Disclosed also herein are methods of forming the composite.

Abstract: For training a perception algorithm to detect an emergency vehicle, respective audio datasets are received from two microphones and respective spectrograms are generated. At least one interaural difference map is generated based on the spectrograms, audio source localization data is generated, which specifies a number of audio sources in respective grid cells of a spatial grid, by applying a CRNN to first input data containing the spectrograms and the least one interaural difference map. An image is received from a camera and output data comprising a bounding box for the emergency vehicle is predicted by applying at least one further ANN to second input data containing the image and the spectrograms. Network parameters are adapted depending on the output data and the audio source localization data.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to identification and prioritization of autonomous vehicle (AV) data collection and data offload. In some aspects, the present disclosure provides a process for receiving one or more data collection triggers from an AV fleet management system, wherein the one or more triggers identify at least one condition that triggers collection of AV data by an AV; compiling the AV data in response to detecting the at least one condition identified by the one or more data collection triggers; determining a set of priorities that are associated with the one or more data collection triggers, wherein the set of priorities includes at least one instruction for prioritizing transmission of the AV data to the AV fleet management system; and transmitting, based on the set of priorities, the AV data to the AV fleet management system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein combine randomization functionalities with the machine-learning prioritization of workflows for performance testing. In aspects, a primary workflow having a sequence of user interface steps is input. Testing workflows are generated that represent each variable position of unlocked steps in the sequence of the primary workflow while maintaining the sequential position of any locked steps. These testing workflows are then ingested to a machine learning model that identifies as subset of the testing workflows to prioritize over other. Specifically, testing workflows are prioritized that at least partially match sequence patterns in historical workflow data that is associated with vulnerable computer code. The subset is output and tested by testing engine to generate a report of any vulnerable computer code.

Abstract: This disclosure describes an item drop location for placing items that have been picked from an inventory location within a material handling facility but have not yet been transitioned from the materials handling facility and a return location for returning items that have been transitioned from the materials handling facility. Likewise, described is a system and method for identifying an item placed at a drop location or an item placed at a return location, processing the placed item and providing confirmation to a user that placed the item and facilitating a return of the item or a removal of the item from an item identifier list associated with the user.

Abstract: A compile-time link type manager is defined to facilitate development of source code with disciplined link type object management at runtime. In one aspect, the link type manager ensures that all link type object management constructs have associated event handlers. Additionally, an event handler can be evaluated at compile time to ensure that it meets certain conditions for the particular link type, referred to as link-type criteria.

Abstract: A compile-time link type manager is defined to facilitate development of source code with disciplined link type object management at run-time. In one aspect, when a compile-time link type manager encounters a link type object management construct in source code, it will emit code for a runtime object management engine that processes generic link type object management instructions at runtime. It will also compile type-specific instructions from the link type object management construct for accessing the generic instructions in the runtime object management engine for affecting a link type object at runtime. A runtime object management engine may perform various checks, referred to as link-type criteria, at runtime prior to executing a link type object management instruction. When defined link-type criteria are satisfied for a link type object management instruction for an object at runtime, the instruction is carried out.
