  • Patent number: 10956517
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for generating holistic maps and relocating social media assets. The computer may receive a plurality of social media assets to be relocated or merged from a user. A snapshot of each asset within the plurality of social media assets may be generated. The snapshot may be a record of the plurality of social media assets at any one time. A machine learning model may be generated for the plurality of social media assets based on the generated snapshot. A projected location may be identified based on the generated machine learning model. A new snapshot may be generated based on the projected location. It may be determined whether a transaction was successful based on a comparison of the snapshot with the new snapshot. An action may be performed based on the determination.

  • Patent number: 9950050
    Abstract: The invention provides a protein comprising hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg) with a sugar attached to an e1 loop. The protein may comprise a first and a second copy of HBcAg in tandem, wherein one or both copies of HBcAg has a sugar attached to the e1 loop. The first copy may have a sugar attached to the e1 loop and the second copy may comprise a peptide epitope in the e1 loop. The protein may be used to induce an immune response against the sugar and hence act as a vaccine.

  • Publication number: 20180071384
    Abstract: The invention provides a protein comprising hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg) with a sequence of the formula XpZqXr in an e1 loop, wherein X is a negatively charged amino acid residue, Z is a positively charged amino acid residue, and p, q N and r are each independently an integer from 1 to 12, and wherein a sugar is attached to a Z residue. The protein may comprise a first and a second copy of HBcAg in tandem, wherein one or both copies of HBcAg has a sugar attached to the e1 loop. The first copy may have a sugar attached to the e1 loop and the second copy may comprise a peptide epitope in the e1 loop. The protein may be used to induce an immune response against the sugar and hence act as a vaccine.

  • Publication number: 20050143868
    Abstract: A method of providing broadband data services over power lines for moving vehicles is provided herein. Using broadband over power line (BPL) networking, a data signal is connected to a vehicle that is connected to a transport power line. The signal is communicated from the transport power line to the vehicle. The signal is then demodulated for use aboard the vehicle. The data signal connection allows for access to wide area networks such as the Internet. Access points can wirelessly broadcast wide area network signals from stationary locations to define meshed wireless networks in metropolitan areas.
