REAL-TIME DNN EXECUTION FRAMEWORK ON MOBILE DEVICES WITH BLOCK-BASED COLUMN-ROW PRUNING
BPDNN is a general end-to-end framework to achieve real-time DNN execution on mobile devices. BPDNN supports both CNNs and RNNs. It is based on a novel, fine-grained structured BCR pruning to obtain high execution efficiency without compromising accuracy. BPDNN has two main stages: a compiler-based stage to generate optimized execution codes by leveraging BCR pruning information, and an optimization framework to determine the block size and other hyperparameters based on a decoupling strategy.
COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR COMPRESSING RECURRENT NEURAL NETWORK (RNN) MODELS AND ACCELERATING RNN EXECUTION IN MOBILE DEVICES TO ACHIEVE REAL-TIME INFERENCE
A recurrent neural network (RNN) acceleration framework leverages both a block-based pruning approach and compiler optimizations to accelerate RNN inference on mobile devices.
A method is provided for monitoring relative positions of two objects sharing a common joint during motion between the two objects. An electromagnet is positioned on a first object and a magnetic sensor is positioned on a second object. The electromagnet's power or polarity is cycled during a monitoring session in accordance with a periodic schedule of alternating power-on/power-off periods or alternating-polarity periods, respectively. The magnetic sensor's output during one or more of the power-off periods or the alternating-polarity periods is used to remove environmental magnetic interference to dynamically determine the distance between the electromagnet and the magnetic sensor where the determined distance and the north pole orientation of the electromagnet are indicative of relative positions of the first object and the second object.

Herein we describe embodiments of shotgun shells, methods for loading such shotgun shells, and methods for using them. In some embodiments, the shotgun shells utilize a multi-component wad system with a biodegradable powder wad that stays intact through the firing process, and a separate and chemically distinct biodegradable shot wad that breaks apart within one meter after being shot out of the barrel of a shotgun. A clean release of the shot can be obtained, providing both high performance and biodegradability. The biodegradable shot wad can be a biodegradable polyester.
A combination of a visual warning cue and a conspicuous auditory warning cue acts synergistically to reduce bird strike frequency against a man-made structure. Methods and systems are described for providing said combination of warning cues when a bird is within a warning zone. The auditory warning cue entails at least two separate sonic pulses within one second when the bird is within the warning zone, and is defined by an intensity-weighted frequency average of between 6 kHz and 18 kHz, and an intensity at a location within the warning zone of at least 70 decibels.
