Abstract: A user interface of an entity-centric knowledge discovery system presents an entity profile including a mix of structured and unstructured data relating to an entity. As a user refines the entity profile based on information gathered from various sources, the changing entity profile can be used as a substantially continuously updating query to search, retrieve, and rank new and pertinent information specifically relevant to the profiled entity. The platform described herein provide an active loop for refining an entity description and searching for additional information in which human input and machine-based algorithms can cooperate to more quickly build a comprehensive description of an entity of interest.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems, methods and computer readable media for classification of documents using a location hierarchy.

Abstract: A method of removing an auger from a food grinder via a food stomper. The food stomper has structure to engage the auger to transmit force on the stomper to the auger. As such, the stomper serves dual purpose of filling the grinder with food and as a tool for cleaning or otherwise removing an auger from the appliance.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of treating a cognitive or neu-rodegerative disease, comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment an effective amount of a compound of the formula (I):or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in combination with an effective amount of an anti-N3pGlu Abeta antibody selected from the group consisting of hE8L, B12L, R17L, Antibody I, and Antibody II.

Abstract: Systems for management of a large computing cluster. A set of computing nodes within the cluster are identified. The identified nodes are to be reimaged with an operating system image and parameters. One or more reimaging algorithms in the form of computer code are stored in a networked storage device within a storage pool that comprises the networked storage device and a plurality of local storage devices that correspond to respective individual ones of the set of computing nodes. An agent that can execute the reimaging algorithm code is configured to run on any one of the set of computing nodes, wherein the agent is further configured to retrieve reimaging data from a storage device that is within the storage pool. An agent running on a leader node initiates reimaging of a second node. The second node initiates reimaging of a third node. The third node reimages the leader node.

Abstract: A stomper for a food grinder comprises a distal end adapted to push food into a receiving tube of a food grinder, a proximal handle end adapted for a user to grasp the stomper while pushing food into the receiving tube of the food grinder, an elongated shaft between the distal end and the proximal handle end, a channel defined in the proximal handle end, and a bayonet projecting from one or more internal walls of the channel. The bayonet is adapted to engage a protrusion on an auger of the food grinder to apply a pulling force to remove the auger from the food grinder.

Abstract: A computerized process for managing member participation and progression in a health engagement program including the steps of automatically validating eligible members, queuing for manual review and validation, members not automatically validated, and providing an interactive portal to enable an administrator to manually validate. Also, gathering with the assistance of a communication device in communication with a server, member screening information that includes access to equipment required for the health engagement program, and at least one medical factor associated with each member's health history.

Abstract: System and methods are described for automatic pairing a plurality of devices within a vehicle. Based on a seat mapping stored within a server, a seat display unit and its allocated peripherals can be paired in sequence, one-by-one. Thus, a first seat display unit and its allocated peripherals can be powered on. Then, the peripherals can be paired with the first seat display unit, and the first seat display unit and the allocated peripherals can be powered down. Once this is complete, the next seat display unit and its allocated peripherals can be powered on, paired, and then powered down before continuing in sequence until all peripherals are paired with their allocated seat display units.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds of Formula (I), as defined in the specification, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, that are inhibitors of voltage-gated sodium channels, in particular Nav 1.7. The compounds are useful for the treatment of diseases treatable by inhibition of sodium channels such as pain disorders, cough, or itch. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of the present invention.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for increasing liquid absorption are described. Some embodiments may include a dressing having an absorbent layer containing super-absorbent material as well as ionic-exchange media (IEM). In some embodiments, the absorbent layer may include absorbent fibers. The absorbent fibers may each include a super-absorbent core surrounded by a water-permeable layer onto which ionic-exchange media (IEM) may be grafted. As liquid comes into contact with the IEM, its ionic nature may be reduced, therefore protecting the absorbent qualities of the super-absorbent material.
