Abstract: Provided are techniques for supporting a join operation against multiple NoSQL databases. A search request with a field and a value for the field is received, wherein the search request is to be issued against a plurality of database divisions formed from NoSQL databases. A simple database search is performed against a structured index to generate a first result set. An extended database search is performed against a linear database division index to generate a second result set by: identifying a relationship for the field that identifies related fields and identifying documents for the field and the related fields using a linear database division index. The first result set and the second result set are merged to form a merged result set of documents. The documents from the merged result set are displayed in response to the search request.

Abstract: In one embodiment, in response to a route from a source location to a target location, the route is analyzed to identify a list of one or more driving scenarios along the route that match one or more predetermined driving scenarios. The route is segmented into a list of route segments based on the driving scenarios. At least one of the route segments corresponds to one of the identified driving scenarios. A path is generated based on the route segments for driving an autonomous driving vehicle from the source location to the target location. The path includes a number of path segments corresponding to the route segments. At least one of the path segments of the path is determined based on a preconfigured path segment of a predetermined driving scenario associated with the path segment, without having to calculating the same at real time.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for propagating changes to a live website includes logically moving a second immutable delta partition located in a staging database of a staging environment to a production environment. The second immutable delta partition is a replica of a first immutable delta partition located in the staging database of the staging environment.

Abstract: An emotional state of a user and one or more images of one or more respective objects observed by the user in an environment using an augmented reality device are received. It is determined whether the one or more objects include at least one negative impact object having a source color that can be changed to improve the emotional state of the user. In response to a determination that the one or more objects include at least one negative impact object having a source color that can be changed to improve the emotional state of the user, the augmented reality device is caused to render the at least one negative impact object with a target color assigned to improve the emotional state of the user.

Abstract: A nuclear instrumentation system includes a source range channel, an intermediate range channel, and a power range channel. Each channel includes one detector installed around the pressure vessel. The detectors of the power range channel and the intermediate range channel both include several fission chambers. The detectors of the intermediate range channel and power range channel share several fission chambers. Since some detectors employ fission chambers, the Gamma radiation resistance property, anti-noise property, and anti-electromagnetic interference property are improved. Sharing fission chambers reduces the number of detectors to be installed, thus relieving the installation workload and the positioning of a follow-up detector. Further, the system increases the number of some channels, which increases redundancy and improves system reliability.

Abstract: An implantable device with in vivo functionality, where the functionality of the device is negatively affected by ROS typically associated with inflammation reaction as well as chronic foreign body response as a result of tissue injury, is at least partially surrounded by a protective material, structure, and/or a coating that prevents damage to the device from any inflammation reactions. The protective material, structure, and/or coating is a biocompatible metal, preferably silver, platinum, palladium, gold, manganese, or alloys or oxides thereof that decomposes reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide, and prevents ROS from oxidizing molecules on the surface of or within the device. The protective material, structure, and/or coating thereby prevents ROS from degrading the in vivo functionality of the implantable device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for detecting data redundancy within a database and optimizing data access operations. The embodiments identify a candidate column to determine the relationship between the candidate column against the remaining columns. The system calculates the vector angles of rows based on candidate column pairs and determines the difference in the angle between the candidate column and the corresponding rows of data in the comparison columns. If the candidate column has a greater angle than the compared column, then the compared column is identified as redundant and is marked for the decluttering process.

Abstract: A computing system performs file conversion upon format expiration. A computing system evaluates a risk of expiration of a first format associated with a first format object. The computing system determines if the risk of expiration is above a threshold. The computing system identifies in response to determining the risk of expiration is above the threshold, one or more files stored in the first format for conversion. The computing system converts one or more files stored in the first format to a second format. The computing system saves the one or more files in the second format.
