Abstract: Photocatalysts for reduction of carbon dioxide and water are provided that can be tuned to produce certain reaction products, including hydrogen, alcohol, aldehyde, and/or hydrocarbon products. These photocatalysts can form artificial photosystems and can be incorporated into devices that reduce carbon dioxide and water for production of various fuels. Doped wide-bandgap semiconductor nanotubes are provided along with synthesis methods. A variety of optical, electronic and magnetic dopants (substitutional and interstitial, energetically shallow and deep) are incorporated into hollow nanotubes, ranging from a few dopants to heavily-doped semiconductors. The resulting wide-bandgap nanotubes, with desired electronic (p- or n-doped), optical (ultraviolet bandgap to infrared absorption in co-doped nanotubes), and magnetic (from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic) properties, can be used in photovoltaics, display technologies, photocatalysis, and spintronic applications.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns a method for extracting spatial distribution statistics from patient tissue samples assayed with a tissue-based test for the purpose of scoring the patient tissue samples and guiding treatment based on the score(s). The method described herein utilizes digital image analysis of an image of one or more tissue sections to extract object-based (e.g., cells) features. The object-based features within the image of the tissue section is further processed using one or more algorithm processes to extract sophisticated spatial distribution features of one or more object type or sub-type in the tissue. Statistics describing the spatial distribution features are summarized to generate a patient-specific diagnostic score, and this score can be evaluated to guide patient treatment decisions.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns a method for extracting geographic distribution statistics from patient tissue samples assayed with a tissue-based test for the purpose of scoring the patient tissue samples and guiding treatment based on the score(s). The method described herein utilizes digital image analysis of an image of one or more tissue sections to extract object-based (e.g., cells) features to generate a data array representing said tissue numerically in image analysis feature space. The numerical representation of the image of the tissue section in image analysis feature space is further processed using one or more algorithm processes to extract sophisticated geographical distribution features of one or more object type or sub-type in the tissue. Statistics describing the geographic distribution features are summarized to generate a patient-specific diagnostic score, and this score can be evaluated to guide patient treatment decisions.
