Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for producing a multicomponent feedstock being delivered through a print head of a 3D printer. Multiple component lengths are produced from separate feedstocks and are aligned to form the multicomponent feedstock which is fed into the print head for extrusion. The method includes providing at least two sources of feedstock of different material, feeding a distal end of a first feedstock along a feed path, cutting the first feedstock at a pre-determined length to provide a length of first feedstock having a proximal end. The method includes feeding a distal end of a second feedstock along the feed path and aligning the distal end of the second feedstock with the proximal end of the length of the first feedstock. The second feedstock is cut at a pre-determined length to provide a length of the second feedstock serially aligned with the length of first feedstock, to form a length of multicomponent feedstock. The length of multicomponent feedstock is fed into the print head.

Abstract: Devices and techniques are generally described for generating personalized search query suggestions. In some examples, a first search query entered by a user into a search field may be determined. A first keyword associated with the first search query may be determined based at least in part on past interactions of the user with content. In various examples, first string data comprising at least a portion of the first search query and the first keyword may be generated. A data store may be searched using the first string data. A first suggested search string associated with the first string data may be determined. In some examples, the first suggested search string may be displayed on a display in association with the search field.

Abstract: Disclosed are one or more embodiments for a unique and personalized experience for a user interacting with an electronic commerce site by identifying user-preferred item attributes using supervised machine learning and presenting items to the user in an arrangement that is based on the identified item attributes. A shopping mission is determined according to user interactions with an electronic commerce site. The shopping mission is applied to an attribute prediction model that is trained to detect user-preferred item attributes for items included the item category and estimate a likelihood that an item containing a particular attribute will be purchased or interacted with during the interactions with the electronic commerce site.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for analyzing one or more online shopping missions to determine an estimated stage of a user within the mission and to adjust content for display to the user based on the estimated stage of the user within the mission. The estimated stage of the user within the mission may be determined using a model, such as a machine learning model, that accepts as input signals corresponding to the online shopping mission. The signals may represent user interface interactions and/or other data relating to the user and the mission.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for electronic catalog user experience improvements based on extracted item attributes. An example method includes obtaining information identifying items viewed during a user browsing session, the items being included in an electronic catalog, and the electronic catalog being organized according to a hierarchy, with the hierarchy comprising a plurality of categories. Information identifying attributes associated with the identified items is identified, and the attributes are ranked according to attribute relevance score. Items are determined for recommendation to the user based on the ranked attribute relevance scores, with the determined items being selected from items included in the electronic catalog which are also associated with a same category as the identified items.

Abstract: A decision tree is provided as a machine learning classifier to predict a user attribute, such as a geographical location of a user, based on a network address. More specifically, the decision tree is constructed via machine learning on a set of sample data that reflects a relationship between a network address and a user attribute of a “known user” whose profile information is recognizable. For a given network address, the decision tree can be used as a machine learning classifier to predict the most likely user attribute of a potential user. With the predicted attribute, a network service can target a group of potential users for various campaigns without recognizing the identities of the potential users.

Abstract: The combination greenhouse cold frame apparatus includes two foldable side panels that cover two arched sides that have a plurality of arched vertical legs to provide a framework for the foldable side panels. The arched sides are connected with the help of a junction between them that has a plurality of top frame connectors each having two ends that are dimensioned to receive the arched vertical legs. The top frame connectors also have a U-shaper portion dimensioned to hold the foldable side panels in different stages of retraction. A plurality of securing devices connectable to an exterior of the arched vertical legs is used to secure the foldable side panels when they are in a partially open position. Each foldable side panel can independently or jointly be opened from a top in a downward direction or from a bottom in an upward direction completely or partially, thereby providing adjustable amounts of sunlight and ventilation for plants enclosed by the combination green house and cold frame apparatus.
