Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for discerning aspects of user speech to determine user intent and/or other acoustic features of a sound input without the use of an ASR engine. To this end, a processor may receive a sound signal comprising raw acoustic data from a client device, and divides the data into acoustic units. The processor feeds the acoustic units through a first machine learning model to obtain a first output and determines a first mapping, using the first output, of each respective acoustic unit to a plurality of candidate representations of the respective acoustic unit. The processor feeds each candidate representation of the plurality through a second machine learning model to obtain a second output, determines a second mapping, using the second output, of each candidate representation to a known condition, and determines a label for the sound signal based on the second mapping.

Abstract: The present subject matter provides technical solutions for the technical problems facing cryogenic ion traps by providing a cryogenic radio-frequency (RF) resonator that is compact, monolithic, modular, and impedance-matched to a cryogenic ion trap. The cryogenic RF resonator described herein is power-efficient, properly impedance-matched to the RF source, has a stable gain profile, and is compatible with a low temperature and ultra-high vacuum environment. In some examples, the gain profile is selected so that the cryogenic RF resonator acts as a cryogenic RF amplifier. This cryogenic RF resonator improves the performance of ion traps by reducing or minimizing the heat load and reducing or minimizing the unwanted noise that may erroneously drive trapped ions. These features of the present subject matter improve the performance of atomic clocks and mass spectrometers, and especially improve the performance of trapped ion quantum computers.

Abstract: An integrated pet leash comprising a pet restraint, handle, retractors fastened to the outer side of the collar, and flexible elongated members. The flexible elongated members are coupled between the ends of the handle and the retractors. The retractors exert a force on the flexible elongated members toward the restraint. Additionally, the handle may include a detachable fastener to lock the collar-leash to poles, fence posts, parking meters, and the like.
