Abstract

Various embodiments are provided for dynamically reconfiguring radio access network (RAN) functionality between edge and cloud computing environments. A RAN-enabled edge server deployed at an edge location is configured to perform a set of distributed unit (DU) functions for a radio-based network, while a server hosted at a regional data center of a cloud provider network is configured to perform a set of core network functions for the radio-based network. The system monitors availability of the core network functions at the edge location and determines that the set of core network functions provided by the server at the regional data center is unavailable. In response to determining that the core network functions are unavailable, the RAN-enabled edge server is dynamically reconfigured to perform the set of core network functions.

Abstract

Systems and methods provide for a multi-modal development environment to receive inputs using a variety of different input modalities in different user interfaces (UIs). Multiple user interfaces may be linked within the development environment to maintain state information so that inputs provided to one UI are represented in the other UIs using an appropriate equivalent representation based on the UI modality. Users of the development environment may select a given UI for interaction based on a desired task and then see changes tracked and relayed through the different UIs to verify changes within the development environment. The UIs may also be contextually linked to permit the user to work between both UIs without losing the context due to the switch.

Abstract

This disclosure describes, in part, systems for enabling physical retail stores and other facilities to implement automated-checkout techniques for the purchase of items that are priced per unit weight. For example, the described systems may enable a facility to implement technology where users are able to remove items from inventory locations, place the items on weight sensors, and then be charged for the prices of the items without performing manual checkout of the items. The price of an item is determined based at least in part on the identifier of the item and the price per unit weight of the item. The systems described herein thus enable customized retail facilities, as opposed to a retail facility that allows automated-checkout only for prepackaged-type or otherwise non-customizable merchandise.

Abstract

A system configured to reduce loudspeaker distortion by performing nonlinear signal processing is provided. A device may include preprocessing component(s) that apply nonlinear signal correction prior to sending a playback audio signal to a driver in order to compensate for a nonlinear response of the driver. While the driver response may be nonlinear, a combination of the preprocessing and the nonlinear driver response results in a combined response that is linear and/or compensates for the nonlinear driver response. For example, applying the nonlinear driver response to a processed audio signal may result in output audio generated by the driver accurately reproducing the playback audio signal input to the preprocessing components. To train the preprocessing components to apply the nonlinear signal correction, a deep neural network (DNN) is trained to model the driver response.

Pixels depicting skin may be detected in a first frame of the video content. Transformation parameters may then be determined based on intensity values of the pixels depicting skin, where the transformation parameters represent adjusted pixel intensity values determined to improve at least one of brightness or contrast of the pixels depicting skin. Based on the transformation parameters, intensity association data may be generated and stored that associates each possible input pixel intensity value in at least one channel with a corresponding adjusted pixel intensity value. The stored intensity association data as determined with respect to the first frame may then be reused to modify intensity values for a series of frames of the video content.

Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for a shuttle track system for efficiently sorting items and packages by increasing a throughput of shuttles loaded with items. To increase item shuttle throughput, a shuttle track designated for shuttles that transport items (e.g., item track) may be positioned between on either side of a tote track designed for shuttles that transport totes (e.g., tote tracks). Tote receiving areas which may support totes for receiving the items may be positioned between each item track and the tote track. Shuttles designed to transport items (e.g., item shuttles) may deliver items to the totes in the tote receiving areas via the item tracks and shuttles designed to retrieve and/or receive totes (e.g., tote shuttles) may retrieve and/or receive totes via the tote track. Multiple sortation levels may be stacked and interconnected via ramps and/or shuttle lift systems to maximize and/or optimize item shuttle throughput.

Abstract

Techniques to speed up decoding of compressed data objects may include offloading a decoding function to a decoder accelerator. The techniques may include a processor parsing the header including one or more code tables from a compressed data object, loading code data for one or more code tables into the decoder accelerator, and providing the encoded data from the compressed data object to the decoder accelerator via a decoder bus interface. The decoder accelerator decodes the encoded data into decoded data blocks. The processor then receives the decoded data blocks from the decoder accelerator via the decoder bus interface, generates pre-transformation data blocks based on the decoded data blocks by performing inverse domain transformation, and converts the pre-transformation data blocks into a decompressed data object.

