Abstract: Examples of analyzing a plurality of operating parameters of a computing device are described. In an example, current operating parameters of a target computing device may be analyzed based on a first model and a second model. A first model may be trained based on a set of environment-related parameters. A second model may incorporate a set of global weights, wherein the global weights may be based on a set of environment-agnostic parameters.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for learning classifiers for annotating a document with predicted labels under extreme classification where there are over a million labels. The learning includes receiving a joint graph including documents and labels as nodes. Multi-dimensional vector representations of a document (i.e., document representations) are generated based on graph convolution of the joint graph. Each document representation varies an extent of reliance on neighboring nodes to accommodate context. The document representations are feature-transformed using a residual layer. Per-label document representations are generated from the transformed document representations based on neighboring label attention. A classifier is trained for each of over a million labels based on joint learning using training data and the per-label document representation. The trained classifier performs highly efficiently as compared to other classifiers trained using disjoint graphs of documents and labels.

Abstract: A method of processing a substrate according to a PECVD process is described. Temperature profile of the substrate is adjusted to change deposition rate profile across the substrate. Plasma density profile is adjusted to change deposition rate profile across the substrate. Chamber surfaces exposed to the plasma are heated to improve plasma density uniformity and reduce formation of low quality deposits on chamber surfaces. In situ metrology may be used to monitor progress of a deposition process and trigger control actions involving substrate temperature profile, plasma density profile, pressure, temperature, and flow of reactants.

Abstract: A system for enhancing personnel safety on a railroad track is presented. The system can receive data from sensors and/or a PTC system to determine positions of clients/worker and/or vehicles, and further utilize such data to determine if a vehicle is within a certain proximity of the client/worker location. The system can further generate geofences around clients/vehicles to and determine when such geofences intersect one another. Additionally, the present disclosure can assign severity levels and generate alerts with the assigned severity levels, and such severity levels can indicate how close a vehicle is to a particular location. It is an object of the invention to provide a system for generating alerts to notify personnel when they much retreat to a place of safety.

Abstract: Techniques for notification handling based on identity and physical presence are described and may be implemented to determine whether to route a notification from a first device (e.g., a mobile device) to a second device (e.g., a display device) for output at the second device. Generally, the described implementations utilize sensor data captured at a physical location to detect and/or identify persons present at the physical location and to determine whether to route notifications between devices based on the detected persons/identities.

Abstract: Resources of an electronic device are partitioned into a plurality of resource portions to be utilized by a plurality of clients. Each resource portion is assigned to a respective client, has a respective partition identifier (ID), and corresponds to a plurality memory bandwidth usage states tracked for a plurality of memory blocks. For each resource portion, each of the memory bandwidth usage states is associated with a respective memory block and indicates at least how much of a memory access bandwidth assigned to the respective partition ID to access the respective memory block is used. A usage level is determined for each resource partition based on the memory bandwidth usage states, and applied to adjust a credit count. When the credit count is adjusted beyond a request issue threshold, a next data access request is issued from a memory access request queue for the respective partition ID.

Abstract: Systems and methods for remote debugging perform remote debugging of a receiving device, such as a set-top box or other connected media player, even when the receiving device is located behind a firewall. The receiving device has a persistent outbound connection with a message server. Since it is an outbound connection, it connects across firewall restrictions. A remote debug machine sends a message via the message server to the receiving device over a network. The message carries the command/operation to be executed by the receiving device. The receiving device, which receives the command, executes the command and sends the output of the command to a debug data upload server to which the remote debug machine has access.

Abstract: Methods and systems for resolving one or more faults in a security camera include installing an Auto-Executable Function (AEF) on the security camera. The AEF causes the controller to backup the set of user defined configuration settings to a memory of the security camera, reset the security camera back to the set of default configuration settings, reboot the security camera, and restore the set of user defined configuration settings. In many cases, this will resolve many unresolved faults within video camera and place the video camera back online. When this does not resolve a fault, the AEF creates a diagnostic report, wirelessly transmits the diagnostic report to a mobile device of a user, the mobile device identifies a software patch for resolving the fault, and the software patch is uploaded and installed on the security camera.
