  • Publication number: 20240134936
    Abstract: Implementations are described herein for learning mappings between a domain specific language (DSL) and images, and leveraging those mappings for various purposes. In various implementations, a method for using a DSL to generate training data may include processing data indicative of ground truth image(s) depicting a real plant using a trained image-to-DSL machine learning (ML) model to generate a first expression in the DSL that describes structure of the real plant. The first expression may include a plurality of parameters, and may be processed to programmatically generate a plurality of synthetic DSL expressions. Each respective synthetic DSL expression may describe structure of a respective synthetic plant for which parameter(s) have been altered from the first expression. The synthetic DSL expressions may be processed using a renderer to create three-dimensional (3D) synthetic plant models. Two-dimensional (2D) synthetic images may be generated that depict the 3D synthetic plant models in an area.

  • Publication number: 20240090564
    Abstract: Features relating to a vaporizer body are provided. The vaporizer body may include an outer shell that includes an inner region defined by an outer shell sidewall. A support structure is configured to fit within the inner region of the outer shell. The support structure includes a storage region defined by a top support structure, a bottom support structure, a bottom cap, and a gasket. An integrated board assembly is configured to fit within the storage region of the support structure. The integrated board assembly may include a printed circuit board assembly formed of multiple layers that form a rigid structure and that include an inner, flexible layer. A first antenna is integrated at a proximal end of the flexible layer, and a second antenna is integrated at a distal end of the flexible layer.

  • Publication number: 20190220883
    Abstract: Some embodiments include a system to encourage user pick-up over home delivery of an item being made available to a user for purchase. The system can comprise one or more processors and/or one or more non-transitory memory storage devices. The one or more memory storage devices can store computer instructions configured to run on the one or more processors and perform acts of: causing the item to be displayed on a graphical user interface; and when the item is to be received by the user by user pick-up, evaluating whether the item is eligible to be made available for purchase at a user pick-up discounted retail price that is less than a home delivery retail price at which the item is made available for purchase when the item is to be received by the user by home delivery. Other embodiments of related systems and methods are also provided.
