Abstract: Implementations described herein are directed to enabling collaborative ranking of interpretations of spoken utterances based on data that is available to an automated assistant and third-party agent(s), respectively. The automated assistant can determine first-party interpretation(s) of a spoken utterance provided by a user, and can cause the third-party agent(s) to determine third-party interpretation(s) of the spoken utterance provided by the user. In some implementations, the automated assistant can select a given interpretation, from the first-party interpretation(s) and the third-party interpretation(s), of the spoken utterance, and can cause a given third-party agent to satisfy the spoken utterance based on the given interpretation.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for accurately and flexibly generating modified digital images utilizing a novel swapping autoencoder that incorporates scene layout. In particular, the disclosed systems can receive a scene layout map that indicates or defines locations for displaying specific digital content within a digital image. In addition, the disclosed systems can utilize the scene layout map to guide combining portions of digital image latent code to generate a modified digital image with a particular textural appearance and a particular geometric structure defined by the scene layout map. Additionally, the disclosed systems can utilize a scene layout map that defines a portion of a digital image to modify by, for instance, adding new digital content to the digital image, and can generate a modified digital image depicting the new digital content.

Abstract: A system and method for automated cybersecurity defensive strategy analysis that predicts the evolution of new cybersecurity attack strategies and makes recommendations for cybersecurity improvements to networked systems based on a cost/benefit analysis. The system and method use machine learning algorithms to run simulated attack and defense strategies against a model of the networked system created using a directed graph. Recommendations are generated based on an analysis of the simulation results against a variety of cost/benefit indicators.

Abstract: Methods and devices for obtaining a blood pressure measurement of a subject measure a transit time of a blood pulse of the subject. A method includes sensing, with a pulse ejection sensor of a wrist-worn device, ejection of blood from the left ventricle. Arrival of a resulting blood pressure pulse at the wrist is sensed via a pulse arrival sensor of the wrist-worn device. A transit time of the blood pressure pulse from the left ventricle to the wrist is determined. A relative blood pressure value of the subject is determined based on the transit time. A reference absolute blood pressure value associated with the relative blood pressure value is received. An absolute blood pressure value for the relative blood pressure value is determined based on the reference absolute blood pressure value and the relative blood pressure value.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for generating digital images depicting photorealistic scenes utilizing a digital image collaging neural network. For example, the disclosed systems utilize a digital image collaging neural network having a particular architecture for disentangling generation of scene layouts and pixel colors for different regions of a digital image. In some cases, the disclosed systems break down the process of generating a collage digital into generating images representing different regions such as a background and a foreground to be collaged into a final result. For example, utilizing the digital image collaging neural network, the disclosed systems determine scene layouts and pixel colors for both foreground digital images and background digital images to ultimately collage the foreground and background together into a collage digital image depicting a real-world scene.

Abstract: Electrochemical devices, and associated materials and methods, are generally described. In some embodiments, an electrochemical device comprises an electroactive material. The electroactive material may comprise an alloy having a solid phase and a liquid phase that co-exist with each other. As a result, such a composite electrode may have, in some cases, the mechanical softness to permit both high energy densities and an improved current density as compared to, for example, a substantially pure metal electrode.
