Abstract: In a cartridge device for analyzing a body liquid, a first member of the cartridge has two or more wells for performing assays, and a second member of the cartridge has a compartment for holding one or more disposable pipette tips.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for managing a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model to improve performance. Managing the generative AI model includes using a second generative AI model to generate outputs from similar inputs and comparing the outputs of the generative AI models to determine their similarity. The second generative AI model is trained using fresher training data but may not be manually supervised and adjusted to the level of the generative AI model being managed. As such, an output of the second generative AI model is compared to an output of the managed generative AI model by a classification model to determine a relevance of the output from the managed generative AI model. An output of the classification model is used to perform various suitable policies to optimize the performance of the managed generative AI model, such as providing alternate outputs, preventing providing the output, or retraining the model.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for controlling illumination in a greenhouse, comprising obtaining a geometric model of a greenhouse comprising a grow space segmented to a plurality of grow sections each associated with a respective one of a plurality of dimmable lamps having an illumination area overlapping the respective grow section, computing a shade model for the greenhouse based on the geometric model, the shade model defines, for each of the plurality of grow sections, a respective shading pattern indicative of a level of direct sun light in the respective grow section, enhancing the shade model using one or more machine learning models trained to predict the level of direct sun light in each grow section, and operating one or more of the plurality of dimmable lamps based on the enhanced shade model to illuminate its associated grow section according to one or more illumination rules.

Abstract: A personal protective shield, which comprises a central panel; at least two lateral panels; and hinged connections between the central panel and the lateral panels. The protective shield has a folded configuration for carrying it and for attaching to it other equipment, in which the afore the lateral panels are folded against the the central panel, and an expanded configuration for carrying out its protective function, in which the afore the lateral panels are angularly set off from the central panel. The central panel and the lateral panels are made of bulletproof plate materials. The central panel may have a curved configuration adapted to fit the back of the user, and the lateral panels may have curved configurations matching that of the central panel.
