Abstract: Disclosed are vanadium (V) compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising these vanadium compounds. Also disclosed are methods of making and using these vanadium compounds, for example, to treat cancer (e.g., including brain cancer).

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of determining a location of a mobile device is provided. The method can include receiving inertial data generated at the mobile device, the inertial data including a plurality of samples taken at different times, segmenting the inertial data into pseudo-independent windows, wherein each pseudo-independent window can include a plurality of the samples and wherein one or more initial states for each pseudo-independent window are treated as unknown, estimating a change in navigation state over each pseudo-independent window using the samples of inertial data, and summing the changes in the navigation states over the pseudo-independent windows so as to determine the location of the mobile device.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method 1000 of constructing a model of the motion of a mobile device, wherein the method comprises using a sensor of the device to obtain 1002 positional data providing an estimated pose of the mobile device, generating an initial graph 1004 based upon the positional data from the sensor, nodes of which graph provide a series of possible poses of the device, and edges of which graph represent odometry and/or loop closure constraints; processing the graph to estimate 1006 confidence scores for each loop closure by performing pairwise consistency tests between each loop closure and a set of other loop closures; and generating an augmented graph from the initial graph by retaining or deleting 1008 each loop closure based upon the confidence scores.
