Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system receive first original medical data associated with a first patient; apply natural language processing and medical ontologies to the first original medical data associated with the first patient to generate first semantically annotated medical data associated with the first patient; and apply a reasoning engine to the first semantically annotated medical data to generate a first instance of a first disease-specific semantic model, comprising assigning a value to an attribute in the first disease-specific semantic model.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system: evaluate a first instance of a first disease-specific semantic model against a plurality of criteria associated with a first clinical trial, comprising calculating a semantic distance between the first instance of the first disease-specific semantic model and the plurality of criteria associated with the first clinical trial; and determine, based on the evaluation, whether the first instance of the first disease-specific semantic model satisfies the plurality of criteria associated with the first clinical trial.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system are applied to a first instance of a first disease-specific semantic model. The method and system: receive a first request; process the first instance of the first disease-specific semantic model based on the first request to generate a first processed instance of the first disease-specific semantic model; and provide the first processed instance of the first disease-specific semantic model as output.

Abstract: Disclosed is a corner head drywall tool comprising a plurality of roller wings, each with a plurality of face rollers. Also disclosed are alignment rollers intersecting and overlapping the pivot axis of the roller wings. The device may further comprise shafts having an end pivotably attached to each roller wing; wherein each shaft is fitted to slide within a spring tube having a spring therein biasing the shaft toward the associated roller wing. Each spring tube optionally having a median portion pivotably attached to a support block. The device may comprise an adjustment system to adjust the spacing between the ends of the spring tubes opposite the roller wings. The drywall tool may be arranged wherein the adjustment comprises: an adjustment wheel fixed to rotate relative to the support block. Wherein the adjustment wheel rotates one or each spring tube about the relative pivot attachment to the support block.

Abstract: A method for determining an insurance premium cost to insure a vehicle. A wireless communication link exists between a vehicle telematics system of the vehicle and a control center remote from the vehicle. The control center has a data center including a database server and a protocol gateway exchanging data with the server, and a web portal connected to the data center. Driver metrics data associated with the vehicle and/or the driver are communicated by a vehicle telematics system to the data center and are analyzed to create a driver profile. The driver profile is shared with at least one insurance carrier who can assign a rating to the profile and, thereby, determines an insurance premium cost to insure the vehicle, which is sent to an owner or a driver of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method for warning at least one contact person associated with a vehicle that the vehicle is within a geographical warning zone includes initiating and establishing a wireless communication link between a vehicle telematics system of the vehicle and a control system remote from the vehicle. The control system includes a weather identification system, a map database, and a data processing system operable to communicate with the weather identification system and the map database though a communication link. A dangerous weather condition is detected and a geographic area within which the dangerous weather condition is identified. The geographic area is communicated to the data processing system. The geographic area interfaces with the map database to define a geographic warning zone. The vehicle is located within the geographic warning zone and a warning message is communicated to the person associated with the vehicle regarding the vehicle being in the warning zone.

Abstract: The devices sole function is to aid the shoelace once tied in obtaining its ultimate purpose of securing the shoe about the foot. This is done by the device being placed on both sides of the knot and fastening the excess lace in a manner to alleviate slippage of the knot, the bow and the excess lace.

Abstract: A carbon-carbon structure useful for fabricating a nosetip for a reentry vehicle, which consists essentially of a central core, a plurality of layers of woven carbon fabric circumferentially wrapped around the core, and a carbon binder, wherein the core consists essentially of a plurality of longitudinally oriented carbon fibers.
