Abstract: Data related to the adherence of a patient to a therapy regime can be collected from multiple medical devices, each of which may have an incomplete data set with data entries associated with times. Each incomplete data set represents a portion of a complete data set. The data sets can be integrated to create a complete data set with data entries from each incomplete data set being arranged in a temporal sequence with respect to one another. A report may be generated, the report having the data entries of the complete data set or a function of the data entries of the complete data set.

Abstract: An exterior wall section forms a portion of an exterior wall of a building. The building has multiple floors and a framework defining the multiple floors. The exterior wall section includes a structural layer to be connected to the framework. The structural layer includes a plurality of studs connected together. An insulation layer is supported by the structural layer to insulate the building. Siding is supported by the structural layer and defines an exterior side of the exterior wall section. A perimeter of the exterior wall section is defined by the edge margins of the structural layer, the insulation layer and/or the siding. The exterior wall section includes an interlocking structure extending along the perimeter that mates with an interlocking structure of another exterior wall section to form a seal with said another exterior wall section when the exterior wall sections are connected to the building.

Abstract: A computing device may receive motion data generated by one or more motion sensors that correspond to movement sensed by the one or more motion sensors. The computing device may perform, using one or more neural networks trained with differential privacy, on-device activity recognition to recognize a physical activity that corresponds to the motion data. The computing device may, in response to recognizing the physical activity that corresponds to the motion data, perform an operation associated with the physical activity.

Abstract: Implementations relate to improved crop field segmentation and crop classification in which boundaries between crop fields are more accurately detected. In various implementations, high-elevation image(s) that capture an area containing multiple demarcated fields may be applied as input across one or more machine learning models to generate a boundary enhancement channel. Each pixel of the boundary enhancement channel may be spatially aligned with a corresponding pixel of the one or more high-elevation images. Moreover, each pixel of the boundary enhancement channel may be classified with a unit angle to a reference location of the field of the multiple demarcated fields that contains the pixel. Based on the boundary enhancement channel, pixel-wise field memberships of pixels of the one or more high-elevation images in the multiple demarcated fields may be determined.

Abstract: Described are automated systems and methods for providing a simulated environment for robotic and/or real-time systems, such as unmanned vehicles, to perform full system simulations while also providing a system-wide code coverage assessment of the software associated with the robotic and/or real-time systems. The exemplary systems and methods can employ code coverage instrumented shared libraries to facilitate generation of code coverage information and one or more code coverage reports. The code coverage information and/or the code coverage report can quantify the effectiveness of the testing and can facilitate development of more comprehensive and efficient testing of the software.

Abstract: A stereo camera pair may be used to determine deformation and/or strain on a member based on differences in calculated movement of the cameras that capture images. In some embodiments, a first camera may be mounted to a first end of a member and a second camera may be mounted to a second end of the member opposite the first end. As the member bends, twists, or deforms in other ways, the deformation may be detectable based on differences in images captured by the first and second camera. This data may be used to detect possible wear or damage to the member, as a control input to a vehicle to reduce possible wear or damage to the member, as a prompt to initiate maintenance or inspection of the member, and/or for other reasons.

Abstract: An e-mail system is disclosed that overcomes many deficiencies of, but is backward compatible with, existing e-mail systems. An exemplary method for communicating e-mail messages comprises receiving, at a server system, an original e-mail message associated with a unique message ID that is assigned by the server system. The method further comprises storing a distribution list associated with the unique message ID and a thread participation status indicator for each of the one or more recipients, and, in response to an opt-out request received from one of the recipients, updating the distribution list to thereby produce a modified distribution list that does not include the requesting recipient. The method further comprises receiving a reply e-mail message in the same thread, and sending the reply e-mail message based on the modified distribution list such that the reply e-mail message is not sent to the requesting recipient.
