Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for masked training and analysis with a memory array are described. A memory device may operate in a first mode in which a maximum transition avoidance (MTA) decoder for a memory array of the memory device is disabled. During the first mode, the memory device may couple an input node of the MTA decoder with a first output node of a first decoder, such as a first pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) decoder. The memory device may operate in a second mode in which the MTA decoder for the memory array is enabled. During the second mode, the memory device may couple the input node of the MTA decoder with a second output node of a second decoder, such as a second PAM decoder.

Abstract: A surgical implant device, including: an implant body; a porous layer disposed adjacent to the implant body, wherein the porous layer includes a lattice of intersecting struts; and a plurality of needle structures protruding from the porous layer opposite the implant body, wherein at least some of the plurality of needle structures traverse the porous layer and are anchored to the implant body. The plurality of needle structures that traverse the porous layer and are anchored to the implant body are coupled to one or more intersecting struts of the lattice. Optionally, some of the plurality of needle structures are spaced apart from the implant body and are anchored only to the porous layer. Preferably, one or more of the implant body, the porous layer, and the plurality of needle structures are formed by an additive manufacturing technique.

Abstract: The invention is related to a method and system for calibrating an eye tracking device configured to track a gaze point of a user on a display The method comprises: presenting a video on the display to a user, the video having a start size and a start position; tracking the gaze of the user, using an image sensor of the eye tracking device; and sequentially completing, for at least one calibration position, the steps of: resizing the video to a calibration size, wherein the calibration size is smaller than the start size, and translating the video to a calibration position; recording calibration data, using the eye tracking device, for the user viewing the video in the calibration position; and resizing the video to a second size that is greater than the start size.
