Title: Content management and provisioning system
Inventor: GREEN ROBERT D
IPC: H04N21/235
Filed: 2016-06-07
Abstract: Systems and methods for content and program type detection, including identification of true boundaries between content segments. A broadcast provider sends a broadcast as an encoded stream. During a switch between content types, an automation system sends identifying metadata indicative of an approximate boundary between content types. A mediacast generation system receives the encoded stream of content and metadata, processes the metadata, time corrects the metadata, and slices the content on the exact boundary where the content change occurs. The mediacast generation system decodes an audio stream directly into Waveform Audio File Format (WAVE) while using an envelope follower to measure amplitude. When the system detects a metadata marker, an analyzer may look inside a buffered time window. The WAVE data may be analyzed to look for a period most likely to be the true boundary or split point between content segments. The content may then be split up on the new true boundary.

Title: Automated mobile geotechnical mapping
Inventor: GALLANT MARC
IPC: G01C15/00
Filed: 2016-06-10
Abstract: Provided are apparatus and methods for generating a representation of a physical environment, comprising: a mobile sensor platform (MSP) including sensors that output sensor signals relating to parameters such as range, gravity, direction of the Earth's magnetic field, and angular velocity. The MSP is adapted to be moved through the environment. The sensor signals are processed and observations of axes in the environment are generated for a sequence of time steps, the orientation of the MSP is estimated for each of the time steps, observed axes are identified at each orientation, and similar axes are associated. The orientations, the axes in the environment, and the directions of gravity and the Earth's magnetic field are linked such that each observation is predicted based on the estimates of the orientations. An estimate of the orientations is optimized and an output of the representation of the physical environment is generated based on the optimized orientation estimates. The output may be an axis map, a visual representation, and/or a data set. In one embodiment the output device may produce an output comprising a stereonet.

Patent AU-2017204640-A1 (AU)
Title: Small-molecule hydrophobic tagging of fusion proteins and induced degradation of same
Inventor: CREWS CRAIG M
IPC: A61K31/7076
Filed: 2017-07-07
Abstract: Abstract The present invention relates to the ability to regulate any protein of interest in living systems with small molecules. In particular, the present invention relates to the discovery that appending a hydrophobic moiety to the surface of a protein can mimic the partially denatured state of the protein, thus engaging the cellular quality control machinery to induce its proteasomal degradation. An aspect of the present invention relates to bifunctional small molecules that bind a number of proteins, including, for example, a self-labeling tag such as bacterial dehalogenase (HaloTag protein) and present a hydrophobic group on its surface. Hydrophobic tagging of the HaloTag protein with a hydrophobic moiety (e.g. an adamantyl moiety) was effected and the tagging induced the degradation of cytosolic, isoprenylated, and transmembrane fusion proteins in cell culture. The present invention also demonstrated the in vivo utility of hydrophobic tagging by degrading proteins expressed in zebrafish embryos and by inhibiting RasG12V-driven tumor progression in mice. Therefore, hydrophobic tagging of HaloTag fusion proteins affords small molecule control over any protein of interest, making it an ideal system for validating potential drug targets in disease models.

Abstract: Indexing terminals enable rapid deployment of a distributed optical network. Each indexing terminal has a single-fiber port and a multi-fiber port. Distribution cables each have a first optical fiber that is optically coupled to the single-fiber port and other optical fibers that are optically coupled to the multi-fiber port of a respective one of the indexing terminals. Each indexing terminal shifts the fibers of the respective distribution cable over one indexed position between the two ends of the distribution cable. A connectorized end of the distribution cable is configured to be plugged into the multi-fiber port of another indexing terminal to enable daisy chaining of the indexing terminals. Multi-service terminals may be plugged into the single-fiber ports of the indexing terminals to provide additional splitting of optical signals before providing the optical signals to subscribers.

Title: Membrane compositions for estimating soil microbial load
Inventor: FITZPATRICK JUDITH
IPC: C12M1/02
Filed: 2017-08-01
Abstract: MEMBRANE COMPOSITIONS FOR ESTIMATING SOIL MICROBIAL LOAD Devices, methods, and kits for easy, accurate, and fast estimation of soil microbial load are provided. The devices include membranes that are rapidly wettable with aqueous fluids and retain soil microorganisms of up to 200 micrometers in size, without retaining soil pigments. The method requires reconstituting a soil sample in an extraction fluid so that the microorganisms in the soil sample are released from particles of the soil sample and into the extraction fluid. The method does not require a filtration step. The extraction fluid containing the microorganisms suspended therein is then pipetted onto the membrane device, or the membrane is dipped into the extraction fluid. The color appearing on the membrane is then compared to color intensity gray scale strips to determine the soil microbial load.
