Abstract: In one embodiment, a process is performed during controlling Autonomous Driving Vehicle (ADV). A confidence level associated with a sensed obstacle is determined. If the confidence level is below a confidence threshold, and a distance between the ADV and a potential point of contact with the sensed obstacle is below a distance threshold, then performance of a driving decision is delayed. Otherwise, the driving decision is performed to reduce risk of contact with the sensed obstacle.

Abstract: The disclosure discloses a method for bidirectional authorization of a blockchain-based resource public key infrastructure, aiming at solving security threat problems that a legal BGP route is illegal and a legal IP address is blocked caused by malicious operations.

Abstract: Disclosed approaches for multiplying a sparse matrix by dense a vector or matrix include first memory banks for storage of column indices, second memory banks for storage of row indices, and third memory banks for storage of non-zero values of a sparse matrix. A pairing circuit distributes an input stream of vector elements across first first-in-first-out (FIFO) buffers according to the buffered column indices. Multiplication circuitry multiplies vector elements output from the first FIFO buffers by corresponding ones of the non-zero values from the third memory banks, and stores products in second FIFO buffers. Row-aligner circuitry organize the products output from the second FIFO buffers into third FIFO buffers according to row indices in the second memory banks. Accumulation circuitry accumulates respective totals from products output from the third FIFO buffers.

Abstract: A memory arrangement can store a matrix of matrix data elements specified as index-value pairs that indicate row and column indices and associated values. First split-and-merge circuitry is coupled between the memory arrangement and a first set of FIFO buffers for reading the matrix data elements from the memory arrangement and putting the matrix data elements in the first set of FIFO buffers based on column indices. A pairing circuit is configured to read vector data elements, pair the vector data elements with the matrix data elements, and put the paired matrix and vector data elements in a second set of FIFO buffers based on column indices. Second split-and-merge circuitry is configured to read paired matrix and vector data elements from the second set of FIFO buffers and put the paired matrix and vector data elements in a third set of FIFO buffers based on row indices.
