Abstract: Described herein are systems for roof scan using an unmanned aerial vehicle. For example, some methods include capturing, using an unmanned aerial vehicle, an overview image of a roof of a building from above the roof; presenting a suggested bounding polygon overlaid on the overview image to a user; determining a bounding polygon based on the suggested bounding polygon and user edits; based on the bounding polygon, determining a flight path including a sequence of poses of the unmanned aerial vehicle with respective fields of view at a fixed height that collectively cover the bounding polygon; fly the unmanned aerial vehicle to a sequence of scan poses with horizontal positions matching respective poses of the flight path and vertical positions determined to maintain a consistent distance above the roof; and scanning the roof from the sequence of scan poses to generate a three-dimensional map of the roof.

Abstract: An anti-theft device for securing an article of merchandise against unauthorized removal from a display counter. The anti-theft device includes a plurality of arms slidingly disposed within the housing. Grips are disposed on proximal ends of the arms and are configured to receive and secure edges of an article of merchandise. A locking mechanism is disposed within the housing of the anti-theft device. The locking mechanism involves an actuator that presses a locking component to engage at least one of the arms. The arms have a first set of teeth disposed thereon, such that, when the locking component engages at least one of the arms, the first set of teeth interlocks with a second set of teeth. The arms cannot slide relative to the housing while the first set of teeth and the second set of teeth remain interlocked.

Abstract: A process mimicking forward modeler with deposition and erosion at each specific geological time step. The 3D derived properties are high resolution depositional environments and rock properties that are used to generate multiscale labelled synthetic data. These synthetic data can range from 1D logs such as grain size, gamma ray, density, and velocity, to 3D synthetic seismic, and are used directly as training data for various AIML applications.

Abstract: A method and system for estimating the ground state energy of a quantum Hamiltonian. The disclosed algorithm may run on any hardware and is suited for early fault tolerant quantum computers. The algorithm employs low-depth quantum circuits with one ancilla qubit with classical post-processing. The algorithm first draws samples from Hadamard tests in which the unitary is a controlled time evolution of the Hamiltonian. The samples are used for evaluating the convolution of the spectral measure and a filter function, and then inferring the ground state energy from this convolution. Quantum circuit depth is linear in the inverse spectral gap and poly-logarithmic in the inverse target accuracy and inverse initial overlap. Runtime is polynomial in the inverse spectral gap, inverse target accuracy, and inverse initial overlap. The algorithm produces a highly-accurate estimate of the ground state energy with reasonable runtime using low-depth quantum circuits.

Abstract: In some examples, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) may include one or more processors configured to capture, with one or more image sensors, and while the UAV is in flight, a plurality of images of a target. The one or more processors may compare a first image of the plurality of images with a second image of the plurality of images to determine a difference between a current frame of reference position for the UAV and an estimate of an actual frame of reference position for the UAV. In addition, the one or more processors may determine, based at least on the difference, and while the UAV is in flight, an update to a three-dimensional model of the target.

Abstract: At a network device through which client devices communicate with a network, a database is created that maps Internet Protocol (IP) addresses each to a respective trust metric for a domain name associated with the IP address. An IP packet sent from a client device to the network and that indicates a destination IP address for a network-accessible resource associated with a domain name is intercepted. Using the destination IP address in the intercepted IP packet, the domain name trust metric mapped to the destination IP address is retrieved from the database. IP packets received from the destination IP address are processed based on the retrieved domain name trust metric and a predetermined trust metric criterion.
