  • Publication number: 20250061359
    Abstract: A method to forecast the result of a Clifford circuit acting on the qubits comprises: for a fault operator F acting on the qubits, precomputing a backward cumulant of the fault operator for each row u of binary matrices Ms and Ml, the backward cumulant reflecting an effect f=effm(F) on measurement outcomes of the qubits according to the Clifford circuit and fault operator; sampling the fault operator F for the qubits according to the predetermined noise distribution in the Clifford circuit; computing a syndrome s=Msf corresponding to the effect based on a commutator of the backward cumulant versus a row of the binary matrix Ms; computing a set of logical flips f=Mlf corresponding to the effect based on a commutator of the backward cumulant versus a row of the binary matrix Ml; and returning the result based on the syndrome and on the set of logical flips.

  • Publication number: 20240310456
    Abstract: A method for determining a state of a fuse in a battery pack is provided. The battery pack comprises a first string comprising a first string fuse; at least one parallel arrangement comprising a battery cell and a resistor; and a first ammeter. The parallel arrangement is configured to be changeable between a connected state wherein the resistor is connected in parallel to the battery cell and a disconnected state wherein the resistor is disconnected from the battery cell. A second string comprising at least one battery cell is connected in parallel to the first string. The method comprises changing the at least one parallel arrangement of the first string to the connected state, and measuring a current passing through the first string. In an event that the change in the first current does not exceed a threshold, the first string fuse is in a blown state.

  • Patent number: 12084060
    Abstract: Techniques for utilizing a depth completion algorithm to determine dense depth data are discussed are discussed herein. Two-dimensional image data representing an environment can be captured or otherwise received. Depth data representing the environment can be captured or otherwise received. The depth data can be projected into the image data and processed using the depth completion algorithm. The depth completion algorithm can be utilized to determine the dense depth values based on intensity values of pixels, and other depth values. A vehicle can be controlled based on the determined depth values.

  • Publication number: 20240289761
    Abstract: A merchant uses a merchant point of sale (POS) device to identify items or services for purchase by a customer, and costs for each. One or more payment amounts are sent from the merchant POS device to a checkout server using an application programming interface (API), which the checkout server sends on to an authorized payment terminal device that then reads payment information from a payment object and sends the payment information back to the checkout server. The checkout server processes the transaction and confirms transaction completion to the merchant POS device and payment terminal device.

  • Patent number: 12068759
    Abstract: A method to build a lookup decoder for mapping error syndromes based on quantum-stabilizer code to corresponding error corrections comprises (A) enumerating a subset of error syndromes up to a maximum error weight based on the quantum-stabilizer code; (B) iterating through the subset of error syndromes to compute an error state of highest probability for each error syndrome of the subset, where the error state defines error in a qubit register of a quantum computer; and (C) for each error syndrome of the subset of error syndromes, storing in classical computer memory an error correction based on the error state of highest probability and mapped to that error syndrome.

  • Patent number: 12058157
    Abstract: Devices and techniques are generally described for anomalous computer activity detection. In various examples, first computer activity data associated with a first account may be determined. A first linear detection event that corresponds to the first computer activity data may be determined. In some examples, a set of gradient-based data associated with the first linear detection event may be determined. The set of gradient-based data may represent comparative analysis of the first computer activity data with computer activity data of other accounts. In some examples, first data representing the first linear detection event and the set of gradient-based data may be generated. In various cases, network access for the first account may be disabled based on the first data.
