Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for determining a minimal list size to use in list decoding operations for reducing resource consumption (e.g., compute, memory, and power) at a decoder. A method includes receiving a codeword comprising a plurality of channel bits encoded with an error-correcting code, the plurality of channel bits comprising, at least, a plurality of information bits, determining a payload size of the codeword, determining a channel capacity metric for the plurality of channel bits, determining a minimal list size for a list decoding operation based on at least the payload size and the channel capacity metric; and performing the list decoding operation on the codeword based on the minimal list size to obtain the plurality of information bits.

Abstract: Techniques for generating heatmap overlays, for presentation with interactive web pages of websites are described. Consistent with embodiments, client-side scripting is used to obtain heatmap data (derived from website usage data) from a data analytics service, and generate from the heatmap data an overlay showing a heatmap. The heatmap includes heatmap blobs positioned and colored to indicate the web page elements that have been clicked most frequently.

Abstract: Melanin compositions include a melanin pigment incorporated within polymeric particles, usually within an internal pore network defined by a polymeric particle matrix. The melanin compositions may be produced by in situ oxidation of melanin precursors within the pore network, or by absorption of a melanin pigment in a suitable vehicle or carrier. The melanin compositions are found to display enhanced absorbance of ultraviolet radiation and better cosmetic attributes when compared to melanin pigments which are not incorporated in such a polymeric particle matrix.

Abstract: Melanin compositions include a melanin pigment incorporated within an internal pore network defined by a polymeric particle matrix. The melanin compositions may be produced by in situ oxidation of melanin precursors within the pore network, or by absorption of a melanin pigment dispersed in a suitable vehicle or carrier. The melanin compositions are found to display enhanced absorbance of ultraviolet radiation when compared to melanin pigments which are not incorporated in such a polymeric particle matrix.
