Abstract: A cable connector includes a first portion, a second portion, a first electrical prong, and a second electrical prong. The first portion defines a cavity. The second portion is adjacent to the first portion. The second portion includes a mounting structure defining a first cross-sectional void region within the cable connector and a second-cross-sectional void region within the cable connector opposite the first cross-sectional void region. The first electrical prong is disposed, in part, in the first cross-sectional void region and extends from the second portion. The second electrical prong is disposed, in part, in the second cross-sectional void region and extends from the second portion.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting tables within documents are provided. The methods and systems may include receiving a text of the document that includes a plurality of words depicted in the document image. Feature sets may be calculated for the words and may contain one or more features of a corresponding word of the text. Candidate table words may then be identified based on the features vectors, and may then be used to identify a table location within the document image. In some cases, the candidate table words may be identified using a machine learning model.

Abstract: A power and data center (PDC) can serve as a combined data concentrator and power distributor that delivers scalable and affordable network/power redundancy into an automotive electrical/electronic architecture (E/EA) that supports partially or fully autonomous vehicles. In some embodiments, a vehicle that includes the smart E/EA is divided into zones, where each zone includes one or more PDCs and one or more sensors, actuators, controllers, loudspeakers or other devices that are coupled to and powered by their zone PDC(s). Each PDC collects and processes (or passes through) raw or pre-processed sensor data from the one or more sensors in its zone. The sensors provide their data to the PDC by way of cost efficient, short-range data links. In some embodiments, one or more actuators in each zone are coupled to their respective zone PDC, and receive their control data from the PDC over a high-speed data bus or data link.

Abstract: An example communications cable includes a cable jacket, a pair of twisted conductors disposed within the cable jacket, and two or more insulating strands disposed within the cable jacket. The two or more insulating strands include a central insulating strand disposed between a first conductor in the pair of twisted conductors and a second conductor in the pair of twisted conductors.

Abstract: An example communications cable includes a core carrier disposed within a cable jacket. A pair of twisted conductors are partially disposed within the core carrier. A portion of the core carrier separates a first conductor in the pair of twisted conductors from a second conductor in the pair of twisted conductors.

Abstract: Polymer pellets are formed using laminar gas flow within a downstream gas conduit, as may be implemented consistent with one or more embodiments herein. A gas channel directs gas to an outlet of a polymer extrusion mandrel via which a polymer melt is extruded. A downstream gas conduit extends away from the outlet of the polymer extrusion mandrel, and provides laminar gas flow along the polymer melt extending from the extrusion mandrel, and within the downstream gas conduit. Using this approach, laminar flow can be maintained along an initial portion of the polymer melt, and used to control the subsequent formation of pellets therefrom.

Abstract: A system analyzer and a method for analyzing an impact of a change in a component of a distributed control system (DCS) are disclosed. The system can collect and store data representing the DCS components and their interconnection as well as signals of the DCS components. The DCS can be graphically modeled with nodes and directed edges, wherein a node represents either a type of DCS component or a signal of a DCS components, and wherein an edge is an “influence”-edge, or a “contains”-edge. Information on a change of a DCS components is received, a depth first or breadth first search is performed over the “influence”-edges and “contains”-edges and determine unchanged DCS components which would be affected by a malfunction, a removal or a taking out of operation of the at least one DCS component, and information on the affected DCS components is transmitted to an operator interface.
