Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for generating a constant bitrate (CBR) transport stream in manners that facilitate subsequent reconstruction, and for performing such reconstruction are disclosed herein. For example, generating a CBR transport stream may include for each payload packets: sampling a clock source to obtain a clock sample; and inserting an encoding of the clock sample in a stuffing area of a header of the payload packet. For example, reconstructing a CBR transport stream may include receiving a plurality of packets of a variable bitrate (VBR) transport stream; for a pair of adjacent packets in the VBR transport stream: extracting a clock sample from a header of each of the pair adjacent packets; computing a delta between the clock samples; and inserting one or more null packets between the adjacent packets based on the computed delta and a timing metric corresponding to a bitrate of the CBR transport stream.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a level of collaboration between a user and an exoskeleton boot are provided. A device, using an exoskeleton boot, can provide a level of force to a limb of a user to aide movement of the limb. The device can measure one or more parameters of the exoskeleton boot during the movement of the limb using the exoskeleton boot. The device can determine one or more biometrics of the user during the movement of the limb using the exoskeleton boot. The device can determine, based on the one or more biometrics and the one or more parameters of the device, a metric indicative of a collaboration between the user and the exoskeleton boot during the movement.

Abstract: A method of potentiating a biocidal impact of a dialkyl dimethyl quaternary ammonium salt, can include forming a composition by combining about 8% to about 20%, by weight of the composition, of a propoxylated and ethoxylated nonionic surfactant having an average carbon chain length of about 6 to about 10, or about 3% to about 20% by weight of the composition of an amine oxide; and about 1% to about 3%, by weight of the composition, of the dialkyl dimethyl quaternary ammonium salt.

Abstract: A method for holistically ranking medical student and medical residency matching including, generating an applicant profile, determining a diversity score as a function of data in the applicant profile, determining a competency score as a function of data in the applicant profile, and calculating a representative score as a function of the diversity score and the competency score. Further, the method includes presenting, via a graphical user interface (GUI) a graphical representation of the representative score.

Abstract: A laundry detergent composition can include a nonionic surfactant, an amine oxide, and a quaternary ammonium salt biocide, where the composition is micellar.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to devices for measuring reactions between a recognition element and a biological fluid (biomarker) to determine user well-being. The present invention features a sensor for analyzing a plurality of features of a reaction between an enzyme and a biomarker to measure a user's health. The sensor may comprise a substrate with an enzyme source and a drain. The enzyme source may comprise an enzyme path leading to a substrate surface to direct the enzyme to react with the biomarker to become a post-reaction mixture. The drain may comprise a drain path. The post-reaction mixture may travel from the substrate surface through the drain path to the drain. The sensor may further comprise an electronic gate disposed above the surface of the substrate for measuring the plurality of features. The sensor may be wearable on a skin surface of the user.
