Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for receiving a request to display an avatar within a graphical user interface of a client device, authenticating the request based on user data, retrieving the avatar from a database, transmitting the avatar to the client device and presenting the avatar within the user interface of the client device.

Abstract: A composite scaffold having a highly porous interior with increased surface area and void volume is surrounded by a flexible support structure that substantially maintains its three-dimensional shape under tension and provides mechanical reinforcement during repair or reconstruction of soft tissue while simultaneously facilitating regeneration of functional tissue.

Abstract: A method of assessing the quality of a biological sample while maintaining the viability of the biological sample for intended use analysis is described herein. The method includes analyzing a biological sample obtained from a subject for an intended use, assessing the quality of the biological sample using one or more biomarkers of sample quality, and simultaneously performing intended use analysis on the same sample. Assessing the quality of the sample can include assessing compliance with sample handling protocols and assessing subject compliance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the production of steviol glycoside rebaudiosides D4, WB1 and WB2 and the production of rebaudioside M from Reb D4.

Abstract: The present application relates to the treatment of nematode infections. For example, the application relates to the use of compounds of Formula (III) as defined herein for treatment of a nematode infection or a disease, disorder or condition arising from a nematode infection.

Abstract: Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure improve the functionality of electronic messaging software and systems by generating and selecting customized media content items (such as images) with avatars of different users within electronic messages based on the context of communications between the users. For example, users of different mobile computing devices can exchange electronic communications with each other, and the system can analyze these communications to present options for media content items containing the users' avatars based on content in the communications, actions or events taken by or involving the users, or combinations thereof. The users may select such media content items for inclusion in their electronic communications.

Abstract: Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure improve the functionality of electronic messaging and imaging software and systems by generating and displaying media overlays with avatars of different users. For example, media overlays can be generated by the system and displayed in conjunction with media content (e.g., images and/or video) generated by an image-capturing device (e.g., a digital camera).

Abstract: Some implementations of a table system can include a protective member that is positionable below a table to provide protection to both a table and chairs. The protective member can extend lateral beyond a peripheral edge of the table top, for example, to protect the table and accessory furniture while allowing the table top and the peripheral edge of the table top to remain exposed.

Abstract: A composite scaffold having a highly porous interior with increased surface area and void volume is surrounded by a flexible support structure that substantially maintains its three-dimensional shape under tension and provides mechanical reinforcement during repair or reconstruction of soft tissue while simultaneously facilitating regeneration of functional tissue.

Abstract: Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure improve the functionality of electronic messaging software and systems by generating customized images with avatars of different users within electronic messages. For example, users of different mobile computing devices can exchange electronic communications with images generated to include avatars representing themselves as well as their friends, colleagues, and other acquaintances.

Abstract: Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for modifying avatar components of avatar datasets for multiple users, generating avatars based on the datasets, and displaying multiple avatars on a display screen of a graphical user interface.

Abstract: A fault insertion device (FID) comprises a transceiver and an FPGA. The transceiver receives signals from a MIL-STD-1553/1760 communications bus. The FPGA evaluates the signals received from the communications bus against a set of rules stored by the FPGA. Based upon the set of rules, the FPGA can selectively modify messages received from the communications bus prior to transmission to a remote terminal or a bus controller that is configured to communicate on the communications bus.

Abstract: The present invention relates to microbial production of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), nicotinamide riboside (NR), and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) using a genetically modified bacterium.

Abstract: As solution for predistorting a signal is presented. The solution comprises receiving (600) as an input a signal comprising at least two signal components on a different band, sampling (602) the input signal comprising linear terms, composite non-linear terms causing intermodulation outside Nyquist band of the input signal and further non-linear terms causing intermodulation inside the Nyquist band, the further non-linear terms comprising multi-band terms. Oversampling (604) by a given factor is applied to the signal in a first predistortion circuit for processing the linear terms and composite non-linear terms causing intermodulation outside Nyquist band; processing (606) the input signal without oversampling in a second predistortion circuit in parallel with the first predistortion circuit for the further non-linear terms. The rates of the output signals of the predistortion circuits are matched (608), combined and filtered (610).
