Abstract: Disclosed herein include systems, methods, compositions, and kits for reducing non-specific noise-causing oligonucleotides in library preparations. Capture particles present in PCR reactions that are derived from partitions that did not contain a cell (e.g., noise capture particles) provide a significant source of non-specific nucleic acid and noise in single cell multiomics library preparations. In some embodiments of the methods provided herein, said noise capture particles are removed by a variety of approaches.

Abstract: Antibodies attached to oligonucleotides can bind to proteins of cells. These oligonucleotides can be released and captured by solid support oligonucleotides attached to solid supports. A detection oligonucleotide can hybridize to the captured oligonucleotides forming a sandwich of solid support oligonucleotide-captured oligonucleotide-detection oligonucleotide. The detection oligonucleotide and the captured oligonucleotides it binds to can be quantified by, for example, the fluorescent intensity of second detectable moieties (e.g., dye(s)) on the detection oligonucleotide. The identity of the protein quantified can be determined by, for example, the fluorescent intensity of first detectable moieties (e.g., dye(s)) on the solid support with the sandwich of solid support oligonucleotide-captured oligonucleotide-detection oligonucleotide.

Abstract: A container for cleaning an orthodontic appliance comprising a first component having a first set of bristles arranged in a first array and a second component having a second set of bristles arranged in a second array, the second set of bristles extending toward the first set of bristles when the container is in a closed condition. The first component is rotatable relative to the second component to clean the orthodontic appliance positioned within the container. The first component can be releasably lockingly engageable with the second component to clean the orthodontic appliance as the first and second sets of bristles frictionally engage the orthodontic appliance on opposite sides.

Abstract: Systems and methods for locating repeatable user-driven processes in recordings of users interacting with application programs. The processing, such as by a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) system, to locate repeatable user-driven processes can, for example, initially acquire various recordings of one or more users interacting with one or more application programs operating on one or more user devices. The recordings can include at least user-triggered events as well as a User Interface (UI) screen image captured for each of the user-triggered events. By processing the captured UI screens from the recordings, those of the screen images that are more likely (or predictably) used to start or stop a repeatable user-driven process can be selected. Thereafter, repeatable user-driven processes within the recordings can be identified based on the selected screen images. Advantageously, the repeatable user-driven processes found within the recordings can thereafter be converted into software robots.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is provided. The method includes obtaining a set of views of user interfaces for an application and a set of metadata associated with the set of views. The method also includes applying a set of strategies to a subset of the set of views of the user interfaces to generate a set of groupings of user interfaces. Each strategy of the set of strategies indicates one or more rules for identifying user interfaces. The method further includes determining whether a specified one of the groupings of the set of groupings is associated with a first user interface of the user interfaces. The method further includes in response to determining that the specified grouping is associated with the first user interface, generating an application strategy based on the set of strategies.

Abstract: Methods of producing a plurality of distinguishably fluorescently barcoded particle, e.g., cellular, bead, etc., samples, e.g., for use in the multiplex flow cytometric workflows, are provided. Aspects of the methods include: providing a plurality of particle, e.g., cellular, bead, etc., samples; and labeling different particle, e.g., cellular, bead, etc., samples of the plurality with unique fluorescent barcodes, wherein a given fluorescent barcode comprises one or more fluorescently labeled specific binding members that specifically bind to a particle marker. Also provided are compositions for practicing methods of the invention.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for authenticating a user account with a synchronized content management system are disclosed. A synchronized online content management system may receive a request from a client device to access content in the content management system via a web browser that is running on the client device. The system may identify that a client-side application for the content management system has been installed on the client device and that the client-side application is already logged into a user account with the content management system. The system can cause the web browser to open a local host connection to the client-side application such that the web browser may be able to obtain from the client application some user account identifying information for the user account. The system can then cause the web browser to log into the user account by using the user account identifying information.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a processor and a non-transitory memory. The processor is configured to receive pre-operative patient specific data. The pre-operative patient specific data is inputted to a first machine learning model to determine a first predicted post-operative joint performance data output including first predicted post-operative outcome metrics. A reconstruction plan of the joint of the patient is generated based on a medical image of the joint, and at least one arthroplasty surgical parameter obtained from the user. The at least one arthroplasty surgical parameter is inputted into a second machine learning model to determine a second predicted post-operative joint performance data output including second predicted post-operative outcome metrics.

Abstract: The invention concerns a compression garment for providing compression to a body part, in particular a limb, of a patient, comprising an, in particular tubular, padded sleeve extending around the body part and having an inner layer and an outer layer secured, in particular sewn, together to define at least one enclosure between them, and multiple particles, in particular plastic foam particles, received in the enclosure for being pressed against the body part.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to automated rack imaging. According to an example, a system for imaging a face of a rack includes a camera and lighting array, a positioning system, a computer system and a wheeled platform. The array includes multiple cameras located in a first plane orthogonal to a second plane and each camera has a first field of view in a first axis of the second plane. Collectively, the first fields of view extend from one end of the face to another end of the face. The positioning system is operable to move the array from a starting point to an ending point via multiple intermediate points along an axis in a third plane parallel to the first plane. The computer system (i) causes the cameras to capture images at the starting, intermediate, and ending point; (ii) stitches the captured images together; and (iii) stores the resulting image.

Abstract: In one aspect, a control plane Interworking Function (IWF-C) is used to establish a Packet Data Unit (PDU) session in a data communications network. A create session request is received, for example from a Mobile Management Entity (MME). A create session management context request is generated by the IWF-C and transmitted to a Session Management Function (SMF). A create session management context request response is received from the SMF. A create session request response is generated by the IWF-C and sent, for example to the MME. In other aspects, control plane policy interworking and user plane interworking is provided between components of 4G and 5G networks.
