Abstract: In the disclosed systems and methods for characterizing a cancer condition of a tissue in a subject, a computer system inputs information into an ensemble model. The information includes, for each respective class of radiomics features in a plurality of classes of radiomics features, a corresponding value for each respective radiomic feature in a corresponding plurality of radiomics features of the respective class of radiomics features obtained from a medical imaging dataset. The ensemble model comprises a plurality of component models. The computer system obtains as output from each respective component model in the plurality of component models a corresponding component prediction for the cancer condition, thereby obtaining a plurality of component predictions for the cancer condition. The computer system combines the plurality of component predictions to obtain as output of the ensemble model a characterization of the cancer condition.

Abstract: In the disclosed systems and methods for categorizing medical data, a computer system obtains, in electronic form, a plurality of medical records. Each medical record includes corresponding medical data from a respective medical evaluation and corresponding metadata comprising a plurality of attributes about the respective medical evaluation. Each respective attribute comprises a corresponding string of text. The computer system determines, for each respective pair of medical records consisting of a first medical record and a second medical record, a corresponding pairwise similarity between, for each respective attribute in a set of attributes, the corresponding string of text for the first medical record and the corresponding string of text for the second medical record. The computer system identifies a first subset of the plurality of medical records. Each respective medical record in the first subset is connected to each other through pairwise similarities that each satisfies a similarity threshold.

Abstract: A beverage dispensing machine (e.g., coffee maker) has a cooling unit. The cooling unit includes a thermal mass. The cooling unit is operable to reduce a temperature of at least a portion of the thermal mass. The cooling unit also includes a passageway within which a beverage flows, the passageway being in thermal communication with the thermal mass that cools the beverage as it flows within the passageway to chill the beverage before it is dispensed.

Abstract: A portable cooler container is provided, with a payload chamber for one or more temperature sensitive or perishable goods. A heating or cooling unit is disposed in the payload chamber. The cooling unit includes a body of heat regulating material (e.g., PCM) and electronics (e.g., a controller, memory, a GPS sensor, parameter sensor(s), visual indicators, power storage elements and/or a wireless communication system) to sense information of the payload, heating or cooling module or portable cooler container and transmit said information to a remote electronic device or cloud-based data storage system.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein relate to a sensor that includes a first a first polymer-luminescent sensing compound configured to produce a first luminescent signal in the presence of a first analyte and a second polymer-luminescent sensing compound configured to produce a second luminescent signal in the presence of a second analyte. The second luminescent signal can have a luminescent lifetime that is at least 1.1 times greater than a luminescent lifetime of the first luminescent signal. Such temporally differences in signal can be used to deconvolute the first luminescent signal from the second luminescent signal even when, for example, the first luminescent signal and the second luminescent signal have the same or a similar emission spectrum.

Abstract: A portable cooler container is provided. The temperature control system cools a chamber of the container to transport temperature sensitive contents via the container. An electronic display screen on one of the lid and the container body selectively displays an electronic shipping label for the portable cooler container.

Abstract: An oral appliance device that selectively engages upper teeth and lower teeth within a human mouth includes an upper appliance member, a lower appliance member, and a first vertical shim. The upper appliance member selectively engages the upper teeth. The lower appliance member selectively engages the lower teeth. The appliance members are movable relative to one another between an open position and a closed position. The first vertical shim is removably secured to one of the appliance members. The first vertical shim has a first shim height so that a teeth spacing between the upper teeth and the lower teeth is maintained when the appliance members are in the closed position. The teeth spacing is at least as great as the first shim height. The oral appliance device can further include a second vertical shim that is alternatively, removably secured to one of the appliance members. The second vertical shim has a second shim height that is different than the first shim height.

Abstract: A portable container has a payload chamber for holding medicines, vaccines, biological samples or other medical goods and a lid operable to access the payload chamber. The portable container also has an electronic system with one or more power storage devices, circuitry that wirelessly communicates via a cell radio with a cloud-based data storage system or a remote electronic device, and an electronic display screen. The electronic system can a) automatically switch sender and recipient information on the electronic display screen to facilitate return of the portable container to the sender or b) automatically contact a parcel carrier to alert the parcel carrier that the portable container is ready for pickup.

Abstract: A roll end air fitting adapter is couplable to an end of a cylindrical roll. The adapter includes an inner ring and outer ring defining a central opening concentric with a roll axis, an annular air channel extending about the roll axis, and a plurality of air passages leading from the air channel through the inner ring and/or the outer ring to peripheral outlet openings in an outer circumferential surface(s) of the inner ring and/or the outer ring. A compliant sleeve is disposed along the roll axis with the peripheral outlet openings between the end of the compliant sleeve and the outer ring so that the compliant sleeve overlaps the peripheral outlet openings. Supplying air to the adapter ring by the air source to force air through the air channel and the peripheral outlet openings facilitates sliding the compliant sleeve onto the cylindrical roll.
