Abstract: According to one implementation, a system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code including multiple artificial neural networks (ANNs). The hardware processor executes the software code to partition a multi-dimensional input vector into a first vector data and a second vector data, and to transform the second vector data using a first piecewise-polynomial transformation parameterized by one of the ANNs, based on the first vector data, to produce a transformed second vector data. The hardware processor further executes the software code to transform the first vector data using a second piecewise-polynomial transformation parameterized by another of the ANNs, based on the transformed second vector data, to produce a transformed first vector data, and to determine a multi-dimensional output vector based on an output from the plurality of ANNs.

Abstract: A holder for a two-wheeler accessory, in particular for a two-wheeler lock, comprises a base body by which a contact surface is defined which the two-wheeler accessory contacts when it is received in the holder and one or more pivot clips that each comprise a holding limb and a lever limb and are pivotable about a pivot axis beyond a dead center between a release position and a securing position in order to allow a receiving of the two-wheeler accessory in the holder or a removal of the two-wheeler accessory from the holder in the release position and to block the two-wheeler against a removal from the holder in the securing position by means of the holding limb when said two-wheeler accessory is received in the holder.

Abstract: In a method for producing hydrogen cyanide by passing a feed mixture comprising ammonia and methane through reaction tubes, coated on the inner surface with a catalyst comprising platinum, at a reaction temperature of 1000° C. to 1400° C., operated for a time period of at least 100 h, the concentration difference between the ammonia concentration and the methane concentration in the product gas mixture is maintained in a range of from 1.05 % by volume to 3.0% by volume for at least 80% of the time.

Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for rendering heterogeneous polydisperse granular media. In one aspect, a rendering application renders such granular media using a combination of explicit path tracing and accelerated path construction using proxy path tracing, shell tracing, and volumetric path tracing. In proxy path tracing in particular, the rendering application instantiates proxy geometry in the form of a bounding sphere and determines internal scattering in the grain using a precomputed grain scattering distribution function that relates incident and outgoing radiance functions on the bounding sphere. In shell tracing, the rendering application uses shells to aggregate many grain interactions into a single step.
