Abstract: An optical gene biosensor is disclosed. The optical gene biosensor includes a substrate; a molecular beacon anchored to the substrate, wherein the molecular beacon includes an oligonucleotide specifically binding to a target nucleic acid molecule and a first compound bound to a first terminal of the oligonucleotide; an optical marker specifically binding to the first compound, wherein the optical marker is configured to retro-reflect irradiated light; a light source for irradiating the optical marker with light; and a light-receiver for receiving light retro-reflected from the optical marker. The optical gene biosensor may perform accurate quantitative analysis of a target nucleic acid molecule using both non-spectral and spectral light sources.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and storage media for dynamically modifying ads at point of display based on target user are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive a plurality of visual content items; receive information indicative of a user preference associated with a user device; determine a type of visual content item to deliver to a plurality of user devices; determine, based on the type of visual content item and the information indicative of the user preference, a subset of visual content items of the plurality of visual content items; select, for the user device, a visual content item from the subset of visual content items; modify, based on the information indicative of the user preference, a graphical quality of the visual content item to output a modified graphical quality; and send the visual content item with the modified graphical quality to the user device.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cable adaptor which is connected to a cable including an outer conductor. The adaptor includes a contact pin which comes into contact with a signal pin of the cable, a first member which is conductive and disposed inside and coupled to the contact pin, a second member disposed outside and coupled to the contact pin, and a third member which is conductive and disposed outside the second member. Here, the contact pin includes a first body coupled to the second member, a first contact portion which is conductive and extends from one side of the first body to come into contact with the signal pin, and a second contact portion which extends from the other side of the first body and comes into contact with an object being tested. The third member includes a second body coupled to the second member and a third contact portion.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cable adaptor comprising a first member which is conductive and comes into contact with a signal pin of the cable, a second member disposed outside the first member and coupled to the first member, a third member which is conductive and disposed outside the second member, and a contact pin fixed to the first member. Here, the first member includes a first body coupled to the second member and a first contact portion which extends from the first body and comes into contact with the signal pin. The third member includes a second body coupled to the second member and a second contact portion which extends from the second body and comes into contact with the outer conductor. A plurality of first contact points of the signal pin and the first contact portion are arranged at same intervals along a circumferential direction of the signal pin.

Abstract: A real-time messaging platform allows advertiser accounts to pay to insert candidate messages into the message streams requested by account holders. To accommodate multiple advertisers, the messaging platform controls an auction process that determines which candidate messages are selected for inclusion in a requested account holder's message stream. Selection is based on a bid for the candidate message, the message stream that is requested, and a variety of other factors that vary depending upon the implementation. The process for selection of candidate messages generally includes the following steps, though any given step may be omitted or combined into another step in a different implementation: targeting, filtering, prediction, ranking, and selection.

Abstract: An artificial hip joint stem is used to replace the damaged femoral head or acetabulum and includes a stem body having a head fixing part, which fixes a head, and an operating space horizontally opened at the upper side thereof. A head insertion hole connects to the operating space. A screw part is inserted into the head insertion hole. An operation converting part is inserted into the operating space to vertically move by the screw part when the operation converting part is connected to the screw part. A fixing bracket is inserted into the operating space such that the screw part is fixed to rotate without changing the depth thereof. A variable operating part is inserted into a supporting surface of the stem body to adjust a horizontal width by means of the operation converting part. A movable pin fixes the variable operating part to the operation converting part.

Abstract: Causal topic mining can include incorporating non-text time series data with a number of articles based on a time relationship and analyzing the incorporated non-text time series data and the number of articles at a particular time to determine a causal relationship.

Abstract: A method for generating summaries of text is described. The method includes the step of extracting features from text of text lists from summaries. The explanatoriness of the text is then evaluated, wherein evaluating the explanatoriness of text includes evaluating the features of the text, including at least the step of evaluating the discriminativeness of the features of the text by comparing the text to a first text data set, wherein the first text data set is derived from a topic label. The evaluated text is then ranked based on the explanatoriness evaluation.

Abstract: A technique may include generating a plurality of segments from sentences in a data set. The technique may further include determining the explanatoriness of each segment.
