Abstract: A magnetic clasp assembly includes a first member and a second member each couplable to an end of a bracelet. The first member may be readily secured or removed from the bracelet by actuating a first lever. Likewise, the second member may be readily secured or removed from the bracelet by actuating a second lever. The second member may be coupled to the first member via a second protrusion on the second member being inserted into a first receiving slot of the first member, and a first protrusion couplable to a second receiving slot of the second member. Magnets may be used to ensure the first and second member remain coupled. By actuating either the first or second lever, attachment and removal of slider charms and other ornamental accessories from the bracelet is facilitated. Such slider charms may feature designs representing a user's life achievements and interests.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for training a machine learning model and classifying encoded data include an exemplary method that includes: receiving first training data, by a variational autoencoder (VAE) comprising a probabilistic encoder and a probabilistic decoder; and encoding the first training data, by the probabilistic encoder, to generate encoded data in an embedding space; decoding the encoded data, by the probabilistic decoder, to generate decoded data; computing a loss function, comprising a hinge-loss term, based on the decoded data and the encoded data; and adjusting one or more parameters of the VAE based on the computed loss function including the hinge-loss term. The exemplary method may include classifying, by a linear support vector machine (SVM), the encoded data in the embedding space wherein classifying comprises determining the hyperplane in the embedding space separating the first class of the encoded data from the second class of the encoded data.

Abstract: An intelligent peer-to-peer fundraising campaign platform is provided for managing charitable and for profit campaigns. The platform includes capabilities for creating and managing campaigns by supporters, retrieving person data for supporters and leads for the campaign, relationship data and other attributes including affinity data, donation history data, potential and financial data and storing such data in the form of social graph. The campaign platform also helps supporters of a campaign to identify leads, send personalized communication to the leads for enlisting support to the campaign, determine donor outcomes with respect to each personalized communication sent to the lead; and updating or reinforcing a donor prediction model based on the donor outcome.

Abstract: A sanitation system includes a casing member having a top opening and a closed bottom and sidewalls that extend from the top opening to the closed bottom to form an interior compartment. The interior compartment is configured to receive a plunging instrument. The sanitation system may further include a container that holds the plunging instrument and the casing member. The container includes a vertical extension that extends vertically upward from the bottom of the container to be inserted within a bottom portion of the casing member and a cavity of the plunging instrument. Free ends of the casing member extend radially outward from the bottom of the container.
