Abstract: “Just in time” operational techniques allow equipment of swimming pools or spas to achieve identified water temperatures at specified times. A user may supply information such as a desired water temperature (i.e. a temperature set point) and a time at which the water is desired to be at the desired temperature. After receiving the user-supplied information, software may account as well for certain environmental conditions to devise a suitable schedule for controlling heating of the water of the swimming pool or spa. Adjustments may be made to the schedule based on then-current water temperatures or other changed conditions.

Abstract: A deconvolution can be decomposed into multiple convolutions. Results of the convolutions constitute an output of the deconvolution. Zeros may be added to an input tensor of the deconvolution to generate an upsampled input tensor. Subtensors having the same size as the kernel of the deconvolution may be identified from the upsampled input tensor. A subtensor may include one or more input activations and one or more zeros. Subtensors having same distribution patterns of input activations may be used to generate a reduced kernel. The reduced kernel includes a subset of the kernel. The position of a weight in the reduced kernel may be the same as the positions of an input activation in the subtensor. Multiple reduced kernels may be generated based on multiple subtensors having different distribution patterns of activations. Each of the convolutions may use the input tensor and a different one of the reduced kernels.

Moreover, a saliency loss function can compare the saliency values provided by the saliency map for the processed image data within the region of interest to one or more target saliency values. Subsequently, the one or more parameter values of the image editing operator can be modified based at least in part on the saliency loss function.
