Abstract: An image sensor is provided. The image sensor includes: a pixel array of pixels arranged in a row and column directions. A first pixel provided in a first row of the pixel array includes a first sub-pixel connected with a first metal line, a second sub-pixel connected with a second metal line, a third sub-pixel connected with a third metal line, and a fourth sub-pixel connected with a fourth metal line. When a read-out operation is performed on the first pixel, signals applied to the first through fourth metal lines are sequentially enabled. Based on the applied signals, at least a part of charges accumulated in the first through fourth sub-pixels is diffused to a first floating diffusion node. The first sub-pixel and the third sub-pixel are adjacent in the column direction, and the first sub-pixel and the second sub-pixel are adjacent in the row direction.

Abstract: A display driving circuit is provided. The circuit drives a display panel that includes data lines, sensing lines, and sub-pixels connected to the data lines and the sensing lines. The display driving circuit includes a data driver integrated circuit that drives the data lines. The data driver integrated circuit includes a driving block and a sensing block. The driving block includes plural digital-analog converters (DACs) each performing digital-analog conversion with respect to received sub-pixel data to generate output voltages and provide the output voltages of the DACs to the data lines. The sensing block measures grayscale voltages output from the DACs in a first operation mode and measures pixel voltages of the sub-pixels received from the sensing lines in a second operation mode.

Abstract: A storage device is disclosed. The storage device may include at least one controller for a virtual machine (VM) that is on a source host. Storage in the storage device may store data for the VM. A second storage may store a storage state for the VM. A storage device controller may process at least one read request received from the controller for the VM using the first storage and at least one write request received from the controller for the VM using the first storage. A VM migration state monitor and capture module may assist in the migration of the VM from the source host to a destination host.

Abstract: An electronic device displays a first screen is provided. The electronic device includes a list of one or more second applications in a display based on a first application, the second applications being different from the first application. The electronic device displays, in response to a first input of selecting one application of the one or more second applications based on the list, a second screen based on execution of the selected application in the display. The electronic device identifies information indicating at least one application switchable from the second screen within the first application, in response to a second input executing a third application based on the second screen. The electronic device identifies whether to switch from the second screen to a third screen based on execution of the third application to initiate the execution of the third application.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a touch sensor, a processor, and a memory. The processor may determine a touch input from a user as at least one of a force-touch input or a long-touch input, based on received touch data, determine whether a result of determining the touch data matches an intention of the user, store data that does not match the intention of the user as a result of determination among the touch data in the memory, and determine a type of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based pre-learning model to be used in the electronic device, based on touch input accuracy and the data that does not match the intention of the user.

Abstract: Hearing management, using a portable device or integrated portable devices, can include generating during a hearing diagnostics phase an audiogram based on responses of a user to signals conveyed to the user. In response to detecting ambient noises during the hearing diagnostics phase, noise cancellation can be performed to cancel the ambient noises in conjunction with conveying the signals to the user. During a hearing enhancement phase, sounds can be captured with the portable device. The captured sounds can be enhanced in real-time during the hearing enhancement phase by amplifying select frequencies of the captured sounds using signal gain. The frequencies can be selected, and the signal gain determined based on the audiogram. The captured sounds, now enhanced, can be conveyed to the user as frequency-enhanced sounds.
