Abstract: Examples for detection of defects in an additively manufactured object are provided. In one aspect, a method is provided. The method comprises receiving in-situ spectral data measured from the additively manufactured object during an additive manufacturing process, constructing a graph data structure using the in-situ spectral data, and outputting a predicted defect region using the graph data structure and a trained graph-learning neural network.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for modifying queries in a discourse context. In one aspect, a method includes determining whether a query received from a user device subsequent to information provided to a user device and that defines a discourse context belongs to the discourse context. If the query belongs to the discourse context, the query is modified to take into account attributes of the discourse context.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a axial flux permanent magnet synchronous motor for use in a washing machine, comprising: a stator comprising a plurality of stator coils arranged about an annular core of the stator, and an insulating structure to electrically insulate the stator coils; and a rotor concentric with the stator and carrying a plurality of permanent magnets; wherein said stator and rotor are configured to rotate relative to one another about a common axis through the interaction of magnetic fields generated by the stator coils and permanent magnets, and wherein the rotor and stator are spaced relative to one another along the common axis so that the magnetic flux path between the rotor magnets and stator coils is oriented in the axial direction.

Abstract: Sampling probe devices, systems and methods for sampling frozen or solid meltable products. Such systems can include a heating element for placing against the frozen or solid product and a sampler with a cover fabricated at least partly from a microbial sampling medium so the cover absorbs a liquid sample from the product. Methods of sampling include heating the product and contacting the product with the cover until sufficient liquid sample is absorbed by the cover of the sampler. The cover can be weighed after sampling and compared to a before-sampling weight to confirm sufficient liquid was obtained. The sample can be tested as an aggregate sample that is representative of the lot or batch of product being sampled, including testing without an enrichment procedure. Systems utilizing automated heated-sampling plates and radiative heaters are also described.

Abstract: A liquid pharmaceutical formulation, wherein the pharmaceutical formulation comprises a PTH conjugate, a buffering agent, an isotonicity agent, a preservative and optionally an antioxidant and wherein the PTH conjugate comprises a PTH moiety that is covalently and reversibly conjugated to a water-soluble carrier moiety.

Abstract: A displacement sensor comprises a magnetic field source generating a magnetic field and a magnetic field sensor arrangement adapted to contactlessly detect a relative position of the magnetic field source with respect to the magnetic field sensor arrangement. The magnetic field sensor arrangement includes a first magnetic field sensor adapted to generate a first position signal and a second magnetic field sensor adapted to generate a second position signal. Each of the first magnetic field sensor and the second magnetic field sensor has a magnetic field probe adapted to detect a magnetic flux density of the magnetic field, an evaluation unit for evaluating an output signal of the magnetic field probe, and a communication interface for emitting and receiving a plurality of communication signals. The first magnetic field sensor and the second magnetic field sensor are connected to each other via a data bus for transmitting the communication signals.

Abstract: A material transfer vehicle includes a loading conveyor and a loading component (such as a truck-receiving hopper component or a windrow pick-up component) that is adapted to be removably attached to the lower end of the loading conveyor. The loading conveyor has a right guide plate on the right side of the lower end and a left guide plate on the left side of the lower end. The loading component has a right guide bracket that is adapted to align with and engage the right guide plate of the loading conveyor, and a left guide bracket that is adapted to align with and engage the left guide plate of the loading conveyor.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for rewriting contextual queries. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a first query for a user session, determining contextual data associated with the first query, receiving a second query subsequent to the first query for the user session, determining that the second query is associated with the contextual data, determining that the second query corresponds to a particular template determined based on at least one of the contextual data or the second query, generating a third query based on the particular template, the contextual data, and the second query, and providing the third query as an input for an action that is responsive to the second query.

Abstract: A system and method for associating NIS attributes with CIFS client. Upon requesting attributes by a CIFS client, a CIFS security ID (SID) is generated for the owner and group from the NIS attributes associated with the NIS name. The generated SIDs are returned to the CIFS client. The SIDs are generated using the NIS UID or GID and a CIFS domain associated with the file server storing the referenced file.
