Disclosures herein teach applying a set of sections spanning a down-sampled version of an image of a road-scene to a low-fidelity classifier to determine a set of candidate sections for depicting one or more objects in a set of classes. The set of candidate sections of the down-sampled version may be mapped to a set of potential sectors in a high-fidelity version of the image. A high-fidelity classifier may be used to vet the set of potential sectors, determining the presence of one or more objects from the set of classes. The low-fidelity classifier may include a first Convolution Neural Network (CNN) trained on a first training set of down-sampled versions of cropped images of objects in the set of classes. Similarly, the high-fidelity classifier may include a second CNN trained on a second training set of high-fidelity versions of cropped images of objects in the set of classes.

A clip-less packaged semiconductor device includes at least one semiconductor die having bottom and top surfaces each having at least one electrode. A leadframe comprising a sheet of conductive material having top and bottom surfaces, the top surface being substantially planar, the bottom surface having a recessed region having a thickness less than the thickness of the sheet of conductive material formed in the sheet and defining a plurality of planar lead contacts, is electrically coupled to the top surface of the die at its bottom surface in the recessed region. An encapsulating layer partially encloses the leadframe and die, wherein the encapsulating layer occupies portions of the recessed region not occupied by the die, wherein the bottom surface of the die and the plurality of leadframe contacts are exposed through the encapsulating layer at least at the bottom surface of the packaged semiconductor device.

A motorized drive roller conveyor includes an upstream zone and a downstream zone, with each zone having a drive roller, an idler roller that is driven by the drive roller, and a sensor. The upstream zone and the downstream zone are controlled by a card, which measures a gap between a first item on the conveyor and a second item on the conveyor by beginning a counter when a trailing edge of the first item passes the sensor of the upstream zone and stopping the counter when a leading edge of the second item passes the sensor of the upstream zone to generate a counter value. If the first item is stopped in the downstream zone, the card of the upstream zone causes the drive roller of the upstream zone to advance the second item into the downstream zone for a distance derived from the counter value before stopping the transportation of the second item.

An encryption management system provides a solution for embedded system device authentication, secure server-to-device communications, and encryption key management. It reduces implementation times and costs associated with using cryptography for authentication and data privacy with embedded systems applications by freeing application developers from having to develop, manage, or update security-based features in their server-based applications. The template-based approach of the system provides highly customable and accessible security functionalities. To utilize services provided by the encryption management system in some embodiments, calling applications provide input parameters and function calls in the form of a template at runtime, and the output in the form of encrypted and secured messages are either sent to the client devices automatically or returned to the calling applications. As such, security functionalities and objects, though segregated in the encryption management system to provide enhanced protection, can still be easily accessed and can be updated without recompiling the calling applications.

The present invention provides a system and a method for software conversions which maps and translates data from model reports to files formatted as either Comma Separated Value (CSV) files or Flat Fixed Position files in order to migrate the data from one software systems' service to a similar service of a different software system. Using a report generated from the current system and a translation tool the data is mapped and translated to the receiving systems' conversion format. By developing standard reports and pre-defined translation templates data from one system's application can be converted easily, repeatedly and efficiently.

An investment structure for multiple classes of investors that combines the advantages of both the master feeder structure and the reverse master feeder structure with segregated accounts. In particular, an investment structure is formed in which investors invest in a common fund. The common fund, in turn, opens a common prime brokerage account, having at least three sub-accounts, for example: an unlevered account; one or more levered accounts and a general trading account. The prime broker provides class loans to the levered account and margin loans to the general trading account. To the extent class loans are provided to the levered account, levered investors will participate in the returns on the general account as if the levered investors invested capital plus the amount of any class loans to that levered account. The unlevered investors will participate in the returns on the general trading account on the basis of their capital contributions alone. The prime broker will have no recourse against any assets of any account other than the levered account as a result of a default or margin call of the levered account. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the investment structure is structured as a fund of funds, in which multiple classes of investors invest, which, in turn, invests in multiple investment funds, or a fund that employs alternative investment strategies that overlay the basic trading strategies. In this embodiment, a credit facility is established with the equivalent of three sub-accounts as discussed above.

The present invention relates to the application of at least partially bainitic or interstitial martensitic heat treatments on steels, often tool steels or steels that can be used for tools. The first tranche of the heat treatment implying austenitization is applied so that the steel presents a low enough hardness to allow for advantageous shape modification, often trough machining. Thus a steel product is obtained which can be shaped with ease and whose hardness can be raised to a higher working hardness with a simple heat treatment at low temperature (below austenitization temperature).
