Abstract: A method for associating a meeting invitation with a team includes receiving a meeting invitation from an email system comprising names of invitees and receiving team information from a team system comprising names of team members and team topics. Using a trained machine learning model, a match metric representing similarity between teams and the meeting invitation is calculated. Calculating the match metric includes determining an attendee score based on invitees who are team members and a topic score based on comparison between a meeting topic and team topics. The match metric is based on the attendee score and topic score. The trained machine learning model uses names of invitees, names of team members, and team topics. The method further includes adding to the meeting invitation a link to the team with the highest match metric.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of controlling tape drive magnetic head spacing and the use of hard disk drive heads in a tape drive. The present invention is related to magnetic tape data storage and tape recorders that include components designed to minimize or eliminate head-to-tape contact to reduce or eliminate wear and contamination of the tape and the magnetic heads. Methods and apparatus of the present invention may control the head-to-media spacing by moving locations of magnetic heads relative to a tape. Such apparatus may include components designed to minimize magnetic spacing. This may be accomplished using actuators that move magnetic heads, or that move both magnetic heads and the tape of a tape drive. This may include supporting a back surface of the tape. The movement of the tape past the magnetic heads may be performed using mechanisms that contact and drive the back surface of the tape.

Abstract: In an illustrative embodiment, systems and methods for monitoring insurance claims include identifying, based on predetermined monitoring frequency, insurance claims identified for vulnerability detection processing. Vulnerability detection features may be extracted from data files of the claims, which provide an indication of claim handling deficiencies that can cause claim leakage. A trained vulnerability detection data model can be used to detect claim handling vulnerabilities within the extracted vulnerability detection features where each of the vulnerabilities may include a likelihood of the vulnerability resulting in claim leakage. The vulnerability detection data model may be trained with a data set customized to a respective insurance provider for each claim. Vulnerability scores indicating an overall likelihood of claim leakage can be calculated for the claims based on the detected claim handling vulnerabilities.

Abstract: A saxophone mouthpiece is provided, comprising a main body. The main body includes an assembling portion and a mouthpiece portion. The mouthpiece portion defines a front end and a rear end relative to each other, and the rear end is connected with the assembling portion. One side of the mouthpiece portion has a window disposed thereon and is configured to be pressed against by a reed, and another side of the mouthpiece portion has a baffle disposed thereon. Two opposite sides of the window have two side rails facing outwardly, and each of the two side rails includes a first arcuate convex segment, a non-arcuate convex segment and a second arcuate convex segment arranged sequentially from the front end toward the rear end. Therefore, a reed arranged on the saxophone mouthpiece can be vibrated smoothly to produce expected tone and scale.

Abstract: There is provided an inorganic hierarchical porous membrane comprising at least two layers, wherein each layer of the at least two layers comprises a different average pore size as compared to another layer of the at least two layers, and wherein the membrane comprises a patterned surface. There is also provided a method of forming the membrane.

Abstract: Aspects and embodiments herein pertain to global ML prediction applied in a data security context. In some examples, a global prediction pertaining to a data item as a whole (the ‘original’ data item) is generated using an ML predictor. A data element is masked by removing it from the data item, or obscuring it in some way (e.g., through modification or replacement). The same ML predictor is applied to the perturbed data item. A change in global confidence between the original data item and the perturbed data item denotes local significance of the individual data item (or subset of data items) that have been masked. Other significance indicators (such as start and end markers of significant sections) are also considered. Other methods of estimating local significance are considered. In some examples, one or more such methods are used to generate training data for training a self-interpretation ML model.

Abstract: Novel antisense oligonucleotides that induce Exon-2 skipping in the CD33 gene during pre-mRNA splicing, and their use in the treatment of a neurodegenerative disease, such as Alzheimer's disease, are disclosed.

Abstract: A mesoporous, nanocrystalline, metal oxide construct particularly suited for capacitive energy storage that has an architecture with short diffusion path lengths and large surface areas and a method for production are provided. Energy density is substantially increased without compromising the capacitive charge storage kinetics and electrode demonstrates long term cycling stability. Charge storage devices with electrodes using the construct can use three different charge storage mechanisms immersed in an electrolyte: (1) cations can be stored in a thin double layer at the electrode/electrolyte interface (non-faradaic mechanism); (2) cations can interact with the bulk of an electroactive material which then undergoes a redox reaction or phase change, as in conventional batteries (faradaic mechanism); or (3) cations can electrochemically adsorb onto the surface of a material through charge transfer processes (faradaic mechanism).
