    Abstract: An electronic device includes a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) rectifier. The MEMS rectifier includes a mainboard and a sub-board. The mainboard has one or more radiofrequency (RF) inputs configured to receive an RF signal, and a first electrical contact. The sub-board is positioned parallel to the mainboard with a gap in-between, and has a thin film piezoelectric layer, a second electrical contact positioned opposite the first electrical contact, and a ground plane. The sub-board is configured to vibrate as the RF signal is received at the one or more RF inputs, and the thin film piezoelectric layer is configured to generate energy due to the vibration and piezoelectric properties of the thin film piezoelectric layer.

    Abstract: Implementations are described herein for using one or more transformer networks to generate inferred image data based on processing image data capturing a particular geographic area during a particular time period, including first image data captured in a first spectral band and at a first spatial (and/or temporal) resolution and second image data captured in a second spectral band and at a second spatial (and/or temporal) resolution. The inferred image data can include second spectral information at the first spatial (and/or temporal) resolution, or vice versa. Thus, the spatial and/or temporal resolution of image data of a certain spectral band can be improved, allowing for more effective usage of satellite imagery in agricultural settings.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for automated underwater camera system control for aquaculture systems. An underwater camera system includes (i) a line on which the underwater camera system is mounted, the line detachably affixed to a feeder that provides feed for aquatic livestock, (ii) a sensor manager, (iii) one or more sensors that are managed by the sensor manager, (iv) a line navigation controller, and (v) a first actuator for controlling a distance between the feeder and the underwater camera system. The one or more sensors obtain sensor data and the line navigation controller of the underwater camera system determines a distance to position the underwater camera system beneath the feeder to obtain additional sensor data. The line navigation controller transmits a first message to the first actuator to position the underwater camera system at the determined distance beneath the feeder.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for developing electrical grid mapping. One of the methods includes obtaining a computer model of an electric power grid; generating a network graph representation of the computer model, wherein nodes of the network graph represent grid assets of the computer model and edges of the network graph represent wires connecting the grid assets; generating an initial prediction of links between nodes in the network graph by adding at least one edge to the network graph to obtain an over-connected graph; applying the over-connected network graph as input to a machine learning model to obtain an annotated network graph, the machine learning model configured to identify edges as positive links and negative links, and apply annotations to the edges indicating whether each edge is a positive or negative link; and updating the model based on the annotated network graph.

    Abstract: In an aspect, there is provided a method that includes: obtaining a physics-based ocean simulation model that specifies multiple simulation parameters, obtaining data characterizing an ocean in a geographical region, determining initial values of the simulation parameters based on data characterizing the ocean in the geographical region, and determining adjusted values of the simulation parameters. Determining adjusted values can include performing a simulation using the initial values of the simulation parameters to determine an initial simulation output, evaluating a task-specific objective function that is based on a measure of disagreement between: (i) the initial simulation output, and (ii) a target value for the ocean in the geographical region, and determining adjusted values of the simulation parameters of the physics-based ocean simulation model.
