Abstract: A movable core is driven by a magnetic attraction force with a fixed core to move a valve body to inject fuel. A yoke accommodates the fixed core. A coil is in a coil chamber between the fixed core and the yoke. The coil chamber is filled with a filling resin member being electrically insulative. The fixed core has a core facing surface facing the movable core and includes a protruding portion that protrudes radially outer side and is in contact with the yoke to conduct the magnetic flux. A resin molding flow channel is formed in the protruding portion to cause molten resin serving as the filling resin member to flow into the coil chamber. A length of the protruding portion along a cylinder center line is set to be shorter toward a radially outer side.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to determining whether a vehicle should continue through an intersection. For example, the one or more of the vehicle's computers may identify a time when the traffic signal light will turn from yellow to red. The one or more computers may also estimate a location of a vehicle at the time when the traffic signal light will turn from yellow to red. A starting point of the intersection may be identified. Based on whether the estimated location of the vehicle is at least a threshold distance past the starting point at the time when the traffic signal light will turn from yellow to red, the computers can determine whether the vehicle should continue through the intersection.

Abstract: Directional propagation editing techniques are described, in one example, a digital image, a depth map, and a direction are obtained by an image editing system. The image editing system then generates features. To do so, the image editing system generates features from the digital image and the depth map for each pixel based on the direction, e.g., until an edge of the digital image is reached. In an implementation, instead of storing a value of the depth directly, a ratio is stored based on a depth in the depth map and a depth of a point along the direction. The image editing system then forms a feature volume using the features, e.g., as three dimensionally stacked features. The feature volume is employed by the image editing system as part of editing the digital image to form an edited digital image.

Abstract: A sender holds a first platform account with an interaction system. The sender selects a content item to be shared with a recipient. In response to determining that a recipient identifier of the recipient is not linked to a platform account, an off-platform communication is transmitted to a second user device associated with the recipient identifier. The off-platform communication is in an electronic format supported by the second user device and contains a user-selectable registration link. In response to detecting establishment of a second platform account linked to the recipient identifier, the recipient is enabled to access the content item on the second user device via a user interface provided by an interaction application. A relationship between the first platform account and the second platform account is established within the interaction system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for the dynamic mapping of network element data between data models in network devices are disclosed. In particular, a marked-up native data model can be processed to create a mapping schema file based on the markup included in the native data model. This mapping schema file may define mappings between elements of the native data model and corresponding elements of an external data model. The mapping schema file can then be used to dynamically map network element data from the native data model to the external data model, such as when responding to requests for network element data associated with the mapped elements.
