Abstract: A filter for a water cooler includes a housing having a surface and a cavity with cavity ports. The filter end is adapted to be received in the housing. The filter end includes a cylindrical base having a surface and a neck extending from the surface. The neck has filter ports and a side surface. The side surface has oppositely directed axially extending elongated protrusions configured to be received in channels in the housing. The base surface includes a complex set of protrusions which are adapted to be received in a similarly configured set of recesses in the housing surface. The protrusions/recesses may take the form of letters, numbers or symbols. The filter end is be fully seated in the housing in bayonet-type fashion to connect the filter ports and the housing ports o permit water to flow through the filter from the water supply to the water cooler.

Abstract: A method (100) for generating a textual description of a medical image, comprising: receiving (130) a medical image of an anatomical region, the image comprising one or more abnormalities; segmenting (140) the anatomical region in the received medical image from a remainder of the image; identifying (150) at least one of the one or more abnormalities in the segmented anatomical region; extracting (160) one or more features from the identified abnormality; generating (170), using the extracted features and a trained text generation model, a textual description of the identified abnormality; and reporting (180), via a user interface of the system, the generated textual description of the identified abnormality.

Abstract: A method of explaining a machine learning model, including: receiving a plurality of disease states for a patient over time from a database, wherein the disease states have a plurality of features; generating a plurality of locally faithful explanation models for the patient for each disease state based upon the machine learning model; calculating an explanation with respect to one feature of the plurality of features over time using the locally faithful explanation models; and calculating the importance of the one feature of the plurality of features over time based upon the plurality of locally faithful explanation models .

Abstract: A water inlet pipe connects a water supply to a faucet. A water flow control valve in the water inlet pipe regulates the flow of water through the water inlet pipe from the water supply to the faucet. A drip tray located beneath the faucet captures water overflow. A conduit connects the drip tray a storage container such that water in the drip tray drains into the storage container. A water level sensor associated with the storage container generates a overflow signal when the water level in the storage container reaches a pre-set level. The water flow control valve automatically prevents water flow through the water inlet pipe to the faucet in response to the overflow signal. A visible display and a sound generator are also energized in response to the alarm signal.

Abstract: A system for vital sign measuring of a patient, comprising: a first sensor removably attachable with a first body portion of the patient and configured to measure, when in operable position, a vital sign of the patient; at least one additional sensor removably attachable with a second body portion of the patient and configured to measure, when in operable position, a vital sign of the patient; and a processor configured to provide data descriptive of a level of correspondence between measurements of the vital signs provided by the first sensor and the at least one additional sensor.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores instructions readable and executable by at least one electronic processor (20) to perform an atrial fibrillation (AF) detection method (100). The method includes: generating a time-frequency representation of an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal acquired over a time interval; processing the time-frequency representation using a neural network (NN) (32) to output probabilities for rhythms of a set of rhythms including at least atrial fibrillation; assigning a rhythm for the ECG signal based on the probabilities for the rhythms of the set of rhythms output by the neural network; and controlling a display device (24) to display the rhythm assigned to the ECG signal.

Abstract: A method for training a probabilistic encoder-decoder having a latent space, the method including: extracting different types of medical data for a group of individuals; creating a data matrix X including the extracted medical data, wherein each row of the data matrix X includes data for one of the group of individuals; creating condition matrix C including features to define a clinical condition, wherein each row of the condition matrix C includes the condition data for one of the group of individuals; and training the encoder and the decoder to learn the latent space by minimizing the reconstruction loss and using a regularization effect to force clinically similar inputs to be close together in the latent space.

Abstract: A method and system for generating a personalized health management recommendation for a user. During operation, the system obtains first physiological data generated by a wearable device worn by the user that indicates a physiological condition of the user. The system then generates a prediction model for the user based on the first physiological data. Next, the system obtains real-time physiological data generated by the wearable device. The system may generate a prediction by analyzing the real-time physiological data to determine whether the user's physiological condition exceeds a threshold parameter according to the prediction model. Upon determining that the threshold parameter has been exceeded, the system may select a recommendation and send the recommendation message to the user's mobile device.

Abstract: A method of determining the infection risk probability for a patient, including: encoding physiological data of the patient into a first synthetic image; encoding environmental data of the patient into a second synthetic image; determining an intrinsic probability of infection for the patient based upon the first synthetic image and the second synthetic image using a machine learning model; generating a graphical model based upon the patient and other patients based upon similarity scores between the patient and the other patients; and determining the infection risk probability for the patient based upon the graphical model and the intrinsic probability of infection for the patient and the other patients.

Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system uses a magnetic linear motor driven ultrasound scanner, with accurate track and hold operation and/or other motion feedback, to scan a two dimensional or three dimensional area of a sample. The scanner is implemented in a low-power and low-bandwidth handheld device and is connected with a remote image processing system that receives raw data and performs full ultrasound image analysis and creation, allowing the handheld to be used for scanning, pre-processing, and display.
