Abstract: In various embodiments, systems, methods, and techniques are disclosed for generating a collection of clusters of related data from a seed. Seeds may be generated based on seed generation strategies or rules. Clusters may be generated by, for example, retrieving a seed, adding the seed to a first cluster, retrieving a clustering strategy or rules, and adding related data and/or data entities to the cluster based on the clustering strategy. Various cluster scores may be generated based on attributes of data in a given cluster. Further, cluster metascores may be generated based on various cluster scores associated with a cluster. Clusters may be ranked based on cluster metascores. Various embodiments may enable an analyst to discover various insights related to data clusters, and may be applicable to various tasks including, for example, tax fraud detection, beaconing malware detection, malware user-agent detection, and/or activity trend detection, among various others.

Abstract: An acetabular cup removal device and method. The removal device can include a mounting ring attachable to an acetabular cup, a rotor rotatably coupled to the mounting ring and rotatable about a first axis, an arm pivotably coupled to the rotor and pivotable about a second axis orthogonal to the first axis, an oscillator assembly slidably disposed in a first slit of the arm, and a blade slidably disposed in a second slit of the arm. A rotation of the oscillator assembly causes an oscillation of the blade within the second slit. The removal method includes coupling the device to an acetabular cup, positioning the arm and blade at an initial location, oscillating the blade so as to perform a cut, repositioning the arm at a subsequent adjacent location, repeating the repositioning and oscillating steps until a 360° circumference is cut around the acetabular cup, and removing the acetabular cup.

Abstract: Rewarding a first classification of purchasers of digital media is provided. Such a classification may include initial purchasers (e.g., purchasers of new items) and secondary purchasers (e.g., purchasers of previously used items). A digital medium is played on a digital device and a notification is sent to a server. The server identifies the user of the digital device based on a unique device identifier associated with the digital device and a stored association of that digital device with the user. The user is determined to belong to the first classification of purchasers of the digital medium based on a unique identifier associated with the digital medium. The user, belonging to the first classification of purchasers, is provided with access to a reward that is not generally accessible to users belonging to a second classification. Users that are identified as belonging to the second classification may be offered a chance to upgrade their classification and access the reward.

The spine includes a column and a plurality of transverse ribs. The column extends from a face-end to an ear-end of the temple member and the transverse ribs are connected to the spine. Each of the transverse ribs defines an angle relative to an axis defined by the column of the spine. Slots are formed between the ribs and the ribs are successively narrower moving from the face-end to the ear-end. The overlay is positioned on the spine and fills the slots formed between the ribs.
