Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for responding to requests received from users in a healthcare facility, and for generating alerts based upon criticality detected in received verbal utterances. A personal assistant device (PAD) may receive a verbal request for information. The identity of the requestor may be verified and a response to the request may be received by the PAD. In some cases, prior to audibly outputting the response, it may be determined whether the response contains protected health information (PHI). Upon determining that the response contains PHI, the presence of persons other than the patient in proximity to the PAD and/or security of the location of the PAD may be evaluated prior to audibly outputting the response. Additionally, alerts having a heightened criticality may be generated when a received verbal utterance is determined to have a heightened criticality.

Abstract: A machine learning model that uses composite metrology data determines at least one parameter of a device under test using measured metrology data from the device. The composite metrology data is generated by merging measured metrology data from a reference device with synthetic metrology data calculated from a model of the reference device. The composite metrology data may be generated further based on a synthetic metrology data calculated from a model for a modified reference device. The modified reference device may be generated using variations of at least one parameter of the model to expand the parameter space of the training range.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of video coding, where according to one method, input data related to a current block in a current picture are received at a video encoder side or compressed data comprising the current block are received at a video decoder side. A first syntax at a high level in a video bitstream regarding residual coding type is signaled at the encoder side or parsed at the decoder side. A target coding mode is determined for the current block based on information comprising a value of the first syntax. The current block is encoded at the encoder side or decoded at the decoder side according to the target coding mode. The high level may correspond to a slice header or a picture header.

Abstract: Methods and systems for processing of voice input to identify intents and mapped standard terminologies are provided. Using natural language processing, an intent of a voice input is identified. The intent is utilized to identify a standard terminology that maps to the intent. The standard terminology is utilized to identify information relevant to the standard terminology in a patient's electronic health record.

Abstract: A system includes a vacuum chamber, a vacuum source, and a mixture flow path adapted to be connected to receive the output of a direct steam injector. The vacuum source is operatively connected to a vacuum port of the vacuum chamber, while a product outlet port from the vacuum chamber is adapted to be connected to an arrangement for removing treated product from the vacuum chamber. The mixture flow path includes a flow path segment outside of the vacuum chamber volume and a flow path segment within the vacuum chamber volume. At least some of a surface defining the flow path segment within the vacuum chamber is in substantial thermal communication with one or more cooling structures.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein that provide a comprehensive view that reveals all or nearly all possible method dependencies that are present in client workflows. In aspects, when computer code for a particular method is going to be edited, other methods are identified that have upstream or downstream dependencies relative to the particular method. The methods that will be affected based on the computer code editing can be presented in a user-interactive graphical user interface that facilitates exploration of upstream and downstream dependencies.

Abstract: Motion forecasting for autonomous systems includes obtaining map data of a geographic region and historical trajectories of agents located in the geographic region. The map data includes map elements. The agents and the map elements have a corresponding physical locations in the geographic region. Motion forecasting further includes building, from the historical trajectories and the map data, a heterogeneous graph for the agents and the map elements. The heterogeneous graph defines the corresponding physical locations of the agents and the map elements relative to each other of the agents and the map elements. Motion forecasting further includes modelling, by a graph neural network, agent actions of an agent of the agents using the heterogeneous graph to generate an agent goal location, and operating an autonomous system based on the agent goal location.

Abstract: Systems and methods include providing an aircraft with a fuselage and a convertible engine disposed within the fuselage. The convertible engine is operable as a turbofan engine in a thrust mode and a turboshaft engine in a shaft power mode. The convertible engine includes a housing, an engine core having a low pressure turbine shaft, and a bypass fan system. The bypass fan system includes a bypass fan having a fan clutch. The fan clutch selectively couples at least a portion of the bypass fan to the low pressure turbine shaft when the convertible engine is operated in the thrust mode and decouples at least a portion of the bypass fan from the low pressure turbine shaft when the convertible engine is operated in the shaft power mode.

Abstract: A stroke detection system analyzes images of a person's face over time to detect asymmetric changes in the position of certain reference points that are consistent with sagging or drooping that may be symptomatic of a stroke or TIA. On detecting possible symptoms of a stroke or TIA, the system may alert caregivers or others, and log the event in a database. Identifying stroke symptoms automatically may enable more rapid intervention, and identifying TIA symptoms may enable diagnostic and preventative care to reduce the risk of a future stroke.

Abstract: Decision support technology is provided for use with patients who may be prone to a cardiovascular condition such as acute coronary syndromes. A mechanism is provided to determine a patient's risk for experiencing a cardiovascular ischemic event at a future time interval based on temporal patterns determined using physiological parameters of the patient such as serum or blood uric acid and/or C-reactive protein (CRP). A forecast or score may be determined indicating whether or not temporal patterns merit intervention to prevent occurrence or reoccurrence of ischemic events, or for determining adherence to or efficacy of treatment or preventive interventions. Based on the forecast or score, appropriate response action such as automatically issuing an alert or notification to a caregiver associated with the patient, may be determined, recommended, or implemented.

Abstract: Breathing systems and methods for a gearbox is described. Embodiments preferably create a closed system for air within the gearbox. As an operating gearbox warms the air or fluid within, or an altitude change causes air to expand or contract, increased pressure can result and air can escape through tubing to a cannister. The cannister can receive the expanding air in an impermeable cavity that is proximate to a bladder open or partially open to an exterior environment. Air can press on the bladder, expanding the cavity and shrinking the bladder until a pressure equilibrium is reached. As operation of the gearbox is lowered or powered off, or another altitude change occurs, the air can cool and/or retract into the gearbox. The bladder can then expand and press on the cavity until equalizing the pressure within the cannister.
