Abstract: A system for classifying the severity of a user's impairment can include a target apparatus, a plurality of inertial measurement units, and a processor. The target apparatus can include a base, a target structure coupled to the base, and a plurality of targets coupled to the target structure. The processor can be configured to classify the severity of the user's impairment based on the data collected from the inertial measurement units. A method can include classifying a severity of a person's impairment based on one or more motion features associated with the person's performance of one or more tasks at a target apparatus. A target apparatus used in assessing physical impairment of a user can include a track system, a target structure coupled to the track system, and a plurality of targets coupled to a central portion and arms of the target structure.

Abstract: The disclosed systems, servers and methods provide a novel transaction management framework that is configured to electronically manage, enable and/or control electronic transactions and their related data pursuant to current regulatory statutes, laws and legislature (e.g., Wire Act). In some embodiments, all transactions are controlled in a novel manner so as to require them remain within (e.g., originate within, be processed within and/or complete within) a desired (or required) geographic region or other desired (or required) boundary. Some embodiments reliably restrict all transactions and related data to a specific geographic area which is governed by one or more specific regulatory entities.

Abstract: An omnichannel intelligent negotiation assistant for generating timely, contextual negotiation assistance to a negotiator. The invention includes a semantic term extractor for converting a contract document into a negotiable term sheet. An omnichannel listener captures all negotiation inputs associated with a negotiation event, sequences each negotiation input by time, and analyzes the sentiment of the negotiation inputs in the context of a term sheet. The resulting annotated negotiation input stream is processed by an intervention generator that includes models of the parties and the negotiation itself as well as a referent negotiation model. The intervention generator includes a game theoretic model that, in concert with a trade-off matrix, allows the intervention generator to produce timely contextual interventions to the negotiator that assist in achieving a superior resulting negotiated agreement.

Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided which employ a silencing element that, when ingested by a plant insect pest, such as Coleopteran, Hemiptera, or Lepidopteran plant pest, including a Diabrotica, Leptinotarsa, Phyllotreta, Acyrthosiphan, Bemisia, Halyomorpha, Nezara, or Spodoptera plant pest, decrease the expression of a target sequence in the pest. Disclosed are various target polynucleotides set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOS: 1-398 disclosed herein, or variants and fragments thereof, or complements thereof, wherein a decrease in expression of one or more of the sequences in the target pest controls the pest. Plants, plant parts, bacteria and other host cells comprising the silencing elements or an active variant or fragment thereof of the invention are also provided.

Abstract: Data-driven operating model (DDOM) systems and techniques are described to manage implementation, access, and promotion of digital services by a service provider system. In one example, the DDOM system includes a data aggregation module, a journey manager module and a segment manager module. The data aggregation module supports a unified data architecture that is then leverage by the journey and segment manager modules to support matrixed journey stage and segmentation of a data lake to provide insights that are not possible by a human being alone, that are usable to manage implementation, access, and promotion of digital services by a service provider system.

Abstract: Systems, methods and devices for determination of disease class scores for patient tissue are disclosed. The disease class scores may be based on the probability or probability-like metric for a disease condition or outcome. The system includes an imaging apparatus and a computing system with instructions executable by a processor. The computer system may locate one or more points-of-interest on the pre-processed images of the patient tissue using a point-of-interest detector and generate one or more disease spatial maps including one or more probability or probability-like metric of disease classifications on the detected points-of-interest. The information in the disease spatial maps is aggregated to produce disease class scores.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to methods of molecular biology and gene silencing to control pests.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally related to enzymes, and to recombinant nucleic acid molecules encoding and/or expressing said enzymes, of the gut of the termite Reticulitermes flavipes. The disclosure further relates to a system combining said enzymes for substantially converting a plant lignocellulose to a fermentable sugar-based product.

Abstract: Termites have specialized digestive systems that overcome the lignin barrier in wood to release fermentable simple sugars. Using the termite Reticulitermes flavipes and its gut symbionts, high-throughput titanium pyrosequencing and proteomics approaches experimentally compared the effects of lignin-containing diets on host-symbiont digestome composition. Proteomic investigations and functional digestive studies with recombinant lignocellulases conducted in parallel provided strong evidence of congruence at the transcription and translational levels and provide enzymatic strategies for overcoming recalcitrant lignin barriers in biofuel feedstocks.

Abstract: A method and system for protecting against side channel attacks on cryptographic systems that attempt to recover information from externally detectable signals, such as electromagnetic fields or power input variations. A system operates in accordance with the subject invention to process a message using a cryptographic protocol involving a secret key d. The protocol includes a step for computing the result of iteratively performing a binary operation [op] on a digital quantity G, where a secret key d is taken as an integer value, such as elliptic curve scalar point multiplication or modular exponentiation.
