Title: Force-limiting and damping device
Inventor: SHIH JUI-YUAN
IPC: B25D1/12
Filed: 2016-10-27
Abstract: A force-limiting and damping device has a body (10), a tapping element (20), and an elastic element (30). The body (10) has a connecting segment (11) and a holding segment (12). The connecting segment (11) has a mounting hole (111). The holding segment (12) is formed on the body (10) opposite the connecting segment (11). The tapping element (20) is connected to the body (10) to move relative to the connecting segment (11). The elastic element (30) is mounted between the tapping element (20) and the connecting segment (11) to abut against the tapping element (20). The structural relationship between the connecting segment (11), the tapping element (20), and the elastic element (30) may provide a delayed rebound and damping effect to the reaction force, and the applied force is continuously transferred to a tapping object to reduce noise and the loss of energy.

Abstract: A threaded joint has a solid coating (30) formed on a surface of a male threaded portion (11) thereof, the solid coating having fluidity during application and being cured after the application. In a made-up state, clearances are provided between flat crests (12) of the male threaded portion (11) and flat roots of a female threaded portion which face each other. The crests (12) of the male threaded portion (11) have a helical groove (40) previously formed therein, the helical groove having a lead angle equal to the lead angle of the threads. The groove (40) has a maximum depth of at least 30 µm, the depth being at most one-fifth of a height of the threads. In this threaded joint, the occurrences of galling and an abnormal make-up torque can be prevented during make-up without compromising the strength properties of the threaded joint.

Abstract: The present invention provides the means for producing libraries of peptide structures for drug screening applications that are capable of folding or assuming their native conformations independently of artificial scaffolds or flanking sequences in the proteins from which they are derived. The libraries can be highly diverse such that they are representative of the repertoire of protein structures existing in nature. The libraries can also be non-redundant or normalized such that the bias towards specific structures existing in source data sets and/or in nature is/are removed. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the present invention provides 30,000 independent fold structures produced by this method.  The present invention also provides computer -readable media and systems comprising structural data in relation to the peptide libraries, and methods for displaying and screening the libraries.

Title: Optimizing neural networks for risk assessment
Inventor: TURNER MATTHEW
IPC: G06N3/04
Filed: 2016-03-25
Abstract: Certain embodiments involve generating or optimizing a neural network for risk assessment. The neural network can be generated using a relationship between various predictor variables and an outcome (e.g., a condition's presence or absence). The neural network can be used to determine a relationship between each of the predictor variables and a risk indicator. The neural network can be optimized by iteratively adjusting the neural network such that a monotonic relationship exists between each of the predictor variables and the risk indicator. The optimized neural network can be used both for accurately determining risk indicators using predictor variables and determining adverse action codes for the predictor variables, which indicate an effect or an amount of impact that a given predictor variable has on the risk indicator. The neural network can be used to generate adverse action codes upon which consumer behavior can be modified to improve the risk indicator score.
