  • Publication number: 20240112753
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for generating a target-variant-reference panel comprising a target-variant position with target-variant indicators or using the target-variant-reference panel to impute a genotype call for the corresponding target variant. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems generate an initial reference panel including a variety of phased genomic samples of different haplotypes. The disclosed systems further add a target-variant position to the initial reference panel to indicate a presence or absence of a target variant, thereby creating a target-variant-reference panel comprising a target-variant position with target-variant indicators.

  • Patent number: 11865231
    Abstract: A fragrancing system may include at least one cartridge for storing a fragrance and at least one closing mechanism. The cartridge may have a cartridge opening. The closing mechanism may include a flap, a shaft, a lever, and a pin. The flap may be displacable via the shaft to a closed position, in which the flap closes the cartridge opening, and an open position, in which the flap frees the cartridge opening. The fragrancing system may further include an actuating mechanism, which may have a disc rotatable via an actuator. A cam plate structure may project axially from the disc. The pin may be arranged on a radially outward facing outer side of the cam plate structure when the flap is in the closed position and may be engaged with a recess of the cam plate structure when the flap is in the open position.

  • Patent number: 10946718
    Abstract: An air-conditioning unit of a vehicle for air-conditioning a vehicle interior may include a unit outlet for discharging air into the vehicle interior, an outside-air duct for an intake of outside air, and an air recirculation duct for recirculation of inside air from the vehicle interior. The air-conditioning unit may also include an outside-air shut-off element arranged in the outside-air duct, which in a closed position blocks a flow of outside air through the outside-air duct, and a recirculated-air shut-off element arranged in the air recirculation duct, which in a closed position blocks a flow of inside air through the air recirculation duct. The air-conditioning unit may further include a sensor device for detecting a property of air. On at least one duct of the outside-air duct and the recirculation duct, a bypass may be arranged which bypasses an associated shut-off element and is fluidically connected to the sensor device.
