The assignee for this patent, patent number 11892288, is Agility Robotics Inc. (Tangent, Oregon, United States). Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "There are many devices that use a transmission to control the application of power generated by a motor. A car, for example, uses a transmission to convert the power of the car's motor into motion that provides the car's wheels a desired torque and speed to propel the car in a variety of different situations. For another example, a robot may use a transmission in an actuator to amplify the torque of a motor while reducing its speed for connection to an end-effector. For robots, it is often important to also know the position and/or location of an end-effector of the robot so that one can appropriately direct the actuator to hold the end-effector in a position and/or at a desired location, or to apply a desired force.

    查看更多>>摘要:A patent application by the inventor KIM, Doo Hyun (Gyeonggi-do, KR), filed on July 9, 2021, was made available online on February 8, 2024, according to news reporting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx correspondents. This patent application has not been assigned to a company or institution. The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background information supplied by the inventors: " "Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a technology for providing a speech image. "With the recent technological development in the field of artificial intelligence, various types of content are being generated based on artificial intelligence (AI) technology. For example, there is a case in which, when there is a voice message to be transmitted, a speech image is generated as if a famous person (e.g., a president) speaks the voice message in order to draw people's attention. This is achieved by generating mouth shapes or the like to fit a specific message, just like a famous person speaking the specific message in an image of the famous person. In addition, technologies that allow artificial intelligence (AI) to conduct conversations with humans (e.g., video calls, or the like) are being studied. In the technologies, synthesizing the speech image takes time and requires a lot of data, and thus it is difficult to generate an image of a conversation (or an image of speech) in real time, which may be a problem."

    查看更多>>摘要:From Alexandria, Virginia, NewsRx journalists report that a patent by the inventors Deacon, Graham (Hatfield, GB), Makris, Christos (Harfield, GB), Pedro, Osemwaro Jeremiah (Hatfield, GB), filed on May 29, 2019, was published online on February 6, 2024.The patent's assignee for patent number 11891247 is Ocado Innovation Limited (Hatfield, United Kingdom). News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "In the field of picking systems a robot system is typically used to selectively grasp items in a first container and transport them to a second container. For example, FIG. 1 shows a robot system 200 comprising an end effector 201, for example a suction cup end effector. The robot system is arranged to transfer an item, such as a cuboid item 301, a first cylindrical item 302 and/or a second cylindrical item 303 from a first container 300 to a second container 400. Typically, information about the contents of the first container 300 are known to the picking system from other automated processes. However, picking systems are required to verify which item has been picked before it is placed in the second container 400 to ensure that no incorrect items are transferred into the second container 400 due to imperfect information about the first container 300. For example, if the cuboid item 301 was mistakenly placed in the first container 300 whilst the second container 400 is required to only contain cylindrical items 302 and 303 but not the cuboid item 301 then the picking system must make a verification about which item has been picked.

    Developing machine-learning-based amyloid predictors with Cross- Beta DB

    169-169页
    查看更多>>摘要:According to news reporting based on a preprint abstract, our journalists obtained the following quote sourced from biorxiv.org: "Due to shifts in environmental conditions, mutations, or interactions with other biomolecules, some proteins that would normally be soluble can undergo aggregation, resulting in the formation of clumps of amyloid fibrils. Understanding of this phenomenon is of paramount importance due not only to its association with various diseases (including Alzheimer\'s disease), but also due to increasingly abundant evidence for its functional roles. Numerous studies have demonstrated that the propensity to form amyloids is coded by the amino acid sequence and this finding has paved the way for the development of several computational predictors of amyloidogenicity. The ultimate objective of computational methods is to accurately predict the formation of disease-related and functionally relevant amyloids that occur in vivo. "These amyloid fibrils are known to form very specific cross-beta structures of protein regions longer than about 15 residues. Remarkably, despite the significance of the naturally occurring amyloids, there has been a lack of datasets specifically dedicated to them. Hence, we built Cross-Beta DB, a database composed of cross-beta amyloids formed in natural conditions.
