  • Publication number: 20250077795
    Abstract: A computing system for monitoring language model compliance with a rubric of one or more output characteristics. The computing system includes processing circuitry configured to interface with a trained generative language model that receives input of a prompt including natural language text input and, in response, generates an output that includes natural language text output. The processing circuitry is further configured to monitor compliance of the generative language model with the rubric, by feeding the output of the generative language model to a rubric classifier configured to generate a predicted classification for an output characteristic in the rubric, and output the predicted classification.

  • Patent number: 12239333
    Abstract: Systems and methods for the intravascular treatment of clot material within a blood vessel of a human patient are disclosed herein. A method in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, engaging an interventional device of a catheter system with clot material in a blood vessel and withdrawing the interventional device and the portion of the clot material through a guide catheter. In some embodiments, the catheter system can include an attachment/valve member coupled to a proximal portion of the guide catheter, and the method can include unsealing the attachment/valve member to facilitate withdrawing the interventional device through the attachment/valve member without significant retention of clot material within the attachment/valve member. The method can further include resealing and aspirating the guide catheter before advancing another interventional device to the clot material to again engage and remove clot material from the blood vessel.

  • Publication number: 20250053586
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for improving the accuracy of embedding vector generation for domain-specific text for purposes of semantic search and generative AI. A dictionary of domain-specific terms can be built to include embedding vectors generated for respective domain-specific terms using a pre-trained large language model. A list of domain-specific terms pertaining to a particular domain can be identified and textual content comprising a description or a definition of a respective domain-specific term can be obtained. A domain-adapted embedding vector for each domain-specific term can be generated based on the textual content for that term. The domain-specific dictionary can be built to include a combination of a domain-specific term, a corresponding domain-adapted embedding vector and the domain-specific term definition or description.

  • Publication number: 20250051951
    Abstract: A method of plating substrates may include placing a substrate in a plating chamber comprising a liquid, and applying a current to the liquid in the plating chamber to deposit a metal on exposed portions of the substrate, where the current may include alternating cycles of a forward plating current and a reverse deplating current. To determine the current characteristics, a model of a substrate may be simulated during the plating process to generate data points that relate characteristics of the plating process and a pattern on the substrate to a range nonuniformity of material formed on the substrate during the plating process. Using information from the data points, values for the forward and reverse currents may be derived and provided to the plating chamber to execute the plating process.

  • Publication number: 20250055780
    Abstract: Described herein are technologies to enable farming equipment to connect and communicate with a remote computing system. The technologies can be hardware agnostic in that the technologies do not require special hardware adaptations and can operate with different types of hardware and software systems to overcome compatibility issues of such systems in farming equipment. In some embodiments, a hardware agnostic adapter is configured to connect or integrate with farming equipment and communicate with a remote computing system. Also, the technologies can convert source data (which, for example, describes hardware functions of equipment) into structured data and communicate the structured data to the remote system via a network configured to communicate the structured data but not necessarily configured to communicate the source data. The conversion can occur according to a provisioning configuration or a mapping configuration installed in or associated with the farming equipment.

  • Patent number: 12214250
    Abstract: A computing system for determining osteogenic loading from an exercise apparatus for performing an exercise is provided. The exercise apparatus includes a loading interface, a frame, a linear adjustment system interposing between and fixedly coupled to the loading interface and the frame, and a sensor coupled to the linear adjustment system. A position of the loading interface of the exercise apparatus is adjusted through a movement of the linear adjustment system at one or more intermediate positions of a plurality of functional positions of the loading interface. A force exerted by a subject on the loading interface at the position in the one or more intermediate positions is received. A measurement of the force exerted by the subject on the loading interface at the position in the one or more intermediate positions from the sensor is obtained. A corresponding osteogenic loading for the force exerted by the subject is determined.
