Abstract: The present invention relates to a clinical support system and a corresponding clinical support method. The system comprises a processor and a computer-readable storage medium, wherein the computer-readable storage medium contains instructions for execution by the processor, wherein the instructions cause the processor to perform the steps of obtaining a health score curve over time of a patient, for whom a recommendation for a moment of discharge from a medical facility shall be provided, obtaining a reference curve to the health score curve, wherein said reference curve indicates a patient stabilization over time, computing a difference between the health score curve and said reference curve, and computing a recommended moment of discharge from the medical facility based on the difference between said health score curve and said reference curve. Further, the present invention relates to a computer-readable non-transitory storage medium and a computer program.

Abstract: The invention concerns a system, method, apparatus, and computer readable medium for promoting a healthier life style of a subject. The method includes the steps of detecting a triggering event relating to a subject, reviewing a user profile associated with the subject which includes information relating to the subject, searching a text fragment database including a collection of text fragments and selecting appropriate text fragments based in part on the specific user profile of the particular subject, and sending the text fragments selected to a coach for forwarding to the subject, review, or amendment.

Abstract: A system for analyzing an action is disclosed. An action input unit (1) is arranged for enabling a user (10) to indicate a proposed action in respect of a subject. A status unit (2) is arranged for retrieving status information relating to a status of the subject from a data record. A knowledge unit (3) is arranged for retrieving a representation of knowledge from a knowledge base (12), wherein the knowledge relates possible statuses with possible actions. A matching unit (4) is arranged for matching the action and the status information with the knowledge, to obtain a representation of relevant knowledge in support of the action. An explanation output unit (5) is arranged for generating an explanation comprising at least one representation of relevant knowledge obtained by the matching unit (4).

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for arranging a set of media items based on user profiles are disclosed. The apparatus includes a processor in communication with user identification ports and a plurality of surfaces for displaying media items. The processor in accordance with the invention receives a user identifier from one of the user identification ports, retrieves a user profile associated with the user identifier, calculates a preference vector for the media items within the set based on the user profile, and directs the plurality of surfaces to change an arrangement of the display of the set of media items from a first configuration to a second configuration based on the preference vector. The processor thereby changes which of the first set of media items is displayed on at least one of the plurality of surfaces.

Abstract: A method of aligning a song with lyrics of the song which comprises the steps of aligning each lyrics fragment of a group of similar lyrics fragments (C) in the lyrics of the song with an audio fragment of a group of similar audio fragments (A4) of the song and aligning each lyrics fragment of a further group of similar lyrics fragments (V2) in the lyrics of the song with an audio fragment of a further group of similar audio fragments (A2) of the song. The method can be performed by an electronic device, possibly enabled by a computer program product. A mapping determined with the method can be transmitted and received by means of a signal and/or stored in a database.
