Abstract: A method for generating a musical composition based on user input is described. A first set of musical characteristics from a first input musical piece is received as an input vector. The first set of musical characteristics is perturbed to create a perturbed input vector as input in a first set of nodes in a first visible layer of an unsupervised neural net. The unsupervised neural net comprised of a plurality of computing layers, each computing layer composed of a respective set of nodes. The unsupervised neural net is operated to calculate an output vector from a higher level hidden layer in the unsupervised neural net. The output vector is used to create an output musical piece.

Abstract: A circuit includes a voltage bus, a load, a plurality of switches, a controller, an encoder, a first switch group, and a second switch group. The first switch group is electrically connected between the voltage bus and the load. The second switch group is also electrically connected between the voltage bus and the load. The controller provides a first output signal indicating a required number of switches to be turned on to meet a power demand of the load. The encoder is configured to select a first combination of on/off states of the first switch group and the second switch group based on (i) the first output signal from the controller and (ii) a second combination of on/off states of the first switch group and the second switch group, and in response to selecting the first combination, transmit a switch signal to effect the first combination.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided, in a Not AND (NAND) flash memory device, for providing hybrid error correction management. A NAND flash memory module and a node controller coupled to the NAND flash memory module are provided along with a hardware logic implemented error correction code (ECC) engine associated with the node controller. The node controller is configured to determine whether an error count is less than or equal to a first threshold number of error bits and, in response to the error count being less than or equal to the first threshold number of error bits, performing correction of the error bits by the hardware logic implemented ECC engine associated with the node controller. The node controller is also configured to forward uncorrected data to a software logic implemented ECC engine, in response to the error count being greater than the first threshold number of error bits.

Abstract: A method for generating a musical composition based on user input is described. A first set of musical characteristics is extracted from a first input musical piece. The first set of music characteristics is prepared as an input vector into an unsupervised neural net comprised of a plurality of computing layers by perturbing the first set of musical characteristics according to a user intent expressed in the user input to create a perturbed vector. The perturbed vector is input into the first set of nodes of the unsupervised neural net. The unsupervised neural net is operated to calculate an output vector from a highest set of nodes. The output vector is used to create an output musical piece.
