  • Publication number: 20240312154
    Abstract: An Tangible User Interface (TUI) authoring system is disclosed that allows end-users to customize edges on daily objects as TUI inputs to control varied digital functions. The TUI application authoring system incorporates an integrated AR-device and an integrated vision-based detection pipeline that can track 3D edges and detect the touch interaction between fingers and edges. Leveraging the spatial-awareness of AR, users can simply select an edge by sliding fingers along it and then make the edge interactive by connecting it to various digital functions. The system is demonstrated using four exemplary use cases including multi-function controllers, smart homes, games, and TUI-based tutorials.

  • Publication number: 20240257907
    Abstract: Systems and methods improving a target property of a target protein are provided. Each single point mutation in a first plurality of single point mutations of the target protein is obtained, each defining a corresponding single point substituted protein with respect to a reference sequence. A set of values for a set of properties of each point substituted protein is used to filter the first plurality of single point mutations into a reduced second plurality of single point mutations. The second plurality of mutations informs the selection of combinatorially substituted proteins and the target property is measured for each of them. The combinatorially substituted proteins and their measured values serve to train a surrogate model that, in turn, serves to update a search model. The updated search mode informs on which of the second plurality point mutations are to be used in future mutants of the target protein.
