Abstract: An Internet-connected device, such as a car, refrigerator, or even a laptop can use a second device, such as a cell phone, to support cryptographic operations and communication with token service providers or other processing services requiring pre-provisioned capabilities that may include cryptographic secrets. By removing the need to store personally sensitive data in “Internet of Things” (IoT) devices, a user's personal information and other sensitive financial information may be contained to a relatively small number of devices. This may help prevent theft of goods or services by IoT devices that are not always under the close control of the user.

Abstract: Techniques are described for controlling operation of a pixel conversion ADC in a manner that enforces strict timing and synchronization of ramp and clock signaling. Synchronizing techniques can be applied to generate a corrected ramp start signal based on synchronizing a received ramp start signal to an input clocking signal, and to generate a controller clock signal based on synchronizing an input clocking signal to the corrected ramp start signal. The corrected ramp start signal and the controller clock signal can be used to control generation of a ramp enable signal for controlling timing of pixel ramp voltage generation digital pixel conversion counting, and to control generation of an output clocking signal used by the digital pixel conversion counting.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are described herein that enable execution of a large AI model on a memory-constrained target device that is communicatively connected to a parameter server, which stores a master copy of the AI model. The AI model may be dissected into smaller portions (e.g., layers or sub-layers), and each portion may be executed as efficiently as possible on the target device. After execution of one portion of the AI model is finished, another portion of the AI model may be downloaded and executed at the target device. To improve efficiency, the input samples may be divided into microbatches, and a plurality of microbatches executing in sequential order may form a minibatch. The size of the group of microbatches or minibatch can be manually or automatically adjusted to reduce the communication overhead.

Abstract: A radar system and a method for detecting a target using the radar system. The radar system includes a waveform generator, a plurality of phase shifters, at least one mixer, an analog-to-digital converter, a fast Fourier transform (FFT) processor, and a processor. The waveform generator generates a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) signal including a set of chirps repeated for a predetermined number of times. The phase shifters shift a phase of each chirp on a transmit branch. The phases transmitted via first and second transmit branches are shifted in accordance with first and second sets of regularly spaced phases, respectively. The first and second sets of regularly spaced phases have first and second phase differences, respectively, that are different from each other. The FFT processor performs FFT processing and the processor determines an angle of direction of the target based on range Doppler map bins.

Abstract: A method of treating a mammalian subject having hematologic, non-tumorous cancer cells is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: (A) administering to such a mammalian subject a therapeutically effective amount of a halogenated xanthene, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a C1-C4 alkyl ester thereof as a first cancer cytotoxic agent dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable aqueous medium. The mammalian subject is maintained for a period of time sufficient to induce death of hematologic, non-tumorous cancer cells. A contemplated administration is typically repeated. A contemplated treatment method can also be carried out in conjunction with administration to said mammalian subject of a second therapeutically effective amount of a second, differently-acting cancer cytotoxic agent dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable medium. The second cancer cytotoxic agent can be a small molecule or an intact antibody or paratope-containing portion thereof.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for a transfer model learning for relevance models are described herein. In an example, a system for member relevance prediction is adapted to collect a first data set of member interactions with the online service that occur on a first platform and train a first model using the first data set. The system for member relevance prediction may collect a second data set of member interactions with the online service that occur on a second platform. The system for member relevance prediction may predict a third data set related to member interactions using the first model and aggregate the first data set, the second data set, and the third data set. The system for member relevance prediction may train a second model for the second platform using the aggregated platform data and predict for the second platform, using the second model, online service items for the member.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for managing a high performance, fault-tolerant, strongly consistent, distributed key-value store system. The key-value store may store information, such as metadata for a distributed file system. Fault-tolerance means that the distributed key-value store continues to provide access to values in the key-value store in spite of a certain number of node failures. To provide this capability, the key-value store may store copies of (key, value) pair on N+1 nodes in order to provide fault tolerance for the failure of up to N nodes. In addition, metadata describing which nodes store a given value is stored on 2N+1 nodes and the distributed key-value store is sized such that there are 3N+1 nodes in a cluster. Doing so allows the key, value store to tolerate a failure of N nodes, while still maintaining a consistent and available key-value store.
