Abstract: A bellows motor expansion chamber for electric submersible pumps (ESP). An ESP assembly includes an electric submersible motor between a thrust chamber and a motor expansion chamber, the motor expansion chamber including a bellows coupled to a releasable bellows anti-movement system including a heat-activated release and alterable between an immobilizing position, wherein the releasable anti-movement system prevents concertinaed movement of the bellows in the immobilizing position, and a released position, wherein the bellows is concertinaedly moveable in the released position, and wherein the releasable bellows anti-movement system is in the immobilizing position below a release temperature and in the released position above the release temperature. A filter section within a well fluid inlet of the bellows motor expansion chamber includes a least two concentric filters of varying porosity, and a housing surrounding the filters including angled ribs and flow holes.

Abstract: A method for efficient dynamic video rendering is described for certain implementations. The method may include identifying a file for rendering a video comprising one or more static layers and one or more dynamic layers, detecting, based on analyzing one or more fields of the file for rendering a video, the one or more static layers and the one or more dynamic layers, wherein each dynamic layer comprises a comment that indicates a variable component, rendering the one or more static layers of the file, receiving, from a user device, a request for the video that includes user information, determining, based on the user information, variable definitions designated to be inserted into a dynamic layer, rendering the one or more dynamic layers using the variable definitions, and generating a composite video for playback from the rendered one or more static layers and the rendered one or more dynamic layers.

Abstract: A method for replacing an object in an image. The method may include identifying a first object at a position within a first image, masking, based on the first image and the position of the first object, a target area to produce a masked image, generating, based on the masked image and an inpainting machine learning model, a second image different from the first image, the inpainting machine learning model being trained using a difference between the target area of training images and content of generated images at location corresponding to the target area of the training images, generating, based on the masked image and the second image, a third image, and adding, to the third image, a new object different from the first object.

Abstract: This invention relates to polynucleotide sequences encoding a gene that can confer resistance to the plant pathogen Colletotrichum, which causes anthracnose stalk rot, leaf blight and top dieback in corn and other cereals. It further relates to plants and seeds of plants carrying chimeric genes comprising said polynucleotide sequences, which enhance or confer resistance to the plant pathogen Colletotrichum, and processes of making said plants and seeds. The invention further presents sequences that can be used as molecular markers that in turn can be used to identify the region of interest in corn lines resulting from new crosses and to quickly and efficiently introgress the gene from corn lines carrying said gene into other corn lines that do not carry said gene, in order to make them resistant to Colletotrichum and resistant to stalk rot.

Abstract: A set of light generating devices provide simultaneously emission of a first modulated light beam and at least a second modulated light beam. The set of light generating devices are positioned so that their respective light beams are incident on the scanning mirror at different elevation angles. A photodetector detects reflected light from the target. A simulation controller is coupled to receive data obtained from the reflected light to generate a scan control signal based on the receive data and a projectile trajectory path for the projectile to the target. The scan control signal sequentially scans the elevation angle of the scanning mirror so that the respective light beams simultaneously scan different sectors of the simulated trajectory path to obtain a simulation that represents the projectile trajectory path.
