  • Publication number: 20240078348
    Abstract: A system for providing forensic tracing of memory device content erasure and tampering is disclosed. The system uses a special command that enables forensic tracing in a secure memory device. Once the forensic tracing is enabled, firmware of the memory device tracks the data stored on the memory device. The command specifies whether the tracking and tracing is for the entire memory device or for a region of the memory device. The firmware confirms that the forensic tracing is enabled, and a target protection region is defined. Once an authenticated command for an operation to access, modify, or erase data of the memory device is received from a host, the system enables the operation to proceed. The system creates a trace of the operation and the metadata of the target region that is modified within a secure memory region of the memory device that is not addressable by the host device.

    Abstract: Garments in their natural form are represented by meshes, where vertices (entities) are connected (related) to each other through mesh edges. Earlier methods largely ignored this relational nature of garment data while modeling garments and networks. Present disclosure provides a particle-based garment system and method that learn to simulate template garments on the target arbitrary body poses by representing physical state of garment vertices as particles, expressed as nodes in a graph, and dynamics (velocities of garment vertices) is computed through a learned message-passing. The system and method exploit this relational nature of garment data and network implemented to enforce strong relational inductive bias in garment dynamics thereby accurately simulating garments on the target body pose conditioned on body motion and fabric type at any resolution without modification even for loose garments, unlike existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods.

    Abstract: A “weak” undriven state is defined as a signal state, distinguished from conventional unknown and high impedance states, and methods of representing this “weak” undriven state in circuit modelling and power aware digital/mixed-signal simulations for comprehensive and complete RTL-level design verification. The conventional unknown state refers to a circuit element that is powered but has an unknown value, a circuit element that is not powered, or a circuit element having an undriven, floating signal. The unknown state is modified, and the “weak” undriven state refers to a circuit element that is not powered and has an unknown value. The “weak” undriven state can have an electrically high impedance to known supply or ground when no other circuit element is active. The “weak” undriven state distinction is particularly useful to model and verify circuit designs known to be resilient to “weak” undriven states, using event driven logic circuit simulators.

In response to determining that the spoken utterance expresses the given emotion class, the processor(s) may cause emoji(s) that are stored in association with the given emotion class to be visually rendered for presentation to the user via the display.

  • Publication number: 20240078376
    Abstract: Implementations are disclosed for automatically generating computer code that implements a machine learning-based processing pipeline based on multiple different modalities of input. In various implementations, one or more annotations created on a demonstration digital image to annotate one or more visual features depicted in the demonstration digital image may be processed to generate annotation embedding(s). Natural language input describing one or more operations to be performed based on the one or more annotations also may be processed to generate one or more logic embeddings. The annotation embedding(s) and the logic embedding(s) may be processed using a language model to generate, and store in non-transitory computer-readable memory, target computer code. The target computer code may implement a machine learning-based processing pipeline that performs the one or more operations based on the one or more annotations.