Abstract

Applications using complex interactions among networked services may have flows reconstructed through analysis of trace logs of the services. Logs collected independently and absent knowledge of other logs or flows may be parsed by an adaptive parser to identify service events which may be temporally organized using timestamps and performance metrics collected during previous usage of the services. Analyzing these temporally organized events may produce a list of independent candidate events that may associated with an application flow. These candidate events may then be sorted based on key identifiers in the events according to previously established application facts with identifiers of events correlated to reconstruct the application flow. The reconstructed flow may then be provided for stored, visualized, replayed or provided as input to a topology generator for further introspection.

Abstract

Techniques for executing a service of a first online resource via a second online resource are described herein. For example, a computer system may receive, on a user interface at a user device to a second online resource, an item identifier, authentication data, and a first request for a first service of a first online resource. The computer system can determine an attribute of an item based on the item identifier indicating that the item is available via the second online resource and unavailable via the first online resource. The computer system can determine, based on the authentication data, that the first request is authenticated for a first user account with the first online resource. The computer system can cause execution of the first service to be initiated and send user information from the first user account to cause a presentation of the user information at the user interface.

Abstract

A system enriches detections of anomalous computer-related activity with output from a language model. The detection and enrichment system uses Bayesian inference to model the likelihood that a co-occurrence of a detection event and an enriched detection event indicate an actual attack. The detection and enrichment system uses a question answering model, to process text data, such as, but not limited to, transcripts or emails. A language model is trained to detect potential attacks based on labelled training data, such as, but not limited to, transcripts or emails with examples of a type of attack.

Abstract

Pauli surface codes form a class of two-dimensional codes from which a two-dimensional code may be selected to store quantum information for a particular application. The Pauli surface codes allow more flexibility in selecting a code configuration that bests meets the need of the particular application. For example, Pauli surface codes are not restricted to placing qubits on a square grid, as has been the case in previous surface codes. Additionally, a process for selecting a configuration to be used to implement a two-dimensional code for storing quantum information considers different Pauli codes and May utilize a machine learning algorithm to select a given Pauli code that is well suited for the particular application.

Abstract

A torn-write self-detection feature is implemented by a storage volume, which can be a single storage device or a plurality of storage devices. In one embodiment, page protection metadata is added to each data page. The metadata can include a data page size and a unique serial number for each group of sectors this data page is spanning. The page size and unique serial number can be stored in association with the data for each sector group. The unique serial number can follow a pattern, such as an incremental pattern. Upon a read of the data page, the page size and the unique serial number are checked for each sector group. If the serial numbers are consistent with the pattern, and the page size is correct, then the data is passed to the requesting host. Otherwise, a torn-write error condition is indicated to the host.

Abstract

An automatic code deployment pipeline with multiple stages for automated build, test and deployment of code updates to a production execution environment includes functionality for detecting end-user latency introduced by the code changes prior to full production deployment of the updates. In response to a request to deploy an updated application (or component thereof) to a full production environment, the pipeline executes the updated application in a less-than-full-production execution environment, and obtains end-user latency metrics during the execution of the updated application. The pipeline determines, based on analysis of the obtained end-user latency metrics for the updated application relative to latency metrics for the non-updated application running in the production execution environment, whether the update causes a latency regression for the application. For a significant latency regression, automated deployment is halted. For the case of no or insignificant latency regression, the pipeline continues the automated deployment.

Abstract

Techniques for identifying unencrypted network flows using virtual private cloud encryption controls are described. An encryption control system in a cloud provider network receives a request to monitor an encryption state of network traffic associated with a virtual private cloud (VPC). Based on collected network flow data indicative of an encryption state associated with each network flow, the system identifies a network flow associated with the VPC as not being encrypted. This identified network flow, which may be present in the VPC or in underlying architecture of the cloud provider network, can be presented via a user interface.

