Abstract: A method performed by a computer is disclosed. The method comprises receiving interaction data between electronic devices of a plurality of entities. The interaction data is used to form an entity interaction vector containing a number of interactions between the electronic devices of a chosen entity and an entity time series containing a plurality of metrics per unit time of the interactions. An interaction encoder of the computer can generate an interaction hidden representation of the entity interaction vector using embeddings of the plurality of entities. A temporal encoder of the computer can generate a temporal hidden representation of the entity time series. The interaction hidden representation and the temporal hidden representation can be used to generate a predicted scale and a shape estimation of a target interaction metric. The computer can then generate an estimated interaction metric of a time period using the predicted scale and the shape estimation.

Abstract: An electronic device may have an ambient light sensor for gathering ambient light measurements. The ambient light sensor may include multiple channels for measuring different wavelengths of ambient light. An additional, modified, channel may be formed in the ambient light sensor to measure radio-frequency signals that may interfere with the ambient light measurements due to electromagnetic interference. Alternatively, circuitry separate from the ambient light sensor, such as an antenna, may measure the radio-frequency signals. If the radio-frequency signals exceed a threshold, the ambient light sensor measurements taken in the presence of the radio-frequency signals may be discarded or corrected. If the radio-frequency signals do not exceed a threshold, the ambient light sensor measurements may be kept. Therefore, the ambient light measurements that are kept and relied upon by the electronic device may be free from electromagnetic interference.

Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems to resolve return signals among pixels in lidar systems. The described lidar system transmits signals with different waveforms for consecutive pixels to associate return signals with their corresponding pixels. During a detection window, the lidar system receives a return signal and compares it in the frequency domain to at least two template signals. The template signals include the waveform of an initial pixel and a subsequent pixel of two consecutive pixels, respectively. The lidar system then determines, based on the comparison to the template signals, the pixel to which the return signal corresponds and determines a characteristic of an object that reflected the return signal. In this way, the lidar system can confidently resolve detections to reduce the time between pixels. This improvement allows the described lidar system to operate at faster scanning speeds and realize a faster reaction time for automotive applications.
