Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to train one or more neural networks using stratified sampled training data parameters. In at least one embodiment, one or more stochastic training data parameters may be stratified sampled from one or more sampling ranges to compute a gradient for updating the one or more neural networks.

Abstract: A hand-held portable temperature-controlled device includes a cylindrical housing comprising an air inlet and an air outlet in fluid communication with each other. A fan can be located within the cylindrical housing, and a heat sink can be disposed adjacent to the fan. The hand-held portable temperature-controlled device can also include a controllable temperature element configured to generate heating and cooling. The hand-held portable temperature-controlled device can also include a heat spreader disposed adjacent to the controllable temperature element and configured to contact a face of a user. A top surface of the heat spreader can be oriented at a non-zero angle relative to a bottom surface of the heat spreader.

Abstract: A temperature controllable wrap assembly that includes a wrap portion configured to be worn around a user’s body part, and at least a first temperature control module positioned on the wrap portion. The first temperature control module includes a housing, a controllable temperature element, a spreader member and at least a first finger spreader pivotably attached to the spreader member. The lower surface of the spreader member is positioned to contact the user’s body part. The controllable temperature element is configured to transfer thermal energy to an upper surface of the spreader member, and the spreader member is configured to conduct thermal energy to the first finger spreader.

Abstract: A wearable temperature control assembly includes a temperature control module comprising a contact and a thermal element configured to heat or cool the contact. The assembly also includes a primary strap configured to receive the temperature control module and secure the contact against a subject. The assembly also includes a secondary strap configured to be connected to the primary strap. The secondary strap is configured to provide adjustment of a pressure between the contact and the subject when the primary strap secures the contact to the subject.

Abstract: Method of detecting objects in non-perspective images starts by generating an arrangement of tiles based on a field of view of a non-perspective camera lens, a predetermined size of the tiles, and a predetermined maximum object radius. The arrangement of the tiles includes the minimum number of tiles to cover the field of view. A non-perspective image is then captured using the non-perspective camera lens. The non-perspective image may be a still image frame or a video. Using the tiles, a plurality of images are generated, respectively, and at least a portion of a first object is detected in one or more images. The first object is generated using the one or more images that include the at least the portion of the first object, and the first object is displayed on a display interface. Other embodiments are described herein.

Abstract: An information-technology (IT) blueprint is an executable document that, when executed, can be used to create an IT application such as an e-commerce site. An IT lifecycle blueprint can further be used to manage (e.g., modify) and, ultimately, destroy such an IT application. To this end, an IT lifecycle blueprint can include idempotent methods that achieve the same result whether starting from a blank (real or virtual) infrastructure or from a previously populated infrastructure. In other words, the same method that created an IT application can be used to modify it. A request for a post-deployment modification can be made using a topological representation of a blueprint and highlighting the representations of components to which a selected modification could be applied.

An IT lifecycle blueprint can further be used to manage (e.g., modify) and, ultimately, destroy such an IT application. To this end, an automation engine for the blueprint can include idempotent methods to generate workflows that achieve the same result whether starting from a blank (real or virtual) infrastructure or from a previously populated infrastructure. If a workflow task fails, the workflow that included the task can be re-executed; alternatively, a new workflow can be generated based in part on the application configuration following a fix for the failure.

To this end, an IT lifecycle blueprint can include idempotent methods that achieve the same result whether starting from a blank (real or virtual) infrastructure or from a previously populated infrastructure. To effect a modification that is not within the scope of the blueprint that created the IT application, a new lifecycle blueprint can be created, if necessary, and executed to effect the modification. In a sense, the new lifecycle blueprint replaces the old lifecycle blueprint as a manager tool for the IT application.
