Abstract: A protein language natural language processing (NLP) system is trained to predict specific biophysiochemical properties. Amino acids of proteins are tokenized and masked. A first neural network is trained on a library of amino acid sequences in an unsupervised or self-supervised manner. The information obtained from the first phase of training is applied in a subsequent training operation via transfer learning, to a second neural network. In aspects, an annotated compact dataset is used to fine-tune the second neural network in a second phase of training, and in a supervised manner, to predict biophysiochemical properties of proteins, including TCR-epitope binding.

Abstract: A communication system, includes a satellite receiver in operable communication with a central server, a cellular node configured to operate within a proximity of the satellite receiver, and at least one mobile communication device configured to communicate (i) with the cellular node, (ii) within the proximity of the satellite receiver, and (iii) using a transmission signal capable of causing interference to the satellite receiver. The satellite receiver is configured to detect a repeating portion of the transmission signal and determine a potential for interference from the at least one mobile communication device based on the detected repeating portion.

Abstract: A communication system includes an earth station configured to receive a downlink transmission from a satellite and transmit an uplink transmission to the satellite. The communication system further includes a server in operable communication with the earth station, a beacon detector in operable communication with the server, an access point configured to operate within a proximity of the earth station, and a beacon transmitter disposed within close proximity to the access point. The beacon transmitter is configured to transmit a beacon signal to one or more of the server and the beacon detector. The beacon signal uniquely identifies the access point. The server is configured to implement a measurement-based protection scheme with respect to at least one of the downlink transmission and the uplink transmission.

Abstract: A protein language natural language processing (NLP) system is trained to predict binding affinity. Amino acids of proteins are tokenized and masked. A first neural network is trained on TCR sequences and epitope sequences in an unsupervised or self-supervised manner. The information obtained from the first phase of training is applied in a subsequent training operation via transfer learning, to a second neural network. An annotated compact dataset is used to fine-tune the second neural network in a second phase of training, and in a supervised manner, to predict biophysiochemical properties of proteins, including TCR-epitope binding.

Abstract: An active marker device, and method of design thereof, for use in a motion tracking system are provided. In one arrangement, the device comprises a mounting body comprising a mounting surface. A plurality of light emitting units are mounted on respective mounting portions of the mounting surface. A control system controls the plurality of light emitting units such that light is emitted simultaneously from a selected subset of light emitting units. A plurality of optical elements are mounted on the mounting surface. Each optical element covers a different one of the light emitting units and is configured so that an inner surface of the optical element is separated from an outer surface of the light emitting unit. Each optical element redirects a portion of light emitted by the light emitting unit covered by the optical element to be more parallel to the mounting portion of the light emitting unit.

Abstract: A drilling interpretation and volumes estimator (DRIVER) system may be provided. The DRIVER system may help facilitate a cost-effective discovery of patterns in mineral exploration drilling data that a mining company may not have the human or computer resources to look for. The DRIVER system may be able to reason with those patterns against previously-documented knowledge and may produce conclusions of value to a user, such as a mining professional.

Abstract: A device may be provided for expressing a probabilistic reasoning of an attribute in a conceptual model. A model attribute may be determined that may be relevant for a model. The model may be determined by expressing at least two of a frequency of the model attribute in the model, a frequency of the model attribute in a default model, a probabilistic reasoning of a presence of the model attribute, a probabilistic reasoning of an absence of the model attribute. An instance may be determined and may include at least an instance attribute that has a positive probabilistic reasoning or a negative probabilistic reasoning. A predictive score may be determined for the instance using a contribution made by the instance attribute. An explanation associated with the predictive score may be determined.
