Abstract: A port assembly for the addition of more than one drug solution to a jet nebulizer without disassembling the nebulizer or disconnecting the nebulizer from a ventilation circuit is provided. In an embodiment the port assembly has a sleeve with a branch and a compression nut adapted to mate with a port adapter of the nebulizer to form a channel for adding a drug solution to a nebulizer. A tube through the channel allows for the addition of a first drug. The branch on the sleeve provides a port and channel for the addition of a second solution into the nebulizer. This port assembly allows a clinician to administer a plurality of drugs to a patient using a nebulizer on a mechanical ventilator without interrupting the integrity of the breathing circuit to add an additional drug solution to the nebulizer.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for detecting whether an Automatic Number Identification (ANI) associated with an incoming call is a gateway, according to rules-based models and machine learning models generated by the computer using call data stored in one or more databases.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating strings based on a seed string are disclosed. Machine learning models are trained using domain-specific training data. Random walk models are derived from the trained machine learning models. A seed string is input into each of the random walk models, and each of the random walk models iteratively generate one or more next characters for the seed string to generate at least one term from each of the random walk models. A predicted class for the at least one term generated by each of the random walk models can be determined, and a ranked order for the at least one term generated by each of the random walk models with the predicted classes can be output to a graphical user interface.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus related to water desalination. In one aspect, a method includes generating a diluted draw solution using forward osmosis. Wastewater is on a first side of an osmotic membrane and a draw solution is on a second side of the osmotic membrane. The draw solution comprises a mixture of water and an ionic liquid. Water in the wastewater diffuses across the osmotic membrane to the draw solution to form the diluted draw solution. The diluted draw solution is heated using a photonic heater to a temperature above a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the ionic liquid to phase separate the diluted draw solution into the ionic liquid and treated water.

Abstract: In general, embodiments relates to a method for managing a technical support session, comprising: obtaining technical support question from a technical support person (TSP) that is conducting the technical support session; determining that the technical support question is a duplicate of a prior technical support question; in response to the determination, obtaining a quality score for the technical support question; and displaying the quality score to the TSP in a user interface on a technical support system that the TSP is using the conduct the technical support session.

Abstract: A method and system for determining customer-facing inventory for online and offline environments are disclosed. Method includes receiving promise engine data and calculating duration of OOS for each hour of day for each product listing ID of product listing identities (IDs), using timestamps received via promise engine data. Method includes analyzing in-stock of products and appending listings to create single in-stock number at product level and dark store level for day. Method includes determining in-stock waterfall at product level and dark store level for day and each hour, and comparing determined in-stock waterfall with inventory data at product level and dark store level for day and each hour/timestamps in day, to isolate symmetrical issues related to visibility of accurate inventory.
