Abstract: A method includes receiving, at a processor and from a requestor compute device, a request including a representation of at least one video camera from a set of video cameras. In response to receiving the request, a set of at least one video file is generated by retrieving a set of video clips associated with the at least one video camera and the time range. For each of the at least one video camera, a subset of video clips is selected from the set of video clips for that video camera based on a comparison of anomaly scores for that video camera, and concatenating the subsets of video clips to generate the set of at least one video file. The method also includes sending a signal to cause display of at least one video file from the set of at least one video file via the requestor compute device.

Abstract: A power system includes a battery and a controller. The controller inhibits charge of the battery according to voltage or current values sensed before and after contactors electrically connected to the battery are commanded to open and indicating that a leakage resistance associated with one of the contactors increases after the one of contactors is commanded to open, and a duration of a continuous voltage drop across another of the contactors after the another of the contactors is commanded to open exceeds a threshold.

Abstract: A method for monitoring protected regions of a camera view includes receiving, at a processor of a video camera system, a video stream including a series of video frames depicting at least one scene. A background model is identified based on a predefined representation of at least one region of interest associated with the scene. Each of the video frames is compared to the background model, to define an associated binary mask. A persistent change in the at least one region of interest is detected, based on the binary masks, the persistent change having an associated duration that exceeds a predefined threshold. In response to detecting the persistent change, a change notification message including a video file is generated. The method also includes causing display of the change notification message via a user interface and/or causing transmission of the change notification message to a remote compute device.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure provides an article of footwear comprising a forefoot portion with a top layer and a bottom layer, where a void is formed between the top layer and the bottom layer. A heel portion is secured to the bottom layer of the forefoot portion and indirectly secured to the top layer through the bottom layer of the forefoot portion, the heel area forming a first portion of a collar. There is at least one extension extending from the heel portion that is secured to an edge of the top layer of the forefoot portion, and the extension forms at least a second portion of the collar.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software described herein provide improvements of identifying stances of data sources for events. In one implementation, an event summary service identifies data objects that correspond to an event and identifies a data source from a plurality of data sources for each of the data objects. The summary service further, for each data object of the data objects, processing the data object to identify pertinent data related to a stance for the data source for the data object in relation to the event, and identifies a stance for each of the plurality of data sources based on the pertinent data identified in the data objects.

Abstract: A method for diagnostic imaging with reduced contrast agent dose uses a deep learning network (DLN) [114] that has been trained using zero-contrast [100] and low-contrast [102] images as input to the DLN and full-contrast images [104] as reference ground truth images. Prior to training, the images are pre-processed [106, 110, 118] to co-register and normalize them. The trained DLN [114] is then used to predict a synthesized full-dose contrast agent image [116] from acquired zero-dose and low-dose images.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a casino patron engagement system that facilitates engagement among casino employees and casino patrons to engender patron loyalty.

Abstract: A data storage device comprising a recording head having a high damping magnetic alloy layer including at least one magnetic alloy element, and a 5d transition element; the high damping magnetic alloy layer having a mixed face-centered cubic (fcc) and body-centered cubic (bcc) crystal structure, and the mixed fcc and bcc crystal structure comprising fcc and bcc grains, with the bcc grains having an elongated shape relative to the fcc grains, a larger size than the fcc grains, and slip deformation, thereby providing the high damping magnetic alloy layer with a damping constant of up to about 0.07.

Abstract: The present invention provides a compound of the formula I, a process for its preparation and the use of a medicament for the treatment of cancer. The compound of the present invention has an inhibitory effect on various cancer cells and can be biologically converted into the active drug Linifanib in vitro (in plasma) to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells, especially liver cancer cells, at a lower dose.

Abstract: The present invention provides a compound exemplified by Formula I: a process for its preparation and the use of a medicament for the treatment of cancer. The compound of the present invention has an inhibitory effect on various cancer cells and can be biologically converted into the active drug Linifanib in vitro (in liver homogenate and spleen homogenate) to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells, especially liver cancer cells, at a lower dose.

Abstract: A turbocharger system includes a wastegate with a bypass passage and a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes a poppet with an axis. The valve assembly also includes an arm that is attached to the poppet and that supports movement of the poppet between a closed position and an open position. Additionally, the valve assembly includes a plurality of biasing members that are disposed within a joint between the poppet and the arm. The plurality of biasing members provides a biasing force directed in a radial direction relative to the axis. The plurality of biasing members is disposed substantially symmetrically with respect to a first radial line of symmetry and a second radial line of symmetry.
