Abstract: A method for ascertaining an explanation map of an image, in which all those pixels of the image are changed which are significant for a classification of the image ascertained with the aid of a deep neural network. The explanation map is selected in such a way that a smallest possible subset of the pixels of the image are changed, and the explanation map preferably does not lead to the same classification result as the image when it 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.

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 graphics processing system that includes one or more programmable shading stages, the shader compiler receives a shader program to be compiled (step 40), identifies any run time constant expressions in the shader program (step 41), and removes such expressions from the original shader program, and substitutes them in the original main shader program with appropriate load instructions pointing to where the output results from a pilot shader program will be stored (step 42). The shader compiler then creates a separate pilot shader program for the identified run-time constant expressions (step 43). The pilot shader program is then executed on the graphics processing pipeline (step 44), before the modified main shader program (step 45).
