Abstract: Text can be encoded into DNA sequences. Each word from a document or other text sample can be encoded in a DNA sequence or DNA sequences and the DNA sequences can be stored for later retrieval. The DNA sequences can be stored digitally, or actual DNA molecules containing the sequences can be synthesized and stored. In one example, the encoding technique makes use of a polynomial function to transform words based on the Latin alphabet into k-mer DNA sequences of length k. Because the whole bits required for the DNA sequences are smaller than the actual strings of words, storing documents using DNA sequences may compress the documents relative to storing the same documents using other techniques. In at least one example, the mapping between words and DNA sequences is one-to-one and the collision ratio for the encoding is low.

Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards using demodulation reference signal (DMRS)-based channel state information (CSI) reporting in a wireless communications network with multiple transmit-receive points (TRPs). A user equipment computes joint CSI based on received DMRS data, e.g., received with downlink data traffic from two TRPs, such as co-located or backhaul connected TRPs. The DMRS-based joint CSI is reported to the multiple TRPs for use in scheduling subsequent data traffic, which can increase data throughput, and can reduce the frequency of CSI-RS reporting, increasing overall efficiency. The network can activate and deactivate DMRS-based CSI reporting.

Abstract: A color table is modulated. The color table includes a plurality of nodes, and each node corresponds with a color input in the first color space and provides a print output in a second color space. The set of the plurality of nodes are arranged in a vector of a first color perception parameter. The vector can be arranged according to an order of increasing second color perception parameter in the first color space to an end node of the set of the plurality of nodes. A node in the set of the plurality of nodes that provides a peak amount of the second color perception parameter on the medium is determined. The print output for the end node is replaced with a print output corresponding with the node that provides the peak amount of the second color perception parameter on the medium.
