A nervous system emulator engine includes working computational models of the vertebrate nervous system to generate lifelike animal behavior in a robot. These models include functions representing several anatomical features of the vertebrate nervous system, such as spinal cord, brainstem, basal ganglia, thalamus and cortex. The emulator engine includes a hierarchy of controllers in which controllers at higher levels accomplish goals by continuously specifying desired goals for lower-level controllers. The lowest levels of the hierarchy reflect spinal cord circuits that control muscle tension and length. Moving up the hierarchy into the brainstem and midbrain/cortex, progressively more abstract perceptual variables are controlled. The nervous system emulator engine may be used to build a robot that generates the majority of animal behavior, including human behavior. The nervous system emulator engine may also be used to build working models of nervous system functions for clinical experimentation.

An online concierge system allows users to order items from a warehouse, which may have multiple warehouse locations. The online concierge system provides a user interface to users for ordering the items, with the user interface providing an indication of whether an item is predicted to be available at the warehouse at different times. To predict availability of an item model at different times, the online concierge system selects data from historical information about availability of items at one or more warehouses based on temporal, geospatial, and socioeconomic information about observations of historical availability of items at warehouses. The online concierge system accounts for distances between observations and a time and geographic location in a feature space to select observations for predicting item availability at the time and the geographic location.

A continuous-time recurrent neural network (CTRNN) is described that exploits the nonlinear dynamics of micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) devices to model a neuron in accordance with a neuron rate model that is the basis for dynamic field theory. Each MEMS device in the CTRNN is configured to simulate a neuron population by exploiting the characteristics of bi-stability and hysteresis inherent in certain MEMS device structures. In an embodiment, the MEMS device is a microbeam or cantilevered microbeam device that is excited with an alternating current (AC) voltage at or near an electrical resonance frequency associated with the MEMS device. In another embodiment, the MEMS device is an arched microbeam device that is excited with a direct current voltage and exhibits snap-through behavior due to the physical design of the structure. A CTRNN can be implemented using a number of MEMS devices that are interconnected, the connections associated with varying connection coefficients.

A method for multivariate time series prediction is provided. Each time series from among a batch of multiple driving time series and a target time series is decomposed into a raw component, a shape component, and a trend component. For each decomposed component, select a driving time series relevant thereto from the batch and obtain hidden features of the selected driving time series, by applying the batch to an input attention-based encoder of an Ensemble of Clustered dual-stage attention-based Recurrent Neural Networks (EC-DARNNS). Automatically cluster the hidden features in a hidden space using a temporal attention-based decoder of the EC-DARNNS. Each Clustered dual-stage attention-based RNN in the Ensemble is dedicated and applied to a respective one of the decomposed components. Predict a respective value of one or more future time steps for the target series based on respective prediction outputs for each of the decomposed components by the EC-DARNNS.

The present disclosure relates to a novel integrate-and-fire (IF) neuron circuit using a single-gated feedback field-effect transistor (FBFET) to realize small size and low power consumption. According to the present disclosure, the neuron circuit according to one embodiment may generate potential by charging current input from synapses through a capacitor. In this case, when the generated potential exceeds a threshold value, the neuron circuit may generate and output a spike voltage corresponding to the generated potential using a single-gated feedback field-effect transistor connected to the capacitor. Then, the neuron circuit may reset the generated spike voltage using transistors connected to the feedback field-effect transistor.
