  • Patent number: 11836443
    Abstract: When composing an electronic message having at least one intended recipient, a contact manager provides contact information for one or more related recipients. The contact manager may receive an identifier associated with the intended recipient(s), which may be used to lookup and identify contact information for related recipient(s). The contact manager may access a contact database, and, using the identifier and relationship information, determine a contact for the related recipient. The contact manager may then populate the contact information for the contact in a recipient field or other compose surface.

  • Publication number: 20210193269
    Abstract: The present invention enables accurate identification of organisms by analyzing their DNA sequences and, based on their DNA sequences, assessing classification annotations, such as taxonomic, systematic, or functional annotations. Sequence-based identification of life forms as described herein can be used for diagnostic purposes, for example. Further, the techniques disclosed herein offer advantages over conventional culture-based techniques. Example embodiments are related to methods for assessing classification annotations assigned to DNA sequences of organisms. One example embodiment includes a method of identifying a centroid DNA sequence of one or more organisms. The method includes obtaining a plurality of DNA sequences from one or more organisms, annotating each DNA sequence with a classification annotation, and grouping the plurality of DNA sequences into a plurality of groups.

  • Publication number: 20210158237
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for performing vegetation management processes. The processes can include obtaining first data identifying vegetation growth proximate to utility lines. The processes can include identifying a set of trees as being likely to interfere with a respective utility line near the tree. The processes can include determining, for each tree in the set of trees, an impact score that indicates a severity of a power outage that would be caused by interference of the tree with a power line. The processes can include selecting, based on the impact scores, individual trees to be trimmed. The processes can include generating trimming data that includes the location of the tree on a graphical map, and providing the trimming data for display on the one or more computing devices.
