China’s Zhurong rover has discovered formations on Mars that could signal the remnants of a once vast ocean. Landing in the Utopia Planitia region, the rover identified formations commonly linked to past water presence, supporting the theory that Mars was once home to a massive body of water. While the findings do not offer definitive proof, they bring scientists closer to understanding Mars' history and its potential to support life.

Microsoft announced it has acquired Semantic Machines, a conversational AI startup providing chatbots and AI chat apps founded in 2014 having $20.9 million in funding from investors. The acquisition will help Microsoft catch up with Amazon Alexa, though the latter is more focused on enabling consumer applications of conversational AI.

Microsoft will use Semantic Machine’s acquisition to establish a conversational AI center of excellence in Berkeley to help it innovate in natural language interfaces.

Microsoft has been stepping up its products in conversational AI. It launched the digital assistant Cortana in 2015, as well as social chatbots like XiaoIce. The latest acquisition can help Microsoft beef up its ‘enterprise AI’ offerings.

As the use of NLP (natural language processing) increases in IoT products and services, more startups are getting traction from investors and established players. In June last year, Josh.ai, avoice-controlled home automation software has raised $8M.

Followed by it was SparkCognition that raised $32.5M Series B for its NLP-based threat intelligence platform.

It appears Microsoft’s acquisition of Semantic Machines was motivated by the latter’s strong AI team. The team includes technology entrepreneur Daniel Roth who sold his previous startups Voice Signal Technologies and Shaser BioScience for $300M and $100M respectively. Other team members include Stanford AI Professor Percy Liang, developer of Google Assistant Core AI technology and former Apple chief speech scientist Larry Gillick.

We are currently setting up the Tempus flow and have ran into some mismatched data regarding ECO and timing reports. I generated a timing report before running ECO and saw six total setup violations. When running opt_signoff -setup, the initial setup summary that was printed in the shell only showed one violation. I can see that violation from the initial setup summary in my pre-ECO timing report and it is not the worst path. Upon further investigation, I forced the tool to try to fix setup on one of the other five violations from the timing report using the opt_signoff_select_setup_endpoints attribute and the tool said that the endpoint had positive slack and would be ignored.

Has anyone experienced something like this before?

Hi,

I have a string "[@global_vddi:%:vddi!]" which I need to process to remove "@[]" chars. The desired result is "global_vddi:%:vddi!". I tried the following in CIW

netExpr = "[@global_vddi:%:vddi!]"
rexCompile("\([a-zA-Z0-9_:!%]+\)")
t
rexExecute(netExpr)
t
rexSubstitute( "\0" )
"global_vddi:%:vddi!"

and I achieved the desired value. I added the same code to my script but it didn't work. In my script rexExecute returns 't' but rexSubstitute returns 'nil' 

Here is the snippet from my script

netExpr = dbGetTermNetExpr(term)
if(netExpr then
rexCompile("\([a-zA-Z0-9_:!%]+\)")
rexExecute(netExpr)
netExpr1 = rexSubstitute( "\0" )

...

. ..)  and trace log showing the variable values as the code executes

stopped before evaluating dbGetTermNetExpr(term)
after evaluating dbGetTermNetExpr(term)==> "[@global_vddi:%:vddi!]"
after evaluating (netExpr = dbGetTermNetExpr(term))==> "[@global_vddi:%:vddi!]"
stopped before evaluating if(netExpr then rexCompile("\([a-zA-Z0-9_:!%]+\)") rexExecute(netExpr) (netExpr1 = rexSubstitute("\0")) ... )
stopped before evaluating rexCompile("\([a-zA-Z0-9_:!%]+\)")
after evaluating rexCompile("\([a-zA-Z0-9_:!%]+\)")==> t
stopped before evaluating rexExecute(netExpr)
after evaluating rexExecute(netExpr)==> t
stopped before evaluating (netExpr1 = rexSubstitute("\0"))
stopped before evaluating rexSubstitute("\0")
after evaluating rexSubstitute("\0")==> nil
|[2]netExpr1 set to nil, was nil

Any help or suggestions as to why the code executes differently in CIW and when called from a SKILL script file will be much appreciated.

I also tried a different approach using rexReplace instead of rexSubstitute but couldn't get the regex pattern correct. The code I tried in CIW using rexReplace is as follows

a = "[@global_vddi:%:vddi!]"
"[@global_vddi:%:vddi!]"
rexCompile("\([@\[\]]*\)")
t
rexReplace(a "" 0)
"global_vddi:%:vddi!]"

Only '@[' get replaced and ']' is still present. The regex pattern contains '\]' to match the closing square bracket yet it is not replaced. Please let me know what I'm missing in these 2 scenarios.

Any help is much appreciated!!

Regards,

Confused SKILL user
