Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for presenting content items. In one aspect, a method includes identifying an opportunity to present a content item at a device and in a manner that precludes a user from accessing content of one or more applications executing on the device. Data relating to a status of each of the one or more applications are identified. A level of urgency for a user to access content of the one or more applications is determined based on the data. A response to the opportunity to present a content item is selected based on the level of urgency for the user to access content of the one or more applications. The response is selected from a first response that causes presentation of the content item and a second response that precludes presentation of the content item.

Abstract: An airbag system for a vehicle is provided. The system includes an airbag cushion that is deployed from the upper portion of a seatback to cover the head of an occupant, thereby absorbing impacts applied to the head of the occupant and preventing neck bending attributable to movement of the head of the occupant. In addition, injury to the occupant is minimized by variably adjusting the deployment timing of the airbag cushion depending on the collision direction of the vehicle.

Abstract: An artificial-reality device has a display with a plurality of pixels. In a calibration mode, the device determines gray-level values for the pixels using a uniform test image. Each pixel has a luminance level proportional to its gray-level value. The device groups the pixels into segments according to the luminance levels. For each of the segments, the device computes an overall luminance level and a luminance target according to the determined gray-level values. When the overall luminance level is below the luminance target for the segment, the device calculates calibration data, which either (i) increases the gray-level of each pixel in the segment by a specified amount or (ii) selects a gamma band for the segment corresponding to a difference between the luminance target and the overall luminance level. The device stores the calibration data. The device is configured to use the stored calibration data in subsequent display of images.

Abstract: Provided is an intermediate connection system for an ultra-high-voltage direct-current (DC) power cable. Specifically, the present invention relates to an intermediate connection system, for an ultra-high-voltage DC power cable, which is capable of simultaneously preventing or minimizing electric field distortion, a decrease of DC dielectric strength, and a decrease of impulse breakdown strength due to the accumulation of space charges in an insulating layer of a cable and an insulating material of an intermediate connection part.

Abstract: According to an implementation, a system includes a social media messaging platform configured to exchange messages, over a network, among a plurality of computing devices. The exchange of messages is based on a connection graph stored on the messaging platform. The social media messaging platform includes a registration manager configured to register an account for an entity to boost a social media presence of the entity on the social media messaging platform, and a social media presence booster having a machine-learning relevance engine configured to programmatically match the entity's content with relevant entities. The social media presence booster is configured to automatically and programmatically boost the entity's content to the relevant entities, and increase, over time, a number of connections in the connection graph between the account and other accounts on the social media messaging platform in response to the boosted content.

Abstract: According to an implementation, a method for digital information retrieval in a social media platform includes transmitting, over a network, information to render a timeline of social content for a user of a client application.
