  • Publication number: 20200394719
    Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to manipulating and visualizing database objects that represent layers and parts of layers in insurance or other risk transfer programs. Disclosed is graphically creating placement objects, maintaining a database of objects that can be linked in trees, with policy objects linked to respective proposal objects, and coverage objects linked to the proposal objects and the policy objects. A GUI represents a placement using objects, with metadata that describes objects' statuses, with groups of objects properly nested and linked in the database of objects. User selection of a displayed first object and mode control initiates creation of second objects linked to the first object and, opening of a panel that scales the selected first object to fit the panel and allows the user to add nested second objects, by drawing an added object or entering metadata for the added object, with consistent metadata constrained with the nesting.

  • Patent number: 10781267
    Abstract: Provided herein, in one aspect, are antibodies that immunospecifically bind to a human KIT antigen comprising the fourth and/or fifth extracellular Ig-like domains (that is, D4 and/or D5 domains), polynucleotides comprising nucleotide sequences encoding such antibodies, and expression vectors and host cells for producing such antibodies. The antibodies can inhibit KIT activity, such as ligand-induced receptor phosphorylation. Also provided herein are kits and pharmaceutical compositions comprising antibodies that specifically bind to a KIT antigen, as well as methods of treating or managing a KIT-associated disorder or disease and methods of diagnosing a KIT-associated disorder or disease using the antibodies described herein.

  • Publication number: 20200219201
    Abstract: The technology disclosed provides systems and methods that display database objects representing entities, placement channels and workflow status in an insurance or other risk transfer program. Specially coded distribution trees and graphs of nodes represent the overall flow and, optionally, status of placement workflows. Node and edge data generated for display depicts multiple risk placements on behalf of at least one requesting party through intermediaries to responding parties. Line width of edges represents calculated relative size of placements, and pattern, style, and color of edges can depict statuses of the risk placements. Another geo-coded map display also depicts as nodes a requesting party, intermediaries and responding parties, connected by edges that represent communication channels.

  • Patent number: 10281324
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for measuring an ambient light level in a volume that is lighted by a pulsating light source. A first light sensor is configured to generate a first signal based on an amount of light detected in the volume. A bypass switch is configured to bypass the first light sensor at a first point in time when the light source is on and to not bypass the first light sensor at a second point in time when the light source is off. A second sensor is configured to generate a second signal based on an environment in the volume, and a difference circuit is configured to determine a difference magnitude between the second signal and the first signal to generate an ambient light signal.
