Abstract: A humidification system can include a heater base, a chamber, and a breathing circuit. The heater base includes a heater plate positioned in a recessed region, and a heat conductive portion of the chamber is configured to contact the heater plate. The heater base includes a guard configured to control movement of the chamber into and out of the recessed region. The guard includes an anti-racking mechanism. The chamber includes an inlet port, an outlet port. A downward extension extends into the chamber from the inlet port, and a baffle is disposed at a lower end of the downward extension. A component of the breathing circuit can include a conduit hanging end cap for shipping and storage. The end cap can include a hanging component to allow the breathing circuit component to be hung from a medical stand. The system can detect when breathing circuits are connected in reverse.

Abstract: A system for removing undesirable compounds from contaminated air includes a biofilter having an alkaline material introduction system and a fuzzy-logic based controller. A contaminant, such as hydrogen sulfide, is removed from contaminated air by passing the contaminated air through the biofilter.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and systems are provided for automatically identifying features of a cytology specimen. An example method can involve dividing a whole slide image of the cytology specimen into a plurality of image portions; applying a first neural network to each image portion to identify one or more relevant image portions; and applying a second neural network to a first relevant image portion and a second relevant image portion to generate a respective first and second cell data. Each relevant image portion can be an image portion containing a region of interest for the cytology specimen. The method can further involve comparing the first and second cell data to determine whether a similarity threshold is satisfied; and in response to determining the similarity threshold is not satisfied, continuing to apply the second neural network to a subsequent relevant image portion until the similarity threshold is satisfied.

Abstract: A process for producing a compound of the following formula (I) which process comprises: (a) treating a compound of the following formula (5) with a compound of the following formula (6) to generate an intermediate compound of the following formula (7); (b) treating a compound of formula (7) as defined above with a compound of the following formula (8); and (c) recovering a compound of formula (I) as defined above. The compound of formula (I) is a promising modulator of p300/CBP activity that has potential utility in treating cancers, including prostate cancer, haematological cancers, bladder cancer and lung cancer.

Abstract: Example implementations described herein are directed to systems and methods for providing a panoramic video connection between one location and another, or between one location and a number of distributed remote viewers, which provides reciprocity in terms of awareness of who is viewing and what they are looking at. In example implementations described herein, radial displays present panoramic video from remote locations, or synthesized views of face shots positioned to indicate the viewing direction of remote viewers.

Abstract: A method of selectively leaching a metal such as nickel from an ore or ore processing intermediate comprising the metal and cobalt. The ore or ore processing intermediate is contacted with an acidic leach solution comprising an amount of an oxidising agent sufficient to oxidise a major portion of the cobalt to thereby cause it to be stabilised in the solid phase while a major portion of the metal is dissolved for subsequent recovery.

Abstract: Example implementations include a system and method for providing a focus and context view for a movable apparatus. The focus view is indicated in a central portion of the display, and a context view is warped around the focus portion of the display to provide context. In example implementations, selection of another portion to render as the focus portion causes the movable apparatus to orient itself to the focus portion as the forward direction.

Abstract: Some aspects of the invention can involve compositions, systems, and related techniques that control or reduce objectionable odor characteristics of a body or a stream of wastewater. The compositions, systems, and related techniques can comprise one or more compounds that adjust metabolic activity of at least a portion of microorganisms in wastewater to inhibit or disfavor the formation of at least one objectionable odorous compound or species and one or more compounds that modify, shift, or promote one or more states or characteristics of one or more objectionable odorous species in wastewater. The metabolic modifying compound can be an anthraquinone and the state modifying compound can be an alkaline or pH-elevating compound.

Abstract: A method of processing a copper-containing source material is provided whereby an aqueous acidic leach solution of the copper-containing source material is formed and then contacted with a pH increasing agent to thereby cause the precipitation of a copper-containing intermediate. The copper-containing intermediate can then be collected and exposed to a high temperature treatment, such as would be encountered in smelter or converter operations.
