20130173236 | SCORE FUSION BASED ON THE DISPLACED FORCE OF GRAVITY - Various embodiments provide systems, methods, and computer-program products for fusing at least two scores. In various embodiments, each of the scores predicts the probability of an outcome associated with a particular unit and an angle with respect to a horizon at which an object would rest at a point on a frictionless spherical surface is calculated based on the scores. The object comprises characteristics of the particular unit at said point on the spherical surface and the scores represent a downward force of gravity that would be exerted upon the object. In particular embodiments a displaced force is calculated based on the angle and the downward force of gravity interacting according to laws of physics. The displaced force is that which would need to be exerted upon the object to compel the object to move down the spherical surface and is used as a fused score. | 07-04-2013 |

20150079013 | WATER RESISTANT POLYMERS FOR PERSONAL CARE - Described are personal care compositions comprising a polymer comprising: (a) one or more polymer comprising, as polymerized units, (i) 75% to 35% by weight, based on the weight of said polymer, one or more (meth)acrylate monomer selected from at least one of C1-C4 (meth)acrylate, (meth)acrylic acid, styrene, or substituted styrene, and (ii) 25% to 65% by weight, based on the weight of said polymer, one or more hydrophobic monomer, including hydrophobically substituted (meth)acrylate monomers, with alkyl chain length from C8 to C22 and, (iii) optionally crosslinker, and, (b) at least one personal care active. Optionally, the polymer further includes a stage 2 polymer comprising, as polymerized units, (i) 10-99% of one or more monomer which has a Tg of more than 80° C. after polymer formation, (ii) 1-10% of one or more (meth)acrylate monomer containing acid functional group, and (iii) optionally, a crosslinker. | 03-19-2015 |
