Abstract: Provided is an analog-based machine learning apparatus and method that enables low-power sensing and smarter determinations on a vehicle. As an example, the method may include storing a machine learning model and configuration data for an analog processor in a storage device of a digital processor in a vehicle, receiving, via the analog processor, sensor data from one or more hardware sensors that are communicably coupled to the analog processor, extracting features from the sensor data, determining an event that occurred based on the configuration data and execution of a machine learning model on the extracted features of the sensor data, and storing an identifier of the event in the storage device.

Abstract: Vaporization devices, systems, and methods with automated thermal profile control are disclosed. Thermal profile information for a particular vaporizable material is encoded to control the operation of the vaporizer. The thermal profile is defined by a plurality of set points specified by power/temperature setting for a specified time. The thermal profile may be configured to be applied during a single or multiple inhalations. A thermal profile recipe code containing thermal profile information associated with the vaporizer cartridge and/or vaporizable material contained therein may be used to control the thermal profile. The thermal profile information may be automatically read by or communicated to the vaporizer and used thereby to automatically control the vaporizer heating element to implement the desired thermal profile associated with the vaporization material.

Abstract: Methods and systems for updating a file using heuristics. One system includes an electronic processor configured to identify a code file stored on a storage device and determine a signature of the code file. The electronic processor is also configured to compare the signature of the code file to each of a plurality of signatures to determine a degree of similarity between the signature of the code file and each of the plurality of signatures, wherein each of the plurality of signatures is associated with a code update, and, in response to the degree of similarity between the signature of the code file and one of the plurality of signatures satisfying a predetermined threshold, apply the code update associated with the one of the plurality of signatures to the code file.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments facilitate healthcare system security and interoperability. In some embodiments, a first entity may receive, in response to a transaction at a first time, encrypted information blocks pertaining to the transaction from one or more second entities. Each encrypted information block may be received from a distinct second entity and may comprise at least one sub-block decryptable by the first entity. The first entity may decrypt the decryptable sub-blocks and augment a multi-dimensional blockchain. The multi-dimensional blockchain may be augmented with a multi-dimensional block formed by linking at least one of the encrypted information blocks received from the one or more second entities to a current block being added to a blockchain associated with the transaction and maintained by the first entity. The first entity may then enable access to the multi-dimensional blockchain for at least one of the one or more second entities.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provided for a system for provisioning network resources. The system includes a network provisioning abstraction layer having an application interface for receiving network provisioning requests from applications and determine provisioning instructions for fulfilling the requests. Each of the received provisioning instructions is queued in a priority queuing system according to a request priority. The provisioning instructions for the highest priority requests are removed from the front of the queue and sent to a resource interface that relays the requests to the appropriate network resources.

Abstract: An explosive separation joint system having an expandable tube containing a mild detonating fuse (MDF) in separable portions of the joint. The MDF extends into a detonation manifold at a first port, an end of the MDF having booster bonded thereto. An external initiating ordnance transfer line enters the manifold at an initiating ordnance (IO) port, has an IO end tip and provides a detonation impulse train where each detonating component is axially aligned within a passageway with the next detonating component. In embodiments, particular detonating components of the detonation train are fixed in place where other detonating components are movable. Each detonating component that is not in direct contact with a preceding detonating component in the detonation train is in direct linear access.
