synthetic resource records to configure and manage web applications and various online services. A user is provided with the ability to setup a single synthetic resource record for their domain such that all of the associated dependent resource records are automatically configured and added to the domain as well. The methods and systems provided utilize synthetic resource records as a way of logically grouping resource records into “human readable” sets of resource records. Through synthetic resource records, users are able to address common configuration issues without having to know the technical specifications of associated zone files or resource records. Additionally, users can complete a variety of configuration tasks related to setting-up web applications without having to look-up resource record values from external sites (e.g., from the domain host).

Abstract: A supply roll stand for loading first and second supply rolls each including a core and dispensing material therefrom. The supply roll stand broadly comprises a frame, a lift support, an unwind assembly, and a transfer support. The lift support receives the first supply roll and raises the first supply roll. The unwind assembly unwinds the first supply roll as the lift support raises the first supply roll. The transfer support receives the first supply roll so that the first supply roll is transferred from the lift support. The lift support receives the second supply roll after the first supply roll is transferred to the transfer support. The transfer support dispatches the core of the first supply roll when the first supply roll is depleted of material. The unwind assembly unwinds the second supply roll when the first supply roll is depleted of material.

The session management function sends, to a user plane function (UPF) and based on the parameter, a user plane rule indicating that the UPF performs synchronized forwarding of packets of the multiple data flows.

Abstract: A data input system is described for inputting text items to an electronic device. The data input system has a store holding a vocabulary of embeddings of text items, each embedding being a numerical encoding of a text item. The data input system receives user input comprising a sequence of one or more context text items and a new text item, the new text item being a text item with an embedding to be computed and added to the vocabulary or with an embedding already in the vocabulary and to be updated. A neural network predictor predicts a next text item in the sequence given the context text items and the vocabulary. An online training module updates the vocabulary by using either a direction associated with the predicted next item, or, by comparing the new text item and the predicted next text item.

For example, various techniques are directed to selectively adapting and/or utilizing a noise reduction technique in detection of an invocation phrase in a stream of audio data frames, detection of voice characteristics in a stream of audio data frames (e.g., for speaker identification), etc. Utilization of described techniques can result in more robust and/or more accurate detections of features of a stream of audio data frames in various situations, such as in environments with strong background noise. In various implementations, described techniques are implemented in combination with an automated assistant, and feature(s) detected utilizing techniques described herein are utilized to adapt the functionality of the automated assistant.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a thin, lightweight, flexible, strong multi-layer barrier fabric is provided that offers extended breakthrough time against hazardous materials. The multi-layer barrier fabric is arranged as a layer stack that includes an inner layer of facing fabric, an adsorbent layer of adsorptive fabric, a barrier layer of low-permeability fabric and an outer layer of facing fabric. The facing fabric provides tensile strength. The adsorptive fabric and the low-permeability fabric interact synergistically. The barrier layer improves capture effectiveness of the adsorbent layer by both slowing down the hazardous material to increase its residence time in the adsorbent layer and decreasing the escape probability of stray molecules of hazardous material that are not initially intercepted by the adsorptive fabric. The adsorbent layer improves barrier effectiveness of the barrier layer by reducing the concentration of hazardous material challenging the low-permeability fabric of the barrier layer.
