Abstract: A database system is operable to generate query output based on executing a plurality of operators of a query operator execution flow for a query. Executing each operator can include generating a set of output query rows based on processing a set of input query rows, maintaining execution tracking data for the each operator that includes at least one counter tracking at least one event type, and generating a set of execution tracking rows based on sampling the execution tracking data. The query output includes a final set of rows corresponding to a query resultant and a final set of execution tracking rows generated by at least one final operator based on an aggregation of a plurality of sets of execution tracking rows generated by the plurality of operators.

Abstract: A journaling system provides access to subsets of user information in a segregated fashion. This permits its users to define access settings for their user information thereby limiting which other users may access the user information. In one or more embodiments, the journaling system may include a server or other computing device and one or more storage devices used to store the user information, associated access settings, or both. The access settings may define particular criteria which must be met before a subset of user information may be accessed, and may identify particular users that may access the subset of user information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, which bind to amplified epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and to the de2-7 EGFR truncation of the EGFR. In particular, the epitope recognized by the specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, is enhanced or evident upon aberrant post-translational modification. These specific binding members are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The binding members of the present invention may also be used in therapy in combination with chemotherapeutics or anti-cancer agents and/or with other antibodies or fragments thereof.

Abstract: A system for emitting light (such as a luminaire) includes a first light emitting diode (LED) string and a first LED driver that is electrically connected in parallel to the first LED string. The system also may include a second (or more) LED string(s), each associated with an additional LED driver. One-way conductors and normally-open switches are used so that if one LED driver fails, the remaining LED driver(s) will deliver power to the failed driver's LED string so that the light remains operational, but with a reduced brightness.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for clustering lane segments of a roadway in order to improve and simplify autonomous vehicle behavior testing. The approaches disclosed herein provide a hybrid methodology of dividing lane segments into hard features and soft features, and using a metric learning model trained in a supervised process on the entirety of lane segment features to cluster the lane segments based on the soft features. These clustered lane segments can then be assigned to what is termed as protolanes, where a single set of tests applied to a given protolane is considered valid across all of the lane segments assigned to the protolane.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product aspects for validating protolanes. For example, the method includes determining a protolane level flowchart from one or more flowcharts corresponding to one or more gates of a protolane selected from a set of protolanes of a geonet, wherein the one or more flowcharts correspond to conditions that can be encountered by an actor approaching the corresponding one or more gates, and wherein the geonet comprises a plurality of lane segments associated with the set of protolanes. A graph through the protolane level flowchart is generated that corresponds to actions of an actor. Reasoning of the actor is validated by testing the actions of the actor against the graph through the protolane level flowchart.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product aspects for testing autonomous vehicle intent using protolanes. For example, the method includes selecting a first lane segment of a roadway within a geonet, wherein the geonet comprises a plurality of lane segments. It is determined that the first lane segment corresponds to a protolane of a set of protolanes, wherein the protolane is associated with one or more additional lane segments of the plurality of lane segments. The protolane is associated with the first lane segment based on the determination that the first lane segment corresponds to the protolane.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product aspects for testing reuse across protolane families. For example, the method includes comparing a first protolane level flowchart to a second protolane level flowchart to determine a common graph corresponding to a portion of the first protolane level flowchart and a portion of the second protolane level flowchart. A first protolane corresponding to the first protolane level flowchart and a second protolane corresponding to the second protolane level flowchart within a protolane family are grouped based on the common graph, wherein a test directed to conditions of the common graph is applicable to the portion of the first protolane level flowchart and the portion of the second protolane level flowchart.

Abstract: Techniques for identifying a first process in a stream of event data. The techniques include accessing a stored signature for the first process, wherein the signature includes a plurality of features, and wherein the signature specifies a frequency and weight for each of the plurality of features; receiving a stream of event data having a plurality of events; selecting a window of event data that includes a subset of the plurality of events; calculating a first similarity between the signature for the first process and the event data within the window; and identifying the first process in the stream of event data when the first similarity is within a predetermined measure of similarity.

Abstract: A structuring assembly for structuring water in a water treatment system. The structuring assembly comprising a body portion, a tubular first layer defining an interior channel for passage of water, a plurality of structuring bodies positioned in the channel and a dampening layer positioned about the first tubular layer. In application in the water treatment system, as water passes through the channel and over the structuring bodies, dissolved oxygen content of the water is increased.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for measuring velocity of an object detected by a light detection and ranging (lidar) system. According to some aspects a method may include receiving a lidar dataset generated by the lidar system, transforming the lidar dataset into a first layer dataset and a second layer dataset, and converting the first layer dataset into a first image and the second layer dataset into a second image. The method may also include performing a feature detection operation that identifies at least one feature in the first image and the same feature in the second image, locating a first location of the feature in the first image and a second location of the feature in the second image, and generating a velocity estimate of the feature based on a difference between the first location and the second location and a difference between the different time intervals.
