Abstract: A vehicle may operate in a first mode in which an electric motor operates in a forward state such that the rear ground traction members of the vehicle are driven forwardly by the electric motor while a hydraulic pump is powered by the electric motor and may alternatively operate in a second mode in which the electric motor operates in a reversed state such that the rear ground traction members are driven forwardly by the electric motor while the electric motor is operably decoupled from the hydraulic pump by a one-way clutch/bearing ring coupled between the electric motor and the hydraulic pump.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing open-loop quantum error mitigation using quantum measurement emulations are provided. The open-loop quantum error mitigation methods do not require the performance of state readouts or state tomography, reducing hardware requirements and increasing overall computation speed. To perform a quantum measurement emulation, an error mitigation apparatus is configured to stochastically apply a quantum gate to a qubit or set of qubits during a quantum computational process. The stochastic application of the quantum gate projects the quantum state of the affected qubits onto an axis, reducing a trace distance between the quantum state and a desired quantum state.

Abstract: One embodiment sets forth a technique for generating a tree structure within a computer memory for storing sparse data. The technique includes dividing a matrix into a first plurality of equally sized regions. The technique also includes dividing at least one region in the first plurality of regions into a second plurality of regions, where the second plurality of regions includes a first region and one or more second regions that have a substantially equal number of nonzero matrix values and are formed within the first region. The technique further includes creating the tree structure within the computer memory by generating a first plurality of nodes representing the first plurality of regions, generating a second plurality of nodes representing the second plurality of regions, and grouping, under a first node representing the first region, one or more second nodes representing the one or more second regions.

Abstract: A computer system may access data corresponding to a portfolio that comprises interest rate swaps and may calculate parameters for a compressed swap. The computer system may determine, based at least in part on the parameters for the compressed swap, a performance bond requirement attributable to the interest rate swaps. The computer system may compare the performance bond requirement to account data associated with a holder of the portfolio and may perform one or more additional actions based on the comparing.

Abstract: A home occupancy status and information system may be used to track information about human and animal occupants within a structure, and provide information to first responders in the event of an emergency. A rescue beacon may be positioned near an entrance to a home, and when an audible alarm or alarm signal is detected by the beacon it will provide visual alerts and/or audible alerts to attract the attention of a first responder, and will provide information on occupants in the home, such as a number of pets, a number of humans, and other information. A rescue device may also be carried by each pet or other occupant in the house, which may be activated by a wireless signal from a rescue beacon, or by a detected alarm audio/signal. When activated, the rescue device will provide audible and/or visual alerts to aid first responders in locating the occupant.

Abstract: A method of forming a liquid lens, comprising the steps of: positioning a first substrate defining a hole over a second substrate, wherein a cavity is defined within the second substrate and aligned with the hole; dispensing a second liquid into the cavity defined within the second substrate; capping the second liquid with a first liquid dispensed through the hole, wherein the first liquid and the second liquid have different refractive indices than each other; and translating at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate such that the hole is not aligned with the cavity.

Abstract: A gangway comprises a fixed platform and a support structure connected to the fixed platform in a manner that allows the support structure to rotate with respect to the fixed platform between a raised stowed position and a lowered deployed position. A self-raising assembly is operative to rotate the support structure from the deployed position to the stowed position. The self-raising assembly includes at least one fluid actuated cylinder connected between the fixed platform and a distal end of the support structure. A raising actuator is usable by an operator to cause operation of the cylinder in a manner that rotates the support structure toward the stowed position.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a lockable rooftop carrier clamp having a housing with a bore for accepting a frusto-conically shaped locking post. At least one, and preferably a pair of bolts are biased inwardly into the bore to capture the locking post. The bolts can be moved transversely outwardly by a cam on the outside wall of a hollow rotor located in the bore for pivotal rotation about an axis defined by the bore. The pivoting of the rotor is only allowed by the proper orientation of a tumbler core in a tumbler lock, which then allows either rotation of a release lever or retraction of a locking pin.
