Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for automatically predicting a risk score of a user login attempt by receiving a user login attempt and generating a login feature vector associated with the user login attempt. The systems and methods further train a machine learning technique to establish a relationship between the login feature vector and the risk score. The trained machine learning technique is applied to new user login attempts to predict a risk score associated with the login attempt and issue an authentication challenge to the user if the risk score exceeds a predetermined threshold value.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide systems and methods for confirming the identity of a passenger and changing destination of a vehicle. This may include receiving dispatching instructions to pick up a first passenger at a pickup location and to drop off the first passenger at a first destination as well as authentication information for authenticating a first client computing device of the first passenger. Once the client device is authenticated and a second passenger enters the vehicle, the vehicle is maneuvered towards the first destination. While doing so, a location of the vehicle is compared to location information received from the client computing devices. A notification is sent to a dispatching server based on the comparison and a second destination location is received in response. The vehicle is then maneuvered towards the second destination instead of the first destination.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for tensor data distribution using a direct-memory access agent includes generating, by a first controller, source addresses indicating locations in a source memory where portions of a source tensor are stored. A second controller may generate destination addresses indicating locations in a destination memory where portions of a destination tensor are to be stored. The direct-memory access agent receives a source address generated by the first controller and a destination address generated by the second controller and determines a burst size. The direct-memory access agent may issue a read request comprising the source address and the burst size to read tensor data from the source memory and may store the tensor data into an alignment buffer. The direct-memory access agent then issues a write request comprising the destination address and the burst size to write data from the alignment buffer into the destination memory.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide systems and methods for recognizing an assigned passenger. For instance, dispatching instructions to pick up a passenger at a pickup location are received. The instructions include authentication information for authenticating a client computing device associated with the passenger. A vehicle is maneuvered in an autonomous driving mode towards the pickup location. The client device is then authenticated. After authentication, a set of pedestrians within a predetermined distance of the vehicle are identified from sensor information generated by a sensor of the vehicle and location information is received over a period of time from the client device. The received location information is used to estimate a velocity of the passenger. This estimated velocity is used to identify a subset of set of pedestrians that is likely to be the passenger. The vehicle is stopped to allow the passenger to enter the vehicle based on the subset.
