Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a magnetic field sensor having a first set of MR elements configured to change in resistance due to an applied magnetic field having an orientation in a sensitive axis of the first set of MR elements and a second set of MR elements that are immune to the applied magnetic field. The second set of MR elements is configured to change in resistance due to temperature. A processor can compensate for the response of the first set of MR elements based on the temperature information from the second set of MR elements.

Abstract: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) utilize perception and understanding of objects on the road to predict behaviors of the objects, and to plan a trajectory for the vehicle. In some scenarios, an AV may benefit from having information about an object that is not within a perceivable area of the sensors of the AV. Another AV in the area that has the object within a perceivable area of the sensors of the other AV may share information with the AV. Rich information about the object determined by the other AV can be compressed using an encoder and transferred efficiently to the AV for inclusion in a temporal map that combines locally determined object information and transferred object information determined by other AV(s). The temporal map may be used in one or more parts of the software stack of the AV.

Here, the pre-trained ASR model includes a plurality of weights and the fine-tuning includes pruning one or more weights of the plurality of weights using a sparsity mask and quantizing each weight of the plurality of weights based on an integer with a fixed-bit width.

Abstract: Routing peer-to-peer communications via telecommunications networks based on bifurcated user-specific sentiment analysis may be facilitated. In some embodiments, a system may generate a sentiment value related to each utterance of a set of utterances associated with a user by providing each utterance of the set of utterances to a sentiment machine learning model. The system may bin each utterance into a set of bins based on the sentiment values. The system may determine a sentiment probability of each bin of the set of bins by randomly sampling a subset of utterances corresponding to a respective bin of the set of bins. The system may determine an overall sentiment probability for a transcript based on the determined sentiment probability of each bin. In response to receiving a communication request, the system may route the communication request to an agent based on the overall sentiment probability satisfying a threshold sentiment probability.

Abstract: Data of a plurality of channels of a spread-spectrum network are received. For example, the data of the plurality of channels of the spread-spectrum network may be captured by a spread-spectrum router (e.g., a WiFi router). The data of the plurality of channels of the spread-spectrum network is analyzed to identify an anomalous cross-channel pattern across the plurality of channels of the spread-spectrum network. For example, the attack may be a sequential attack across each of the channels of the spread-spectrum network. In response to identifying the anomalous cross-channel pattern across the plurality of channels of the spread-spectrum network, an action is taken to protect the spread-spectrum network. For example, the action may be to notify an administrator of the spread-spectrum network that a potential attack is occurring on the spread-spectrum network or to block access to the spread-spectrum router.

Abstract: A universal opt-in/opt-out client enables a user to connect to the APIs for various different sites which have the user's data. The universal client and orchestrates opting out on any of the sites which the user selects and enables the user to granularly select partial opt-ins or opt-outs where the user may wish to enable some uses of data and access to data, but would also like to restrict others. When a user is calibrating their privacy and data settings, a company or site may provide reasons and incentives for the user to enable access to certain data. This enables users to have simultaneous global control over their personal data while enabling the user to receive compensation for the use of their personal data, and enabling companies to have access to better data.
