Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product generate precomputed explanation scores in AI systems. The method includes obtaining a set of labeled transactions comprising input features and corresponding output labels generated by a machine learning (ML) model and generating an explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) module. The generating includes clustering the labeled transactions based on the input features, scoring homogeneity of the clustered transactions based on the corresponding output labels, and selecting at least one cluster from the clustered transactions based on the homogeneity scoring. The generating further includes obtaining, by an explainability model, explainability scores for transactions in the at least one cluster, generating a unified explainability score for the at least one cluster based on the explainability scores, and storing the unified explainability score in a set of precomputed explanations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a sterile liquid pharmaceutical composition suitable for administration by inhalation comprising ensifentrine particles, wherein the process comprises: (a) heating ensifentrine particles at a temperature of from 100° C. to 220° C. to obtain sterile ensifentrine particles; and (b) combining the sterile ensifentrine particles with a sterile liquid vehicle to produce the sterile liquid pharmaceutical composition suitable for administration by inhalation. A process for producing an ampule comprising the sterile liquid pharmaceutical composition is also described.

Abstract: A system and method of inspecting a thickness of metal on an electroformed component. The system capable of scanning the electroformed component with a sensor. The system including a computer for generating a scan data set indicative of the thickness of the metal on the electroformed component. A controller for instructing an anode to deposit additional metal on the electroformed component where the thickness is less than a target thickness.

Abstract: The present specification discloses a high speed scanning system for scanning cargo carried by rail. The system uses of a two-dimensional X-ray sensor array with, in one embodiment, a cone-beam X-ray geometry. The pulse rate of X-ray source is modulated based on the speed of the moving cargo to allow a distance travelled by the cargo between X-ray pulses to be equal to the width of the detector, for a single energy source, and to half the width of the detector for a dual energy source. This ensures precise timing between the X-ray exposure and the speed of the passing object, and thus accurate scanning of cargo even at high speeds.

Abstract: A replacement heart valve prosthesis is loaded onto a balloon mounted onto a balloon shaft of a catheter system. The balloon shaft is rotatably engaged with an actuator on the handle of the catheter system. Rotation of the actuator by a first amount in a first direction permits rotation of the heart valve prosthesis by a known amount during the procedure so that alignment of the commissures of the replacement valve with the commissures of the existing valve can be predictably achieved.

Abstract: The present specification discloses a covet mobile inspection vehicle with a backscatter X-ray scanning system that has an X-ray source and detectors for obtaining a radiographic image of an object outside the vehicle. The systems preferably include at least one sensor for determining a distance front at least one of the detectors to points on the surface of the object being scanned, a processor for processing the obtained radiographic image by using the determined distance of the object to obtain an atomic number of each material contained in the object, and one or more sensors to obtain surveillance data from a predefined area surrounding the vehicle.
