Abstract: An in vitro method is disclosed for characterizing a tumour, based on the quantitative analysis of modified and unmodified nucleosides from total cellular RNA, from extracellular RNA and/or from isolated nucleosides, extracted from a biological sample. More particularly, the invention relates to a method for predicting the grade of a glial tumour. More particularly, the invention also relates to a method for detecting a tumour. The present invention therefore lies in the fields of cancerology and molecular biology, more particularly applied to medical diagnosis.

Abstract: Techniques are described for executing satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) solvers in a “shadow” system configuration where input queries are provided to a primary SMT solver system and additionally to one or more secondary SMT solver systems. SMT solver systems can be used by cloud providers and in other computing environments to analyze the implications of configured user account policies defining permissions with respect to users' computing resources and associated actions within a computing environment, to help ensure the security of computing resources and user data, etc. The results generated by a primary SMT solver system can be provided to one or more secondary SMT solver systems, where each of the secondary SMT systems can comprise different system components or different versions of system components, to assess the correctness of the primary SMT solver system, to compare performance metrics, among other possible types of analyses.

Abstract: A perforated replaceable insert for a sand separator vessel in a digester feed system where the perforations have at least a width and a length. The perforations are aligned columns and rows, with the columns being positioned to be parallel to a line formed by the tangent of the conical axis.

Abstract: Embodiments that relate to converting audio inputs from an environment into text are disclosed. For example, in one disclosed embodiment a speech conversion program receives audio inputs from a microphone array of a head-mounted display device. Image data is captured from the environment, and one or more possible faces are detected from image data. Eye-tracking data is used to determine a target face on which a user is focused. A beamforming technique is applied to at least a portion of the audio inputs to identify target audio inputs that are associated with the target face. The target audio inputs are converted into text that is displayed via a transparent display of the head-mounted display device.
