Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for assisting users in creating quantum circuits. Quantum logic gates of a quantum circuit (being designed by a user) that are to be grouped together are identified. Upon identifying such quantum logic gates, those quantum logic gates are grouped together into a grouped set of quantum logic gates. Upon forming a grouped set of quantum logic gates, filters are displayed in connection with the quantum circuit being designed by the user, where each of these filters is configured to display particular information (e.g., which gates form the grouped set of quantum logic gates, illustrate how the grouped set of quantum logic gates is transpiled to a hardware system) regarding the grouped set of quantum logic gates. For example, such filters may be visually displayed on the top of the quantum circuit being built by the user in a graphical user interface.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to configuring and operating Internet of things (IoT) elements connected by a network. A computing device receives a request to generate a rule for coordinating operation of a plurality of IoT elements. The computing device determines whether the request satisfies restrictions as described in descriptions of interface components of the plurality of IoT elements in the computing device by referencing descriptions of interface components. The interface components correspond to the plurality of IoT elements. The computing device generates the rule responsive to determining that the request satisfies the restrictions, and sends an action signal over the network based on the rule to operate one or more of the plurality of IoT elements.

The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to: receive data describing a current location and a travel speed associated with a user; determine a travel status associated with the user based on the current location and the travel speed; create a zone of relevance for the user based on the travel status, the zone of relevance including one or more regions with each region being mapped to one or more regional circles; generate one or more queries for the zone of relevance; retrieve one or more query results that match the zone of relevance using the one or more queries; process the one or more query results to generate zone information relevant to the user; and provide the zone information to the user.

Abstract: The disclosure includes a system and method for providing personalized recommendations. The system includes a navigation application comprising a route engine, an intersection extractor, a historical analyzer and a user interface module. The processing unit receives data and transmits the data to the corresponding component in the navigation application. The route engine determines a new route from a first location to a second location for a user, the new route comprising directions for each portion of the new route. The intersection extractor identifies intersections that occur on the new route. The historical analyzer determines historical routes traveled by the user, compares the new route to the historical route to identify which portions and intersections in the new route are familiar to the user and removes directions for the portions of the new route that are familiar. The user interface module provides the new route to the user.

Abstract: Methods of constructing a stability style index from a parent index comprising assets performed by one or more computing devices. A score is assigned to each of one or more stability variables for each asset based at least in part on a value of the stability variable. A quality score is assigned to each asset based at least in part on the score assigned to each stability variable for the asset. A score is assigned to each of one or more volatility variables for each asset based at least in part on a value of the volatility variable. A volatility score is assigned to each asset based at least in part on the score assigned to each volatility variable for the asset. A probability score is assigned to each asset as a function of the quality and volatility scores. The probability scores are used to construct the stability style index.
