Abstract: Using various embodiments, methods and systems for implementing secure transaction transfers are described. In one embodiment, a system performing the techniques described herein maintains a multi key index associated with a plurality of financial transactions using a self-balanced sorted tree data structure. Thereafter, the system reads/stores the self-balanced sorted tree data structure into memory and applies a filtering algorithm on the self-balanced sorted tree data structure to determine at least one qualifying financial transaction out of the plurality of financial transactions. The system selects the at least one qualifying financial transaction if it does not exceed a predetermined value. In one embodiment, the predetermined value is determined based on an available maximum utilization amount available to a user. Thereafter, the system transfers the selected at least one qualifying financial transaction to a secured credit card.

Abstract: Systems and methods for organizing and controlling the display of content, then measuring the effectiveness of that content in modifying behavior, within a particular temporal and special dimension, so as to minimize or eliminate confounding effects.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining causal models for controlling environments. One of the methods includes repeatedly selecting, by a control system for the environment, control settings for the environment based on internal parameters of the control system, wherein: at least some of the control settings for the environment are selected based on a causal model, and the internal parameters include a first set of internal parameters that define a number of previously received performance metric values that are used to generate the causal model for a particular controllable element; obtaining, for each selected control setting, a performance metric value; determining that generating the causal model for the particular controllable element would result in higher system performance; and adjusting, based on the determining, the first set of internal parameters.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining causal models for controlling environments. One of the methods includes identifying a procedural instance; determining a temporal extent for the procedural instance based on temporal extent parameters for the one or more entities in the procedural instance; selecting control settings for the procedural instance; monitoring environment responses to the control settings that are received for the one or more entities; determining which of the environment responses to attribute to the procedural instance in a causal model; and adjusting, based at least in part on the environment responses that are attributed to the procedural instance, the temporal extent parameters for the one or more entities.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining causal models for controlling environments. One of the methods includes repeatedly selecting control settings for the environment based on (i) a causal model that identifies causal relationships between possible settings for controllable elements in the environment and environment responses that reflect a performance of the control system in controlling the environment and (ii) current values of a set of internal parameters; and during the repeatedly selecting: monitoring environment responses to the selected control settings; determining, based on the environment responses, an indication that one or more properties of the environment have changed; and in response, modifying the current values of one or more of the internal parameters.

Abstract: A wireless cell array tracker includes a daisy chain connecter and processor each supported on a circuit substrate. The circuit substrate is attached to a battery array. The daisy chain connector physically interfaces with a battery sensing module of the battery array. The processor retrieves data from the battery sensing module via the daisy chain connector, and commands wireless transmission of the data.

Abstract: At least some aspects of the present disclosure feature systems and methods for delivering content to a mobile device. In one embodiment, the system receives location information of the mobile device and determines a response duration. The system selects a content piece to deliver to the mobile device based on information regarding content comparisons or experimental units.

Abstract: Devices, computer-readable media, and methods for pre-loading video chunks of a video program at an edge server are disclosed. For example, a processor may receive a manifest file for a video program, determine a bitrate for a first segment of the video program, request a video chunk of the first segment at the first bitrate from an edge server in accordance with the manifest file, and request a subset of a video chunk of a second segment of the video program from the edge server.

Abstract: An extrusion system includes a system to pump a thermoplastic resin melt through an extrusion die, the thermoplastic resin including a polymer base whose rheological properties are modified using fillers, a perforation/embossed roll, and a resilient/pressure backing nip roll through which the extruded thermoplastic resin melt travels between the perforation/embossed roll and the resilient/pressure backing nip roll in a roll nip/station area, exiting the roll nip/station area and around the resilient/pressure backing nip roll and subsequently released from the resilient/pressure backing nip roll as a perforated film, film or fabric carrier supported perforated film, coex laminate, or cut into sheet

Abstract: An artificial intelligence platform for electrification of a fleet of vehicles and an energy distribution system are described. The energy distribution system comprises a number of electric energy storage devices associated with vehicles in the fleet, as well as charging points. The configuration of the electric energy storage devices and the charging points is determined using an artificial intelligence platform and vehicle positional and energy consumption information. The platform allows for the iterative implementation of the process of electrification in a simple and predictable manner, given specific constraints, and provides energy distribution systems for electrical vocational vehicles in a flexible and cost-effective manner.
