Abstract: Immune context scores are calculated for tumor tissue samples using continuous scoring functions. Feature metrics for at least one immune cell marker are calculated for a region or regions of interest, the feature metrics including at least a quantitative measure of human CD3 or total lymphocyte counts. A continuous scoring function is then applied to a feature vector including the feature metric and at least one additional metric related to an immunological biomarker, the output of which is an immune context score. The immune context score may then be plotted as a function of a diagnostic or treatment metric, such as a prognostic metric (e.g. overall survival, disease-specific survival, progression-free survival) or a predictive metric (e.g. likelihood of response to a particular treatment course). The immune context score may then be incorporated into diagnostic and/or treatment decisions.

Abstract: The disclosed enhancements optimize the use of the live browse cache and pseudo-disk storage areas, improving metadata handling so that it can be used more effectively to speed up live browse and file indexing of backup copies in a data storage management system. The enhancements operate granularly to identify within each extent being backed up smaller sectors that comprise metadata. The disclosed approach pre-fetches the metadata of the backup copy before allowing the file scan of the file indexing and/or the live browse operation to proceed. The backup operation, the file indexing operation, and the live browse operation are enhanced to handle the more granular metadata sectors without changing the granularity of the full extents generated and stored in the backup.

Abstract: A system and method assessing maritime vessel risk in response to automatically detected maritime visual events is provided. At least one maritime visual event is detected by at least one camera aboard a vessel that provides image data of the visual event to a processor. The visual event can be associated with at least one of, safety, security, maintenance, crew behavior, and cargo.

Abstract: An improved method for humidification of a facilitated-transport membrane incorporates delivering a non-selective hydration fluid incorporating liquid water to a permeate side of a pressure vessel containing the facilitated transport membrane. The non-selective hydration fluid includes water and may be configured on the permeate side interface of the facilitated-transport membrane as a liquid or a gas. A process for separation of components in a gaseous mixture utilizing the method for humidification produces higher permeation of gasses through the facilitated transport membrane. The non-selective hydration fluid may be static or flowing and is non-selective for the permeance of certain permeate-gas components over other components.
