Abstract: The present disclosure provides autonomous vehicle systems and methods that include or otherwise leverage a machine-learned yield model. In particular, the machine-learned yield model can be trained or otherwise configured to receive and process feature data descriptive of objects perceived by the autonomous vehicle and/or the surrounding environment and, in response to receipt of the feature data, provide yield decisions for the autonomous vehicle relative to the objects. For example, a yield decision for a first object can describe a yield behavior for the autonomous vehicle relative to the first object (e.g., yield to the first object or do not yield to the first object). Example objects include traffic signals, additional vehicles, or other objects. The motion of the autonomous vehicle can be controlled in accordance with the yield decisions provided by the machine-learned yield model.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide a wellness tracking device with a base plate that may be utilized as a combination electrode by a variety of sensors. The base plate may be a multi-material electrode that includes a conductor and a transparent or semi-transparent material to enable optical sensing. In certain embodiments, the base plate supports a plurality of different sensors, which may selectively utilize the base plate as an electrode.

Abstract: Photoresist pattern trimming compositions comprise a polymer, an aromatic sulfonic acid, and an organic-based solvent system, wherein the aromatic sulfonic acid is of general formula (I): wherein: Ar1 represents an aromatic group; R1 independently represents a halogen atom, hydroxy, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted carbocyclic aryl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic aryl, substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy, or a combination thereof, wherein adjacent R1 groups together optionally form a fused ring structure with Ar1; a represents an integer of 2 or more; and b represents an integer of 1 or more, provided that a+b is at least 3 and is not greater than the total number of available aromatic carbon atoms of Ar1, and two or more of R1 are independently a fluorine atom or a fluoroalkyl group bonded directly to an aromatic ring carbon atom.

Abstract: A polymer comprising a first repeating unit derived from a monomer comprising a hydroxy-aryl group; a second repeating unit derived from a monomer comprising a hydroxy-aryl group protected with an acetal or ketal group; a third repeating unit derived from a (meth)acrylate monomer comprising a cycloaliphatic group; and a fourth repeating unit derived from a monomer comprising an acid-sensitive group, wherein the first, the second, the third, and the fourth repeating units are different from each other.

Abstract: A polymer comprising: a first repeating unit comprising a tertiary ester acid labile group; and a second repeating unit of Formula (1): wherein R1 to R5 are as provided herein; R2 and R3 together do not form a ring; each A is independently a halogen, a carboxylic acid or ester, a thiol, a straight chain or branched C1-20 alkyl, a monocyclic or polycyclic C3-20 cycloalkyl, a monocyclic or polycyclic C3-20 fluorocycloalkenyl, a monocyclic or polycyclic C3-20 heterocycloalkyl, a monocyclic or polycyclic C6-20 aryl, or a monocyclic or polycyclic C4-20 heteroaryl, each of which is substituted or unsubstituted; and m is an integer of 0 to 4.
