Abstract: A system is disclosed that obtains an image of an apparel item and text describing the apparel item. The system also determines descriptive metadata of the apparel item by extracting information from the text. Further, the system further determines categorization metadata of the apparel item by analyzing the image. Additionally, the system stores the image, the descriptive metadata, and the categorization metadata in a virtual closet. Moreover, the system provides a recommendation of an outfit from a stylist to a user based on the virtual closet.

Abstract: An invasive medical device includes a fluid path of microbubbles which is imaged by ultrasound during use of the device. The fluid path extends through the device, preferably to the distal end of the device, so that the diffuse reflection of ultrasound from the microbubbles can be received to image the location of the device. The fluid path can be open, terminating at the tip of the device, or can be a closed path of a circulating microbubble fluid used for imaging and/or cooling.

Abstract: Compounds of general formula I, and the salts and solvates thereof, wherein R1 represents the radical 2-benzoylphenylamino; R2 represents —(CH2)s—N(COR3)-A-J-T or —(CH2)s—N(R4)-B-J-T; and s, R3, R4, A, B, J and T have the meanings disclosed herein. These compounds are PPAR? modulators and, therefore, are useful for the treatment or prevention of a condition or a disease mediated by these receptors.

Abstract: Carbamate of general formula (I), wherein R1, R2, and R3 are H, OH, NO2, SH, CN, F, Cl, Br, I, COOH, CONH2, (C1-C4)-alkoxycarbonyl, (C1-C4)-alkylsulfanyl, (C1-C4)-alkylsulfinyl, (C1-C4)-alkylsulfonyl, (C1-C4)-alkoxyl optionally substituted with one or several F, and (C1-C4)-alkyl optionally substituted with one or several F or OH; R4 is cycloalkyl, phenyl, heteroaryl or a bicyclic ring system; R5 is cycloalkyl, (C5-C10)-alkyl, a substituted (C1-C10)-alkyl; and X? is a physiologically acceptable anion. Carbamate (I) is selective M3 receptor antagonists versus M2 receptor and may be used for the treatment of urinary incontinence (particularly, the one caused by overactive bladder), irritable bowel syndrome, and respiratory disorders (particularly, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic bronchitis, asthma, emphysema, and rhinitis), as well as in ophthalmic interventions.

Abstract: The invention relates to carbamates having general structure (I), wherein: R1, R2 and R3 are H, OH, SH, CN, F, Cl, Br, I, (C1–C4)-alkylthio, (C1–C4)-alkoxyl, (C1–C4)-alkoxyl substituted by one or several F radicals, carbamoylamine, (C1–C4)alkyl and (C1–C4)alkyl substituted by one or several F or OH radicals; R4 represents a substituted or non-substituted cycloalkyl or cycloaryl radical (a heteroalkyl radical or not). The amine of the quinuclidine ring can also be forming quaternary ammonium salts or in an oxidized state (N-oxide). Carbamates (I) are antagonists of the M3 muscarinic receptor, and selectively, the M2 receptor. Hence, they can be used in the treatment of urinary incontinence (particularly due to bladder instability), irritable bowel syndrome, diseases of the respiratory tract (particularly chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic bronchitis, asthma, emphysema and rhinitis) and in ophthalmologic operations.

Abstract: Compounds of general structure (I), wherein the central benzene ring may be substituted in the meta- or para-position; -A is an optionally substituted hydroxyl, alkoxyl, hydroxylamine, alkoxylamine or amine radical; -W is an N- and C-linked biradical selected from several possibilities; and -Z is a carbon radical selected from several possibilities. These compounds are PPAR? and PPAR?/PPAR? modulators and, therefore, are useful for the prophylactic and/or curative treatment of a condition or a disease mediated by these recetpcors.

Abstract: A method and system for adapting a focused beam of focused ultrasound imaging signals from an ultrasound probe (14) for compensating for the presence of an aberration (X) in a medium (OBJ) transmits a focused ultrasound imaging signal (FOC) into a region of a medium using a plurality of focused beams from a plurality of probe array elements (P). The return focused ultrasound imaging signals are received and a focused decomposition of time-reversal operator process determines the presence of an aberration in the region and correlates the aberration to selected probe array elements. The method and system adapt selected characteristics associated with the transmission of the ultrasound imaging signals and reception of the return focused ultrasound imaging signals from the selected probe array elements for compensating for the presence of the aberration in the region.

Abstract: The invention relates to carbamates having general structure (I), wherein: R1, R2 and R3 are H, OH, SH, CN, F, Cl, Br, I, (C1-C4)-alkylthio, (C1-C4)-alkoxyl, (C1-C4)-alkoxyl substituted by one or several F radicals, carbamoylamine, (C1-C4)-alkyl and (C1-C4)-alkyl substituted by one or several F or OH radicals; R4 represents a substituted or non-substituted cycloalkyl or cycloaryl radical (a heteroalkyl radical or not).
