Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for selecting content items for transmission to client devices are provided. A first content item may be transmitted to a first set of client devices. A first request for content associated with a first client device of a second set of client devices may be received. A first bid value associated with a second content item may be selected. The first bid value may be modified based upon a second bid value associated with the first content item to generate a third bid value associated with the second content item. The second content item may be selected from a first plurality of content items for presentation via the first client device based upon a plurality of bid values having the third bid value. The second content item may be transmitted to the first client device.

Abstract: A wireless device and/or a base station may select one or more beams among multiple beams for transmission and/or reception of signals. At least one transmission control indicator (TCI) state of at least two TCI states may be used to receive a downlink signal based on a scheduling offset and the downlink signal overlapping in time with a physical downlink channel transmission.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for reliably performing data compression and data decompression across a wide variety of hardware and software platforms by using integer neural networks. In one aspect, there is provided a method for entropy encoding data which defines a sequence comprising a plurality of components, the method comprising: for each component of the plurality of components: processing an input comprising: (i) a respective integer representation of each of one or more components of the data which precede the component in the sequence, (ii) an integer representation of one or more respective latent variables characterizing the data, or (iii) both, using an integer neural network to generate data defining a probability distribution over the predetermined set of possible code symbols for the component of the data.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in a content system supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data across platforms, which data can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods determine a breaking news story and track breaking developments in such story. The present disclosure can construct a breaking news storyline from the developments in the detected breaking news story, whereby a user can view the storyline as individual breaking news messages or as a complete timeline of events displayed on a provided page.

Abstract: A load control system may include control devices for controlling electrical loads. The control devices may include load control devices, such as a lighting device for controlling an amount of power provided to a lighting load, and controller devices, such as a remote control device configured to transmit digital messages for controlling the lighting load via the load control device. The remote control device may communicate with the lighting devices via a hub device. The remote control device may detect a user interface event, such as a button press or a rotation of the remote control device. The remote control device or the hub device may determine whether to transmit digital messages as unicast messages or multicast messages based on the type of user interface event detected. The remote control device, or other master device, may synchronize and/or toggle an on/off state of lighting devices in the load control system.

Abstract: A method for using idle computing power of an electric vehicle includes sending the computing tasks and the task rates for performing the computing tasks to a vehicle controller of the electric vehicle and receiving an acceptance signal from the vehicle controller. The acceptance signal is indicative that the vehicle controller accepted to perform the computing tasks. The method further includes commanding a charging infrastructure to supply electrical power the electric vehicle while the vehicle controller performs the computing tasks.
