Abstract: Systems and methods for generating optical character recognition (OCR) models configured to identify characters from a variety of different documents. The OCR models are based on a base model. One or more outside models can be tested to determine their effectiveness in supplementing the base model. When an outside model is effective it is incorporated into the base model. Generations of base models can be created that provide for additional functionality that is not present in the preceding model. A family of the generations of base models is maintained.

Abstract: Systems and methods related to serial communication devices are provided. An example integrated circuit (IC) device includes interface circuitry coupled to a two-wire serial communication bus having a serial clock (SCL) line and a serial data (SDA) bus line. The IC device further includes bus stuck recovery circuitry to monitor for a local SDA fault condition at the IC device based on a number of clock cycles during which an internal SDA signal (e.g., generated by the IC device) drives the SDA bus line to a first signal state, the clock cycles based on a clock signal received from the SCL line; and responsive to the local SDA fault condition, release the SDA bus line independent of the internal SDA signal, where the SDA bus line is in a second signal state different from the first signal state based on the release.

Abstract: A dental mouthpiece is provided that may be attached to a high-suction dental adapter for the purpose of assisting the dental staff during dental procedures through chair-side, hands-free suction, and isolation. Such a mouthpiece may comprise a main body portion, a cheek retractor portion, and a suction connector portion. In an embodiment, the main body portion, cheek retractor portion, and suction connector portion may be molded in one piece, preferably by injection molding. The main body portion has an anterior wall inside the curve and a posterior wall outside the curve, and an at least one connector connecting the anterior wall and the posterior wall. The main body portion has an anterior intervening wall and the posterior intervening wall in between the anterior and posterior walls. The anterior intervening wall and the posterior intervening walls have alternating crests and troughs.

Abstract: A system for determining pathogenic genetic variants is described.

Abstract: A dental mouthpiece is provided that may be attached to a high-suction dental adapter for the purpose of assisting the dental staff during dental procedures through chair-side, hands-free suction, and isolation. Such a mouthpiece may comprise a main body portion, a cheek retractor portion, and a suction connector portion. In some embodiments, the main body portion, cheek retractor portion, and suction connector portion (and sub-portions thereof) may be molded in one piece, preferably by injection molding. In an exemplary embodiment, the mouthpiece may be made of a material that is flexible, translucent, conducive to injection molding, high heat-resistant, and autoclavable. Such a material may include silicone. Because the mouthpiece may be made of a high heat-resistant and autoclavable material, such a mouthpiece may be reusable.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for inducing an immune response in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject an immunologically-effective amount of a live Salmonella Typhi vector, wherein the Salmonella Typhi vector has been engineered to express one or more cancer antigens. In some aspects the vector has been engineered to express an outer membrane folding protein BamA or a fragment or variant thereof; and a lipid A deacylase PagL or a fragment or variant thereof, wherein the Salmonella Typhi vector is capable of delivering the antigen to a mucosal tissue or subcutaneously to dendritic cells via an outer membrane vesicle when administered to a subject.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods of inducing an immune response in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject an immunologically-effective amount of a live Salmonella Typhi vector comprising a heterologous antigen from a pathogen, wherein the heterologous antigen comprises an outer membrane protein, an antigenic fragment thereof or a variant thereof, wherein the antigen is delivered to a mucosal tissue of the subject by an outer membrane vesicle.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a two-way data transfer and synchronization system. The data transfer and synchronization system includes a provider system and a customer system. The provider system includes a web service hosted by a web server connected to a computer network and a first database. The customer system includes a client application, connected to the computer network and a second database (e.g., SIS database). The provider system cannot read data from the second database. The client application is configured to send requests to the web service and to receive HTTP responses from the web service. The responses from the web service are executed by the client application so that changes made to the second database are also made to the first database, and vice versa.
