Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for compact radar systems. In some examples, a compact radar system can include a first set of transmit antennas, a second set of receive antennas, one or more processors, and at least one computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the radar system to coordinate digital beam steering of the first set of transmit antennas and the second set of receive antennas, and coordinate digital beam forming with one or more of the second set of receive antennas to detect one or more objects within a distance of the radar system.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for developing an individual-specific patient baseline for a target patient. An exemplary method involves: determining one or more acuity scores for the target patient; identifying patient health data corresponding to one or more low acuity time periods; storing retrospective clinical data from a group of patients in a second database; comparing the patient health data corresponding to the one or more low acuity time periods with retrospective clinical data from a group of patients by identifying one or more patient subgroups; determining the individual-specific patient baseline using an adaptive baseline selection algorithm, wherein the adaptive baseline selection algorithm is used to determine whether to determine the individual-specific patient baseline using patient health data or using retrospective clinical data from one or more patient subgroups; and displaying, using a user interface, the individual-specific patient baseline.

Abstract: A method of suppressing steam production in a HRSG where a volume of feed water is diverted upstream bypassing a portion of the economizer and returning the volume of diverted feed water to a downstream portion of the economizer. A control logic circuit is used to manipulate a suppression control valve regulating the bypassed feed water, thereby reducing the temperature of water in the steam drum. Bypassing feed water flow into a downstream portion of an economizer reduces the steam production rate in the steam drum by increasing the evaporator approach temperature, permitting gas turbines to operate at base load even after an upgrade, by preventing the waste heat boiler from exceeding its rated capacity and pressure.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed for monitoring a performance of mechanical joints. Methods may include receiving, from a first plurality of sensors, a first plurality of measurements associated with a first mechanical joint included in the plurality of mechanical joints. The methods may also include generating, at a trend engine, at least one failure detection metric based on the first plurality of measurements. The failure detection metric may characterize a prediction of an operational failure associated with the first mechanical joint.

Abstract: A reduced digestible carbohydrate food made from a dough and consisting of a pasta, noodle or restructured rice particle, the food having a modified matrix structure that comprises discrete units of starch granules that comprise available carbohydrate, and a protective food film network that includes a non-digestible protective material, which surrounds the discrete units of starch granules to provide protection of a portion of the available carbohydrate from digestion in the small intestine when the reduced digestible carbohydrate food is eaten, the dough comprising a flour and the non-digestible protective material. Reducing the digestion of carbohydrates in a digestible carbohydrate-based material, and reducing the absorption of the digestion product(s) of carbohydrates (that is, simple sugars) within the small intestine. The undigested digestible carbohydrate and the unabsorbed digestion products pass through the small intestines and into the colon, where they are fermented, acting like dietary fibers.

Abstract: Reducing the digestion of digestible carbohydrates in a digestible carbohydrate-based material, and reducing the absorption of the digestion product(s) of digestible carbohydrates (that is, simple sugars) within the small intestine. The undigested digestible carbohydrate and the unabsorbed digestion products pass through the small intestines and into the colon, where they are fermented. In effect, the food materials made by practicing the present invention cause a controlled amount of digestible carbohydrate to by-pass the small intestine, resulting in the fermentation of digestible carbohydrates in the colon. The invention also provides for processing of a digestible carbohydrate-based ingredient with a non-digestible food film material, to form a reduced digestible carbohydrate food having a protective food film network, which can inhibit or prevent digestion of the digestible carbohydrate.

Abstract: A method for an automated call distribution system to re-associate a caller with a queue position previously established in an on-hold queue. The method includes receiving a first incoming call from a caller and assigning the caller to a position in an on-hold queue when the caller is placed on-hold by the automated call distribution system. A placeholder for the caller may then be assigned in the on-hold queue when the caller disconnects with the automated call distribution system. The placeholder corresponds to the position of the caller in the on-hold queue and is associated with a caller identifier. The method further includes receiving a second incoming call from the caller and associating the second incoming call with the caller identifier. It is then determined that the caller is associated with the placeholder. The caller is placed back into the on-hold queue at the position of the placeholder.

Abstract: One embodiment disclosed relates to a method for provisioning subnets. The subnets are grouped into subnet groups based on logical properties of the subnets. Each network consumer is assigned those subnet groups that are accessible to that network consumer. The network consumer is then provided with an interface for constrained selection of a particular subnet.
