Abstract: In one example, a device includes at least one processor and at least one module operable by the at least one processor to output, for display, a graphical user interface including a graphical keyboard and one or more text suggestion regions, and select, based at least in part on an indication of gesture input, at least one key of the graphical keyboard. The at least one module is further operable by the at least one processor to determine a plurality of candidate character strings, determine past interaction data that comprises a representation of a past user input corresponding to at least one candidate character string while the at least one candidate character string was previously displayed in at least one of the one or more text suggestion regions, and output the at least one candidate character string for display in one of the one or more text suggestion regions.

Abstract: In one example, a method includes outputting, by a computing device and for display, a graphical user interface including a plurality of text suggestion regions. The method further includes receiving, by the computing device, an indication of gesture input detected at a presence-sensitive input device, and selecting, based at least in part on the indication of the gesture input, a candidate character string from a plurality of candidate character strings. The method further includes determining that the candidate character string was previously selected while being displayed within a particular text suggestion region from the plurality of text suggestion regions, and outputting, for display and based at least in part on determining that the candidate character string was previously selected while being displayed within the particular text suggestion region, the candidate character string within the particular text suggestion region.

Abstract: Methods, associated products and apparatus are described for the production of biodegradable foam products using a controlled pressure increase due to compressed air and a controlled pressure decrease in pressure as key variables during a microwave heating cycle to produce a foamed product. The biodegradable product formed has improved characteristics including a density from 10 to 100 kg/m3; a soft and resilient structure; cushioning G-value characteristics to cushion an object with a fragility of 15 to 115; and a surface abrasion comparable to polystyrene.

Abstract: The method provided produces a bio-degradable foamed material with qualities of uniformity of mechanical and physical properties throughout the product including a foam thickness of up to one meter and a finished foam surface suitable for packaging applications. The parameters for producing such a product are selected from a range of variables which includes wall thickness, mold material, use of a susceptor and the type and composition of a susceptor, the number and arrangement of magnetrons and mold shape. Complex shapes produced by the process are also disclosed.

Abstract: This invention discloses a new form of wet precipitated silica which is characterised in terms of energy required to breakdown particles and a defined thickening effect. A multistage precipitation and flocculation production process is also disclosed in which primary silica particles are prepared and flocculated using an alkali metal salt solution and further silica precipitated in the presence of the salt, the pH of the mixture reduced and the silica isolated, purified carefully dried and optionally milled.
