    Abstract: A deposition aid is provided, comprising a low molecular weight, low viscosity polysiloxane, combined with a crop oil concentrate or esterified seed oil concentrate. Combinations including the modified silicone can improve spreading and/or adhesion to foliage. Adding about 5% to about 20% of the modified silicone can provide more than a proportional increase in spreading and/or adhesion.

  • Patent number: 12480832
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting leaks in an enclosure having a port and intended to prevent liquid material from exchanging into or out of the enclosure. A vacuum pump is coupled to the port and the enclosure is subjected to an applied vacuum pressure. Measurements of the mass and pressure within the enclosure while subject to the applied vacuum pressure are compared to expected values to detect a leak. In some embodiments, the physical arrangement of a valve of the enclosure is measured and compared to expected values to detect a leak.

  • Patent number: 11841863
    Abstract: An algorithm releases answers to very large numbers of statistical queries, e.g., k-way marginals, subject to differential privacy. The algorithm answers queries on a private dataset using simple perturbation, and then attempts to find a synthetic dataset that most closely matches the noisy answers. The algorithm uses a continuous relaxation of the synthetic dataset domain which makes the projection loss differentiable, and allows the use of efficient machine learning optimization techniques and tooling. Rather than answering all queries up front, the algorithm makes judicious use of a privacy budget by iteratively and adaptively finding queries for which relaxed synthetic data has high error, and then repeating the projection. The algorithm is effective across a range of parameters and datasets, especially when a privacy budget is small or a query class is large.

  • Publication number: 20230366256
    Abstract: A door framing assembly comprises trim pieces for overlying a wall to conceal a rough opening. The trim pieces are held together using a plurality of brackets positioned along an axis of the trim pieces. The brackets hold the trim pieces in opposed, spaced apart relationship. The brackets have holes for securing to framing members defining the rough opening. A pocket is defined between the trim pieces for reception of a jamb. Flanges of the brackets are received in slots of the trim pieces, allowing pivoting of the trim pieces to fit tightly against the wall.

  • Publication number: 20220075960
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for personalizing a free-form communicative system. The free-from communicative system allows a service provider to autonomously communicate with a user. The free-form communicative system may use an adaptive communicative application and natural language adaptive components to interact with the user. The communicative system may be configured to receive an inbound message from the user and maintain a conversation with the user in their own natural language. The communicative system may assess the inbound message and generate labels, packages, and blueprint objects related to the input message. The communicative system may generate personalized sentences based on the respective labels, packages, and blueprint objects as well as message templates. In response to the input message, the communicative system sends the personalized sentences as an output message to the user, where the personalized sentences are commensurate to the conversation and natural language of the user.
