Abstract: The disclosed invention relates to a method for identifying biomarkers for the stratification of hypertensive patients among different hypertension diseases: endocrine forms of hypertension and primary hypertension. The method is a machine-learning based method using one trained classifier on a predefined input dataset to rank several combinations of omics biomarkers (miRNA, steroids, metanephrines, small metabolites) on the basis of the computation of at least one evaluation parameter. A combination of biomarkers is selected to stratify the hypertensive patient among said plurality of hypertension diseases. Also, the disclosed invention relates to a method for stratifying hypertensive patients, such as hypertensive patients with endocrine forms of hypertension (EHT).

Further the client device identifies a context of the call, identifies a subset of stored private data associated with the context of the call; and in parallel with the call, provides the subset of the stored private data, via a data radio, to a data service.

Abstract: A customer service system that includes a customer device associated with a customer, an agent device associated with an agent, and a monitoring system. The monitoring system includes a memory that stores instructions and a processor that executes the instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the monitoring system to monitor a conversation between the customer device and the agent device to identify a context of the conversation. Moreover, the instructions cause the monitoring system to identify a disclosure notice based at least part on the context of the conversation, in which the disclosure notice comprises an indication of a disclosure to be read in light of the context of the conversation.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods and products for the identification of a clinically significant immune response in subjects treated with a therapeutic protein.

Abstract: An electronic device receives operational data indicative of an operational characteristic of a vehicle from a sensor of the electronic device, a sensor of the vehicle, and/or images/videos captured by a camera. The electronic device determines that the vehicle has had a potential incident and a likelihood that the potential incident has actually occurred based on analysis of the operational data. The electronic device also receives risk management data associated with the vehicle from a database, and determines a severity level for the potential incident based on the operational data and the risk management data. The electronic device then sends a notification indicative of the potential incident based on the likelihood that the potential incident has actually occurred and the severity level for the potential incident to a third-party remote system (e.g., of a towing service, an emergency service, or both) to request assistance.

Abstract: A computing device establishes communication with a financial institution communication device, and receives an instruction for a user to perform an action to authenticate the user. The action includes providing user-provided data indicative of a location. The computing device determines first location information based on the user-provided data. The computing device also determines second location information using a location sensor. The computing device authenticates the used based on determining that the first location information correlates to the second location information.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for dynamic routing of an automated telephony system. The automated telephony system facilitates functions desired by a caller, via an automated call with the caller. A machine-learning analysis system extracts data from the automated call, performs machine-learning via the extracted data to identify a likely motivation of the caller associated with the automated call, and provides the likely motivation to the automated telephony system. The automated telephony system then receive the likely motivation from the machine-learning analysis system and dynamically routes the automated call based upon the likely motivation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of forming a crystalline or polycrystalline layer of an organic-inorganic metal halide perovskite material comprising a three-dimensional crystal structure represented by the formula AMX3, in which A represents an organic cation or a mixture of two or more different cations, at least one of which is an organic cation, M represents a divalent metal cation or a mixture of two or more different divalent metal cations, and X represents halide anions which are the same or different, the method comprising the steps of: (i) forming a first layer on the surface of a substrate, the first layer comprising an organic-inorganic metal halide perovskite material having a planar, layered two-dimensional crystal structure (ii) reacting the first layer with one or more organic halides to form the crystalline or polycrystalline layer comprising an organic-inorganic metal halide perovskite material having the formula AMX3.

Abstract: Disclosed are cylindrical-coordinate 3D printers and methods of 3D printing. In one embodiment, the cylindrical-coordinate 3D printer can comprise a printbed, a rotatable printbed support assembly, a vertically translatable base plate supporting the printbed support assembly, four rail segments aligned radially with the printbed support assembly, and four gantry carriers configured to carry or support four printheads. The gantry carriers can be moveable along the rail segments. The four gantry carriers can be moved simultaneously.

Abstract: A call center data transfer system includes one or more processors that are configured to receive call data related to information provided by a caller during a first portion of a call with a first customer service representative. The one or more processors are also configured to assign an identifier to the call in response to receipt of an indication that the call should be transferred from the first customer service representative, associate the identifier with the call data in one or more databases, receive the identifier as an input during a second portion of the call with a second customer service representative, and use the identifier to retrieve the call data from the one or more databases. The one or more processors are further configured to display the call data via a display for visualization by the second customer service representative.
