  • Publication number: 20230409898
    Abstract: A system may include a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor may be configured to perform operations. The operations may include training a neural network and predicting structural feature sets with the neural network. The operations may include producing predicted structures with the neural network using the structural feature sets, converting the predicted structures into predicted graphs with predicted edges, and comparing predicted graphs to training graphs and predicted edges to training edges to obtain a comparison. The operations may include training a model with the comparison, constructing a graph with the neural network using a node feature set, and reducing missing edges in the graph with the model.

  • Patent number: 11440738
    Abstract: A contact protection structure can be positioned on a belt body to prevent a pinching gap, where the belt body presents a conveyor belt deflected by a roller, and where a roller holder supporting the roller and attachable to the belt body also supports the contact protection structure.

  • Patent number: 11440747
    Abstract: A belt conveyor is configured for conveying products in a conveying direction and defines a width extending in a transverse direction orthogonal to the conveying direction, and a height direction orthogonal to the conveying and transverse directions. An ejector is fixed to the belt conveyor and acts in the transverse direction for sorting out/discharging products. The ejector has an end region which faces the product to be sorted out, and has a base body mounted in a base position on the belt conveyor by means of a holder. The basic position of the base body can be adjusted by means of an adjusting device of the holder in the transverse direction within an adjustment path so that the end area of the non-actuated ejector in the transverse direction can protrude across the belt conveyor width by at least half of that width, or more.

  • Publication number: 20210098074
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for designing one or more folded structural proteins from at least one raw amino acid sequence is provided. The present invention may include computing one or more character embeddings based on the at least one raw amino acid sequence by utilizing a multi-scale neighborhood-based neural network (MNNN) model. The present invention may then include refining the computed one or more character embeddings with at least one set of sequence neighborhood information. The present invention may further include predicting one or more dihedral angles based on the refined one or more character embeddings.

  • Patent number: 9790118
    Abstract: A valve assembly (1) which is intended for differentiated individual control of the movement mechanisms of an IS machine and can therefore be used in a modular manner consists of a valve support (2?) and a head part (22) which supports two pilot control valves (3, 5), two safety valves (4, 6) and two switching valves as one assembly. By way of actuation of the safety valves (4, 6), the feed of control air to the switching valves can be interrupted, which switching valves are assigned, for example, to the opening movement and the closing movement, respectively, of a closing cylinder which is assigned to a preform. The valve assembly has interfaces for connection of control and operating air and for electric connection to a machine controller. If required, the assembly which is designed in this way makes it possible to interrupt the control air in a differentiated way which is related to an individual track, in addition to simple assembly and dismantling.
