Abstract: This disclosure relates to thermal thrombectomy and atherectomy systems and methods for removing an occlusion, such as a thrombus and/or plaque from a blood vessel. The systems can include a distal balloon and a proximal balloon. The distal balloon can be positioned distal of the occlusion, and the proximal balloon can be positioned proximal of the occlusion. The system can include an irrigation catheter that directs heated fluid to the occlusion between the distal and proximal balloons. The heated fluid can soften and/or emulsify the occlusion. The system can include an aspiration catheter that can aspirate the softened and/or emulsified occlusion from the blood vessel.

Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques that enable continuous personalization of face authentication. In aspects, an authentication system associated with a network includes an authentication manager. The authentication manager receives an embedding representing image data associated with a user's face. The authentication manager generates a confidence score based on the embedding. Further, the authentication manager updates previously enrolled embeddings with the embedding based on the confidence score, the embedding meeting a clustering confidence threshold. Through such a technique, the authentication manager can alter the previously enrolled embeddings by which a future embedding is used to authenticate the user's face. By so doing, the techniques may provide more-accurate and successful user authentication over time.

Abstract: A method includes selecting an entigen group from a knowledge database. The entigen group is a most likely meaning of a phrase of a string of words. An entigen of the entigen group corresponds to a selected identigen from a set of identigens regarding a word of the string of words. The set of identigens represent different meanings of the word. The method further includes identifying other entigen groups of alternate phrases having a similar most likely meaning from the knowledge database. The alternate phrases are different permutations of the string of words. The method further includes determining a dominant sentiment the other entigen groups and generating an updated clarifying entigen group based on the sentiment.

Abstract: A method includes detecting an incomplete entigen group within a knowledge database. The incomplete entigen group includes entigens and one or more entigen relationships between at least some of the entigens. The incomplete entigen group represents knowledge of a topic. The method further includes obtaining additive content for the topic based on the incomplete entigen group and generating an additive entigen group based on the additive content. The method further includes updating the incomplete entigen group utilizing the additive entigen group to produce an updated entigen group. The method further includes indicating that the updated entigen group has an un-curated status when the additive entigen group conflicts with the incomplete entigen group.

Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining a set of identigens for each phrase word of a phrase to produce sets of identigens. A set of identigens of the sets of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a phrase word of the phrase.
