Abstract: An expansion tool includes a housing, a collar rotatably coupled to the housing, a plurality of jaws coupled for co-rotation with the collar, a mandrel movable relative to the housing between a retracted position and an extended position to expand the jaws, and a drive mechanism including a rotatable cam. Rotation of the cam moves the mandrel between the retracted position and the extended position. The expansion tool further includes an indexing gear configured to incrementally receive torque from the drive mechanism such that continuous rotation of the drive mechanism incrementally rotates the indexing gear, and a clutch assembly including a clutch gear meshed with the indexing gear, a clutch cover surrounding the clutch gear, and a plurality of rolling elements disposed between the clutch gear and the clutch cover. The clutch cover is drivably coupled to the collar such that rotation of the clutch cover rotates the collar.

Abstract: Embodiments offer monitoring, visualization, and/or error handling for large volumes of electronic documents. A document handling system may visualize documents in other than table format (e.g., a flow chart view presenting documents in the context of a process for which they are created and used). Certain embodiments may provide automated recognition of document errors based upon classification of error types. Such monitoring may involve grouping documents together according to error type. This allows efficient correction of errors in grouped documents, rather than requiring the user to correct each document individually. Specific embodiments may further provide suggestions of solutions for error correction. Such intelligent recommendation can be based upon supervised learning models trained with data corpuses of prior correction efforts involving compliance with legal requirements and/or internal guidelines.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments for providing electrical connection between trunk sections of an artificial tree. In some embodiments, forces are created between electrical connectors on plugs and sockets to ensure a secure electrical connection. In other embodiments, pins and sockets are used in conjunction with rotational orientation devices to ensure proper orientations of the pins and sockets.

Abstract: In an approach for detecting key messages for a video, a processor builds a role model based on data from one or more data sources, with an identification feature of each role in a video. A processor samples a plurality of frames of the video. A processor identifies a key object presented in the plurality of frames. The key object is a role in the video. A processor recognizes a movement scenario associated with the role. A processor dynamically updates the role model based on the movement scenario. A processor identifies a role name based on the movement scenario. A processor generates a description script associated with the movement scenario for the role. A processor outputs the description script.

Abstract: Disclosed is a unique trunk of a tree pole for a pre-lit Christmas tree. An inexpensive and easily fabricated circuit board is placed inside the tree trunk that has light sockets mounted directly to the printed circuit board. In addition, controllers and IoT devices can also be mounted on the printed circuit board. Pre-lit Christmas trees can be monitored and operated from any Internet location and each of the light strings on each of the branches can be separately controlled.

Abstract: A new hydrogel made of crosslinked glycosaminoglycans, particularly crosslinked hyaluronic acid, chondroitin or chondroitin sulfate, having reversible linkages using boronic acid or boroxole derivatives leading to new benefits. Glycosaminoglycans that are crosslinked via an alkoxyboronate ester anion formed between a diol portion of a diol-functional moiety grafted to a first glycosaminoglycan and a boronate hemiester grafted to a second glycosaminoglycan.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of adaptable LED light strings that can be configured by a user to decorate Christmas trees, outdoor features such as houses and patios, outdoor trees, windows and architecture of houses. A plurality of light string channels are used, which are connected to individual light strings which can be shorter strings that are easy to install and remove. In some embodiments, light strings may be configured to connect to additional light strings to provide longer light strings. Each of the light string channels can be individually controlled to produce different effects on each of the light strings.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for memory corruption diagnosis is provided. The present invention may include generating a pattern expression (PE) header file, wherein a plurality of common datatypes associated with a software program are pre-defined. The invention may further include generating a PE for each of the plurality of common datatypes, and generating a PE table by merging the generated PEs for each of the plurality of common datatypes. Upon discovery that memory corruption has occurred, the invention may include transmitting a recorded state of the software program as a core dump file to a server, and using a dump utility to identify overlay content of the core dump file. Lastly, the invention may include identifying a possible source program of the memory corruption by matching the PE tables against the illegally-written overlay content.

Abstract: Disclosed is a waterproof LED light string that provides outdoor lighting in a simple and reliable manner. Waterproof bulb assemblies are used with replaceable LED light sources. The bulb assemblies are easily suspended from a rope or wire, screwed to a support, or magnetically supported from a ferrous metal support. Duplicate circuitry in the LED light source allows the LED light source to be connected in either direction.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating task reminders. The method includes identifying, using a processor, a task description by parsing digital text from a message in an application. The method further includes obtaining context information from the parsed digital text indicating an association between the task description and the application. The method additionally includes generating, using the processor, a task reminder based on the obtained context information, the task reminder including digital text indicating the association between the task description and the application.
