  • Patent number: 12292941
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that identify and issue search queries expected to be issued in the future. A set of search queries that have been issued by multiple user devices can be obtained. For each query instance, contextual data can be obtained. A first query and its contextual data can be input to a model that outputs the query's likelihood of being issued in the future. The model can be trained using contextual data for training queries and a corresponding labels for the training queries. The learning model outputs the first query's likelihood of being issued in future, and this query is stored as a repeatable query if the likelihood satisfying a repeatability threshold. Subsequently, a stored repeatable query is issued upon a selection of a user selectable interface component and the search engine provides search results for the query.

  • Publication number: 20250124802
    Abstract: A mixed reality virtual environment is sharable among multiple users through the use of multiple view modes that are selectable by a presenter. Multiple users with wearable display systems may wish to view a common virtual object, which may be presented in a virtual room to any suitable number of users. A presentation may be controlled by a presenter using a presenter wearable system that leads multiple participants through information associated with the virtual object. Use of different viewing modes allows individual users to see different virtual content through their wearable display systems, despite being in a shared viewing space or alternatively, to see the same virtual content in different locations within a shared space.

  • Publication number: 20250112155
    Abstract: Hybrid bonded die stacks, related apparatuses, systems, and methods of fabrication are disclosed. One or both of an integrated circuit (IC) die hybrid bonding region and a base substrate hybrid bonding region are surrounded by a protective layer and hydrophobic structures on the protective layer. The protective layer is formed prior to pre-bond processing to protect the hybrid bonding region during plasma activation, clean test, high temperature processing, or the like. Immediately prior to bonding, the hydrophobic structures are selectively applied to the protective layer. The hybrid bonding regions are brought together with a liquid droplet therebetween, and capillary forces cause the IC die to self-align. A hybrid bond is formed by evaporating the droplet and a subsequent anneal. The hydrophobic structures contain the liquid droplet for alignment during bonding.

  • Publication number: 20250077695
    Abstract: A computing apparatus for protecting privacy within a messaging platform includes one or more processors and one or more computer-readable media having stored thereon executable instructions. The executable instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing apparatus to receive a user's attempt to access content shared within the messaging platform, determine whether or not privacy is set for protection within the messaging platform, and in a case where it is determined that the privacy is set for protection, disallow an access to the content and display a notification of protection of the content to a user. In a case where it is determined that the privacy is not set for protection, the computing apparatus is further caused to allow the user to access the content.

  • Patent number: 12242615
    Abstract: An adversarial reinforcement learning system is used to simulate a spatial environment. The system includes a simulation engine configured to simulate a spatial environment and various objects therein. The system further includes a first model configured to control objects in the simulation and a second model configured to control objects in the simulation. The first model generates a threat-mitigation input to control one or more objects in the simulation, and the second model generates a threat input to control one or more objects in the simulation. The system then executes a first portion of the simulation based at least in part of the threat mitigation input and the threat input.

  • Patent number: 12242545
    Abstract: A document management system can include an artificial intelligence-based document manager that can perform one or more predictive operations based on characteristics of a user, a document, a user account, or historical document activity. For instance, the document management system can apply a machine-learning model to determine how long an expiring agreement document is likely to take to renegotiate and can prompt a user to begin the renegotiation process in advance. The document management system can detect a change to language in a particular clause type and can prompt a user to update other documents that include the clause type to include the change. The document management system can determine a type of a document being worked on and can identify one or more actions that a corresponding user may want to take using a machine-learning model trained on similar documents and similar users.

  • Patent number: 12227535
    Abstract: The present invention relates to triterpene glycoside saponin-derived adjuvants, syntheses thereof, intermediates thereto, and uses thereof. QS-7 is a potent immuno-adjuvant that is significantly less toxic than QS-21, a related saponin that is currently the favored adjuvant in anticancer and antiviral vaccines. Tedious isolation and purification protocols have hindered the clinical development of QS-7. A novel semi-synthetic method is provided wherein a hydrolyzed prosapogenin mixture is used to synthesize QS-7, QS-21, and related analogs, greatly facilitating access to QS-7 and QS-21 analogs for preclinical and clinical evaluation.

  • Patent number: 12228781
    Abstract: A network access point enclosure is configured to house a splice tray that is configured to pivot to provide increased access to opposite sides of the splice tray during assembly. The enclosure includes a base, a cover configured to be sealingly coupled with the base to form a housing, and a splice tray configured to be pivotally coupled with the base. The splice tray is configured to be pivoted between a first orientation relative to the base and a second orientation relative to the base. The splice tray is configured to form a larger angle relative to the base in the first orientation than in the second orientation, and the splice tray is configured to provide increased access to a front side of the splice tray and a rear side of the splice tray in the first orientation than in the second orientation.
