Abstract: In an example method, a computer system receives first data representing a plurality of scenarios for estimating a performance of a vehicle in conducting autonomous operations. Further, the computer system determines, for each of the scenarios: (i) a first metric indicating an observed performance of the vehicle in that scenario, where the first metric is determined based on at least one rule, and (ii) a second metric indicating a degree of information gain associated with that scenario. The computer system selects a subset of the scenarios based on the first metrics and the second metrics, and outputs second data indicative of the subset of the scenarios.

Abstract: An illustrative example composite leaf spring includes first and second bushing tubes near longitudinal ends. A ribbon of base material is wrapped at least partially around the first and second bushing tubes. The base material has a width that defines a width of the leaf spring. First portions of the base material are near the longitudinal ends and a second portion is between the first portions. The second portion is thicker than the first portions. A plurality of layers of a ribbon of tension material are wrapped around the base material. The tension material defines an outermost layer of the leaf spring. The tension material has warp strands in a longitudinal direction between the first and second longitudinal ends of the leaf spring and weft strands transverse to the warp strands. The warp strands establish a majority of a composition of the tension material.
Abstract: An electronic rack includes a rack manifold to be coupled to an external cooling fluid source, including a supply rack manifold and a return rack manifold, wherein the rack manifold includes a plurality of pairs of rack connectors disposed thereon. The electronic rack further includes a server chassis including a connector holder having a pair of a supply server connector and a return server connector to be connected with a corresponding pair of rack connectors of the rack manifold. The electronic rack further includes a controller, in response to detecting a leakage of the cooling fluid, configured to cause the supply server connector to disconnect from the supply rack manifold, while maintaining the return server connector connected with the return rack manifold, and to increase a flowrate of the cooling fluid on the return rack manifold to remove the cooling fluid residing within the server chassis.
Abstract: A base station may transmit a first downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). The first DCI may comprise a feedback timing indicator field. In response to the feedback timing indicator field indicating not to receive a feedback for the PDSCH before transmitting a second DCI, the base station may start a discontinuous reception (DRX) timer with a first value. The base station may transmit, via a downlink control channel, the second DCI while the DRX timer is running.
Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH011206. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH011206, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH011206 with itself or with another corn plant, such as a plant of another variety. The invention further relates to genetic complements of plants of variety CH011206.

Abstract: A system for illuminating an area around a motor vehicle, having: a pair of radar systems and a pair of lighting systems mounted on the motor vehicle; a vehicle level sensor configured to detect changes in pitch or roll of the motor vehicle; and an illumination control system in the motor vehicle. The illumination control system includes a key fob communication system and determines the location of a person by detecting the person approaching the motor vehicle by detecting the presence of the key fob while also detecting the location of the person with a radar system mounted on the vehicle. Next, when the location of the person has been determined, the illumination system lights up the area the person is standing while following movement of the person with the radar system to continuously re-directing the illumination towards the location on the ground where the person is standing as the person moves.
