  • Patent number: 10033793
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for monitoring a portable device are disclosed herein. An example method includes connecting to a portable device using a shell. Whether the shell has an elevated privilege on the portable device is verified. In response to detecting that the shell does not have the elevated privilege, the elevated privilege is gained. A packet capturer is installed on the portable device using the elevated privilege, the packet capturer to capture packets to produce media exposure data, the elevated privileges to enable the packet capturer to capture packets after disconnection of the shell from the portable device.

  • Patent number: 9898655
    Abstract: A system and method of for describing target data as a sequence of pattern elements and pattern element groups that comprise an overall target pattern is described. Pattern elements may utilize regular expression syntax along with other metadata that describe the behavior of the element. A pattern element group may be a collection of fully defined pattern elements where at least one pattern element from the group must have a match for the overall pattern to match. Patterns contain both pattern elements and pattern element groups. The general process involves first performing optical character recognition (OCR) on the document, which in turn produces a sequence of text tokens representing the lines of text on each page of the document. The search algorithm may then apply each defined pattern to the entire document capturing and/or extracting data that match each pattern's required elements and element groups.

  • Patent number: 9764033
    Abstract: Antibody formulations are described comprising a mixture of a non-reducing sugar, an anti-?4?7 antibody and at least one amino acid. The disclosed formulations have improved stability, reduced aggregate formation, and may retard degradation of the anti-?4?7 antibody therein or exhibit any combinations thereof. The present invention further provides a safe dosing regimen of these antibody formulations that is easy to follow, and which results in a therapeutically effective amount of the anti-?4?7 antibody in vivo.

  • Publication number: 20160355193
    Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to receive a user request to edit vehicle feature settings from a computer remote from a vehicle. The processor is also configured to retrieve saved vehicle feature setting configurations associated with a vehicle associated with an identified user account. The processor is further configured to build a current feature setting configuration display. Also, the processor is configured to present a user-configurable version of the display on a user interface. The processor is additionally configured to receive changes to current features setting configurations. The processor is also configured to save the changes and upload the changes to the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 9473555
    Abstract: A computer-implemented system, apparatus and method for accessing a portable device to execute monitoring capabilities. The monitoring capabilities include packet detection, which in turn may be processed to produce media exposure data. The monitoring capabilities are installed using privileged access in order to obtain data from a kernel layer of the portable device, and the device is returned to an original state following installation, in order to comply with operating system requirements. Audio media exposure data may further be integrated with the packet-detected media exposure data.

  • Publication number: 20150341226
    Abstract: A computing device forms a predictive composite score by retrieving geographically based wireless networking performance data derived from at least one mobile device. At least some of the geographically based wireless networking performance data is temporally averaged and geostatistically combined to form the predictive composite score. The predictive composite score is a forecast of expected performance quality of a wireless communication network in a particular geographic region.

  • Publication number: 20150199865
    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for evaluating dispenser functionality of a dispenser for dispensing a material. In an example, a non-loaded electrical characteristic and/or a loaded electrical characteristic of the dispenser may be measured and evaluated to determine whether to perform a dispense event. In another example, current measurements, such as peak current, may be measured during a dispense event. The current measurements may be evaluated to determine whether a problem exists, such as a mechanical stall, a gear train problem, an actuator problem, a pump problem (e.g., a clogged pump), a mechanical impedance, and/or other issue. Such information may be collected, stored as historical data, and/or used to determine whether to perform subsequent dispense events.
