Patent number: 12642623Abstract: A method for generating digital setups for an orthodontic treatment path. The method includes receiving a digital 3D model of teeth, performing interproximal reduction (IPR) on the model and, after performing the IPR, generating an initial treatment path with stages including an initial setup, a final setup, and a plurality of intermediate setups. The method also includes computing IPR accessibility for each tooth at each stage of the initial treatment path, applying IPR throughout the initial treatment path based upon the computed IPR accessibility, and dividing the initial treatment path into steps of feasible motion of the teeth resulting in a final treatment path with setups corresponding with the steps.

Patent number: 12633423Abstract: Methods and apparatus for obtaining representations of proteins and small molecule drugs for synthesis; wherein input queries into trained mixed modality protein and natural language models are augmented with relevant query-related documents. In one embodiment, the relevant query-related documents are obtained by maximum inner product search of an embedding latent vector space into which the query and the documents are projected. The top-k most relevant documents to the query are then combined with the query as input into the trained mixed modality language model. In one embodiment, the mixed modality model is an autoregressive multicapitate transformer whose decoder output heads correspond to the represented modalities. The method returns mixed modality output representations of proteins or small molecule drugs for synthesis or manufacture.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2025Date of Patent: May 19, 2026Assignee: Deep EigenMatics, Inc.Inventor: Stephen Gbejule Odaibo

Patent number: 12580080Abstract: A plasma piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) combination for early diagnosis of gastric cancer and application thereof are provided. Based on the plasma piRNA expression profile of the Chinese population, the present invention obtains a plasma piRNA combination for early diagnosis of gastric cancer, and establishes an early diagnosis model for gastric cancer based on the plasma piRNA combination. The model can predict the incidence risk of gastric cancer with relatively high accuracy, which helps to reduce the cost of detection. At the same time, the present invention uses a Lasso Logistic regression model, which greatly reduces the number of variables included in the model and facilitates the application and popularization of the model.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2024Date of Patent: March 17, 2026Assignee: THE FIRST AFFILIATED HOSPITAL OF WENZHOU MEDICAL UNIVERSITYInventors: Xian Shen, Jianjian Zheng, Xiaodong Chen, Lifan Lin, Feng Jiang, Xinmiao Li, Qiqi Tao, Weizhi Zhang
