Abstract: Interpolymers useful for enhancing the efficacy of nutrients in soil and fertilizers; and methods of inhibiting the precipitation of, and/or dispersing, inorganic elements.

Abstract: An experiment design is determined for a plurality of physical experiment entities, based on a training loss that is dependent on a critic function and an action parameter individually associated with each physical experiment entity, with the aim of increasing (e.g., optimizing) information gain with respect to a plurality of test entities. The training loss encodes a predicted information gain between a predicted experiment outcome and a predicted test quantity. The predicted experiment outcome associated therewith is sampled from a joint probability distribution based on an entity context. A numerical output is computed using the critic function applied to the predicted experiment outcome and the predicted test quantity.

Abstract: A flow tube is axially moveable within an actuator body between a first axial position and a second axial position for actuating a downhole tool, such as for closing a subsurface safety valve. The flow tube includes an interior flow bore for conveying fluids from the tubing string through the actuator body. An external flow tube profile defined on the flow tube includes an upper shoulder for engagement with a wiper in the first axial position, a lower shoulder for engagement with the wiper in the second axial position, and a clearance path between the upper and lower shoulders for allowing viscous flow past the wiper when the flow tube is moved between the first and second axial positions.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method comprising: accessing a machine learning, ML, model that is operable to sample a causal graph from a graph distribution describing different possible graphs, wherein nodes represent the different variables of said set and edges represent causation, and the graph distribution comprises a matrix of probabilities of existence and causal direction of potential edges between pairs of nodes, and wherein the ML model is trained to be able to generate a respective simulated value of a selected variable from among said set based on the sampled causal graph. The method further comprises using the ML model to estimate a treatment effect from one or more intervened-on variables on another, target variable from among the variables of said set.

Abstract: An authorization level is set at enrollment. The authorization level can be determined based on user identity and a class of authentication. The class of authentication can be associated with strength of authentication related to a channel employed to enroll a user for access to products or services. Authorization level can also be determined based on initiation information regarding the user, a device of the user, or both. Access to the products or services can be selectively controlled based on the authorization level.

Abstract: Techniques for electronic calendar management. Electronic computing device(s) is/are used to generate an electronic message comprising at least one indication of a proposed electronic calendar entry. The electronic computing device(s) transmit the electronic message to a recipient. The electronic computing device(s) receive, after the electronic message has been received by the recipient, a request for one or more images corresponding to the at least on indication of a proposed electronic calendar entry. The electronic computing device(s) check in response to receiving the request, at least one electronic calendar to determine a status of the calendar at a time corresponding to each of the at least one proposed electronic calendar entry. The electronic computing device(s) generate, for each proposed electronic calendar entry for which corresponding time is available, a graphical representation of each available proposed electronic calendar entry.

Abstract: A wellbore system comprising an autofill and circulation assembly comprising a housing defining a flowbore and comprising a first port and a second port, and a first sleeve slidable within the housing from a first position to a second position and from the second position to a third position, when the first sleeve is in the first position, the assembly allows fluid communication from an exterior of the housing to the flowbore via the first port and does not allow fluid communication from the flowbore to the exterior of the housing via the first port, when the first sleeve is in the second position, the assembly allows bidirectional fluid communication between the exterior of the housing and the flowbore via the second port, and, when the first sleeve is in the third position, the assembly disallows fluid communication between the exterior of the housing and the flowbore.

Abstract: A sliding sleeve apparatus that has a flow inhibitor that slows the fluid flow between the interior passageway of the sliding sleeve and the well annulus to allow pressure equalization between the interior passageway of the sliding sleeve and the well annulus to occur prior to placing the sliding sleeve in a fully open position. The inhibited or restricted fluid flow reduces wear on the seals and other components of the sliding sleeve, which extends the operative life of the tool.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for automatic generation of dynamically assigned conditional follow-up tasks. A composition interface in which a user can compose an electronic mail message is provided. A mechanism within the composition interface to select a response window is provided. A follow-up task corresponding to the electronic mail message for the user is generated only if a response to the electronic mail message is not received within the response window.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide a support system in the Z direction for patterning devices that can function under high acceleration and deceleration with minimal effect on travel and hysteresis in the X and Y directions. A reticle clamping system includes a support device and a holding device. The holding device is configured to releasably couple a reticle to the support device.

Abstract: An authorization level is set at enrollment. Initiation information for a user of a device is provided during enrollment to an entity for authentication. The entity can be associated with a class defined by an ability of the entity to verify user identity. Verification data is received from the entity associated with user authentication. An authorization level is selected based on the verification data. An enrollment token is then generated that includes the authorization level that defines security parameters for the device.

Abstract: A flow control assembly includes a housing defining flow port that place an interior of the housing in fluid communication with an exterior of the housing, and a sliding sleeve defining sleeve ports and movably positioned within the interior between a first position, where fluid communication between the interior and the exterior via the flow ports is prevented, and a second positon, where fluid communication between the interior and the exterior is facilitated through the sleeve ports and the flow ports. A piston and a slip device are movably arranged within a piston chamber defined between the housing and the sliding sleeve. The piston has a first end exposed to an interior pressure and a second end exposed to an exterior pressure via chamber ports defined in the housing. A biasing device is also positioned within the piston chamber.

Abstract: A database system may implement communications language queries to query data based on relationships between communications. A user may input a communications language query, and may process the query at a user device or at a database server. In some cases, the database server may process the query based on a periodic or event-based trigger. Processing the query may involve identifying one or more sets of communication events based on the type of communication event or a property of the communication event (e.g., referred to as a moment or score), as well as a temporal, user, or geographic relationship between the sets of communication events. The user device or database server may return a timestamp of a communication event, moment, or score, a number of occurrences of communication events, moments, or scores, or a Boolean value indicating whether a particular communication event, moment, or score exists to the user.
