  • Publication number: 20240143905
    Abstract: A method for partially publishing edits to a document is described. A first document including a first cell and a second cell is displayed on first user account on a first computing device and on a second user account. A second document including a linked version of the first cell and a linked version of the second cell is displayed. An edit of the first cell is received from the first user account and an edit of the second cell is received. In response to receiving an indication from the first user account that the edit of the first cell is to be published, the edit of the first cell is made to the linked version of the first cell, while the linked version of the second cell is unchanged so that the content of the linked version of the second cell no longer matches that of the second cell.

  • Patent number: 11681880
    Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for neural machine translation (NMT) of languages between network operation systems. The languages may be a query language, such as a XML path, to navigate through elements and attributes in an XML document. An NMT model comprises an encoder and a decoder to implement the machine translation. The encoder encodes a source sentence as a sequence of encoder hidden states. The decoder may incorporate attention mechanism to generate a target sentence, conditioned on the encoder hidden states. The NMT model may also use a modified beam search with variable beam width and search scope for each search step to speed up search process with a balance of accuracy and processing cost. Evaluation results demonstrate that embodiments of the present disclosure may be used in a recommender system for XPath auto-generation between different network operation systems.

  • Publication number: 20220041977
    Abstract: The invention relates to a matrix-mediated algal cell culture system comprising a porous matrix, a microalgal cell culture comprising cells immobilised on the porous matrix, and a vector including a nucleic acid sequence encoding a heterologous polypeptide of interest, wherein immobilisation of microalgal cells on the porous matrix results in the formation of interstitial spaces between the microalgal cells to allow for increased contact of the microalgal cells with the vector compared with a culture of microalgal cells which are not immobilised on a porous matrix, thereby allowing for more efficient transfection of the microalgal cells with the vector. The invention also relates to methods of screening single species of microalgae and mixed ecology samples for the ability to be transfected using the algal cell culture system, and to methods for the production of heterologous polypeptides using the matrix-mediated cell culture system.
