Abstract: Provided are techniques for using relocatable debugging information entries to save compile time when there are changes to source code. While compiling source code, for an unchanged function, a copy is made of a relocatable debugging information entries table and of a relocation information table. In addition, for a changed function, a new relocatable debugging information entries table and a new relocation information table are generated. The copy of the relocatable debugging information entries table and the new relocatable debugging information entries table are merged. The copy of the relocation information table and the new relocation information table are merged. The relocatable debugging information entries in the merged relocatable debugging information entries table are resolved according to information in the merged relocation information table to generate relocated Debugging with Attributed Record Formats information, which is stored in an object file that corresponds to the source code.

Abstract: A system is provided for reducing friction during user interactions with a natural language processing system, such as voice assistant systems. The system determines a pre-trained model using dialog session data corresponding to multiple user profiles. The system determines a fine-tuned model using the pre-trained model and a fine-tuning dataset that corresponds to a particular task, such as query rewriting. The system uses the fine-tuned model to process a user input and determine an alternative representation of the input that can result in a desired response from the natural language processing system.

Abstract: An online system optimizes for longer attribution window conversions with an additive decomposition model by predicting the probability that a predefined action happens given an impression/click. The online system receives a content item from a content provider for display to a target user, and predicts a probability that a target user will convert given an interaction with the content item by the target user. The online system computes, by a first trained model, a short-term conversion probability of a conversion event happening within a first conversion window after the interaction. The online system computes, by a second trained model, a long-term conversion probability of the a conversion event happening within a second conversion window after the interaction, the second conversion window being longer than the first conversion window. The online system computes the conversion probability given the interaction based on the short-term conversion probability and the long-term conversion probability.

Abstract: In a method for recycling all solid-state batteries, spent battery cells are dissolved in anhydrous ethanol. The resulting solution is separated into solids and supernatants which are separately processed to regenerate the solid electrolyte and the solid electrode materials. The supernatant is subjected to vacuum evaporation to precipitate an electrolyte powder, which is then annealed under flowing oxygen. The solid electrode material is regenerated by washing the solids with water, drying the washed solids, relithiating the washed solids, and annealing the relithiated solids. The resulting materials are suitable for use in fabrication of new all-solid state batteries.
