  • Publication number: 20240112753
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for generating a target-variant-reference panel comprising a target-variant position with target-variant indicators or using the target-variant-reference panel to impute a genotype call for the corresponding target variant. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems generate an initial reference panel including a variety of phased genomic samples of different haplotypes. The disclosed systems further add a target-variant position to the initial reference panel to indicate a presence or absence of a target variant, thereby creating a target-variant-reference panel comprising a target-variant position with target-variant indicators.

  • Publication number: 20240021027
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a system configured to generate and provide timely vehicle event information for a fleet of vehicles including at least a first vehicle. Individual vehicles detect vehicle events and transmit related information to a remote computing server. The remote computing server determines whether the detected vehicles events are relevant to add to a set of vehicle events scenarios. For example, if a particular vehicle event is duplicative of a previous vehicle event, if may not need to be added. The newest vehicles events may be reported at certain intervals, in particular if they are indicative of a trend.

  • Publication number: 20240021081
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a system that generates data describing physical surroundings of vehicles during operation. Individual vehicles carry sensors configured to generate output signals conveying information related to one or both of the physical surroundings of the vehicles and/or the operation of the vehicles. Based on the generated output signals, the physical surroundings in which the first vehicle is operating are derived, such as, for example, the speeds of different nearby vehicles, and their distances to each other.

  • Patent number: 11864276
    Abstract: An illustrative embodiment disclosed herein is a non-transitory computer readable medium. In some embodiments, the medium includes instructions for providing a mobile user monitoring solution that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to capture a first message transmitted over a packet forwarding control protocol (PFCP) interface, extract a permanent ID and a first user plane tunnel endpoint identifier (TEID) from the first message, store the permanent ID and the first user plane TEID in a PFCP protocol data unit (PDU) session record, store the permanent ID in a session details record, capture a second message transmitted over a user plane interface after the first message is transmitted, extract a second user plane TEID from the second message, wherein the second user plane TEID matches the first user plane TEID, and retrieve the session details record using the second user plane TEID.

  • Patent number: 11854313
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a distributed data center that includes resources carried by a fleet of vehicles. The system includes sensors configured to generate output signals conveying information related to the vehicles. The system may detect vehicle events based on the information conveyed by the output signals. The system includes a remote computing server configured to present a user interface to a user. Through the user interface, the user may query information from one or more vehicles in the fleet. The distributed query is transmitted to individual vehicles, and results are locally processed in accordance with response constraints and subsequently transmitted back to the remote computing server for presentation to the user.

  • Publication number: 20230338095
    Abstract: The invention relates to a viewing system for use in a surgical environment. Various real object detection devices detect locations of real objects in a real environment, such as a patient and body part of patient, medical staff, robots, a cutting tool on a robot, implant transferred by robot into body part, surgical tools, and disposable items. A map generator generates a map that forms a digital representation or a digital twin of the real environment. Various guiding modules including a room setup module, an anatomy registration module, a surgical planning module, and a surgical execution module make use of the digital representation to guide virtual or real objects based on the digital representation.

  • Patent number: 11744313
    Abstract: A protective helmet including a visor attached to the external sides of the helmet shell. The shell includes substantially flat mount surfaces on each side which correspond with substantially flat portions on the respective ends of the visor. A fastener hole on the shell aligns with an access hole on the visor so that the two elements can be releasably fastened. The access hole provides space for a fastener to protrude out from the surface of the shell, allowing the visor to sit flush against the shell when fastened together. The helmet may include chin straps which are attached to the inner surface of the shell. The helmet may also include a catch strip on the front of the visor which protrudes from the visor such that it can prevent a cloth helmet cover (sometimes used in games such as Roller Derby) from easily sliding off the helmet.