Abstract

Techniques for calibrating user devices to account for device-specific factors that can affect the user devices' abilities to detect user movement. User devices detect user movement by emitting ultrasonic signals, and characterizing changes in signal characteristics of reflections of the ultrasonic signals off the person caused by the movement of the person. Device-specific factors may negatively affect the ability of the user devices to detect user movement. To account for these factors, device-specific frequency responses for each device may be determined across bandwidths in an ultrasonic frequency range, and the device-specific calibration data may be stored on each user device. Upon being placed in user environments, the user devices emit ultrasonic sweep signals that span the different bandwidths in the ultrasonic frequency range to determine environmental factors. The user devices may use the device-specific and environmental factors to determine optimal carrier frequencies and gain values for subsequent ultrasonic signal transmissions.

Abstract

Techniques for document sorting with bitmap indexes are described. A request to sort a set of documents is received. A bitmap that identifies the set of documents to be sorted is obtained. An ordered set of sort bitmaps is obtained, each sort bitmap in the ordered set of sort bitmaps corresponding to a bit in an encoding of a data type to be sorted. A series of passes of bitwise operations is performed with the ordered set of sort bitmaps, each pass to identify a next document identifier to add to a sorted set of document identifiers by processing an initial bitmap with bitwise operations in order against at least a portion of the ordered set of sort bitmaps. The initial bitmap of the first pass in the series of passes is initialized with the obtained bitmap. The sorted set of document identifiers is stored.

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for controlling load on a server hosting block storage volumes by dynamically controlling latency for input/output (I/O) operations to the block storage volumes. The system can selectively inject synthetic latency into the I/O operations according to how the server is loaded, thus enabling control of server load. For example, when the server is overloaded, additional synthetic latency can be injected into I/O operations to counteract overloading. This synthetic latency can then be removed when the server is no longer overloaded. Modifications of synthetic latency can be targeted to individual clients, individual types of I/O operations, or both, facilitating targeted performance shaping for servers hosting block storage volumes.

Abstract

Techniques are described for a compute optimizer service of a cloud provider network that uses a multivariate time series machine learning (ML) model to identify network-intensive cloud workloads and to provide recommendations for optimizing such workloads. A network-intensive workload, for example, broadly represents any computing workload that uses relatively more network resources than typical workloads (e.g., such as load balancers, web servers, and the like). The ML model combines a set of weak learners and a meta-model on top of the weak learners to infer the final predictions of whether workloads are network-intensive workloads. The ML model identifies network-intensive workloads in part by recognizing the patterns within the time series data reflecting certain resource usage patterns rather than only deriving embedded statistical information, thereby enabling the model to more accurately identify network-intensive workloads.

An artificial intelligence (“AI”) search system includes a generative model orchestrator. A user provides an initial input query. The AI search system can determine initial search results. The AI search system receives subsequent input queries, which can include user input indicative of user intent in natural language, such as, altering, complementary, reinforcing, and unrelated intent. The AI search system creates input data that includes a prefix, format instructions, example(s), the input query, and/or contextual metadata. The AI search system provides the input data to the generative model orchestrator, which can, as instructed, output an action for a service, such as a search or image service. The AI search system executes the action, determines additional search results, and provide the additional search result(s).

Abstract

Relevant portions of broadcasts of live events, such as replays, may be marked or framed by patterns of one or more images. A model is trained with pairs of images and text descriptors to generate image embeddings and text embeddings representative of the images and text descriptors, respectively. Where a pattern of images includes one or more images, a user may specify one or more text descriptors representative of images of the pattern and identify portions of a media file with respect to such images. The model generates text embeddings of the text descriptors, as well as image embeddings of image frames of a video file broadcasted to viewers, including a relevant portion marked or framed by the pattern. Where an image embedding is sufficiently similar to one of the text embeddings, the pattern is detected, and the relevant portion is identified based on the pattern.

