Abstract: A monitored area including a plurality of video cameras is monitored for possible events. A video camera captures a video stream showing a portion of the monitored area and performs video analysis on the captured video stream. When the video camera identifies an event of interest within the captured video stream, the video camera generates event information associated with the identified event of interest. The video camera uses the relative location information to determine which video camera of the plurality of video cameras is positioned to capture the event of interest now and/or in the future and instructs that video camera to track the event.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to hIL2 orthogonal ligands (“IL2 orthologs”) that specifically and selectively bind to the extracellular domain (ECD) a transmembrane polypeptide comprising of a modified hCD122 polypeptide. The binding of the hIL2 ortholog to the modified hCD122 polypeptide participates in the transduction pathway of intracellular signaling resulting in a biological activity of the native intracellular signaling patterns associated with hIL2 binding to either the intermediate or high affinity hIL2 receptor but which exhibits selectivity to an engineered cell expressing an hCD122 orthogonal receptor. The hIL2 orthologs of the present invention exhibit significantly reduced binding relative to their binding to the extracellular domain of wild type hCD122, either alone or when hCD122 is present in the form of an endogenous high or intermediate affinity hIL2 receptors.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for personalizing media content. Personalization digital media templates can be retrieved that designate (i) particular types of media content to be combined with particular preselected digital video files and (ii) particular times within particular preselected digital video files at which the particular types of media content are to be combined with the particular preselected digital video files, the particular times being relative to the times within the preselected digital video files at which emotionally impactful moments occur. Digital media content can be assembled for the personalized digital video files using particular preselected digital video files, the digital media templates, and the personal digital media file. The assembled digital media content can be encoded using a common video codec to generate the personalized digital video files.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for receiving a first communication request, from a web browser of a user. A first responder requests information and a response to the request for information is received as part of a conversation. A conversation identifier is used to store the conversation. Based on the conversation, the conversation is determined to stop and a second responder is identified. The conversation is then transferred to the second responder.

Abstract: Rotational atherectomy devices and systems can remove or reduce stenotic lesions in implanted grafts by rotating one or more abrasive elements within the graft. The abrasive elements can be attached to a distal portion of an elongate flexible drive shaft that extends from a handle assembly that includes a driver for rotating the drive shaft. In particular implementations, individual abrasive elements are attached to the drive shaft at differing radial angles in comparison to each other (e.g., configured in a helical array). The centers of mass of the abrasive elements can define a path that fully or partially spirals around the drive shaft.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for monitoring a plurality of conversations within a monitored space to generate a conversation data set; processing the conversation data set using machine learning to: define a system-directed command for an ACI system, and associate one or more conversational contexts with the system-directed command; detecting the occurrence of a specific conversational context within the monitored space, wherein the specific conversational context is included in the one or more conversational contexts associated with the system-directed command; and executing, in whole or in part, functionality associated with the system-directed command in response to detecting the occurrence of the specific conversational context without requiring the utterance of the system-directed command and/or a wake-up word/phrase.

Abstract: Methods and systems for improving NOx conversion efficiency of a selective catalytic reduction catalyst are described. In one example, an amount of NH3 stored in a SCR is adjusted after stopping an engine so that a desired amount of NH3 may be stored within the SCR when the engine is restarted.
