  • Patent number: 12008584
    Abstract: There is a need for more effective and efficient anomaly detection. This need can be addressed by, for example, solutions for performing/executing graph convolutional anomaly detection. In one example, a method includes identifying related graph database input data associated with a predictive entity; generating related graph feature data for the predictive entity; generating, based on the related graph feature data and using a graph convolutional neural network model, an anomaly detection score for the predictive entity, wherein at least a portion of the graph convolutional neural network model is trained using confirmation feedback data; performing an anomaly confirmation to generate the confirmation feedback data object for the predictive entity, and integrating the confirmation feedback data object for the predictive entity into the confirmation feedback data associated with the graph convolutional anomaly detection.

  • Patent number: 9308073
    Abstract: An intravascular filter assembly has an expanded state for capturing thrombi in a patient's blood vessel and a collapsed state for removal from the patient's blood vessel. The filter assembly includes a fixed hub defining a tubular portion, a plurality of struts extending from a first axial side of the tubular portion of the fixed hub, and an axially movable hub. The struts have an expanded configuration and a collapsed configuration. The axially movable hub has a first position radially surrounding at least an axial portion of the tubular portion and a second position axially spaced apart from the fixed hub along the struts. The struts are in the collapsed configuration when the movable hub is in the second position. A first coupling member extends from the first axial side from the movable hub; and a second coupling member extends from a second axial side opposite the first axial side.
