Abstract: An accessory device includes multiple walls and textile layers covers the walls. The textile layers may be of the same materials. However, one of the textile layers may include a film that provides protections against stains and fraying. The textile layers may come together at a seam. Accessory devices may include a shell that includes a pocket used to seat the textile layers in order to form the seam. An additional seam may be formed by two ends of a textile layer. The additional seam may be supported by a reinforcement layer, and may also align with an opening formed in the accessory device.

Abstract: An autonomous agent operating method, system, and computer program product, including launching a first autonomous agent for a task with an initial update interval and adjusting the initial update interval for a second autonomous agent based on a second task for the second autonomous agent being similar to the task over time in relation to a trust level of a human user in a performance of the first autonomous agent.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for counterfactual conversation simulation is disclosed. The computer-implemented method includes generating a system output based, at least in part, on a user input. The computer-implemented method further includes determining that a system output/user input pair is not satisfactory based, at least in part, on a system output/user input score being below a predetermined threshold. The computer-implemented method further includes generating, in response to determining the system output/user input pair is not satisfactory, a counterfactual simulation of the user input based, at least in part, on a target intent of the user input.

Abstract: Anion exchange membranes and materials including silica-based ceramics, and associated methods, are provided. In some aspects, anion exchange membranes that include a silica-based ceramic that forms a coating on and/or within a porous support membrane are described. The anion exchange membranes and materials may have certain structural or chemical attributes (e.g., pore size/distribution, chemical functionalization) that, alone or in combination, can result in advantageous performance characteristics in any of a variety of applications for which selective transport of positively charged ions through membranes/materials is desired. In some embodiments, the silica-based ceramic contains relatively small pores (e.g., substantially spherical nanopores) that may contribute to some such advantageous properties. In some embodiments, the anion exchange membrane or material includes quaternary ammonium groups covalently bound to the silica-based ceramic.

Abstract: A system for displaying electronic content in one of multiple view modes using a web browser client application. Specifically, the web browser client application may present the electronic content in a first view mode in which the content displayed in a content pane that is configured to provide continuous scrolling of the content, and content tree content is displayed in a content tree pane. In response to a request to display the content of the page in a second view mode, the content is displayed in a full-screen pane that covers a substantial entirety of an available display area. The full-screen pane is configured to provide toggle-based navigation in which a user input automatically advances a display of the content to a respective topic portion identified within the content.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a document for displaying on a display of the client device. The method includes identifying a first portion and a second portion of the document having a first level of content hierarchy, and determining a first text corresponding to the first portion and a second text corresponding to the second portion of the document. The method includes generating a first outline entry including the first text and a second outline entry including the second text, and displaying a selectable entry point on a graphical user interface. The method includes, in response to a selection of the selectable entry point, displaying an outline window, including the first outline entry and the second outline entry, and navigating to the first portion of the received document or the second portion of the document in response to a selection of the first outline entry or the second outline entry.

Abstract: Systems and methods for model validation includes generating a first and a second time series of segmentation states for a data set representative of a simulated population, e.g., a collection of membership counts corresponding to respective segments of the simulated population. The first and second time series of segmentation states are generated by respectively processing the data set through a first and a second simulation each comprising iterative application of a plurality of event functions. The first and the second simulation differ in at least one capacity, e.g., one including a first event function configured with a first parameter, and the second not. Analysis of differences between the first and second time series may be compared to analysis of one of the time series using a subject model. The comparison is then used to validate the model or demonstrate accuracies, inaccuracies, and/or model bias with respect to a performance metric.
