The present invention relates to an article fabrication system having a plurality of material deposition tools containing one or more materials useful in fabricating the article, and a material deposition device having a tool interface for receiving one of the material deposition tools. A system controller is operably connected to the material deposition device to control operation of the material deposition device. Also disclosed is a method of fabricating an article using the system of the invention and a method of fabricating a living three-dimensional structure.

Modular fabrication systems and methods

An apparatus includes a first laser, a second laser, and a controller. The first and second lasers output different wavelengths of light. The controller controls the first and second lasers so as to cook food.

Method and systems for laser-based cooking

Provided is an additive manufacturing process that uses an upward-pointing illumination source, such as a laser, projected through a substrate so as to solidify particulate matter supported by the substrate. The process is then repeated to build a hanging part layer by layer, for example by replenishing particulate matter on the substrate, or by moving the part a second substrate that supports other particulate matter. The disclosed process eliminates the need for a large powder bed and also allows for sintering of different powders in a single layer so as to give rise to parts that include layers that are themselves made from multiple materials. Also provided are related methods, include methods of incorporated cured resins into parts made by fusing particulate matter.

Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for determining causality among data. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a first data and a second data associated with a first event and a second event, respectively; and determining a data set including quantitative causality dependence values between the first and the second data.

Causality network construction techniques

Disclosed are devices, systems, apparatus, methods, products, and other implementations, including a method to detect pattern characteristics in target specimens that includes acquiring sensor data for the target specimens, dividing the acquired sensor data into a plurality of data segments, and generating, by multiple neural networks that each receives the plurality of data segments, multiple respective output matrices, with each data element of the multiple respective output matrices being representative of a probability that corresponding sensor data of a respective one of the plurality of data segments includes a pattern characteristic in the target specimens. The method further includes determining by another neural network, based on the multiple respective output matrices generated by the multiple neural networks, a presence of the pattern characteristic in the target specimens.

Methods and systems for pattern characteristic detection

Disclosed are devices, systems, apparatuses, methods, products, and other implementations of vapor pressure solids. In some embodiments, a vapor pressure solid may include a one- or multi-component matrix material. In some embodiments, the multi-components matrix material is a two-part PDMS comprising a first and second matrix material. The first matrix material is capable of being mixed with one or more vaporizable fluids that causes the first matrix material to swell. The second matrix material is capable of being mixed with the swelled first matrix material to produce an actuating material. When the actuating material is heated, the one or more vaporizable fluids expand, resulting in vapors. The increased pressure applied by the vapors causes the actuating material to expand.

Natural language learning in context is provided by generating combined text of a user's native tongue and language to be learned. The combined text is generated based on elements of code-switching including syntax and semantics. Combining text based on elements of code-switching maximizes the learnability or the likelihood of retaining certain text of a foreign language.

Computer system methods for generating combined language content

A hybrid additive manufacturing approach that incorporates three-dimensional (3D) printing and placement of modules selected from a library of modules to fabricate an electromechanical assembly. By virtue of fabrication of the electromechanical assembly, mechanical properties and electrical properties of the assembly are created. The invention overcomes the material and process limitations of current printable electronics approaches, enabling complete, complex electromechanical assemblies to be fabricated.

Data processing including a universal metric to quantify and estimate the similarity and dissimilarity between data sets. Data streams are perfectly annihilated by a correct realization of their anti-streams. Any deviation of the collision product from a baseline, for example flat white noise, quantifies statistical dissimilarity. The invention relates generally to data mining. More specifically, the invention relates to the analysis of data using a universal metric to quantify and estimate the similarity and dissimilarity between sets of data.

System and methods for analysis of data

Technologies are provided herein for processing edible materials using tools associated with a fabrication system. In one aspect, a fabricator includes a control module and a drive assembly controlled by the control module. The fabricator also includes at least one food processing tool head coupled to the drive assembly that can process material for fabricating an edible structure on a build surface.

Deposition of materials for edible solid freeform fabrication

Technologies are provided herein for a modular deposition tool design that allows for both, the fast interchanging of materials and for easy cleaning of all wetted surfaces. A drive assembly for use in a solid freeform fabrication system, includes a drive module having a drive mechanism and a detachable material bay assembly that is detachable from the drive module. The material bay assembly includes a material bay holder, a material deposition tool, and a corresponding material bay actuation mechanism that can engage with the drive mechanism of the drive module when the material bay assembly is coupled to the drive module such that when the drive mechanism of the drive module is actuated, the material bay actuation mechanism is actuated, which causes the material deposition tool to deposit material from a material bay inserted in the material bay holder.
