Abstract: Methods and systems for pre-processing immunocytochemistry images for machine learning are provided. The pre-processing method includes receiving paired positive and negative multi-protein images and segmenting stains of the paired multi-protein images. The method also includes labelling each image pixel corresponding to a cell of the paired multi-protein images and translating image pixel information of the labelled image pixels to tabular form to generate a table of cell coordinates and geometrical characteristics for each of the paired multi-protein images. The method further includes generating two cell-paired tables for each of the paired multi-protein images based on Euclidean distance-based pairing prior to input for the machine learning, where the Euclidean distance-based pairing is based on the cell coordinates in the table of cell coordinates and geometrical characteristics for each of the paired multi-protein images.

Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for classifying text strings, augmenting text strings, and identifying classified text strings for intelligent autofill are provided. A fact store may be populated with facts from a plurality of data sources associated with a user account. The fact store may comprise unstructured data, semi-structured data, and structured data. An intent type associated with a text string displayed by a local computing device may be determined. The text string may comprise form data or freeform data. A context associated with the local computing device may also be determined. Based on the intent type and the context, a text string corresponding to a fact in the fact store may be identified for surfacing on the local computing device.

Abstract: Described herein is a shell action browser extension that executes independent of browser when the browser has been terminated. The shell action browser extension includes a communications component that receives notice that the browser is terminating. The shell action browser extension further comprises a transition component that, in response to the received notice, latches onto an operating system as a process independent of the browser. The shell action browser further comprises a content component that receives information from a website/web-service and, in response to receiving the information, based on the received information, provides notification(s) via the operating system.

Abstract: A traffic director system and method having a software-based load balancer which can be used to deliver a fast, reliable, scalable, and secure platform for load-balancing traffic to back-end origin servers, such as web servers, application servers, or other resource servers. Traffic director instances of the traffic director are configured to receive and communicate requests, from clients to origin servers or pools of origin servers. The traffic director has an administration console which provides a graphic user interface (GUI) for use by an administrator in reviewing and configuring different configurable objects of the traffic director. The GUI includes a “never-get-lost” navigation model including navigation option sections and a navigation tree section. Each of the navigation options of the GUI of the traffic director system is associated with content for display within the navigation tree section of the GUI.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for use with a load balancer or traffic director, and administration thereof, wherein the traffic director is provided as a software-based load balancer that can be used to deliver a fast, reliable, scalable, and secure platform for load-balancing Internet and other traffic to back-end origin servers, such as web servers, application servers, or other resource servers. In accordance with an embodiment, the system comprises a traffic director having one or more traffic director instances, which is configured to receive and communicate requests, from clients, to origin servers having one or more pools of servers, and an administration console user interface or GUI for use by a user/administrator in reviewing and configuring different configurable objects of the traffic director, wherein the GUI includes one or more of a “never-get-lost” navigation model, or property sheets.

Abstract: A system and method for donations using online interactive games with players using social networks. Users play games wherein winning results in others donating to their selected recipient, such as a cause, charity, school, etc. A database maintains user information, recipient information, and tracks donation credits. Users play games, donate to recipients, and have players donate to their selected recipients. The system and method can automatically match users as teammates, competitors, and tournament members. The system and method facilitate game play, collection of funds, and payment of collected funds to selected recipients. The funds benefit recipients, and new supporters are identified to the recipients.

Abstract: A high velocity stream of gas comprising of either the carrier gas or one or more film forming or removing components is shot through a shooting means such as a nozzle or orifice in the form of a high speed stream of gas in a chemical vapor deposition growth chamber or within an attachment receiving reaction gases from such a chamber. This gas or mixture of gases entrains all of the adjacent gases within the vicinity of the shooting nozzle or orifice and is subsequently swept through a diffusion tube. The diffusion tube compresses and exhausts the gas mixture at a pressure sufficient to drive the combined gas mixture through a heat exchanger and finally back into the growth chamber. The gases within the growth chamber are provided for entrainment downstream to a heated base or substrate which is being coated with a thin film or epitaxial layer of film forming components contained in a carrier gas.
