  • Publication number: 20210201174
    Abstract: Techniques for generating a natural language question template for an artificial intelligence question and answer (QA) system are disclosed. A graph database query relating to a QA system is parsed using a predefined schema. The parsing includes extracting a first plurality of values from the graph database query relating to a where clause in the graph database query, extracting a second plurality of values from the graph database query relating to a return clause in the graph database query, identifying a QA template rule relating to the graph database query, based on a match clause in the graph database query. A natural language question template is generated based on the first plurality of values, the second plurality of values, and the identified QA template rule. The natural language question template is suitable for use by the QA system as part of generating a response to a natural language question.

  • Patent number: 10905332
    Abstract: A bone oximeter probe includes an elongated member and a sensor head at an end of the elongated member to make measurements for a bone. The measurements can indicate the viability or nonviability of the bone. In an implementation, the probe is advanced through an incision in soft tissue, towards the underlying bone, and positioned so that the sensor head faces the bone to be measured. Optical signals are sent from the sensor head and into the bone. The bone reflects some of the optical signals which are then detected so that measurements for the bone can be made. Some of these measurements include an oxygen saturation level value, and a total hemoglobin concentration value of the bone.

  • Patent number: 10838025
    Abstract: A radio-frequency system for a magnetic resonance apparatus has a local coil, a body coil, and an impedance adjusting shield. The body coil is wirelessly power-coupled with the local coil such that the body coil serves as a transmitting coil for radio-frequency signals and the local coil serves as a receiving coil for magnetic resonance signals. The local coil is disposed in an internal cavity of the impedance adjusting shield. An impedance of the local coil is adjusted by the impedance adjusting shield so as to match the impedance of the local coil and the body coil. The impedance adjusting shield has a frequency modulation element that adjusts the resonance frequency of the local coil. The body coil couples power to the local coil, and the impedance adjusting shield effectively reduces energy transmission efficiency loss caused by reflection, thereby improving energy transmission efficiency.
