  • Patent number: 11967321
    Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can interact with applications that may not have been pre-configured for interfacing with the automated assistant. The automated assistant can identify content of an application interface of the application to determine synonymous terms that a user may speak when commanding the automated assistant to perform certain tasks. Speech processing operations employed by the automated assistant can be biased towards these synonymous terms when the user is accessing an application interface of the application. In some implementations, the synonymous terms can be identified in a responsive language of the automated assistant when the content of the application interface is being rendered in a different language. This can allow the automated assistant to operate as an interface between the user and certain applications that may not be rendering content in a native language of the user.

  • Patent number: 10189896
    Abstract: The disclosure provides novel molecules related to growth and differentiation factor-8 (GDF8), in particular epitopes specific to GDF8 and other specific antagonists of GDF8 in particular anti-GDF8 antibodies or antigen binding protein or fragment thereof which may inhibit GDF8 activity and signal in vitro and/or in vivo. The disclosure also provides for an immunoassay used to detect and quantitate GDF8. The disclosure also provides methods for diagnosing, preventing, ameliorating, and treating GDF8-associated disorders, e.g., degenerative orders of muscle, bone, and insulin metabolism. Finally, the disclosure provides pharmaceuticals for the treatment of such disorders by using the antibodies, polypeptides, polynucleotides, and vectors of the invention.

  • Patent number: 10078321
    Abstract: Optimized positioning paths for multi-axis CNC machining can be generated based on the machine tool kinematics, machine axes travel limits, machine axis velocity and acceleration limits, and machine positioning methodologies. Machine axes travel limits and machine positioning methodologies are incorporated in order to ensure that the developed positioning paths do not violate machine axes travel limitations. Multi-axis positioning paths are developed to avoid collisions with dynamically changing in-process stock and other surroundings, including fixtures and both moving and non-moving components of the machine. Positioning tool path customizations give the user the flexibility to apply safety based constraints to the automatically generated tool paths. The disclosed automatic positioning path planning and optimization methods are used to develop a process for part manufacturing using CNC machining in order to reduce the manufacturing cycle time.

  • Patent number: 8087678
    Abstract: Combination cart and stand device comprised of a main frame assembly, a wheel assembly operatively coupled proximate to one end of the main frame assembly, and inner and outer support members pivotally coupled to the main frame assembly at a location distal from said wheel assembly wherein the main frame assembly, the inner support member, and the outer support member nest together to form a folded cart configuration while the main frame supports a liquid dispensing container which is transported by wheels of the wheel assembly rolling along an underlying surface of the device and wherein the inner and outer support members pivot apart and the main frame assembly pivots to an inverted elevated position for forming a stand configuration for supporting the liquid dispensing container in an elevated liquid dispensing position. Other types of containers can also be employed with the combination cart and stand device.
