Abstract: In various examples, infrared image data (e.g., frames of an infrared video feed) may be colorized by applying the infrared image data and/or a corresponding edge map to a generator of a generative adversarial network (GAN). The GAN may be trained with or without paired ground truth RGB and infrared (and/or edge map) images. In an example of the latter scenario, a first generator G(IR)?RGB and a second generator G(RGB)?IR may be trained in a first chain, their positions may be swapped in a second chain, and the second chain may be trained. In some embodiments, edges may be emphasized by weighting edge pixels (e.g., determined from a corresponding edge map) higher than non-edge pixels when backpropagating loss. After training, G(IR)?RGB may be used to generate RGB image data from infrared image data (and/or a corresponding edge map).

Abstract: A technique monitors input/output (I/O) and storage ownership takeover activity patterns to detect degraded performance of a highly available and fault tolerant application executing in a multi-site environment. Multiple instances of the application execute in different containers or pods running on virtual machines (VMs) of a compute layer within a containerized (e.g., Kubernetes) clustering configuration that extends across clusters of the sites. A storage layer of the clusters provides shared storage to the pods running on the VMs across the multiple sites. One of the sites is configured as an active storage site configured to receive and service I/O requests from the compute layer. A single instance of the application is active at a time and configured as a “compute owner” of the shared storage to issue the I/O requests to the shared storage.

Abstract: A system to generate an image classifier and test it nearly instantaneously is described herein. Image embeddings generated by an image fingerprinting model are indexed and an associated approximate nearest neighbors (ANN) model is generated. The embeddings in the index are clustered and the clusters are labeled. Users can provide just a few images to add to the index as a labeled cluster. The ANN model is trained to receive an image embedding as input and return a score and label of the most similar identified embedding. The label may be applied if the score exceeds a threshold value. The image classifier can be tested efficiently using Leave One Out Cross Validation (“LOOCV”) to provide near-instantaneous quality indications of the image classifier to the user. Near-instantaneous indications of outliers in the provided images can also be provided to the user using a distance to the centroid calculation.

Abstract: Techniques for graduated navigation displayed on an electronic device used in servicing items for users are described herein.

Abstract: Techniques for lane edge detection on an electrode sheet of a battery are described. In one aspect, scan data corresponding to a coating thickness of a plurality of bins distributed into a number of rows and columns across the electrode sheet is obtained. A first average coating thickness is computed for each column of the electrode sheet based on a number of bins identified in the column, based on which, a second average coating thickness is calculated for a first set of columns of the electrode sheet. A difference between the second average coating thickness and a standard deviation value is identified to compute an average minimum edge coating thickness, which is then compared with the first average coating thickness for each column to detect an edge transition of coated to uncoated region of the electrode sheet. Accordingly, a lane edge is determined for the column.

Abstract: System and methods for generating, validating, and augmenting question-answer pairs using generative AI are provided. An online interaction server accesses a set of digital content available at a set of designated network locations. The online interaction server further trains a pre-trained large language model (LLM) using the set of digital content to obtain a customized LLM. The online interaction server generates a set of question-answer pairs based on the set of digital content using the customized LLM and validates the set of question-answer pairs by determining if an answer in a question-answer pair is derived from the set of digital content. The online interaction server also selects a digital asset to augment an answer in a validated question-answer pair based on a semantic similarity between the validated question-answer pair and the digital asset.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for monitoring a patient for the occurrence of a cardiac arrhythmia. A computing system generates sample probability values by applying a machine learning model to sample patient data. The machine learning model determines a respective probability value that indicates a probability that the cardiac arrhythmia occurred during each respective temporal window. The computing system outputs a user interface comprising graphical data based on the sample probability values and receives, via the user interface, an indication of user input to select a probability threshold for a patient. The computing system receives patient data for the patient and applies the machine learning model to the patient data to determine a current probability value. In response to the determination that the current probability exceeds the probability threshold for the patient, the computing system generates an alert indicating the patient has likely experienced the occurrence of the cardiac arrhythmia.

Abstract: Systems of the present disclosure reduce end-to-end latency within a signal path of a wireless audio system by using a host synchronized link that bases synchronization on a start of frame signal from the host. The host synchronized link may be included in a transmitter. The use of the host-issued start of frame signal (e.g., from a USB controller) enables bypassing or omission of a sample rate converter. By bypassing the sample rate converter, the latency associated with the sample rate converter can be eliminated from the audio signal path.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for monitoring a patient for the occurrence of cardiac arrhythmias. A computing system obtains a cardiac electrogram (EGM) strip for a current patient. Additionally, the computing system may apply a first cardiac rhythm classifier (CRC) with a segment of the cardiac EGM strip as input. The first CRC is trained on training cardiac EGM strips from a first population. The first CRC generates first data regarding an aspect of a cardiac rhythm of the current patient. The computing system may also apply a second CRC with the segment of the cardiac EGM strip as input. The second CRC is trained on training cardiac EGM strips from a smaller, second population. The second CRC generates second data regarding the aspect of the cardiac rhythm of the current patient. The computing system may generate output data based on the first and/or second data.

Responsive to determining that an entry exists in the mapping table for the port on the peer device, whether a virtual function exists the port on the peer device in the mapping table for the same physical function is determined. A virtual function is selected from the mapping table to connect the local port to the port on the peer device.
