Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for augmenting real-time bidding data with proprietary data. One method includes: receiving, at a server over an electronic communications network from a real-time impression bidder, a bid request or a request to augment a bid request with proprietary data; accessing, by the server from an internal database, proprietary data of a data augmenting service based on a user identifier of the bid request; determining, by the server, proprietary data to include in an augmented bid request based on at least one of the received bid request and the user identifier; formatting, by the server, the augmented bid request into a standardized, augmented bid request; and transmitting, by the server over the electronic communications network, the standardized, augmented bid request to the real-time impression bidder.

Abstract: An electric candle device that resembles a real was candle includes an outer shell with an uneven edge around the top of the outer shell. The device includes one or more light emitting elements positioned within a cavity inside the outer shell and that emit beams at a non-zero angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the electric lighting device to provide illumination from within the cavity in an upward direction and reaching above the top surface after passing through the opening. An optical element is positioned to receive light from the one or more light emitting elements and to direct the received light toward the top surface. The optical element has a focal point to change one or both of a size and direction of the light received prior to projecting the light in the direction of the top surface.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for managing online advertising data secure sharing. One method includes receiving, at a server, a request for proprietary data from a data consumer, the request including a data consumer identifier; retrieving, from a database of proprietary data, proprietary data based on the request; determining, by the server, whether the retrieved proprietary data is at least one of: designated to be processed and designated to have privileges set; processing, by the server, the proprietary data when the server determines the proprietary data is designated to be processed; setting one or more privileges to the proprietary data using the certificate associated with the data consumer identifier when the server determines the proprietary data is designated to have privileges set; encrypting the proprietary data using the certificate associated with the data consumer identifier; and transmitting the encrypted proprietary data to the data consumer.

Abstract: A temperature-management device comprises a wearable sleeve including a foot portion configured to cover at least a portion of a sole of a foot of a patient, a calf portion configured to cover at least a portion of a calf of the patient, the calf portion having one or more compression bladders associated therewith, and a popliteal fossa portion configured to cover at least a portion of a popliteal fossa of the patient. The temperature-management device further comprises a heater assembly configured to be secured to the wearable sleeve, the heater assembly including a foot heating pad, a popliteal fossa heating pad, and a physical connector extending between the foot heating pad and the popliteal fossa heating pad.

Abstract: Sterilization containers, components, and methods thereof. A locking mechanism is used to secure and release a filter assembly on a sterilization container includes two opposing buttons that, when compressed toward each other, unlock the locking mechanism and, when released, secure the locking mechanism.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for managing online advertising data secure sharing.

Abstract: A system and method design and optimize neural networks. The system and method include a data store that stores a plurality of gene vectors that represent diverse and distinct neural networks and an evaluation queue stored with the plurality of gene vectors. Secondary nodes construct, train, and evaluate the neural network and automatically render a plurality of fitness values asynchronously. A primary node executes a gene amplification on a select plurality of gene vectors, a crossing-over of the amplified gene vectors, and a mutation of the crossing-over gene vectors automatically and asynchronously, which are then transmitted to the evaluation queue. The process continuously repeats itself by processing the gene vectors inserted into the evaluation queue until a fitness level is reached, a network's accuracy level plateaus, a processing time period expires, or when some stopping condition or performance metric is met or exceeded.
