Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an 5G Massive MIMO Radio Unit (MRU) that is connected to a Combined Central and Distributed Unit (CCDU) on front haul interface using 25G optical interface and is compliant to 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) based ORAN (Open Radio Access Network) specifications. The proposed 5G MRU can include a lower PHY (Physical) portion of L1 layer with network layer split of 7.2×, a baseband section, a RF (Radio Frequency) Front End module (RFEM), and an Antenna Filter Unit (AFU) as part of a single enclosure/unit for easy and efficient installation.

Abstract: A client machine writes to and reads from a virtual disk on a remote storage platform. Metadata is generated and stored in replicas on different metadata nodes of the storage platform. A modified log-structured merge tree is used to store and compact string-sorted tables of metadata. During file storage and compaction, a consistent file identification scheme is used across all metadata nodes. A fingerprint file is calculated for each SST (metadata) file on disk that includes hash values corresponding to regions of the SST file. To synchronize, the fingerprint files of two SST files are compared, and if any hash values are missing from a fingerprint file, then the key-value-timestamp triples corresponding to these missing hash values are sent to the SST file that is missing them. The SST file is compacted with the missing triples to create a new version of the SST file. The synchronization is bi-directional.

Abstract: A disaster recovery site storage array causes an instance of a host application or selected executables running on a host server to validate changes to an asynchronously updated replica of a storage object. Snapshots of the replica are generated before and after each set of changes to the replica are received from a remote storage array. Validation is performed by mounting snapshots to the instance of the associated host application and causing the host application instance to validate the data. If a snapshot is determined to be invalid, then the replica to recovered with the most recent known-valid snapshot. Alternatively, if each set of changes is validated prior to being applied to the replica, invalid changes are not applied to the replica. Unvalidated snapshots may be accumulated and validated independently from application of sets of changes to the replica, thereby decoupling validation from replication.

The pathway is detected through the debris to the environment outside the collapsed structure based on measuring the fresh air flow drawn from the different directions.

Abstract: The systems and methods disclosed herein receive alphanumeric characters defining operative boundaries for expected model use cases, along with operational data. The expected model use cases share common attributes, which are used by a first AI model to construct observed model use cases from the operational data. Each observed model use case includes features such as a text-based description, expected input and output, AI model(s) generating the expected output from the input, and/or data supporting the AI models. For each observed model use case, a second AI model maps the alphanumeric characters and features to a risk category, selecting from multiple risk categories based on the level of risk associated with the features. The system identifies criteria for the observed model use case within the alphanumeric characters and generates gaps by comparing the criteria with the features of the observed model use case.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for generating a texture for a three-dimensional (3D) facial model. For example, a process can include obtaining a first frame, the first frame including a first portion of a face. In some aspects, the process can include generating a 3D facial model based on the first frame and generating a first facial feature corresponding to the first portion of the face. In some examples, the process includes obtaining a second frame, the second frame including a second portion of the face. In some cases, the second portion of the face at least partially overlaps the first portion of the face. In some examples, the process includes combining the first facial feature with the second facial feature to generate an enhanced facial feature, wherein the combining is performed to enhance an appearance of select areas of the enhanced facial feature.

Abstract: Read and write transducer elements have very high reliability for most of their respective lives. Only a small percentage of transducer elements fail after a significant duration of operation in the field, but failure rate ramps up significantly with as the transducer elements age, particularly with heavy read and write use. Prior solutions to this problem involve regularly running data field integrity checks. However, the data field integrity checks are resource intensive and yield significant latency impacts. The presently disclosed technology renders data field integrity checks (that come with high latency costs) dependent upon periodic or continuous head health monitoring schemes (that come with low latency costs). The data field integrity checks are triggered by a “poor health” signal generating from the head health monitoring schemes rather than being continuously or periodically performed with no regard to projected head health.

Abstract: A decoder device can include an input to provide a stream of data elements to a data decoding pipeline. The device can further include an early termination element coupled at a coupling point of one or more of the input or at a pipeline stage of the data decoding pipeline. The early termination element can remove a data element from the stream at the respective coupling point based on a determination that the data element is to be removed from the stream. The early termination element can further provide the removed data element to output circuitry of the decoder device. Other methods and apparatuses are described.

Responsive to identifying a second column as comprising categorical data, sketches are generated for the categorical data for each of the time steps, and the sketches for the categorical data are stored as a second time series of sketches. When a query is received, a response to the query is provided using sketches from the first time series of sketches and/or the second time series of sketches.

Abstract: A physical therapy or palpation evaluation or diagnosis device, system, and method for evaluating the condition of a patient's body, for example, the spine and/or soft tissue. The physical therapist currently uses palpation to subjectively evaluate the condition of the spine, soft tissue and/or muscle of the patient. The physical therapist assigns a subjective score (from 0-10) based on the stiffness and/or mobility of the vertebrae. If a different physical therapist examines the same patient later in the treatment process, the subjective evaluation from the prior therapist would be difficult to interpret.
