Abstract: A system that determines whether a trigger has occurred within a cloud infrastructure. The system, in response to determining that a trigger has occurred, extracts characteristics from one or more virtual network functions (VNFs) of a service chain. The system, in response to extracting characteristics from the one or more VNFs, determines rehoming actions for each of the one or more VNFs. The system, in response to determining rehoming actions, predicts a rehoming delay or a chain downtime for each of the rehoming actions for each of the one or more VNFs. The system determines an optimal rehoming action from the rehoming actions for at least one of the one or more VNFs using the rehoming delay or the chain downtime for each rehoming action of the rehoming actions. The system performs the optimal rehoming action for the at least one of one or more VNFs.

Abstract: A machine learning classifier that diagnoses autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is described that transforms data obtained from a patient medical history and a patients saliva into data that correspond to a test panel of features, the data for the features including human microtranscriptome and microbial transcriptome data, wherein the transcriptome data are associated with respective RNA categories for ASD. The classifier classifies the transformed data by applying the data to the classifier that has been trained to detect ASD using training data associated with the features of the test panel. The trained classifier includes vectors that define a classification boundary and predicts a probability of ASD based on results of the classifying.

Abstract: A system associated with determining physician attribution related to in-patient care based at least on prediction of attribution values associated with patient-physician attribution is disclosed. The system extracts clinical data associated with a patient from a first database, with the extracted clinical data comprising clinical information related to the patient and the clinical information including vector values indicative of clinical progress of the patient at various stages of treatment. The system stores the extracted clinical data in a second database and determines attribution values using the attribution manager with the attribution values being based on a predictive analysis using predetermined weights associated with the vector values. A training data set is generated based on learned weight values associated with the clinical progress of the patient. The system iteratively updates the vector values of the patient at least using a predictive analysis associated with the training data set.

Abstract: A system associated with progressive spatial analysis of prodigious 3D data including complex structures is disclosed. The system receives minimum boundary information related to a first data object and a second data object, which are proximate neighbors. The system determines whether boundary data associated with a first data object is within an area delineated by minimum boundary information of first data objects. A first geometric structure associated with the first data object is generated based on respective decompressed data. A structural skeleton is determined using the first geometric structure to identify respective skeleton vertices. A geometric representation is generated based on the skeleton vertices associated with the first geometric structure. The system determines whether boundary data associated with the second data object is within the area delineated by the minimum boundary information of the first data object.

Abstract: Receptor protein kinases (RPTKs) transmit extracellular signals across the plasma membrane to cytosolic proteins, stimulating formation of complexes that regulate key cellular functions. Over 5 half of the known tyrosine kinases are implicated in human cancers and are therefore highly promising drug targets. A large-scale loss-of-function analysis of tyrosine kinases using RNA interference in the clinically relevant Erb-B2 positive, BT474 breast cancer cell line showed that Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), a cytosolic, non-receptor tyrosine kinase that has been extensively studied for its role in B cell development, is required, in altered form, for BT474 10 breast cancer survival. This alternative form contains an amino-terminal extension that is also present in tumorigenic breast cells at significantly higher levels than in normal breast cells.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a source, a drain, and a channel electrically connected to the source and the drain. The channel has a channel length from the drain to the source which is less than or equal to an electron mean free path of the channel material. A first gate has two arms, each extending between the drain and the source (i.e., at least a portion of the distance between the source and the drain). Each arm of the first gate is disposed proximate to a corresponding first and second edge of the channel. Each arm of the first gate has a periodic profile along an inner boundary, wherein the periodic profiles of each arm are offset from each other such that a distance between the arms is constant. A Bloch voltage applied to the first gate will reduce the effective channel with such that Bloch resonance conditions are met.
