Abstract: Apparatus and methods for providing therapeutic treatment for symptoms associated with GERD and/or other digestive disorders and/or other medical conditions are described herein. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a support element and a conformable riser element adjacent the support element. The riser element and the support element collectively form a body support member configured to support a user and define a receiving portion configured to receive a portion of the users arm. The riser element and the support element are each disposed within a casing formed at least in part with a stretch material. In some embodiments, the riser element includes a polyester filler material and the stretch material includes a four-way stretch material. The four-way stretch material in combination with the polyester filler material enables the riser element to be conformable.

Abstract: A circuit comprises an input register configured to receive an input vector of elements, a control register configured to receive a control vector of elements, wherein each element of the control vector corresponds to a respective element of the input vector, and wherein each element specifies a permutation of a corresponding element of the input vector, and a permute execution circuit configured to generate an output vector of elements corresponding to a permutation of the input vector. Generating each element of the output vector comprises accessing, at the input register, a particular element of the input vector, accessing, at the control register, a particular element of the control vector corresponding to the particular element of the input vector, and outputting the particular element of the input vector as an element at a particular position of the output vector that is selected based on the particular element of the control vector.

Abstract: A circuit for transposing a matrix comprising reversal circuitry configured, for each of one or more diagonals of the matrix, to receive elements of the matrix in a first vector and generate a second vector that includes the elements of the matrix in an order that is a reverse of an order of the elements of the matrix in the first vector, and rotation circuitry configured, for each of the one or more diagonals of the matrix, to determine a number of positions by which to rotate the elements of the matrix in the second vector, receive the second vector of elements of the matrix, and generate a third vector that includes the elements of the matrix in the second vector in an order that is a rotation of the elements of the matrix in the second vector by the determined number of positions.

Abstract: The present systems and methods relate to a concept for providing media recommendations targeted to particular, “subject” user. The present systems and methods involve obtaining historical usage data associated with the subject user; identifying candidate users; calculating media preference overlap scores with respect to the subject user and each candidate user; ranking the candidate user according to their media preference overlap scores, and generating recommendations for the subject user from the historical usage data associated with the candidate users.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for generating a set of recommended media works based on an identified seed media work. The seed media work is used to identify a set of co-occurring media works, which are defined as media works that have been intentionally interacted with within a predetermined time window as the seed media work by a single user. After the co-occurrence set is created, it is ranked and filtered. Media works identified in the co-occurrence set may then be selected based on their ranking.

Abstract: A circuit for performing neural network computations for a neural network comprising a plurality of layers, the circuit comprising: activation circuitry configured to receive a vector of accumulated values and configured to apply a function to each accumulated value to generate a vector of activation values; and normalization circuitry coupled to the activation circuitry and configured to generate a respective normalized value from each activation value.

Abstract: Pairing information is used by the target application to determine how to connect to the correct controller. A network pipe is established between the target application and the controller. The network pipe is used to pass information, such as to deliver/receive test information, between the controller and target application. A bridge may also be established between the controller and an analysis tool for the device hosting the target application. The bridge creates a communication path for the controller to send/receive information (e.g. commands, queries) to the analysis tool s to perform tests of the target application. Code may also be injected into the target application such that dynamic linked libraries may be simulated. Crash data may also be obtained by the controller (or some other device) that may not be typically available by a particular device platform.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for providing therapeutic treatment for symptoms associated with GERD and/or other digestive disorders and/or other medical conditions are described herein. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a base support and a support pillow member. The base support includes a support element portion and an encasement portion. The support element portion has a first end portion and a second end portion and a top surface disposed at an angle relative to a bottom surface of the support element. The second end portion has a height greater than the first end portion. The support element portion and the encasement portion collectively define an interior region. The support pillow member is disposable within the interior region. The support pillow member, the support element portion and the encasement portion collectively define a receiving portion configured to receive at least a portion of a user's arm and/or shoulder therein.

Abstract: A method in a computer system for a ride sharing program is disclosed. The computer program will determine an amount of ride units that a ride to a predetermined destination is worth. At least two program members will agree to share the ride. Upon completion of the ride the amount of ride units will be transferred from the account of the ride requiring program member to the account of the ride providing program member. A member may purchase ride units or may earn them by offering rides other program members and completing the rides. Members may also rate each other based on their ride experiences with each other and these comments may be visible by other program members.

Abstract: Disclosed are door assemblies particularly well suited for opening and closing wide entries such as emergency room entries. The assemblies have multiple doors that can be overlapped at a side of the entry. If further access room is needed the doors can then be pivoted so that essentially the entire entry is open. There is an automatic latching system that activates as the doors are being pivoted to prevent some sliding motion during the pivoting.
