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.

Abstract: An apparatus, system and technique selectively eliminates the noxious signal components in a neuronal signal by creating an interfering electrical signal that is tuned to a given frequency corresponding to the oscillatory pattern of the noxious signal, resulting in a modified neuronal signal that substantially reproduces a normal, no-pain neuronal signal. The disclosed system and technique of pain relief is based on the hypothesis that the temporal profile of pain signals encodes particular components that oscillate at unique and quantifiable frequencies, which are responsible for pain processing in the brain.

Abstract: Snapshots may be used to implement remote replication, for example, asynchronously, between a first storage system, A1, and a second storage system, A2. A1 may take a first snapshot, SS21, of a logical storage unit, R1. After the snapshot SS21 it taken, any dependent write operations associated with SS21 may be reconciled, and differences between SS21 and the last snapshot for R1, SS11, may be determined and recorded as a difference set. One or more replication instructions for R1 that include the write operations (or data and metadata corresponding thereto) of the difference set may be sent from A1 to A2. A2 may apply the differences to R2, and then take (activate) a snapshot of R2, SS22, which is a replica of SS21. After A2 activates SS22, A2 may send an acknowledgement to A1 indicating that SS22 has been activated, and A2 may take a next snapshot of R1.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for testing motor skills involved in locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative activities. The system utilizes joint data created by a motion sensor during a subject's performance of an activity to determine the subject's motor skill proficiency for that activity.

Based on the comparison, the system also determines the subject's proficiency in the particular motor skill tested. The system is embodied in a computer-implemented application that provides various user interfaces for navigating through the user interfaces, accessing a database of the system, testing a subject's motor skills, analyzing a subject's proficiency, and facilitating practice of motor skills.

A script configured for the unique type is executed. For each mismatched client status pair stored in the portion, the script modifies a data store associated with the first network entity to replace the first client status with the second client status.

Abstract: Implementations relate to enabling of authorization of certain automated assistant functions via one or more modalities available within a vehicle. Implementations can eliminate wasting of computational and communication resources by at least allowing other users to authorize execution of certain input commands from a user, without requesting the user to re-submit the commands. The vehicle can include a computing device that provides access to restricted data, which can be accessed in order for an action to be performed by the automated assistant. However, when a restricted user requests that the automated assistant perform an action involving accessing the restricted data, the automated assistant can be authorized or unauthorized to proceed with fulfilling the request via a modality controlled by an unrestricted user.

Abstract: One or more users wear respective wireless headsets or visors that allow the users to see a 3D rendered virtual reality environment emulating the physical space in which the user(s) are located and move. A user is allowed to move freely throughout the physical space while playing. The virtual reality environment that is rendered for a user is based on the user's physical movements. The virtual reality environment rendered for a user shows virtual objects where the corresponding physical objects are located so that as the user moves around the objects in the virtual environment the user also moves around the physical objects in the physical space. The floor of the physical space may be made of movable segments that move according to game play instructions.
