Abstract: A method is provided for authenticating one device to another device. In the method, a first device proves to a second device that a first credential comprising multiple first attributes is valid. The second device proves to the first device that a second credential comprising multiple second attributes is valid. The first device reveals a first attribute of the multiple first attributes to the second device. The second device verifies the first attribute and decides whether to continue revealing attributes. If continuing, the second device reveals to the first device a first attribute of the multiple second attributes. The first device verifies the first attribute of the multiple second attributes. The first device decides whether to continue revealing attributes. Attributes can be revealed until one of the first or second devices end the method or until no attributes of the multiple first and second attributes remain to be revealed.

Abstract: A new and distinct lettuce variety NUN 06176 LTL is disclosed as well as seeds and plants and heads or leaves thereof. NUN 06176 LTL is a romaine short day lettuce variety, comprising resistance to Downy Mildew (Bremia lactucae) Isolates Bl:16-25EU and Bl:28-30EU.

Abstract: A toggle latch device translates a first push and release of a button to a locking pin translation from retracted to extended from within a housing. A second push and release of the button reverses the locking pin translation from extended to retracted back within the housing. The latch button remains desirably flush with the housing after each push and release. The translation of the latch button and that of the locking pin is angularly displaced by 90 degrees allowing the toggle latch device to employ a unique lever system which includes a buckling spring combined with a reversing hat which forces the locking pin in each of extension and retraction.

Abstract: A method is provided for managing a machine learning system. In the method, a database is provided for storing a plurality of data elements. A plurality of machine learning models is trained using assigned subsets of the plurality of data elements. The outputs of the plurality of machine learning models is provided to an aggregator. During inference operation of the machine learning system, the aggregator determines a final output based on outputs from the plurality of models. If it is determined that an assigned subset must be changed because, for example, a record must be deleted, then the data element is removed from the selected assigned subset. The affected machine learning model associated with the changed assigned subset is removed, and retrained using the changed assigned subset.
