Publication number: 20240127451Abstract: Described herein are methods and computer systems for classification of CD8 T-cell topology using a patient response-based linear cutoff model. A plurality of histology images of tissue samples in a plurality of patients are received by a computer system. An image analysis of the plurality of histology images is performed to obtain a CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma in each of the plurality of histology images. Real inflammation scores and tumor infiltration scores are determined based on a polar coordinate transformation of the CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma. Based on the real inflammation scores and tumor infiltration scores, a feature space is generated, and linear boundaries or linear cutoffs between a plurality of classifications in the feature space are identified based on the real inflammation scores, the tumor infiltration scores, and patient response data.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: Bristol-Myers Squibb CompanyInventors: George C. Lee, Robin Edwards, Scott Ely, Daniel N. Cohen, John B. Wojcik, Vipul A. Baxi, Dimple Pandya, Jimena Trillo-Tinoco, Benjamin J. Chen, Andrew Fisher, Falon Gray

Patent number: 7571846Abstract: A carton blank is used in a form, fill and seal machine on which a closure is directly molded onto the carton. The molding portion of the machine includes a tool set having first and second tool elements in which the first tool element has an aligning member extending therefrom in a direction transverse to a direction of loading the carton between the first and second tool elements. The aligning element has a predetermined shape having diverging surfaces. The carton blank includes a rear wall panel, a first side wall panel, a front wall panel and a second side wall panel. Each panel is separated from its adjacent panels by a vertical score line. A closure panel is adjacent the front wall panel, has an opening therein and is configured for having a closure molded thereon. The closure panel is partitioned from the front wall panel by a first horizontal score line. The closure panel has a closure panel fin panel extending from a side opposite the front wall panel.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2004Date of Patent: August 11, 2009Assignee: Tetra Laval Holdings & Finance, S.A.Inventors: Terry B.

Publication number: 20090033658Abstract: A method and system for computer aided design (CAD) is disclosed for designing geometric objects. The present invention interpolates and/or blends between such geometric objects sufficiently fast so that real time deformation of such objects occurs while deformation data is being input. Thus, a user designing with the present invention obtains immediate feedback to input modifications without separately entering a command for performing such deformations. The present invention utilizes novel computational techniques for blending between geometric objects, wherein weighted sums of points on the geometric objects are used in deriving a new blended geometric object. The present invention is particularly useful for designing the shape of surfaces. Thus, the present invention is applicable to various design domains such as the design of, e.g., bottles, vehicles, and watercraft.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2008Publication date: February 5, 2009Applicant: FREEDESIGN, INC.Inventors: Alyn Rockwood, Lance Hagen, Scott Hagen, John N.

Patent number: 6965554Abstract: A light beam encoded with data simultaneously reads out data stored in tracks on an optical disk and produces a reflected beam directed to a detector array. The data stored on the optical disk and the encoded data may be components of vector arrays. As the light beam illuminates the rotating optical disk, the data stored on the disk is multiplied by the encoded data. The products of the multiplication are encoded in the reflected beam. A multiplicity of data is read out in parallel from the optical disk and simultaneously correlated with the encoded data. This comparison or correlation operation is performed on digitally encoded data utilizing convolution, or with analog encoding. The present invention can be utilized in pattern matching.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2003Date of Patent: November 15, 2005Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: John N.

Patent number: 5865010Abstract: A carton filling machine comprising a compartmentalized clean air system for providing a downward unidirectional flow of clean air into a chamber that substantially encloses one of the machine stations is provided. Preferably, the machine station is a filling station. Even more preferably the clean air system encloses both the fill pipe of the filling station and a top folding portion of a top sealing station of the machine. The top folding portion of the top sealing station ensures that the carton exits the chamber in a closed state whereby the carton is maintained in a very hygienic state after it has been filled in a very hygienic atmosphere. The air flow is advantageously divided into plural streams, one of which is directed about the fill pipe to further ensure sterile filling conditions.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 1997Date of Patent: February 2, 1999Assignee: Tetra Laval Holdings & Finance SAInventors: Paul C.
