Abstract: A system is provided for a secure modular cloud-enabled resource exchange apparatus. In particular, the resource exchange apparatus may comprise a security box operatively coupled to one or more modular components, which may include computing components or devices and/or peripherals. The components of the resource exchange apparatus may be secured using security certificates and/or tokens associated with the input and/or output ports of each component. The computing device within the resource exchange apparatus may be communicatively coupled with a cloud server, from which the computing device may retrieve security certificates, configuration parameters, and/or the like. Upon detecting that a component has invalid certificate, the system may automatically disconnect and block the component. In this way, the system may ensure that only authorized devices may be used within the resource exchange apparatus.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to neuromuscular stimulation and sensing cuffs. The neuromuscular stimulation cuff has at least two fingers and a plurality of electrodes disposed on each finger. More generally, the neuromuscular stimulation cuff includes an outer, reusable component and an inner, disposable component. One or more electrodes are housed within the reusable component. The neuromuscular stimulation cuff may be produced by providing an insulating substrate layer, forming a conductive circuit on the substrate layer to form a conductive circuit layer, adhering a cover layer onto the conductive circuit layer to form a flexible circuit, and cutting at least one flexible finger from the flexible circuit. The neuromuscular stimulation cuff employs a flexible multi-electrode design which allows for reanimation of complex muscle movements in a patient, including individual finger movement.

Abstract: A convertible carrying case has a carrying strap, a first end of the strap is attached to the case housing near the top panel and the second end of the strap is slidably attached to an L-shaped guide member, the L-shaped guide member positioned at the periphery of the rear panel of the carrying case and adjacent the bottom panel and one side panel of the carrying case. The second end of the strap freely moves along the L-shaped guide member as the user manipulates the case between a rear carrying configuration, where the case is worn on the user's back, and a productivity configuration, where the case is supported against the abdomen of the user and the rear panel of the case is oriented upwardly, providing access through a flap on the rear panel to a laptop computer or other electronic device.

Abstract: A database system receives a query. The database system retrieves an old query execution plan (QEP), OldPlan, for the query. The database system submits the query to an optimizer. The optimizer returns a new QEP, NewPlan, for the query. The database system submits the OldPlan and the NewPlan to a machine learning classifier (ML classifier). The ML classifier predicts that executing the NewPlan will result in a performance regression as compared to executing the OldPlan. The database system executes the OldPlan instead of the NewPlan.

Abstract: A method of classifying terrain, terrain activity and materials through panchromatic imagery a module programmed to provide such classification and aerospace vehicles comprising such module is provided. Panchromatic images of known materials terrains and terrain activities are taken and processed to form a multiband texture cube, that due it amount of data, is stored as a computer data base. New panchromatic images of unclassified materials, terrains and/or terrain activities are processed and compared via computer with such database that allows for inexpensive, quick and efficient classification of such new images.

Abstract: In some examples, a system receives an input graph representation of one or more query plans for one or more database queries, and generates, by an embedding machine learning model based on the input graph representation, a feature vector that provides a distributed representation of the one or more query plans. The system determines, using the feature vector, one or more user behaviors and/or workload characteristics of one or more workloads in one or more database systems.
