  • Publication number: 20240029375
    Abstract: An embodiment includes accessing captured video of a first physical object in a physical environment. The embodiment also includes detecting a feature of the first physical object in a first frame of the video. The embodiment encodes a first qubit with a first quantum state based on a first value of the feature of the first physical object, and then entangles the first qubit with a second qubit forming an entangled qubit pair. The embodiment detects a second quantum state of the second qubit of the entangled qubit pair and renders computer-generated content of a virtual environment that includes a computer-generated first virtual object that corresponds to the first physical object, where the rendering comprises determining a property of the first virtual object based on the detected second quantum state.

  • Publication number: 20230083601
    Abstract: Using a first trained residual neural network, an event analysis is generated from a set of event description encodings, an event description encoding in the set of event description encodings encoding a natural language description of an event, the event analysis comprising a first set of coordinates in an event space. Using a second trained residual neural network, the event analysis and a user description encoding, a personalization analysis is generated, the user description encoding a user interaction with the event, the personalization analysis comprising a component of a second set of coordinates in the event space. Using a combination of the event analysis and the personalization analysis, a first event component is activated, the first event component comprising a component of the event.

  • Publication number: 20220186316
    Abstract: A method for characterizing compatibility of a drug for a user includes collecting a set of samples from a set of individuals comprising a set of first individuals who respond to a therapy for a microbiome-related condition and a set of second individuals who do not respond to the therapy for the microbiome-related condition and determining one or more datasets based on the set of samples. A set of microbiome features is extracted from the one or more microbiome datasets, the microbiome features facilitating differentiation between individuals who respond and individuals who do not respond to the therapy. A companion diagnostics model is determined based on the set of microbiome features. The compatibility of the drug for the user is then determined using the companion diagnostics model.
