  • Publication number: 20230404428
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes various aspects of various devices, and methods of making and using the devices, for measuring bioimpedance of tissues within a patient's body, such as GI tract tissue. The devices entail using various implementations of capsules or other housings that allow for ingestion or other insertion into a body of the device, equipped with microfabricated sensors and embedded circuitry enabling wireless communication. Among other benefits, this approach addresses a gap in conventional GI tract monitoring devices and methods to non-invasively access the small intestine and directly measure the inflammatory state of intestinal tissue, including ischemia, edema, and mucosal abnormalities.

  • Patent number: 11501794
    Abstract: Described herein is a system for improving sentiment detection and/or recognition using multiple inputs. For example, an autonomously motile device is configured to generate audio data and/or image data and perform sentiment detection processing. The device may process the audio data and the image data using a multimodal temporal attention model to generate sentiment data that estimates a sentiment score and/or a sentiment category. In some examples, the device may also process language data (e.g., lexical information) using the multimodal temporal attention model. The device can adjust its operations based on the sentiment data. For example, the device may improve an interaction with the user by estimating the user's current emotional state, or can change a position of the device and/or sensor(s) of the device relative to the user to improve an accuracy of the sentiment data.

  • Patent number: 9292262
    Abstract: A dynamically evolving cognitive architecture system based on contributions from third-party developers is described. A system receives a span of natural language annotated with an object from a first third-party developer. The system forms an intent based on a user input, which includes a natural language span which corresponds to an action object, a first concept object, and/or a second concept object. The action object, the first concept object, and/or the second concept object is provided by a second third-party developer. The annotating object is the action object, the first concept object, or the second concept object. Forming the intent enables executing the action object to transform the first concept object into the second concept object based on the annotated span of natural language, and also enables outputting a value associated with the second concept object associated with a goal of the intent.

  • Patent number: 8949254
    Abstract: Techniques for enhancing content are disclosed. In some embodiments, enhancing content includes automatically identifying a set of modifications to the existing content of a page that would result in the page satisfying a set of search properties and applying at least a subset of the set of modifications to the page. Furthermore, techniques for enhancing link structure are disclosed. In some embodiments, enhancing link structure includes automatically determining a constrained link structure for a set of pages that satisfies a set of one or more constraints and that is at least in part different from an existing link structure of the set of pages and making one or more modifications to the existing link structure to at least in part realize the constrained link structure for the set of pages.

  • Publication number: 20090313189
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems and apparatus for constructing assemblies of biological knowledge constituting a biological knowledge base, and for subsetting and transforming life sciences-related data and information into biological models to facilitate computation and electronic reasoning on biological information. A subset of data is extracted from a global knowledge base or repository to reconstruct a more specialized sub-knowledge base or assembly designed specifically for the purpose at hand. Assemblies generated by the invention permit selection and rational organization of seemingly diverse data into a model of any selected biological system, as defined by any desired biological criteria. These assemblies can be mined easily and can be logically reasoned with great productivity and efficiency.

  • Patent number: 7125552
    Abstract: The method for immune serum globulin purification relates to the purification of immune globulins from blood plasma with a high degree of efficiency and a high rate of recovery. The immune globulin source is Cohn's fraction I+II+III or II+III prepared from plasma or plasma intermediates by precipitation of the paste at pH 6.7 to 6.8 in the presence of 20% ethanol and 80% purified water. A glycine extraction is followed by an anion exchange chromatography column step to achieve a significantly high yield and high purity of the concentrated protein.

  • Publication number: 20050160261
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method, apparatus and computer instructions for scaling a user interface adaptively to an object discovery or display system with policy driven filtering. A number of filters are defined by the user in an initial setup. The filter includes a target number of discovered objects and a metric for filtering discovered objects. Once the initial setup is complete, the present invention automatically triggers or deactivates the filters and dynamically applies one or more filters based on the number of discovered objects and rules defined by the user. Resulting discovered objects are displayed in the user interface to the user.
