Abstract: The technology described herein determines whether a candidate text is in a requested class by using a generative model that may not be trained on the requested class. The present technology may use of a model trained primarily in an unsupervised mode, without requiring a large number of manual user-input examples of a label class. The may produce a semantically rich positive example of label text from a candidate text and label. Likewise, the technology may produce from the candidate text and the label a semantically rich negative example of label text. The labeling service makes use of a generative model to produce a generative result, which estimates the likelihood that the label properly applies to the candidate text. In another aspect, the technology is directed toward a method for obtaining a semantically rich example that is similar to a candidate text.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods to eliminate (or filter) drift for dynamics model based localization of multirotors. The dynamics equations require drag modelling, which is dependent on velocity, to generate vehicles' acceleration along the body axis. The present disclosure considers the drag contribution, at velocity level, as a low frequency component. Incorrect or nonmodelling of this low frequency component leads to drift at velocity level. This drift can then be removed through a high pass filter to obtain drift free velocity data for pose estimation and better localization thereof.

Abstract: Alternate sideband signaling in a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) express (PCIE) link may be enabled over existing sideband lines in a conventional PCIE link. For example, the default sideband communication of PCIE may be changed to a Universal Asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART), line multiplex UART (LM-UART), serial peripheral interface (SPI), I2C, or I3C mode of communication. This change may be negotiated between the host and slave of the communication link, with a transition occurring after the negotiation concludes. The new mode of communication may include or encode the conventional PCIE sideband signals.
