Abstract: A method can include establishing, by a computing system, a secure electronic network connection to an electronic agent running configured to access the dataset to dynamically generate the metadata related to the dataset on a client computing system. A method can include receiving, by the computing system, from the electronic agent via the secure electronic network connection, metadata related to a dataset, the metadata comprising a plurality of attributes of the dataset and a summary of the dataset. A method can include applying a valuation model to the metadata to determine an estimated value of the dataset, the valuation model comprising a machine learning model trained using marketplace data comprising sales prices and attributes of one or more datasets, wherein the model is trained to output the sales prices of the one or more datasets. A method can include determining, an estimated value of the dataset.

Abstract: An automatic x-ray inspection system and method for inspecting objects, containing a cabinet, a path for an object to roll within the cabinet, from an entry point to an exit point, wherein the path utilizes gravity to alter the position and orientation of the object as it travels along the path, an x-ray imaging system to image the object along the path within the cabinet, wherein the x-ray imaging system has a field of view that captures views of the object along the object's travel, and a computer algorithm to determine a thickness of at least one of a shell and center of the object, wherein if a uniform thickness is determined, the object is tagged as passed or non-passed.

Abstract: A technique for assessing property condition is provided that determines property condition for an individual property of interest using primary property records specific to the property of interest (e.g., construction records) and secondary property information (weather in the surrounding geographic area, neighborhood characteristics). In certain embodiments, where a primary property record is missing or incomplete, the secondary property information may be used to extrapolate the missing information.

Abstract: A physical therapy chair. Implementations may include a seat bottom coupled to a chair base adjustable along a z axis. A seat back couples to the seat bottom at an angle to the axis. An arm support slidably couples to the seat back and is fixable at desired positions. An arm has first, second, and third arm portions. The first arm portion pivotally couples to the arm support, the second arm portion rotatably couples to the first arm portion, and the third arm portion rotatably couples to the second arm portion. A leg couples to the seat bottom and has upper and lower leg portions. The upper leg portion has an upper first portion and an upper second portion. The upper first portion pivotally couples to the seat bottom and slidably couples to the upper second portion which slides thereby to change a length of the upper leg portion.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that allow a user to monitor, diagnose, and configure a process. A user interface may be presented that displays data received from process monitors, sensors, and multivariate models. The user interface may be interactive, allowing a user to select which composite and multivariate models are displayed. The user interface and multivariate model may be constructed and updated in real time. The user interface may present various data and interfaces, such as a representation of a composite variable in a multivariate model, a representation of the contribution of process variables to the composite variable, and a representation of a subset of the process variables. The user may select a point of the composite variable for analysis, and the interface may indicate the contribution and values of process variables at the selected point. The interface may be transmitted to a remote user.

Positioning means (5) are arranged on the reinforcing element, cooperating with positioning means (7), arranged on further optical elements. The optical imaging system in particular concerns a telescope for optical transmission techniques.

Abstract: A method for improving the thermal barrier properties of silicone resin/glass fiber composites. Composites comprising a layer of polysiloxane (silicone resin) matrix with a glass or quartz fiber reinforcement embedded in such matrix and an organic polymeric layer were subjected to multi-cycle heat treatment, preferably with quartz lamps. The polysiloxane layer was pre-coated with graphite dispersion in order to ensure acceptable optical receptivity of the polysiloxane layer. As a result, the silicone resin was converted into a thick porous layer of silicone dioxide, the latter having the improved thermal barrier properties.
