  • Publication number: 20220405406
    Abstract: A method of dynamically sampling application events includes receiving usage data for a plurality of applications on client devices. The usage data includes data for instances of events that occur in the plurality of applications in response to users interacting with the plurality of applications on the client devices. The method further includes storing the usage data in a first data store, determining, for respective applications of the plurality of applications, sampling rates for respective application events of the plurality of application events based at least in part on respective quantities of instances of the respective application events during a period of time, sampling from the first data store the data for the instances of the respective application events at the sampling rates to form respective sets of usage data, and providing a report using one or more sets of the sets of usage data.

  • Publication number: 20210062135
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method for studying protein folding in the native cellular environment is provided. The invention, termed pcIC-FPOP, combines pulse-chase experiments with in-cell protein footprinting coupled to mass spectrometry. This enables very high resolution information on the folding or mis-folding of proteins. The system (100) includes a multi-well plate (110), an incubator (120), a stage (130), a subsystem of reservoirs (172) and pumps (174), a laser source (140) and beam steering optics (150), and a computer system (160) programmed with a control module (162) to control the operation of the laser (140), optics (150), incubator (120), stage (130), or pumps (174), or some combination. This method permits studies that fill gaps in knowledge on protein folding and its role in disease.

  • Publication number: 20190065607
    Abstract: An application analytics generation system employs data stored in a social networking system's social graph to automatically predict outcomes based on various observed attributes, and transmit these predictions to a social networking system's user interface, e.g., in a newsfeed, for an advertiser or application developer. These predictions correlate various attributes and/or actions to outcomes, e.g., in relation to advertisements or applications.

  • Publication number: 20180121461
    Abstract: An exemplary method to deduplicate redundant usage data for an application includes receiving, from a first source, a first set of usage data for an application. The method further includes receiving, from a second source, a second set of usage data for the application. The method further includes comparing data of the first set of usage data with data of the second set of usage data. In accordance with a determination that a degree of similarity between the first set of usage data and the second set of usage data satisfies a threshold, the method further includes providing a report regarding the application based on the first set of usage data.
