Updated Candidate Recommendation: Web Neural Network API

 The Web Machine Learning Working Group invites implementations of an updated Candidate Recommendation Snapshot of Web Neural Network API. This document describes a dedicated low-level API for neural network inference hardware acceleration.

The Web Neural Network API defines a web-friendly hardware-agnostic abstraction layer that makes use of Machine Learning capabilities of operating systems and underlying hardware platforms without being tied to platform-specific capabilities. The abstraction layer addresses the requirements of key Machine Learning JavaScript frameworks and also allows web developers familiar with the ML domain to write custom code without the help of libraries.

Draft Note: Khmer Layout Requirements

 The Internationalization Working Group has published a first Draft Note of Khmer Layout Requirements. This document describes or points to requirements for the layout and presentation of text in languages that use the Khmer script. The target audience is developers of Web standards and technologies, such as HTML, CSS, Mobile Web, Digital Publications, and Unicode, as well as implementers of web browsers, ebook readers, and other applications that need to render Khmer text.

RDF Dataset Canonicalization is a W3C Proposed Recommendation

 RDF Dataset Canonicalization and Hash Working Group published RDF Dataset Canonicalization as a W3C Proposed Recommendation. RDF describes a graph-based data model for making claims about the world and provides the foundation for reasoning upon that graph of information. At times, it becomes necessary to compare the differences between sets of graphs, digitally sign them, or generate short identifiers for graphs via hashing algorithms. This document outlines an algorithm for normalizing RDF datasets such that these operations can be performed.
