Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device supported by the chassis and configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover, wherein activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle, a body for storing refuse therein supported by the chassis, a first hydraulic pump configured to convert electrical power into hydraulic power, a second first hydraulic pump configured to convert electrical power into hydraulic power, and a motor coupled to at least one of the body or the chassis and configured to drive the first hydraulic pump and drive the second hydraulic pump.

Abstract: Implementations generally relate to an image-based login and authentication system. In some implementations, a method includes displaying a plurality of random images to a user and receiving from the user a selection of at least one target image from the plurality of random images. The method further includes generating a hash number for the at least one target image, where the hash number identifies the at least one target image, and concealing the hash number in the at least one target image, where the concealing of the hash number provides security in an authentication of the at least one target image. The method further includes generating an encrypted identification token, where the encrypted identification token includes the hash number. The method further includes associating the encrypted identification token with the user, and storing the encrypted identification token in a database for authentication of at least one target image and the user.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a washable mat system comprises a top cover removably attached to a bottom pad. The top cover comprises layers of material, including a top layer with a tufted loop pile, a water-resistant internal layer, and a bottom knit surface. The top cover is sufficiently malleable to be folded, rolled, compressed, and withstand multiple wash and dry cycles while maintaining material stability. The bottom pad also comprises layers of material, including a top layer to removably attach to the bottom knit surface of the top cover, an internal cushioning layer, and a non-slip bottom surface.

Abstract: Search-result explanation systems, methods, and computer-program products receive a user search query, expand the search query into a plurality of sub-queries, perform a database search using the expanded user search query, and determine which sub-queries of the plurality of sub-queries matched with a particular search result. Results from the database search are re-indexed in an index generated on-the-fly and in-memory, within which the results are searched using the sub-queries to determine matching fields and match types. A score is determined based on the type of match(es) with a particular search result based on one or more predefined weights and normalized using a denominator comprising a fictitious, on-the-fly record configured to receive a perfect score according to the received user search query. A user interface showing ranked results and explanations for the ranking, including a score for the result based on the expanded user search query.

Abstract: Image-faceted search systems and/or methods are described. Image-faceting embodiments receive genealogy records certain of which are imaged genealogy records associated with an image. Metadata of the imaged genealogy records are determined or extracted and used to assign the image genealogy records to one or more categories and optionally subcategories. Machine learning may be used to extract the metadata and/or to categorize the records, along with in embodiments a translation algorithm. A user faceted search query is received, with pertinent search results filtered according to a selected facet, such as an image facet, and according to filtering criteria. The filtered search results, including images matching the faceted search query, are presented to a user.

Abstract: Data-sharding systems and/or methods for cost- and time-efficient record search are described. Data-sharding embodiments utilize a name-sharding dimension, optionally in combination with one or more additional dimensions such as record type and year, to reduce latency and reduce search-associated costs. The data-sharding systems and methods embodiments utilize an optimization algorithm to determine a distribution of records related to names. The optimization algorithm may use a three-character prefix for surnames in records to distribute shards across documents, with specific shards relating to no-name and multi-name records allocated.

Abstract: Processing apparatus in the form of a parallel processing configuration having a plurality of processors and at least one shared memory that is shared between the processors. Each processor is operated at a clock speed that is lower than the clock speed of the memory.

Abstract: Various powered personal mobility vehicles are disclosed. In some embodiments, the vehicle can include a deck having a forward portion, a rearward portion, and a neck portion. A front swivel wheel assembly and a rear swivel wheel assembly can be connected with the deck. In some embodiments, the front swivel wheel assembly comprises a motor.

Abstract: A kart having a pedal speed controller and other components and arrangements thereof are disclosed. The kart can be provided with a controller for controlling speed; the pedal speed controller comprising a pedestal and a pedal, one end of the pedal is articulated with the pedestal and keeps a certain angle with the pedestal. The pedal speed controller also comprises a sensor connected with the controller, and the sensor can obtain displacement signal along the tread direction of the pedal. The pedal speed controller has the advantages of realizing pedal control of acceleration or deceleration for drivers, avoiding interference with manual adjustment of kart direction, preventing from mutual influence between speed regulation and steering, improving the speed control performance of the kart, and improving the driving experience.
