OpenFermion, is the first open source platform for translating problems in chemistry and materials science into quantum circuits that can be executed on existing platforms. A lot more detail can be found [on the post](https://research.googleblog.com/2017/10/announcing-openfermion-open-source.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_openfermion_102717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog).

To help with further research into human action recognition, we’ve released a new dataset that provides multiple action labels for each person in extended video sequences. The dataset consists of URLs for publicly available videos from YouTube, annotated with a set of 80 atomic actions (such as “walk” or “shake hands”) that are spatial-temporally localized, resulting in over 57 thousand video segments, 96 thousand labeled humans performing actions, and a total of 210 thousand action labels. Examples, charts, and a link to download the data are [on the post](https://research.googleblog.com/2017/10/announcing-ava-finely-labeled-video.html?utm_campaign=devshow_series_announcingava_102717&utm_source=medium&utm_medium=blog).

Keeping sensitive and regulated data private can be a challenge. The Data Loss Prevention API, can help you quickly find and protect over 50 types of sensitive data such as credit card numbers, names, and national ID numbers. And, there are several new ways to help protect sensitive data with the DLP API, including redaction, masking, and tokenization.
