Abstract: In patient cohort identification, clustering (30) of patients is performed using a patient comparison metric dependent on a set of features (24). Information is displayed on sample patients who are similar or dissimilar to a query patient according to the clustering. User inputted comparison values are received comparing the sample patients with the query patient. The set of features and/or feature weights are adjusted to generate an adjusted patient comparison metric having improved agreement with the user inputted comparison values. The clustering is repeated using the adjusted patient comparison metric. A patient cohort is identified from a cluster (34) containing the query patient produced by the last clustering repetition. The information on the sample patients may be shown by simultaneously displaying two or more graphical modality representations (70, 72, 74) each plotting the sample patients and the query patient against two or more features of the modality.

Abstract: A chamber cross-sectional multi-stage plasma arrangement characterized by escalating charge movement towards chamber center axis through one or more escalation stages contributing to the heating of the plasma, the centering of the plasma on the chamber axis, and creating rotation of the plasma therein. Rotation of the plasma around its axis induces a self-generated magnetic field, which in turn increases plasma stability and confinement. Some of the said stages of the multi-stage arrangement may be created by physical elements and components while others may be induced or generated by externally applying magnetic and/or electric fields or their combinations and/or by injection of electrons, ions or other plasma.

Abstract: A mobile wallet system to users is described. The mobile wallet system allows users to provide payments to merchants via the mobile wallet system. Users' mobile wallets are linked to payment forms associated with the users (e.g., bank accounts, credit cards, gift cards, etc.). Additionally, the mobile wallet system allows a first user to request funding from or provide funding to a second user for certain transactions. To pay for a good or service provided by a merchant, a user selects a form of payment, which may be another user, and provides a code to the merchant, which is used by a merchant computing system to initiate payment from the user to the merchant via the financial institution computing system.

The computer-implemented method further includes determining that the one or more indicators meet a threshold level for notifying the user of the data breach; in response to determining that the one or more indicators meet the threshold, generating a notification specific to the user regarding the data breach; and providing the notification to the user during a log-in process associated with the provider computing system.

Abstract: An apparatus for processing audiovisual data for a scene comprises a receiver (201) for receiving audiovisual data for the scene. The audiovisual data comprises audio data for the scene comprising a plurality of audio elements and image data for at least a first image of the scene where the first image has a first aspect ratio. An image remapper (203) performs a content dependent non-uniform mapping of the first image to a second image which has a different aspect ratio. The image remapper (207) is arranged to generate mapping data describing the content dependent non-uniform mapping. An audio remapper (207) replaces a first audio element of the plurality of audio elements by a second audio element generated by modifying a spatial property for the first audio element in response to the mapping data. The spatial property being modified may be a position and/or spatial spread of the first audio element.
