  • Publication number: 20220075917
    Abstract: A system may support adaptive user interfaces (Us) for computer-aided technology (CAx) applications. The system may include a CAx tracking engine configured to track command usage of a computer-aided technology (CAx) application to obtain command usage data for the CAx application and a CAx training engine configured to train a machine learning model with the command usage data. The system may also include a CAx adaptive UI engine configured to obtain real-time command usage by a user of the CAx application; and apply the machine learning model to adaptively transform a UI of the CAx application, including by inputting the real-time command usage of the CAx application to the machine learning model to determine a predicted command based on the real-time command usage and dynamically updating a selected sub-section of the UI of the CAx application to present the predicted command to the user.

  • Patent number: 8647315
    Abstract: A medical canister connector is presented for connecting to a medical canister, which has a patient port and a reduced-pressure port. The medical canister connector includes a first connection member that is coupled to a patient-port-attachment member, which is for coupling to a patient port on a medical canister and has a patient-port opening with a first longitudinal axis. The medical canister connector also includes a second connection member coupled to a reduced-pressure-port-attachment member, which is for coupling to a reduced-pressure port on the medical canister and has a reduced-pressure-port opening with a second longitudinal axis. A spacing member or pressure transport member may be used to couple the first connection member to the second connection member. The spacing member or transport member flexes and twists during connection. The medical canister connector may also help organize one or more pressure-sensing conduits. Methods are also presented.
