Abstract: Systems and methods for generating vehicle safety scores and vehicle collision probabilities are provided. The methods involve operating at least one processor to: retrieve vehicle data originating from a telematics device installed in a vehicle, the vehicle data including a plurality of safety exception events performed by the vehicle; determine a plurality of exception rates based on the vehicle data, each exception rate representing a normalized rate of occurrence of one of the exception event types; determine plurality of collision sub-probabilities using a plurality of collision probability models and the plurality of exception rates, each collision probability model associated with one of the exception event types and operable to predict one of the collision sub-probabilities based on one of the exception rates of the associated exception event type; and determine a collision probability for the vehicle based on the plurality of collision sub-probabilities.

Abstract: A system is provided that may include one or more processors that may receive one or more signals relating to operation of an energy system of a vehicle. The processors may calculate an operational status of the energy storage system based at least in part on comparing the one or more signals with one or more designated criteria related to the energy storage system. The processors may automatically control a shutdown and a startup of an engine of the vehicle responsive to the operational status of the energy storage system being below a threshold.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for controlling spraying of chemicals by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). An unmanned aerial vehicle system includes one or more processors configured to perform operations of autonomously performing a flight path by the UAV and dispersing a chemical by the UAV along portions of the flight path. The UAV may include a chemical spray system having one or more spray booms with multiple nozzles for dispersing a chemical. The chemical spray system may include one or more tanks attached to the body of the UAV and a pump fluidly connected to the tanks to disperse chemical via the spray booms.

Abstract: Disclosed are polypeptides comprising an engineered recombinant EPO. For example, disclosed are polypeptides comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1. Disclosed are variant Epo polypeptides comprising three amino acid substitutions at positions 20, 45 and 97 of wild type human Epo. Disclosed are polynucleotides comprising a nucleic acid capable of encoding one or more of the disclosed polypeptides. Disclosed are vectors comprising any of the polynucleotides disclosed herein. Disclosed are compositions comprising the disclosed polypeptides, polynucleotides or vectors. Disclosed are cells comprising one or more of the disclosed polypeptides, one or more of the disclosed polynucleotides, and/or one or more of the disclosed vectors. Disclosed are methods of using a therapeutically effective amount of one or more of the disclosed polypeptides, nucleic acids or vectors to a subject in need thereof.
