  • Publication number: 20240079001
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating a prediction of an audio signal. One of the methods includes receiving a request to generate an audio signal conditioned on an input; processing the input using an embedding neural network to map the input to one or more embedding tokens; generating a semantic representation of the audio signal; generating, using one or more generative neural networks and conditioned on at least the semantic representation and the embedding tokens, an acoustic representation of the audio signal; and processing at least the acoustic representation using a decoder neural network to generate the prediction of the audio signal.

  • Publication number: 20150300871
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for continuously monitoring the weight of an object are disclosed. The apparatus does not obstruct a central portion of the bottom of the object being monitored, and is especially well-suited for monitoring the weight of a beehive. In the illustrative embodiment, a ring-shaped fluid-filled bladder is sandwiched between a ring-shaped top surface and a ring-shaped base, and a pressure hose connects the bladder to a pressure gauge. Beehive weight data can be obtained in a continuous fashion, without requiring any moving of the beehive or of the apparatus, and without any other type of disruption. Moreover, the apparatus provides a stable platform that keeps the beehive immobile during monitoring, which is beneficial for the health of the colony. Advantageously, the apparatus can be constructed from inexpensive, off-the-shelf components and materials, and is capable of obtaining accurate measurements over a wide range of temperatures and environmental conditions.

  • Publication number: 20080033610
    Abstract: A computer and entertainment system for an automobile is housed in a portable enclosure that may be placed on the passenger seat or on the floor of the automobile. The computer and entertainment system is powered from the automobile 12VDC system by plugging a power cable into the dashboard cigarette lighter socket. The enclosure includes beverage cup holders and includes a padded lid that may serve as an arm rest. Wireless communication links include communication with wireless Internet hot spots and local home-based wireless networks enabling the portable automobile computer to self synchronize with a home-based computer.
