Abstract: Photon generating substrates for light-directed oligonucleotide synthesis are disclosed. Light is generated within a solid-state stack that supports growing oligonucleotides. The light may be generated by microLEDs, a pass-through liquid crystal panel, or an LCoS system. Light passes through a transmissive layer on which growing oligonucleotides are attached. Patterning of the light is controlled by selective activation of the microLEDs or by selective control of the transparency of a liquid crystal layer. Photolabile blocking groups are selectively removed by exposure to patterned light emitted from the photon generating substrate.

Abstract: A device may receive a downlink signal from a base station and may construct a frozen decode matrix for decoding frozen bits from data of the downlink signal. The device may construct a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) generator matrix for a component of scrambling sequence seed bits and may multiply the frozen decode matrix and the LFSR generator matrix to generate a mapping matrix for mapping a value of a scrambling sequence initialization vector that initializes a scrambler to the frozen bits. The device may determine an inverse matrix of the mapping matrix and may multiply the inverse matrix and the frozen decode matrix to obtain a final matrix. The device may utilize the final matrix to recover, from the data of the downlink signal, the scrambling sequence seed bits used to initialize the component and may perform actions based on the scrambling sequence seed bits.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, devices, and computer program products are described. A flow generation service may receive a natural language input that indicates instructions for automating a task according to a first process flow. Using a large language model (LLM), the flow generation service may decompose the natural language input into a set of elements (e.g., logical actions) and connectors, where the LLM may be trained on first metadata corresponding to a second process flow that is created manually by a user. In addition, using the LLM, the flow generation service may generate second metadata corresponding to each of the set of elements based on decomposing the natural language input. The flow generation service may sequence and merge the set of elements to generate the first process flow. In some examples, the flow generation service may send, for display to a user interface of a user device, the first process flow.

Abstract: The disclosed technology addresses the need in the art to enable users to broadcast a status that indicates that a user is inviting others to join their livestream, such that they are either prepared to livestream or is livestreaming. An invite-to-join status may be limited to the specific friends and community members of the user's choosing.

Once a first viewer joins, then the user screen may be broadcasted into a livestream.

Abstract: Techniques for vector object blending are described to generate a transformed vector object based on a first vector object and a second vector object. A transformation module, for instance, receives a first vector object that includes a plurality of first paths and a second vector object that includes a plurality of second paths. The transformation module computes morphing costs based on a correspondence within candidate path pairs that include one of the first paths and one of the second paths. Based on the morphing costs, the transformation module generates a low-cost mapping of paths between the first paths and the second paths. To generate the transformed vector object, the transformation module adjusts one or more properties of at least one of the first paths based on the mapping, such as geometry, appearance, and z-order.
