    摘要: Described herein are systems and methods for profiling structured or semi-structured datasets. An example computer-implemented method includes grouping, using a machine learning classifier, a plurality of tables in a dataset that are associated with an object into a cluster, where each of the tables of the cluster includes respective data and respective metadata, the respective metadata including at least one respective attribute, generating a metadata-profile for the cluster, where the metadata-profile includes the at least one respective attribute of each of the tables of the cluster; and querying the cluster using the metadata-profile.

    摘要: Various implementations include solar thermal energy collection system comprising a solar energy concentrator, a heat transfer fluid, an absorber pipe. The absorber pipe includes a pipe wall and has a central longitudinal axis. The pipe wall has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface has a first contour defining alternating peaks and troughs along a length of the absorber pipe. The outer surface has a second contour defining alternating peaks and troughs along the length of the absorber pipe. The inner surface defines the entire flow path for the heat transfer fluid through the absorber pipe. The first contour, as viewed through an axial cross section of the absorber pipe, forms sinusoidal waves on each side of and spaced apart from the central longitudinal axis. The sinusoidal waves on each side of the central longitudinal axis are symmetrical with respect to the central longitudinal axis.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are methods for detecting virulent Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) strains O26, O103, O121, and O111 in a biological sample comprising the steps of: (i) enriching the bacterial concentration of the biological sample to result in an enriched sample; (ii) isolating DNA from said enriched biological sample; and (iii) detecting virulent strain in said isolated DNA sample via real-time PCR and a melt curve assay. Also disclosed are primers for said assay, as well as kits comprising said primers.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to drifters that float and take measurements at, or very near, a surface of a body of water. The drifters may have a design that reduces wind force effects but does not diminish Stokes drift force effects. The drifters may have two opposing exterior surfaces with antennas and sensors on each of the opposing surfaces so that the drifters may always utilize at least some of the antennas and sensors, regardless of the drifter's orientation in the water.

    摘要: Transmission of low energy light is one of the primary loss mechanisms of a single junction solar cell. Molecular photon upconversion via triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA-UC)—combining two or more low energy photons to generate a higher energy excited state—is an intriguing strategy to surpass this limit. The present disclosure is directed to self-assembled multilayers, e.g., bi- or trilayers, on metal oxide surfaces as a strategy to facilitate TTA-UC emission and demonstrate direct charge separation of the upconverted state. A three-fold enhancement in transient photocurrent is achieved at light intensities as low as two equivalent suns. The multilayer structure comprises a substrate comprising a metal oxide surface and a bulk region, and a self-assembled bilayer film, the bilayer film comprising: (a) an acceptor molecule covalently bonded to the metal oxide surface; (b) a linking metal ion bonded to the acceptor molecule; and (c) one or more sensitizer molecule(s) bonded to the linking coordinating metal ion.
