Abstract: There is disclosed in an example a computing apparatus for assigning an entropy score to a document to be added to a corpus in a first temporal state having a first corpus entropy, having one or more logic elements, including at least one hardware logic element, providing a classification engine to: receive the document to be added to the corpus; add the document to the corpus, creating a second temporal state of the corpus; compute a second corpus entropy for the second temporal state, based at least in part on a morphism; and assign the document a gentropy score based at least in part on a difference between the first corpus entropy and the second corpus entropy.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for preparing a conifer seedling with increased tolerance to a pest. A conifer seedling is inoculated with an isolated endophyte when the conifer seedling is susceptible to colonization by the endophyte.

Abstract: The disclosure pertains to isolated white pine toxigenic endophytes and the compounds produced by the fungal endophytes as well as methods and uses of the white pine endophytes. The isolated white pine toxigenic endophytes are useful for preparing white pine seedlings and plants that have increased tolerance to a pest and are prepared by inoculating a white pine seedling during the susceptible time window.

Abstract: An antenna mount attaches an antenna to a commercial vehicle. Often, such vehicles do not include antenna mounts for items such as a CB or satellite radio. The antenna mount may permit such antennas to be installed, interconnecting with an existing spot mirror attachment point. The antenna mount includes a bracket adapted to connect to a vehicle, typically between a spot mirror and a vehicle door, using the existing spot mirror mounting bolts. One or more rods may extend from the bracket. Antennas may then be attached to the rods. The antenna mount may allow for mounting capability for CB and/or satellite radio antennas. The chosen location of the antenna mount, behind the spot mirror, may also maximize satellite and CB radio signals.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for conserving power on a mobile device through motion awareness. The method includes a motion model that receives location information from one or more receivers and an accelerometer. The motion model determines whether the mobile device is in motion based on the received information. If the mobile device is in motion, a scanning rate for the one or more receivers is determined based on a velocity vector, the velocity vector being determined from the received information; the determined scanning rate is sent to the one or more receivers to enable them to operate at the determined scanning rate; and the process is repeated. If the mobile device is not in motion, the scanning operations for the one or more receivers are halted while the mobile device is stationary; scanning operations for the one or more receivers are resumed when an indication that the mobile device is moving again is received from the accelerometer; and the process is repeated.

Abstract: An apparatus for displaying miniaturized graphical representations (i.e., thumbnails) of documents for alternative viewing selection by a user. A current document is displayed on a display panel of a graphical user interface (GUI) for viewing and/or manipulation by a user. The GUI further includes a plurality of selection panels that collectively form a border around the current document of the display panel. Disposed on these selection panels are a plurality of thumbnails of other documents that are deemed relevant to the current document by a predetermined, user-defined criterion. Selection of one of these thumbnails conveniently displays the document represented by such thumbnail to be displayed on the display panel in lieu of the current document. Advantageously, documents deemed relevant to a currently displayed document are easily accessible to the user.
