Abstract: The present invention relates to a vaccine for protecting a pig against diseases associated with corona virus infection including porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and/or porcine deltacorona virus (PDCoV). The vaccine commonly includes inactivated/killed PEDV (e.g., chemically inactivated PED virus), and/or recombinant PEDV antigen, and/or an adjuvant inactivated/killed PDCoV (e.g., chemically inactivated PDCoV virus), and/or recombinant PDCoV antigen and an adjuvant. Methods for protecting pigs against diseases associated with PEDV and/or PDCoV and methods of producing the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus and/or porcine deltacorona virus vaccine are also provided.

Abstract: A recommender system and method to facilitate non-biasing search queries, social media feeds, and other platforms in which a user searches, scrolls, and engages with information and ideas so that a user can explore ideas outside of, or even contrary to, the ones with which they are aligned. Through a computer-implemented “curiosity halo” recommendation engine and method, users are made aware of the existence of other notions centered around or connected to a topic. The users could also engage to be directed to adjacent notions and “lines of flight” around the topic, thereby broadening their perspective and strengthening their ability to think “outside the box”—or bubble. By adjusting a threshold based on curiosity level and tolerance for divergent thinking, the boundaries of the curiosity halo are continually redrawn in real time so that users can dynamically uncover topics and ideas outside of their day-to-day experience.

Abstract: A card arranging device for arranging, in particular shuffling a set of cards, for example one or more decks of playing cards used in the game of Poker, Blackjack, Baccarat, Bridge or Skat by executing a card arranging procedure. The card arranging procedure includes repeatedly executing a position change procedure. In the position change procedure, a card is removed from the set of cards as change position card and re-inserted into the set of cards at a different position. The movement of the change position card for removing from the set of cards and reinsertion into the set of cards may be a movement along a primary lateral axis. Apart from shuffling, the card arranging device may be used for sorting the cards of a set of cards. An integrity checking device to determine if a set of cards is fit for being used.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of an immunogenic composition that comprises a porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) antigen for treatment of several clinical manifestations (diseases). Preferably, the clinical manifestations are associated with a PCV3 infection.
