Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for identifying the reliability of objects within a mapped region for localization and facilitating autonomous control of a vehicle. Methods may include: receiving an indication of an event having event data; assigning at least one object at a location of the event an impact score based on an estimated impact of the event; and providing an indication of a reduction in autonomous vehicle capability in response to the impact score failing to satisfy a predetermined value. The impact score may include a probability that the corresponding object is reliable for localization or autonomous vehicle control. Methods may include providing the indication of a reduction in autonomous vehicle capability to at least one device associated with a vehicle in response to the at least one device associated with the vehicle having a travel path including the at least one road link.

Abstract: Example methods and systems are directed to a decentralized computing arrangement including a management system connected to a wide area network. The management system has a publish/subscribe messaging platform and a platform manager to provide an application for installation on edge devices. Each edge device has a wide area network interface to connect to the wide area network thereby to receive configuration data from the management system to install the application on the edge device. The edge device further includes a messaging interface to receive messages from the publish/subscribe messaging platform. The messages control installation of the application and allow communications between the edge device and the management system based on topics.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for improving user experiences for autonomous driving. In context of a method, the method determines one or more autonomous transition region parameters for a respective autonomous transition region along a route. The method also, based on the one or more autonomous transition region parameters, determines whether an action is to be performed by a vehicle in accordance with user preference data associated with a user. The method also causes the vehicle to perform the action in accordance with a determination that the action is to be performed by the vehicle.

Abstract: Articles, such as sanitary tissue products, including fibrous structures, and more particularly articles including fibrous structures having a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the article exhibits differential cellulose content throughout the thickness of the article and methods for making same are provided.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining an electric vehicle score are provided. For example, a method for determining an electric vehicle score includes receiving mobility pattern data corresponding to an individual. The method also includes analyzing one or more characteristics associated with an area based on the mobility pattern data. The method also includes determining an electric vehicle score corresponding to the individual based on the analysis of the one or more characteristics associated with the area.

Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for providing audio-based navigation. In one example, the apparatus determines reliability of a navigation technique for a vehicle. If the navigation technique is unreliable, the apparatus causes the vehicle to rely on audio-based navigation to traverse a route. The audio-based navigation provides one or more navigational instructions based on a sound signature associated with a location.

Abstract: Discretizers that exhibit improved solid additive laden fluid flow emanating from the discretizers and methods of using same, particularly for making fibrous structures are provided.

Abstract: Articles, such as sanitary tissue products, including fibrous structures, and more particularly articles including fibrous structures having a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the article exhibits differential cellulose content throughout the thickness of the article and methods for making same are provided.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for managing autonomous vehicles. In this regard, vehicle context data associated with an indication of a change in an autonomous level for a vehicle traveling along a road segment is determined. Furthermore, the vehicle is assigned to a queue of vehicles traveling along the road segment in response to a determination that the vehicle context data corresponds to particular vehicle context data associated with the queue of vehicles. An indication of the queue of vehicles may also be provided to the vehicle to facilitate navigation of the vehicle.

Abstract: An assembly and method of forming a disposable container lid dispenser assembly and which is constructed to sequentially dispense respective container lids from a stack of container lids housed in the dispenser assembly. The dispenser assembly is generally defined by a tube, a pressure plate assembly and a door assembly. The door assembly is movable relative to the tube to allow loading of the tube with a stack of lids and supports a cover that is moveable relative to a door. The door and cover cooperate with one another to define an extraction gap shaped to allow manual extraction of a discrete lid from the stack of lids contained in the dispenser assembly. A plurality of deflectable projections extend across the extraction gap and operate to ensure separation of discrete lid from the remainder of the stack of lids during each extraction event.

Abstract: Articles, such as sanitary tissue products, comprising fibrous structures, and more particularly articles comprising fibrous structures comprising a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the articles exhibit improved consumer relevant properties, for example improved bulk and absorbent properties, compared to known articles and methods for making same are provided.

Abstract: Articles, such as sanitary tissue products, including fibrous structures, and more particularly articles including fibrous structures having a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the article exhibits differential cellulose content throughout the thickness of the article and methods for making same are provided.

Abstract: The invention provides compounds of Formula (I) as described herein, along with pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and methods to use these compounds, salts and compositions for treating viral infections, particularly infections caused by herpesviruses.

Abstract: Articles, such as sanitary tissue products, including fibrous structures, and more particularly articles including fibrous structures having a plurality of fibrous elements wherein the article exhibits differential cellulose content throughout the thickness of the article and methods for making same are provided.

Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for predicting road locations that are likely to induce tire pressure changes. In one example, the apparatus receives historical data of an event in which a first vehicle is impacted by a first tire pressure change at a first road segment. The historical data indicates point-of-interest (POI) information associated with the first road segment. The apparatus trains a prediction model using the historical data. The prediction model is configured to determine a likelihood in which a second road segment induces a second tire pressure change for a second vehicle based on POI information associated with the second road segment.

Abstract: Novel fibrous structures that contain filaments, and optionally, solid additives, such as fibers, for example wood pulp fibers, sanitary tissue products comprising such fibrous structures, and methods for making such fibrous structures and/or sanitary tissue products are provided.
