Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for image segmentation and chemical analysis using machine learning. In some implementations, a system obtains a hyperspectral image that includes a representation of an object. The system segments the hyperspectral image to identify regions of a particular type on the object. The system generates a set of feature values derived from image data for different wavelength bands that is located in the hyperspectral image in the identified regions of the particular type. The system generates a prediction of a level of one or more chemicals in the object based on an output produced by a machine learning model in response to the set of feature values being provided as input to the machine learning model. The system provides data indicating the prediction of the level of the one or more chemicals in the object.

Abstract: In an aspect a computer-implemented method is described. The method may include: causing a point-of-sale terminal processing a transaction to display a machine-readable code, the machine-readable code encoding a web address; receiving a request from a device that scanned the machine-readable code, the request received at the web address and the request including data; determining, based on data encoded in the machine-readable code and data included in the request, that the transaction may be processed using a value-added service; and in response to determining that the transaction may be processed using the value-added service, enabling completion of the transaction using the value-added service.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions and methods for the storage and release of hydrogen gas using covalent organic frameworks (COFs). Advantageously, the compositions and methods described herein may be used for the facile and rapid release of hydrogen gas at near ambient temperatures. The described COFs allow for photoactivation, where the release of gas is initiated or the rate of release is increased with the COF is exposed to electromagnetic radiation, for example, UV light.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of operating a device is provided. The method comprises operating a sensor to capture a data input, individuating an element of the data input, tagging an individuated element with metadata, matching the metadata with an associated permission set, and applying a restricting function defined in the associated permission set to the individuated element during a process flow to produce augmented reality output data restricted as required by the associated permission set. A device is also provided, comprising a sensor, an individuating component to individuate an element of sensor data from the sensor, a tagging component to tag the individuated element, a matching component to match a tag of the individuated element with a permission of a permission set, and a restricting function component to restrict an application's interaction with the individuated element.

Abstract: A swing training device for improving the proper swing of ball sports including but not limited to baseball and softball. The swing training device has an elongated barrel having a substantially quasi-stadium cross-sectional shape connected to a handle portion. The hitting surface of the barrel is one of the two opposing curved surfaces of the circular segments of the quasi-stadium cross-sectional shape. The swing training device may be a modified regulation wood bat that is modified via diametrically opposing longitudinal tangential section cuts so that the un-cut curved hitting surface is oriented such that the grain runs against the ball at contact.
