An accumulator may be configured to receive the produced oxygen enriched air from the sieve bed(s). A second pathway from the accumulator may apply the drawn-out moisture to the produced enriched air to produce humidified enriched air. A third pathway may transfer the drawn-out moisture from the first pathway to the second pathway. An outlet coupled with the second pathway may release the humidified enriched air from the concentrator for a user.

Abstract: A process for protecting confidentiality of audio messages that are received at an electronic computing device for providing a corresponding audio output at electronic audio output devices. In operation, the electronic computing device partitions the audio message into audio content segments, where each audio content segment is assigned to a respective confidentiality level. The electronic computing device determines a current exposure level of the electronic audio output device. The electronic computing device further determines whether the audio message is to be modified based on a current exposure level of the electronic audio output device and the respective confidentiality level assigned to each audio content segment. An audio output corresponding to the modified audio message is provided at the electronic audio output device when it is determined that the audio message is to be modified.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided to use NEMO search to train GNNs that can be used for mixed-precision quantization of DNNs. For example, the apparatus generates a plurality of GNNs. The apparatus further generates a plurality of new GNNs based on the plurality of GNNs. The apparatus also generates a sequential graph for a first DNN. The first DNN includes a sequence of quantizable operations, each of which includes quantizable parameters and is represented by a different node in the sequential graph. The apparatus inputs the sequential graph into the GNNs and new GNNs and evaluates outputs of the GNNs and new GNNs based on conflicting objectives of reducing precisions of the quantizable parameters of the first DNN. The apparatus then selects a GNN from the GNNs and new GNNs based on the evaluation. The GNN is to be used for reducing precisions of quantizable parameters of a second DNN.

The apparatus generates a sequential graph representation of the plurality of layers. The sequential graph representation includes a sequence of nodes. Each node is a graph representation of a layer. The apparatus clusters the layers into layer groups. A layer group includes one or more layers. The apparatus determines a pruning ratio for a layer group and prunes the filters of the layers in the layer group based on the pruning ratio. The apparatus may cluster the layers and determine the pruning ratio by using a GNN. The apparatus generates compressed layers from the layers in the layer group through the filter pruning process. The apparatus further updates the DNN by replacing the layers in the layer group with the compressed layers.
