Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for receiving a general purpose graphics processing unit (GPGPU) workload and converting the GPGPU workload to a three-dimensional (3D) workload. Additionally, the 3D workload may be dispatched to a 3D pipeline. In one example, converting the GPGPU workload to the 3D workload includes identifying a plurality of thread groups in the GPGPU workload and mapping the plurality of thread groups to a 3D matrix of cubes.

Abstract: The examples described herein discuss various systems, software, devices, and methods for managing a primary command queue by ordering and/or reordering and distributing incoming commands based, at least in part, on positional information of one or more components of data storage devices. More specifically, in some embodiments, the examples discussed herein describe ordering and distributing incoming commands from a primary command queue in a position-aware manner that takes into account disk rotation (e.g., rotational position) and/or actuator head location for the various data storage devices of a data storage system enclosure. Among other benefits, ordering incoming commands at the primary command queue and distributing the ordered commands to individual device queues improves overall command execution latency.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed for automatically creating a group shot image by intelligently selecting a best frame of a video clip to use as a base frame and then intelligently merging features of other frames into the base frame. In an embodiment, this involves determining emotional alignment scores and eye scores for the individual frames of the video clip. The emotional alignment scores for the frames are determined by assessing the faces in each of the frames with respect to an emotional characteristic (e.g., happy, sad, neutral, etc.). The eye scores for the frames are determined based on assessing the states of the eyes (e.g., fully open, partially open, closed, etc.) of the faces in individual frames. Comprehensive scores for the individual frames are determined based on the emotional alignment scores and the eye scores, and the frame having the best comprehensive score is selected as the base frame.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods may provide for technology to dynamically control a display in response to ocular characteristic measurements of at least one eye of a user.

Abstract: An online system allows online system users to search for and view content (e.g., videos) maintained in the online system. The online system may maintain user accounts associated with each user, which allow the online system to identify the users across different sessions within the online system. Upon receiving a request to present a video to a viewing user of the online system, the online system may present a content item in conjunction with the video, such that the content item overlays at least a portion of the video. The content item may be presented in conjunction with an interactive element corresponding to an option to receive a reminder associated with the content item. If the online system receives a request from the viewing user to receive the reminder associated with the content item, the online system may send the reminder to the viewing user at a later time.

Abstract: Example techniques involve control of playback queues of a zone-based media playback system. Each zone of the media playback system may play back audio tracks from a respective queue. A control device may display a playback controller that includes multiple control interfaces to control audio playback by the one or more playback zones. When a first playback zone is being controlled, the playback controller may instruct one or more first playback devices of a first zone to play back audio tracks of a queue of the first playback zone. Example implementations may facilitate adding audio tracks to the queue.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a service in a network samples application traffic throughputs for a set of applications present in a network. The service generates a throughput model based on the sampled application throughputs for the set of applications. The service performs anomaly detection on wireless throughput measurements from the network by comparing the wireless throughput measurements to the generated throughput model. The service sends an anomaly detection notification based on a determination that the wireless throughput measurements from the network are anomalous.

Abstract: Described herein is a method detecting a plurality of upper respiratory tract sub-regions automatically. Volume of interest (VOI) is identified based on the extraction of certain features, such as regional properties and shape-based features. The complete airway volume from a patient's data is identified by observing the area and eccentricity profiles of the certain volume/organ in the skull. Maxillary sinus area and eccentricity profile in the sagittal view is chosen in the present subject matter for level 1 VOI identification. Once a level 1VOI is identified, the other sub-regions existing in the same VOI are further identified as individual level 2 VOL Level 3 VOI is extracted based on the shape and geometric features of the organ. The extracted level 3 VOI is considered as the active contour that is followed by the initialized contour for the accurate segmentation of upper airway sub-regions.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to transforming event data associated with an entity using a multicomputer platform and directing a client computing device to perform a determined action based on a detected event characteristic of the event data and a detected current event. With some embodiments, an event tracking server detects the current event from sensed data provided by a sensed data server and identifies a correlation measure between the detected event characteristic and the detected current event. The event tracking server may direct one or more client computing devices to perform one or more actions related to an entity based on the correlation measure.

Rows of full-adder circuits are distributed between sub-arrays of memory cells to increase the effective memory bandwidth and reduce the time to perform matrix-vector multiplications in the memory device by performing bit-serial dot-product primitives in the form of accumulating m 1-bit x n-bit multiplications.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described for inter-RAT mobility from a first radio access technology (RAT) to a second RAT, including cases in which different RATs correspond to different generations of networks. Approaches described herein include providing a preemptive indication of inter-RAT mobility for one or more geographic areas such to a user equipment (UE). The UE can thus use a mobility procedure to transition from the first RAT to the second RAT that is supported in the UE's location without first attempting an unsupported mobility procedure, reducing transition latency.
