  • Patent number: 11972368
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer program products for determining the source of activity during interaction with a user interface are provided. The method comprises selecting one or more input devices from a plurality of available input devices coupled to the user interface and receiving respective measurements for the selected one or more input devices. Based on the received respective measurements, respective feature vectors for the one or more input devices are generated and then inputted to a pre-defined regression model. Then, the source of activity is determined based on a result received from the regression model.

  • Publication number: 20230385252
    Abstract: An approach is provided that retrieves fingerprint configuration sets corresponding to a received data source and uses the configuration sets to generate fingerprints that correspond to the data source. These fingerprints are compared to a number of fingerprints that are stored in a repository. If a match is found, then the data quality configuration set is retrieved from the repository and used to perform a data quality analysis. On the other hand, if a match is not found, then one of the configuration sets is selected to perform the data quality analysis on the received data source and the repository is updated so that the selected fingerprint configuration set corresponds to the received data source.

  • Publication number: 20230012496
    Abstract: Described herein is a beads-free bioprocessor as an automated and cost-effective T cell processing and manufacturing platform. T cells are a core component in CAR T cell therapies for cancer treatment, but are difficult to manufacture to scale in clinically relevant quantities. The 3D bioprocessor provides an alternative device that is scalable, beads-free, easy-to-use, and cost-effective for using CAR T cell therapy in cancer immunotherapy. Besides CAR T cell application, this platform technology has potential for many other applications such as cancer cell isolation.
