Abstract: Techniques for determining map data by a vehicle in near real-time are described herein. For example, the techniques may include a vehicle computing device determining view data representing different views of an environment based on sensor data from two or more sensors of the vehicle. A machine learned model can receive the view data and historical data (e.g., a state of a detected object) as input data and generate a map of features proximate the vehicle that include lane information, connections between lanes, road topology, traffic signs, a drivable surface boundary, and/or region information (e.g., a construction zone, occluded region, etc.). The map can be used by a planning component of the vehicle computing device to predict a vehicle trajectory for the vehicle to navigate in the environment.

Abstract: One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to an interchangeable grip for a hand tool that facilitates a robust, serviceable connection between the interchangeable grip and a tool handle.

Abstract: Methods and systems for training one or more neural networks for transcription and for transcribing a media file using the trained one or more neural networks are provided. One of the methods includes: segmenting the media file into a plurality of segments; inputting each segment, one segment at a time, of the plurality of segments into a first neural network trained to perform speech recognition; extracting outputs, one segment at a time, from one or more layers of the first neural network; and training a second neural network to generate a predicted-WER (word error rate) of a plurality of transcription engines for each segment based at least on outputs from the one or more layers of the first neural network.

Abstract: A device comprising a syringe comprising a plunger and a barrel having a longitudinal axis and a sample collection volume. The device further comprises a needle hub including an attachment device for connection with the syringe, and a syringe support connected to the needle hub. A needle is connected to the needle hub, the needle having a lumen. An internal needle is at least partially positioned within the lumen of the needle. The device further includes a motor that rotationally moves the internal needle within the needle. The needle has a first opening formed in a side of the needle, and the internal needle has a second opening formed in a side of the internal needle; and wherein material is allowed to enter when the second opening is aligned with the first opening, and wherein the material is cut when the second opening rotates past the first opening.

Abstract: Rather than randomly selecting neural networks to classify a media file, the conductor can determine which neural network engines (from the conductor ecosystem of neural networks) are the best candidates to classify a particular portion/segment of the media file (e.g., audio file, image file, video files). The best candidate neural network engine(s) can depend on the nature of the input media and the characteristics of the neural network engines. In object recognition and identification, certain neural networks can classify vehicles better than others, while another group of neural networks can classify structures better. The conductor can take out the guess work and construct in real-time an inter-classifier neural network using one or more layers selected from one or more pre-trained neural network, based on attribute(s) of the media file, to classify the media file.

Abstract: Integrated circuit structures having metal-containing fin isolation regions are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a vertical stack of horizontal nanowires over a first sub-fin. A gate structure is over the vertical stack of horizontal nanowires and on the first sub-fin. A dielectric structure is laterally spaced apart from the gate structure. The dielectric structure is not over a channel structure but is on a second sub-fin. A gate cut is between the gate structure and the dielectric structure. A dielectric gate cut plug is in the gate cut. The dielectric gate plug includes a metal-containing dielectric material.

Abstract: A molecular manufacturing process includes contacting a platform molecule with (i) a biocatalyst and (ii) a chemical catalyst under conditions suitable to produce a value-added chemical.

Abstract: In summary, the present disclosure is directed to a soft gel food supplement; formulated in eleven natural antiviral ingredients; to boost the immune system. The present disclosure contains natural antiviral antibacterial ingredients that makes the human immune system a more complex network of cells and proteins that defends the body against infection. The immune system keeps a record of every germ (microbe) it has ever defeated so it can recognize and destroy the microbe quickly if it enters the body again. Covid will attack everybody in its path. However, when a variant attempts to infect those who use the present disclosure dietary supplement formula and method, the immune system is nourished and ready to boost its normal function to the utmost in recognizing and destroying the virus and its variants efficiently.
