Abstract: A user provides a description of a neural network to a visualization tool. The visualization tool displays a user interface that includes a visual of the neural network based on the description. If the user interacts with a node or connection, for example by placing a cursor on the node/connection in the user interface, the user interface displays information associated with the node/connection. If the user selects a node of a layer, the neural network is applied to an input that corresponds to the selection and the user interface displays the propagation of the input through the neural network. Additionally, the user interface displays results from applying the neural network to the input.

Abstract: The problem of storing a ball mount when not engaged in a receiver hitch opening is solved by a ball mount storage bracket. A ball mount storage bracket can attach around the neck of a receiver hitch and be oriented towards or away from the vehicle. The shank of the ball mount can be seated in the storage bracket and secured with the same pin and bolt that holds the ball mount in the receiver hitch. The storage bracket can be secured with a single U-bolt or similar type of connector, which makes it useful even if the rest of the receiver hitch is inaccessible.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of inhibiting the effects of platelet activating factor (PAF). For instance, a disease or condition mediated by PAF (particularly inflammation) can be treated or platelet aggregation can be inhibited. The invention also provides a method of inhibiting the production and/or release of interleukin 8 (IL-8) by cells. The effects of PAF and the production and/or release of IL-8 are inhibited according to the invention by a compound of the formula: wherein R1 and R2 are defined in the application, or a physiologically-acceptable salt thereof. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds.
