Abstract: The subject technology receives code corresponding to a neural network (NN) model and a set of weights for the NN model. The subject technology determines a set of layers that are mutable in the NN model. The subject technology determines information for mapping a second set of weights to the set of weights for the NN model. The subject technology generates metadata corresponding to the set of layers that are mutable, and the information for mapping the second set of weights to the set of weights for the NN model, wherein the generated metadata enables updating the set of layers that are mutable during execution of the NN model.

Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a recognition part, a driving control part, and an output control part. When determining there is a section where a current driving mode cannot be continued in a first lane and the vehicle changes to a second lane, the output control part outputs predetermined information, including first and second information, before reaching the section. When detecting an intention to change lanes after outputting the first information, and a lane change to the second lane is completed before outputting the second information, the driving control part continues a first driving mode executed during traveling in the first lane even after the lane change is completed, and when detecting the intention to change lanes after outputting the first information, and the lane change to the second lane is completed after outputting the second information, the driving control part changes to a driving mode imposing a larger task.

Abstract: In various examples, performance capabilities of a consumer—such as inference rates of a neural network executing on underlying hardware—may be tested or demonstrated for producers that have lower production rates than consumption rates of the consumer. For example, augmented data instances may be leveraged to augment production data from the producer in order to increase a frequency of transmission of data instances to a consumer. As a result, a data set including additional or alternative instances of data may be generated to emulate real-world data for demonstrating potential performance capabilities of a consuming algorithm beyond a currently required performance capability corresponding to a producer.

Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods for brokerless reliable totally ordered many-to-many inter-process communication on a single node. A messaging protocol is provided that utilizes shared memory for one of the control plane and data plane, and multicast for the other plane.

The controller maneuvers, via the steering and braking systems, the vehicle based on the status.

Abstract: This disclosure details cargo management systems for monitoring the regulatory compliance of cargo positioned on a vehicle. Exemplary cargo management systems may be configured to estimate a distance an item of cargo extends beyond a perimeter of the vehicle and then compare the estimated distance with a cargo-related regulation to confirm compliance of the item of cargo with the cargo-related regulation. The cargo management system may further be configured to detect positional changes of the item of cargo to ensure continued compliance of the item of cargo with the cargo-related regulation during vehicle operation. The cargo management system may issue an alert when the item of cargo is determined to be non-compliant with the cargo-related regulation or when the item of cargo shifts during vehicle operation.

Abstract: A parametric constant resolves to different values in different contexts, but a single value within a particular context. An anchor constant is a parametric constant that allows for a degree of parametricity for an API point. The context for the anchor constant is provided by a caller to the API point. The anchor constant resolves to an anchor value that records specialization decisions for the API point within the provided context. Specialization decisions may include type restrictions, memory layout, and/or memory size. The anchor value together with an unspecialized type of the API point result in a specialized type of the API point. A class object representing the specialized type is created. The class object may be accessible to the caller, but the full value of the anchor value is not accessible to the caller. The API point is executed based on the specialization decisions embodied in the anchor value.