Abstract

Technology is described for an object cache layer for a rules engine. The object cache layer may store derived objects. The object cache layer may take advantage of machine learning for incoming objects that have variable attributes. A trainable hash function may use a machine learning model to predict the incoming event schema and signature of derived objects from the incoming objects or queries. The trainable hash function may determine an incoming event schema and signature of a derived object using the machine learning model and a set of attributes of an incoming object. A cache manager of the object cache layer may use a hash value determined by the trainable hash function using the signature of the incoming object to determine whether to access the derived object in the cache. The trainable hash function may be trained at runtime using training signatures from the rules engine on cache misses.

Abstract

Techniques are described for providing managed virtual computer networks that have a configured logical network topology with virtual networking devices, such as by a network-accessible configurable network service, with corresponding networking functionality provided for communications between multiple computing nodes of the virtual computer network by emulating functionality that would be provided by the virtual networking devices if they were physically present. In some situations, the networking functionality provided for a managed computer network of a client includes receiving routing communications directed to the virtual networking devices and using included routing information to update the configuration of the managed computer network, such as to allow at least some computing nodes of a managed computer network to dynamically signal particular types of uses of one or more indicated target network addresses and/or to dynamically signal use of particular external public network addresses based on such routing information.

Abstract

Technologies directed to are monitoring human vital signs with mmWave radars are described. One method sends a first signal having a first chirp that is a triangular-type chirp that increases in frequency for a first period and decreases in frequency for a second period and a second chirp that is a ramp-type chirp that increases in frequency for a third period. The method receives a second signal corresponding to the first signal. The method generates, using the first chirp and a first portion of the second signal, a third signal indicative of a human vital sign, such as a heart rate or a respiratory rate. The method measures a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value of a second portion of the second signal at approximately 60 GHz. The method determines, using the RSSI value, a value indicative of oxygen-concentration in an ambient environment of the monitoring device.

Abstract

In a computer or other electronic device that uses a boot process, it is desirable to allow updating of boot images without impacting objects sealed using trusted keys. In one embodiment, multiple platform configuration registers (PCRs) within a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) are used in association with the booting process. A first PCR can be associated with a first boot image and a second PCR can be associated with a second boot image. A change in the first boot image results in a change of the first PCR value, but the second PCR value can remain unchanged. Accordingly, any objects that are sealed using a trusted key as the second PCR value need not be resealed. Addition PCRs can be added for additional boot images.

Abstract

Systems and methods provide for modular, iterative framework to resolve inputs provided to an interaction environment. The input may be decomposed into different component parts and then relevant actions for each of the component parts may be predicted. An action may be selected and relevant parameters may be populated based on the input. If parameters remain unresolved, additional queries may be presented in order to resolve the remaining parameters. Multiple actions may be executed and then prepared to generate a combined response responsive to the input. Actions for a given interaction environment may be domain-specific and also may be developer-defined for a given goal or task to restrict one or more underlying language systems.

Abstract

A storage driver for a storage space (e.g., hard disk volume) may use intermediate mappings for write, create, and delete requests to prevent data loss from ransomware. The storage driver receives a request to overwrite a data item (e.g., file or object) at a first location of a storage space and in response, writes data to a second location of the storage space. The storage driver also generates a write mapping that associates the first location with the second location. At a later point in time, the storage driver may determine whether to commit the request to overwrite the data item. If the storage driver determines not to commit the request to overwrite the data item (due to the data being the result of a ransomware attack), then the storage driver deletes the write mapping, preventing the first location from being overwritten (preventing data loss from a ransomware attack).

Abstract

A diffusion model receives as inputs an image of a background, first text describing the background, and second text describing an object to be added to the background. Using these inputs, the diffusion model generates an output image depicting the object within the background. To improve fidelity to the background image, the diffusion model uses the inputs associated with the background and the input associated with the object as separate conditions and determines a weight parameter that controls the probability of characteristics of each input occurring in the output image. Noise is added to the background image to create an initial image for the diffusion model. The first text and the second text are both used, in conjunction with the weight parameter, to determine a prompt to cause the diffusion model to generate an image of the object included in the background, while retaining the characteristics of the background image.

