Patent number: 12606669Abstract: A biodegradable polymer usable in fishing gear and that biodegrades in aquatic environments. The polymer includes a polymer backbone that has monomeric units that are susceptible to hydrolytic degradation, and a plurality of pH responsive moieties. Each pH responsive moiety is grafted to a respective one of the monomeric units. The pH responsive moieties are relatively hydrophilic when exposed to an aqueous solution of a pro-biodegradation pH range to facilitate hydrolytic degradation of the monomeric units, and are relatively hydrophobic when removed from the aqueous solution of the pro-biodegradation pH range, to protect the monomeric units from hydrolytic degradation.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2020Date of Patent: April 21, 2026Assignee: PLANTEE BIOPLASTICS INC.Inventors: Praphulla, Prashant Agrawal, Richard Chen

Publication number: 20260094072Abstract: A method and system for mitigating predictive multiplicity in a gradient boosting model (GBM). The method includes generating an empirical parameter set based on an approximation search resulting in a subset that includes candidates of at least one weak learner model (WLM) from a predetermined set of WLMs and training iteratively the empirical parameter set to derive a group filtered from the subset based on at least one from among a model selection (MS) technique and an intermediate ensembles (IE) technique. The method also includes selecting sequentially the at least one WLM from the derived group based on the at least one from among the MS technique and the IE technique; and generating the GBM based on a compilation of the sequentially selected at least one WLM, wherein the generated GBM operates below a minimum predefined disagreement threshold related to assessing predictive multiplicity, thereby mitigating the predictive multiplicity.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2024Publication date: April 2, 2026Applicant: JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.Inventors: Ivan BRUGERE, Hsiang HSU, Shubham SHARMA, Freddy LECUE, Richard CHEN

Publication number: 20260073132Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting human-generated text and machine-generated text in mixed text are disclosed. A computer program receives a dataset of human-generated text and generates a synthetic mixed text dataset by randomly replacing portions of the human-generated text with machine-generated text. The program evaluates the synthetic mixed text dataset at multiple levels, each representing a different fraction of machine-generated text, and computes a first text discriminator score for each level. Upon receiving a text sample, the program computes a second text discriminator score, fits a kernel density estimate using a Gaussian kernel to model a conditional probability distribution, samples from a posterior distribution, and returns an interval representing the amount of machine-generated text in the sample.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2024Publication date: March 12, 2026Inventors: Eric LEI, Hsiang HSU, Richard CHEN

Publication number: 20250270653Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for personalized genetic testing of disease in a subject, in particular for identifying and tracking genetic mutations identified in an individual subject to monitor for cancer or for the spread or recurrence of the disease. In some embodiments, custom assays, including custom panels designed to target sequence data corresponding to both subject-specific loci and other loci known for cancer-causing or therapy resistance mutations, are designed based upon the sequencing of a screening biopsy sample. Such custom assays are then run on subsequently obtained tissue samples, such as tissue obtained from a surgical resection of a primary or metastatic tumor or from a lymph node biopsy. The subsequently obtained tissue samples can be taken from the subject at various time points after an initial screening biopsy to further allow for extended monitoring of the subject for spread or recurrence of the disease.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2025Publication date: August 28, 2025Inventors: John WEST, Laurie GOODMAN, Richard CHEN
