Abstract: A method and system for automatically analyzing graphics processing unit (“GPU”) test results are disclosed. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention sets forth a method, which includes the steps of identifying the GPU test results associated with a first register type, creating a template document associated with the same first register type, wherein the template document is pre-configured to store and operate on the GPU test results of the first register type, filling the GPU test results in the template document, aggregating the GPU test results associated with the first register type to establish a common output, and determining a suitable register value from a passing range of register values based on the common output without human intervention.

Abstract: A patting mechanism includes a support base for support a user, a driving device mounted to the support base and having a pushing unit, and a patting device having a rod pivotally connected with the support base, a patting member fixedly connected with the rod, and an elastic member connected between the support base and the rod. Thus, the rod is pushed to a preloaded position when the pushing unit is activated, and the rod is pulled by the elastic member to a patting position when the pushing unit is stopped working, such that the patting member is driven by the rod to pat on the user's back muscle repeatedly to relieve muscle soreness or help the user spit out phlegm.

Abstract: A weight trainer with a load detection system includes a frame, a load detecting device, and a display device. The frame has a transmission device, a weight allocating device, and a stand. The transmission device is disposed on one side of the frame. The weight allocating device is connected to the transmission device and can undergo displacement in the vertical direction of the stand. The load detecting device is disposed beneath the weight allocating device. The load detecting device includes a sensor, a base, and a platform. The sensor is abuttingly disposed between the base and the platform. The display device is electrically connected to the load detecting device. Accordingly, the weight trainer with a load detection system is effective in detecting a weight change precisely, enabling a user taking fitness exercise to gain access to information thereof in real time, and quantifying the information.

Abstract: A system and method is described by which so-called standard angiographic views can be generated using a 3-or 4-D reconstructed image of the object of interest. One preferred example is the reconstruction of coronary angiograms from rotational angiography sequences. Once the 3D image is created, it can be forward projected into the user-defined “standard” views for live presentation during the procedure. It is anticipated that these standard views, which more closely mimic what a physician is accustomed to see, will be more readily accepted by the interventional community.

Abstract: A mediation server (30) includes a second request receiving unit (35) that receives first store information for identifying a store visited by a user as a visited store and second store information for identifying a designated store designated as a place to purchase an item recognized by the user at the visited store from a mobile terminal (10) of the user, a response information generating unit (36) that compares the first and second store information and determines whether the visited store and the designated store match, and generates bargaining information indicating a specified service offered for the item by the visited store when the two stores do not match, and a response information transmission unit (37) that transmits the generated bargaining information to the mobile terminal (10).

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing content to a user at an account accessing device is described A first user input may be received at a first account processing device. A type of channel between the user and the account accessing device, a temporal parameter associated with the first access, user used financial entity services associated with at least one account of the user and current allowable actions on the first account by the user may be determined. A second user input may be received indicating an action, of the current allowable actions, of the user at the first account accessing device. Content for output to the user upon another occurrence of the user accessing the first account accessing device may be determined. The content may be based upon at least one behavioral characteristic of the user and may be an offer for at least one user unused financial entity service.

Abstract: A method for determining an optimal trajectory for 3-dimensional rotational X-ray coronary angiography for a C-arm X-ray system that has at least two degrees of freedom, where the C-arm X-ray system is defined by a rotational movement of the C-arm expressed in a left/right coronary artery oblique angle, and a roll motion of the C-arm expressed in a caudal/cranial angle. The method includes generating of a 3-dimensional representation of a center-line of a body vessel in a region of interest. generating at least one optimal view map. Further, an optimal trajectory for the X-ray system within the optimal view map is determined, where an optimal trajectory is at least determined by movements of the C-arm within its two degrees of freedom allowing image projections with minimal foreshortening and/or overlap while minimizing an exposure to X-rays.

Abstract: A corner joint system for fastening two perpendicular furniture panels to form a box corner includes first and second male connector rails and a female connector rail. The male connector rails each include a base having a longitudinal spline extending inwardly from an inner surface. The male connector rails are secured in adjacent relation to adjacent corner surfaces of the furniture panels such that the respective splines are arranged in adjacent perpendicular relation. The female connector rail includes a main body portion having an upper end and a lower end, and two perpendicular, longitudinal, spline channels extending upwardly through the main body portion from the lower end to the upper end. The spline channels of the female connector rail are slidably received in interfitting relation over the adjacent splines of the male connector rails to cooperatively capture the splines and interlock the rails, forming a rigid, right angle box corner.
