Abstract: Systems and methods validate the operation of a component of an executable model without inadvertently altering the behavior of the component. The model may be partitioned into a design space and a verification space. The component may be placed in the design space, while an observer for validating the component may be placed in the verification space, and linked to the component. During execution of the model, input or output values for the component may be computed and buffered. Execution of the observer may follow execution of the component. The input or output values may be read out of the buffer, and utilized during execution of validation functionality defined for the observer. Model compilation operations that may inadvertently alter the behavior of the component, such as back propagation of attributes, are blocked between the observer and the component.

Abstract: A method for designing a system on a target device includes performing register retiming on an original design for the system to generate a retimed design. The retimed design is verified to determine whether it is structurally correct by performing a plurality of iterations of register retiming on the retimed design, wherein each iteration accounts for the register retiming of registers in the system driven by a different clock.

Abstract: System and methods for estimating a centerline of a road that separates traffic moving in opposite directions include aggregating a data set from each of a plurality of vehicles traversing the road over a period of time as telemetry data. Each data set of the telemetry data indicates a location and a heading. The method includes clustering the data sets of the telemetry data based on the heading indicated by each data set, and identifying a separator to separate the data sets indicating a first heading from the data sets indicating a second heading, opposite to the first heading. The centerline is estimated based on applying a spatial smoothing to the separator.

Abstract: An image of a check may be presented for payment in a banking system in place of the physical paper check. The check to be deposited can be collected from a depositor using a scanner. A web site, accessed through a depositor's web browser, can be used to drive the process of collecting the check, but in some contexts (e.g., in less popular computing environments, such as those that do not run the most popular operating systems), it is economically infeasible to obtain the certificates that would be used to allow a program executing in the web browser to control the scanner. Thus, a depositor can be instructed to capture and upload images of the check in the form of files, where the image files are then presented for payment through a banking system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for a content platform that receives a request to provide a digital component. The request includes information about users to which the digital component is directed. Futurized queries are obtained from serving logs of a serving system that is configured to execute an existing digital component using serving code that directs digital content to the set of users. The futurized queries are loaded as data structures in memory of a forecasting system. The system uses an instruction set derived from the serving code to determine that similarity between the particular futurized query and the request exceeds a threshold similarity. The system then generates a forecast output as a response to the request based on futurized queries that exceed the threshold similarity. The forecast output includes data describing future provision of the digital component.

Abstract: Distributed ledgered data is stored within a distributed persistent storage system comprising multiple persistent storage systems as distributed ledgered participants. In various embodiments, the distributed ledgered data is maintained using the native capabilities of a persistent storage system. The distributed ledgered data is replicated as persistent data objects in a “ledgered repository of objects” that are replicated at each of the persistent storage systems. Changes at one persistent storage system are recorded within a block in a distributed blockchain that is distributed across each of the other distributed ledgered participants. The other distributed ledgered participants read the changes from the blockchain and apply the changes to the respective replicas at each of the other distributed ledgered participants. Hence, this approach is referred to as blockchain apply. Blockchain apply may be used to replicate the repository objects of various forms of PSSs.
