Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for enhancing a machine-generated product image. One method includes an operation for receiving a request on a user interface (UI) to generate an image, where the request comprises a description of the image to be generated and identification of a product for inclusion in the image. The method further includes operations for generating, by a generative artificial intelligence (GAI) model, a first image based on the request, analyzing the first image to identify a presentation of the product in the first image, and selecting a product image from a database of product images based on the identification of the product. The method further includes replacing the presentation of the product in the first image with the selected product image to obtain a second image, and causing presentation in the UI of the second image.

Abstract: A system and method for determining position information for a device within a body of a subject. The device outputs and/or routes an acoustic signal with a frequency of no more than 20 kHz, which is received by at least a first sensor, positioned externally to the body of the subject. A processing system receives the received signal from the sensor, obtains a value for one or more parameters of the received signal and processes the value(s) to determine position information for the device.

Abstract: Genetic circuits that control transgene expression in response to pre-defined transcriptional cues would enable the development of smart therapeutics. The present disclosure relates to engineered programmable single-transcript RNA sensors in which adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) autocatalytically convert trigger hybridization into a translational output. This system amplifies the signal from editing by endogenous ADAR through a positive feedback loop. Amplification is mediated by the expression of a hyperactive, minimal ADAR variant and its recruitment to the edit site via an orthogonal RNA targeting mechanism. This topology confers high dynamic range, low background, minimal off-target effects, and a small genetic footprint. The circuits and systems disclosed herein leverage an ability to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms and modulate translation in response to endogenous transcript levels in mammalian cells.

Abstract: A computing device includes: a wireless communication interface; and a processor configured to: establish a connection with a wireless network; while a network-layer status of the connection is active, monitor attributes of the connection at the wireless communication interface, the attributes including (i) a number of uplink packets transmitted since a most recent downlink packet was received, and (ii) a time period elapsed since the most recent downlink packet was received; determine that the attributes meet recovery criteria indicative of a network-layer interruption in the wireless network; in response to the determination, control the wireless communication interface to initiate a recovery action to resolve the network-layer interruption.

Abstract: A process for the recovery of gold from carbon fines waste, which are produced, especially from carbon-in-leach (CIL) and carbon-in-pulp (CIP) processes. The gold may be eluted from carbon fines with alkaline eluent having a low oxidation reduction potential (ORP). Value added products may be obtained from the extracted carbon fines.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system, device, and method for the high throughput multiplexed detection of a wide number of compounds. The invention comprises of a microwell array coupled to a capture agent array to form a plurality of interfaces between a microwell and a set of immobilized capture agents. The set of capture agents comprises a plurality of distinguishable features, with each feature corresponding to the detection of a particular compound of interest. In certain embodiments, each microwell is configured to contain a single cell. The invention is therefore capable of performing a high throughput analysis of single cell profiles, including profiles of secreted compounds.

Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to a colorectal (CRC) cell atlas that provides methods of predicting outcomes of cancer patients and therapeutic targets for treating patients in need thereof. The atlas may be used to predict a response to immunotherapy, in particular checkpoint blockade therapy and adoptive cell transfer. Disclosed herein are previously unidentified gene programs in tumors that can be used to predict response and provide for therapeutic targets that can be used to shift a tumor to a responsive phenotype.

Abstract: Example systems and methods improve a location detection process. A system accesses image data and image metadata, whereby the image data captures images of a plurality of objects from different views, each image having corresponding image metadata. The system then detects each object in the plurality of objects in the image data. A plurality of rays in three-dimensional space is generated, whereby each ray of the plurality of rays is generated based on the detected objects and the corresponding image metadata. The system predicts object locations using the generated rays based on a probabilistic triangulation of the rays. The networked system updates map data using the predicted object locations. The updating includes adding objects at their predicted object locations to the map data. The map data is used to generate a map.
