Abstract: Indexing a data corpus to a set of multidimensional points, including: generating a set of points in a multidimensional space; identifying, for each sample in a plurality of samples in a data corpus, a nearest point in the set of points; and generating an index mapping each sample with the nearest point in the set of points.

Abstract: In a method for masking one or more regions surrounding an anatomical region of interest for each of one or more MRI images obtained from MRI imaging data, the one or more regions surrounding the anatomical region of interest are masked based on control data determined for identifying the anatomical region of interest in the MRI imaging data. The MRI imaging data may be obtained during an MRI exam of a patient for a measurement volume including the anatomical region of interest. The anatomical region of interest may be ascertained before performing the MRI exam.

Abstract: Shared memory access in a distributed system, including: receiving a memory access request associated with a time value; determining, based on the time value, an entry in a translation lookaside buffer (TLB); and determining, based on the entry, whether to allow the memory access request.

Abstract: Systems for joint arthroplasty include prostheses which are secured to bone with sliding anchors. Examples include unicondylar and bicondylar knee prostheses for hemi-arthroplasty and total arthroplasty. Instruments guide the anchors into proper engagement with the prosthetic components. Methods of using the prostheses and instruments are disclosed.