Abstract

An autonomous mobile device (AMD) may use an indirect time of flight (iTOF) sensor to acquire depth information about a physical space. This sensor may experience veiling glare in which multipath interference results in incorrect output of false objects that are not actually present in the physical space. A frame of depth data from the iTOF sensor is processed to determine if veiling glare may be present. A frame with possible veiling glare is then filtered at a pixel level to provide filtered depth data by removing or replacing depth data from pixels that may exhibit veiling glare. These pixels are determined to exhibit veiling glare by comparing their amplitude data with amplitude thresholds associated with an observed distance of that pixel and a specified error tolerance. The filtered data may then be used to operate the AMD.

Abstract

This disclosure describes, in part, systems for enabling facilities to implement techniques to identify items using weight sensors. For instance, a first weight sensor may determine a first weight associated with a first item, where the first item is priced per unit weight. The first weight sensor may be located within an inventory location associated with the item or a station that weighs and prices items. A second weight sensor may then determine a second weight of a second item. The second weight sensor may be located within the station or a tote, such as a shopping cart. A system may then use the second weight and the first weight to determine that the second item includes the first item. In some instances, the system may also use locations of the weight sensors, a time of flight of the item, and/or other information to make the determination.

Abstract

A system that performs event detection using a multi-branched network for sensor fusion. For example, a device may detect when a tap event occurs on a surface of the device using a combination of microphone audio data and sensor data, such as motion data generated by a motion sensor. Prior to combining these inputs for further inference, the device may use separate neural networks to independently extract features from the audio data and the sensor data. This improves an accuracy of tap detection and enables detection of additional tap gestures and/or other types of event/activity detection, such as typing detection. The multi-branched network may generate fused data by processing audio features, motion data, raw audio data, raw accelerometer data, and/or additional sensor data. Depending on the inputs, a number of branches, a branch depth, and/or a number of event detectors may vary without departing from the disclosure.

Abstract

Techniques for routing data, in a system including multiple assistants, are described. A user device may store configuration data for a virtual assistant, where the configuration data includes a virtual assistant identifier, one or more resource identifiers, and optionally a virtual assistant name. A resource identifier may correspond to a virtual assistant component implemented by the user device, or a virtual assistant component(s) in communication with the user device. Based on the user device storing the configuration data, the user device may send virtual assistant data to at least one system component, where the virtual assistant data corresponds to each virtual assistant implemented at least partially by the first user device, and the virtual assistant data includes the configuration data. When the user device receives event data associated with a virtual assistant identifier, the user device may use stored configuration data to determine a resource identifier(s) associated with the virtual assistant identifier, associated with the event data. The user device may thereafter send the event data to the component and/or device(s) corresponding to the determined resource identifier(s).

Abstract

A system configured to perform noise suppression using subspace processing. For example, a device may estimate a multichannel noise subspace and use the estimated noise subspace to perform noise suppression while preserving coherence between microphones, enabling further processing (e.g., beamforming, SSL processing). The device may estimate the noise subspace during non-speech activity to determine a set of principal noise components in each frequency band. In some examples, the device may perform time-varying principal component analysis (PCA) processing to adaptively estimate the noise subspace. For example, the device may determine a noise matrix, estimate the noise subspace using dominant eigenvectors of the noise matrix, project the input noisy observations onto the null space of noise to determine a noise estimate and perform noise suppression. To reduce signal distortion, the device may use a signal quality metric as a proxy for speech detection and vary an amount of noise suppression accordingly.

Abstract

Techniques and systems for adaptive optimization of clusters for bitrate prediction are disclosed. In some embodiments, such techniques may include extracting, in real-time, features from content segments of a video stream; identifying superclusters representing optimal bitrates for the content segments of the live video stream based on a mapping of the features to superclusters generated by one or more trained machine learning models, the identified superclusters configured to maintain a quality level associated with the content segments; assigning a subcluster between the identified superclusters; and applying bitrates associated with the identified superclusters and the subcluster to the video stream.
