Abstract: Performance of a substitute upstream processing component is tested, in order to determine whether that performance is sufficient to support a downstream processing component, within an autonomous driving system, in place of an existing upstream processing component. The existing upstream processing component and the substitute upstream processing component are mutually interchangeable in so far as they provide the same form of outputs interpretable by the downstream processing component, such that either upstream processing component may be used without modification to the downstream processing component. A direct or indirect metric-based comparison is formulated in terms of the resulting performance of the downstream processing component.

Abstract: Techniques and architecture are described for securing traffic between nodes of a network against quantum computing attacks. For example, a first node of a network generates a random number input string and provides the random number input string to a second node. The first node may use the random number input string to generate at least one first key and an associated identifier. The first node may forward the associated identifier to the second node. Using the random number input string, the second node may generate at least one second key. Based at least in part on the associated identifier, the second node may select the at least one second key as a common encryption key. The at least one second key and the at least one first key are identical. Based at least in part on the common encryption key, the nodes may encrypt and decrypt traffic between them.

Abstract: This present disclosure proposes a system and method for providing a 3D computer vision-assisted frictionless self-checkout experience in a traditional retail store by using two RGB-D camera sensors and a conveyer belt. The disclosure provides a self-checkout counter (106) that enables a customer (102) to go through a self-service checkout process by simply placing the collected products one by one on a conveyer belt. One vertical and another horizontal RGB-D sensor (108) mounted in a housing frame attached towards the end of the conveyer belt capture RGB and depth image of each product passing through the housing and pass it to a product recognition engine (216). The engine (216) identifies the unique product along with its volumetric attributes processing the RGB-D data that is further compared with a master product database and processed for invoicing.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for reporting diagnostics data by a first network device to a cloud-based Wide Area Network (WAN) assurance system, responsive to the first network device detecting a communication issue with the cloud-based WAN assurance system. For example, the first network device detects an issue with sending telemetry data to the cloud-based WAN assurance system via a first communication path. In response, the first network device determines a second network device that has connectivity to the WAN assurance system. The first network device sends diagnostics data to the second network device along a second communication path for forwarding to the cloud-based WAN assurance system. The cloud-based WAN assurance system receives the diagnostics data from the second network device. The cloud-based WAN assurance system controls the second network device to remediate the first network device based on the diagnostics data.
