Abstract: A method for generating training data can include: determining a set of images; determining a set of masks based on the images; determining a first mesh based on the set of masks; optionally determining a refined mesh by recomputing the first mesh; optionally determining one or more faces of the refined mesh; optionally adding one or more keypoints to the refined mesh; optionally determining a material property set for the object; optionally generating a full object mesh; determining one or more scenes; optionally determining training data based on the one or more scenes; optionally training one or more object detectors using the training data; and detecting one or more objects using the trained object detector.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present disclosure pertains to data import and reconciliation. In one embodiment, a location field is compared against alternative geo-descriptors to link the location fields to areaIDs and geospatial shapes. A similarity search is performed against unmatched location fields. In one example embodiment, a table is generated with unique location IDs, areaIDs, and metadata describing the results of the comparison.

Abstract: A control system for allowing a user to control the orientation of a medical device or a medical instrument in a variety of directions. An actuator selectively tensions one or more control cables having ends secured at or adjacent a distal tip of the medical device in order to bend the distal tip in a desired direction. In one embodiment, a physician can adjust the movement of the distal tip in a desired direction without affecting the orientation of the medical device in other directions.

Abstract: Novel substituted phthalazinones of the formula (I) ##STR1## are useful as neurotensin antagonists.

Abstract: Phenoxyphenylacetic acids and derivatives of general structural formula I ##STR1## have endothelin antagonist activity and are therefore useful in treating cardiovascular disorders, such as hypertension, postischemic renal failure, vasospasm, cerebal and cardiac ischemia, myocardial infarction, inflammatory diseases, Raynaud's disease, and endotoxic shock, and asthma.

Abstract: Phenoxyphenylacetic acids and derivatives of general structural formula I have endothelin ##STR1## antagonist activity and are therefore useful in treating cardiovascular disorders, such as hypertension, congestive heart failure, postischemic renal failure, vasospasm, cerebral and cardiac ischemia, myocardial infarction, inflammatory diseases, Raynaud's disease, and endotoxic shock, and asthma.

Abstract: Novel chemical compounds are provided which selectively inhibit the metabolism of renal dipeptidase (E.C.3.4.13.11) and therefore are useful in combination with antibacterial products. These chemical compounds are (Z,Z)-.alpha.,.alpha.'-bis(2,2-disubstituted cyclopropanecarboxamido)-.alpha.,.alpha.'-alkadienedioic acids.
