Abstract: An apparatus for video decoding includes processing circuitry. The circuitry can be configured to determine whether to apply the PROF to an affine coded block, and responsive to a determination to apply the PROF to the affine coded block, perform a PROF process. For example, during the PROF process, a prediction sample I(i,j) at a sample location (i,j) in the affine coded block can be generated. Spatial gradients g_x (i,j) and g_y (i,j) at the sample location (i,j) in the affine coded block can be generate. A prediction refinement ?I(i,j) based on the spatial gradients g_x (i,j) and g_y (i,j) can be generated. The prediction refinement ?I(i,j) can added to the prediction sample I(i,j) to generate a refined prediction sample. The PROF for affine prediction can be enabled according to a syntax element received at the decoder, or can be enabled by default.

Abstract: A memory die includes an alternating stack of insulating layers and electrically conductive layers through which memory opening fill structures vertically extend. The memory die includes at least three memory array regions interlaced with at least two contact regions, or at least three contact regions interlaced with at least two memory array regions in the same memory plane. A logic die including at least two word line driver regions can be bonded to the memory die. The interlacing of the contact regions and the memory array regions can reduce lateral offset of boundaries of the word line driver regions from boundaries of the contact regions.

Abstract: In examples, a requestor device requests data from a data platform. A response from the data platform may include a version identifier indicating a version of data used to process the request and a device identifier indicating the server device that processed the request. Accordingly, the requestor device may include the version identifier and device identifier in a subsequent request, such that the request is routed to the server device accordingly. In examples, the server device may evaluate the version identifier to determine whether the request is associated with a different version of the data, as may occur when the data of the server device has since been updated. Similarly, the requestor device may evaluate a version identifier from the data platform as compared to that of a previously received response to determine whether the response is associated with a different version of data than that of a previous response.

Abstract: The technology relates to an exterior sensor system for a vehicle configured to operate in an autonomous driving mode. The technology includes a close-in sensing (CIS) camera system to address blind spots around the vehicle. The CIS system is used to detect objects within a few meters of the vehicle. Based on object classification, the system is able to make real-time driving decisions. Classification is enhanced by employing cameras in conjunction with lidar sensors. The specific arrangement of multiple sensors in a single sensor housing is also important to object detection and classification. Thus, the positioning of the sensors and support components are selected to avoid occlusion and to otherwise prevent interference between the various sensor housing elements.

Abstract: A base station may transmit, to a wireless device, one or more messages comprising configuration parameters for a primary cell and a secondary cell. The configuration parameters may indicate a deactivation timer for the secondary cell and a bandwidth part (BWP) inactivity timer for the primary cell. The base station may start the deactivation timer in response to activating the secondary cell. The base station may start the BWP inactivity timer in response to switching an active BWP of the primary cell. The base station may stop the BWP inactivity timer of the primary cell based on triggering a random-access procedure for the secondary cell. In response to the deactivation timer of the secondary cell expiring during the random-access procedure, the base station may restart the BWP inactivity timer of the primary cell.
