Abstract: A connection assembly includes a first housing part, a second housing part pluggable with the first housing part, and a joint connector held between the first housing part and the second housing part. The first housing part has a plurality of contact element receptacles and a plurality of latching elements. The latching elements latch a plurality of contact elements in the contact element receptacles. The second housing part has a locking section locking one of the latching elements in a latching position. The joint connector connects at least two of the contact elements.

Abstract: A method for ascertaining an explanation map of an image. All those pixels of the image are highlighted which are significant for a classification of the image ascertained with the aid of a deep neural network. The explanation map is being selected in such a way that it selects a smallest possible subset of the pixels of the image as relevant. The explanation map leads to the same classification result as the image when the explanation map is supplied to the deep neural network for classification. The explanation map is selected in such a way that an activation caused by the explanation map does not essentially exceed an activation caused by the image in feature maps of the deep neural network.

Abstract: Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide local and/or remote control for one or more connected loads or remote appliances. A load control device includes controls for switching and varying the power to associated loads and also includes communication components for remote operations. A user interface device includes a configurable and user customizable interface to communicate control instructions to the load control device. The load control device and the user interface device may be installed as a single unit, mechanically and electrically coupled together, or they may be installed remote from each other. Accordingly, the load control device and the user interface device include wired and wireless communication capabilities.

Abstract: Sensor devices and corresponding methods are provided. When a signal path output (COMP OUT) indicates no threshold crossings, diagnosis is performed with a timing based on a clock. In case threshold crossings are indicated, diagnosis is performed with a timing based on threshold crossings.

Abstract: In a method for interferometrically capturing measurement points of a region of an eye, a plurality of measurement points are captured by a measurement beam along a trajectory, wherein the same trajectory is passed over by the measurement beam in the region during at least a first iteration and a second iteration. The trajectory of the first iteration is rotated through an angle and/or displaced by a distance in relation to the trajectory of the second iteration in order to obtain a more homogeneous measurement point distribution.

Abstract: A graphics processing system groups plural initial pilot shader programs into a set of initial pilot shader programs and associates the set of initial pilot shader programs with a set of indexes. The initial pilot shader programs each contain constant program expressions to be executed on behalf of an original shader program. The index for an initial pilot shader program is then used to obtain the instructions contained in the initial pilot shader program for executing the constant program expressions of the initial pilot shader program. The threads for executing a subset of the initial pilot shader programs are also grouped into a thread group and the threads of the thread group are executed in parallel. The graphics processing system provides for efficient preparation and execution of plural initial pilot shader programs.
