Abstract: Dynamic timers are determined using machine learning. The timers are used to control the amount of time that new data transaction requests wait before being processed by a data transaction processing system. The timers are adjusted based on changing conditions within the data transaction processing system. The dynamic timers may be determined using machine learning inference based on feature values calculated as a result of the changing conditions.

Abstract: Devices and methods for bending or cutting implants are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, an instrument can include a rotatable drive shaft that urges first and second portions of a modular bending or cutting template toward one another to bend or cut an implant disposed between the template portions. A linkage assembly can be included to provide a mechanical advantage in urging the template portions toward one another. In some embodiments, an instrument can include a rotatable drive shaft that, depending on direction of rotation, pushes or pulls a first modular template portion with respect to a second modular template portion to bend an implant disposed between the template portions in one direction or another direction. In some embodiments, an instrument can include a worm drive that rotates a cutting wheel with respect to a cutting plate to cut an implant inserted through openings formed in the cutting wheel and the cutting plate.

Abstract: A device that includes a microphone may be worn in or on an ear of a user. A microphone signal generated by the microphone may be processed to determine a heart activity of a user. An indication of a heart pathology may be detected by applying a predictive algorithm to at least the heart activity. Other aspects are described.

Abstract: A chassis mounted energy extraction and delivery system. In one embodiment, a gravity-referenced, external tire inflation facility is integrated into an aerodynamic fairing mounted on the chassis of a vehicle. In one other embodiment, a torsion bar coupled between a hub-mounted energy extraction or delivery facility and a selected portion of the chassis provides a cross-referenced fixed point of reference. In a dual-axle embodiment, a first end of the torsion bar is coupled to the hub of one axle and a second end of the torsion bar is coupled to the hub of the other axle. In a single-axle embodiment, the second end of the torsion bar is coupled to the chassis.

Abstract: A computer system is provided that is programmed to select feature sets from a large number of features. Features for a set are selected based on metagradient information returned from a machine learning process that has been performed on an earlier selected feature set. The process can iterate until a selected feature set converges or otherwise meets or exceeds a given threshold.

Abstract: Techniques are described for a social networking system to provide community profiles that allow for multiple holders, editors, and/or managers. In some cases, the social networking system may be configured to distribute content associated with the community profiles based on metrics and relationships associated with accounts of the collaborators to the community profile as well as the community profile itself.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments may deploy a valve that introduces a sample of a calibrant coaxially with flow exiting a source of a mobile phase flow, such as a liquid chromatography (LC) column, on a path to an ion source for the mass spectrometer (MS). The valve may be positioned remotely on a branch that has a junction with the path leading form the source of the mobile phase flow to the ion source. Alternatively, the valve may be positioned in line on the flow path from the source of the mobile phase flow to the ion source of the MS. A novel five port valve design may be employed. With this valve design, a first position of the valve allows a sample loop for the calibrant to be filled. In a second position, the calibrant is added coaxially to the flow from the source of the mobile phase to the MS. In a third position of the valve, diversion of or infusion to a post-source flow is enabled.
