Abstract: The memory device includes a block with a plurality of memory cells arranged in a plurality of data word lines, which are arranged in sub-blocks that are not separated from one another by physical joints or by dummy word lines. A controller is configured to erase the memory cells of a selected sub-block of the plurality of sub-blocks without erasing the memory cells of the unselected sub-blocks. The controller reads data of the edge one word lines of the unselected sub-blocks adjacent the selected sub-block and stores this data in a temporary location external of the block before erasing the memory cells of the selected sub-block. The controller then re-programs the data that is being temporarily stored back into the memory cells of the edge word lines of the unselected sub-blocks after erase of the selected sub-block is completed.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for determining a pressure associated with a lumen of a body. A wireless sensor is positioned in the lumen of the body. The sensor comprises an LC resonant circuit having a resonant frequency configured to vary in response to changes in pressure in the lumen. One or more sensor calibration parameters are stored at an external base unit. The external based unit generates and transmits an energizing signal. A ring down response is received from the wireless sensor. The system and method determine the resonant frequency of the LC resonant circuit from the ring down response and calculate the pressure in the lumen from the resonant frequency of the LC resonant circuit utilizing the one or more sensor calibration parameters associated with the LC resonant circuit.

Abstract: A wallboard fastening device secures first and second wallboards to a framing member without fasteners passing through the wallboards. The device includes first and second framing panels joined along lengthwise edges at a frame seam to form a two-sided frame that fits around the framing member. The device includes first and second flat-spring flanges joined along lengthwise edges at a front seam. The device includes a channel-dividing panel joined lengthwise to the front seam and to the second framing panel to form first and second channels that are sized to receive edges of the wallboards. The device includes a guide flange joined lengthwise to the frame seam. A corner edge of the second wallboard may be pushed against the guide flange such that the corner edge slides along the guide flange, thereby guiding the second wallboard into the second channel.
Abstract: In some implementations, an event management device may generate a document object model (DOM) associated with a graphical user interface (GUI) that is associated with a platform to cause one or more fields to be included in the GUI. The event management device may provide, to the platform, the DOM to cause the GUI to be displayed. The event management device may receive, via the GUI, an indication of information associated with the event. The event management device may determine that the event satisfies the criteria based on the information received via the GUI. The event management device may store the information associated with the event in a database in connection with an identifier indicating that the event satisfies the criteria. The event management device may transmit an indication of the one or more metrics for display via a client device.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for automatically characterizing lesions in ultrasound images. In one example, a method includes automatically determining an A/B ratio of a region of interest (ROI) via an A/B ratio model that is trained to output the A/B ratio using a B-mode image of the ROI and an elastography image of the ROI as inputs, and displaying the A/B ratio on a display device.
Abstract: An under hood storage system of a vehicle includes an under hood storage compartment located in an under hood area of a vehicle, and a hood assembly that, when in a closed position closes the under hood storage compartment. The hood assembly includes an under hood panel having a first portion formed from a first material, and a second portion surrounding the first portion defining an outer perimeter of the under hood panel. The second portion is formed from a second material softer than the first material. One or more attachment features secure the under hood panel to the hood assembly. The under hood panel interacts with the under hood storage compartment to close the under hood storage compartment.

Abstract: A locking tree stand comprising a basin with a plurality of bolt mounts configured to accommodate locking bolts to slide into position. When a tab on the bolt mount is closed a threaded portion of the locking bolt comes in contact with a grip on the tab, preventing the bolt from sliding freely within the bolt mount. The bolt may slide on the thread base where a spring extends from, causing an arm from the spring to push the tab away from the locking bolt, when a locking tab is in an unlocked position. A foot pad may also be attached to the locking screw to provide a greater contact surface between the locking bolt and the trunk of a tree. The footpad may also include a plurality of nubs to provide greater grip between the footpad and the tree trunk.
Abstract: A device may be configured to process messages from a plurality of input devices. The messages may be received on a first communication link and may be processed for being transmitted on a second communication link. The device may receive messages comprising data on the first communication link from the plurality of input devices. The data from the input devices may be aggregated and transmitted in at least one message on the second communication link.
Abstract: A computer system is configured to profile a program during an execution of the program. Profiling the program includes obtaining, by a first profiler, a first set of information associated with the execution of the program, and obtaining a second set of information associated with one or more executions of the function. The second set of information includes at least a call count or an execution time of each of the one or more executions of the function. The computer system then identifies a subset of the first set of information that is associated with the one or more executions of the function, and creates aggregate information based on the subset of the first set of information and the second set of information. The aggregated information is then reported.

Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to automated data splitting using predictive program synthesis. Input-only examples for splitting an input column of an input data set can be received. The input-only examples can include example entries from the input column of the input data set to be split into multiple output columns without specification of how the example entries are to be split into multiple output columns. Further, a program for splitting the input column of the input data set into the multiple output columns can be synthesized based on the input-only examples. The program can be synthesized, given the input-only examples, in a domain-specific language (DSL) for splitting an entry into a tuple of fields utilizing a predictive program synthesis algorithm. Moreover, the program can be executed on the input data set to split the input column of the input data set into the multiple output columns.
