Abstract: A crop prediction system performs various machine learning operations to predict crop production and to identify a set of farming operations that, if performed, optimize crop production. The crop prediction system uses crop prediction models trained using various machine learning operations based on geographic and agronomic information. Responsive to receiving a request from a grower, the crop prediction system can access information representation of a portion of land corresponding to the request, such as the location of the land and corresponding weather conditions and soil composition. The crop prediction system applies one or more crop prediction models to the access information to predict a crop production and identify an optimized set of farming operations for the grower to perform.

Abstract: Content is organized for brands by selecting a plurality of brand templates. After each selection, a set of properties is generated by applying a portion of settings of the respective brand template, with the remaining settings being overridden with settings for a channel communicating one of a plurality of presentations to a node of a network involved in the communication. The plurality of presentations may include different renditions of the same content. The properties may include sections configured for different focus areas and/or types of content associated with at tags to enable brand-level-targeting. Filters may be identified in the properties. Based on each of the identifications, a property from among the generated sets of properties may be selected based on comparisons with the associated tags.

Abstract: A multi-fiber cable assembly includes a pigtail segments spliced to a trunk segment using multiple mass fusion splices. The splices are disposed within an encapsulation at a common axial location. A flexible conduit extends from one end of the encapsulation to protect bare fibers of the trunk segment. A protective sheath extends from the opposite end of the encapsulation to protect the pigtail segments. The conduit and sheath are axially fixed to the encapsulation.

Abstract: Techniques for a privacy-based user data sharing protocol disclose a system that receives a request to consent to share user data with a subscriber device. The system identifies, based on the request, a smart contract associated with the subscriber device. The smart contract comprises one or more conditions for collecting and managing the user data. The system generates a token based on the smart contract, in which the token indicates consent by a user to share the user data with the subscriber device according to the one or more conditions. The system records the generated token to a blockchain.

Abstract: Systems and methods for testing printed circuit boards (PCBs) are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a tester for printed circuit boards (PCBs) includes a test fixture having a plurality of electrical contacts for contacting the PCBs that are units under test (UUTs). The test fixture carries a remote test peripheral master (RTPM) module, and a remote test peripheral slave (RTPS) module. The RTPM module and the RTPS module are connected through a remote test peripheral (RTP) bus.

Abstract: A drivetrain assembly for a motor vehicle including a venting system. The drivetrain assembly includes an output shaft from a vehicle prime moreover component such as a transmission or transaxle. The output shaft is coupled to a propeller shaft through a constant velocity joint (CVJ) assembly. A flexible sealing boot encloses the CVJ between the output shaft and the propeller shaft. Internal components of the CVJ are vented by a first longitudinal passageway exposed to the internal volume of the CVJ extending longitudinally along the output shaft. A second radial passageway joins the longitudinal passageway and extends to the radially outer surface of the output shaft forming a second aperture. The passageways combine to provide pressure equalization between the CVJ internal volume and the atmosphere. An optional semi-permeable membrane may be mounted at the second aperture.

Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products to facilitate approximating a range of sideband frequencies efficiently are provided. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a processor that executes computer executable components stored in memory. The computer executable components comprise a wave division component that generates a plurality of waveform snippets using a definition of an intended waveform, wherein the plurality of waveform snippets can be phase shifted. The computer executable components further comprise rotation component that assigns a phase rotation to be applied to at least one waveform snippet of the plurality of waveform snippets, wherein the phase rotation is out of phase with a previous waveform snippet of the plurality of waveform snippets.

Abstract: The embodiments provide a system and method for continuously updating a target repository to include both the latest data and corrected historical data. The system includes a data manager and at least two staging repositories. Each time the system retrieves the latest data from the source repository it also retrieves a portion historical data. Both the latest data and the historical data are transformed, and the historical portion of the transformed data is compared with corresponding data from the target repository to determine if there are any defects in the data from the target repository. The target repository is automatically updated if a defect is detected.
