  • Patent number: 11820995
    Abstract: A method for creating a new germplasm of a male sterile crop by gene editing and an application thereof are provided. In this method, the gene editing is performed on an exon region of a Ty-5 gene, and a deletion of DNA sequence is introduced by using a repair mechanism of plants themselves to double-strand breaks (DSBs), causing a loss of function of Ty-5 gene, thereby obtaining a male-sterile character. The method can be applied without being limited by crop categories. After the gene editing is performed on Ty-5 genes of various crops, new germplasms can be quickly obtained. The new germplasms have the same agronomic characters as the previous materials, and only differ in sexual aspect, which effectively solves the problem of the lack of male sterile materials and unstable fertility in natural resources.

  • Patent number: 11791272
    Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) package including ICs with multi-row columnar die interconnects has increased die-to-die (D2D) interconnect density in a conductive layer. Positioning the die interconnects in die interconnect column clusters, that each include a plurality of die interconnect rows and two columns, reduces the linear dimension occupied by the die interconnects and leaves room for more D2D interconnects. A die interconnect column cluster pitch is a distance between columns of adjacent die interconnect column clusters and this distance is greater than a die interconnect pitch between columns within the column clusters. Die interconnects may be disposed in the space between the multi-row column clusters and additional die interconnects can be disposed at the D2D interconnect pitch between the die interconnect column clusters. IC packages with ICs including the multi-row columnar die interconnects have a greater number of D2D interconnects for better IC integration.

  • Publication number: 20220391767
    Abstract: System and methods for relational time-series learning are provided. Unlike traditional time series forecasting techniques, which assume either complete time series independence or complete dependence, the disclosed system and method allow time series forecasting that can be performed on multivariate time series represented as vertices in graphs with arbitrary structures and predicting a future classification for data items represented by one of nodes in the graph. The system and methods also utilize non-relational, relational, temporal data for classification, and allow using fast and parallel classification techniques with linear speedups. The system and methods are well-suited for processing data in a streaming or online setting and naturally handle training data with skewed or unbalanced class labels.

The vertices represent consumers and products and an edge represents an access relationship. The system may receive a query indicating an ego for determining a product recommendation. The system may then traverse the graph from a vertex representing the ego through a plurality of edges to a plurality of vertices representing products. The system may traverse the graph from the plurality of vertices representing products to a plurality of vertices representing other consumers. The system may then traverse the graph from the plurality of vertices representing other consumers to a plurality of vertices representing other products. The system may generate a recommendation that based on the plurality of vertices representing other products.
