Abstract: An example method is described. The method includes receiving, by a computing system, data indicative of a call into an interactive voice response (IVR) system from a user device and determining, by the computing system and based on the data, a set of actions performed by the user device within the IVR system and a corresponding set of results performed by the IVR system during the call. Additionally, the method includes converting, by the computing system, the set of actions and the corresponding set of results into a sequence of code pairs using a dictionary established based on training data, determining, by the computing system, an activity pattern during the call based on the sequence of code pairs; and calculating, by the computing system, a probability that the call is fraudulent based on the activity pattern during the call.

Abstract: Composition and methods to prevent, inhibit or treat one or more symptoms of cystic fibrosis are provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to cells, tissues, organs, and/or animals having one or more modified genes for enhanced xenograft survival and/or tolerance. In addition, the present disclosure relates to methods of making and using the cells, tissues, organs, and/or animals having one or more of the modified genes.

Abstract: The magnetic resonance member 1 is a member that is arranged in a measurement target AC physical field, and in which a quantum operation can be performed in a specific quantum system. The coil 2 and the high frequency power supply 3 apply a magnetic field of a microwave to the magnetic resonance member 1. The irradiating device 4 irradiates the magnetic resonance member 1 with light, and the detecting device 5 detects from the magnetic resonance member 1 a physical phenomenon corresponding to the measurement target AC physical field. Further, the measurement control unit 21 performs the DC physical field measurement sequence a predetermined plural times, and in each of the plural times of the DC physical field measurement sequence, determines a detection value of the physical phenomenon detected by the detecting device 5.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for segmenting television audience data are disclosed. The methods include receiving program level viewing data for one or more individuals. The methods also include creating one or more segments for the one or more individuals based upon the program level viewing data. The methods further include combining the one or more segments into one or more groups by applying a grouping function and performing analysis on the one or more groups, and generating reports based upon the analysis.

Abstract: Described are packaged, sterile medical graft products containing controlled levels of a growth factor such as Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF-2). Also described are methods of manufacturing medical graft products wherein processing, including sterilization, is controlled and monitored to provide medical graft products having modulated, known levels of a extracellular matrix factor, such as a growth factor, e.g. FGF-2. Preferred graft materials are extracellular matrix materials isolated from human or animal donors, particularly submucosa-containing extracellular matrix materials. Further described are ECM compositions that are or are useful for preparing gels, and related methods for preparation and use.

Abstract: Described are devices, methods, and systems for grafting tissues or organs that are exposed to bacterial or mammalian enzymes that degrade collagenous materials. Illustrative medical grafts are processed by contacting a collagenous extracellular matrix (ECM) material with a mono-carboxylic acid having from four to about twelve carbon atoms, or mixtures of two or more such acids.

Abstract: A system for making a precise incision and circular hole in a vessel wall, such as the aorta, that eliminates lateral side notches from the aortotomy. In one aspect, the system includes a surgical knife or lancet having a blade surrounded by a retractable shield. In one aspect, the system includes a tissue punch having a rotating circumferential edge for receiving a parabolic-shaped anvil having an anvil cutting edge. The anvil is placed through an incision made by a knife and actuated to produce a hole in the vessel wall.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method, system, and logic for processing pixel data. A first and second logic units each receive line work data and control data for pixels on a sheet from at least one object. The control data for one pixel indicates whether to use the line work data for the pixel or contone data for the pixel. Multiple objects may provide line work data and control data for a same pixel. The first and second logic units output control data indicating to use contone data or line work data for the pixel. A third logic unit receives the line work and control data outputted from the first and second logic units. The third logic unit then outputs control data indicating to use the contone data or line work data for the pixel.
