  • Publication number: 20210398670
    Abstract: A method for answering a user-generated natural language medical information query based on a diagnostic conversational template, including: receiving a medical information query at an artificial intelligence-based diagnostic conversation agent; responsive to content of the query, selecting a diagnostic fact variable set relevant to generating an answer for the query by classifying the query into a domain-directed medical query classification associated with respective diagnostic fact variable sets; compiling user-specific medical fact variable values for respective medical fact variables of the diagnostic fact variable set, where the compiling further includes: extracting a first set of user-specific medical fact variable values from a local user medical information profile associated with the query and requesting a second set of user-specific medical fact variable values through questions; and generating an answer in response to the query.

  • Publication number: 20210300306
    Abstract: In various examples, activation criteria and/or braking profiles corresponding to automatic emergency braking (AEB) systems and/or collision mitigation warning (CMW) systems may be determined using sensor data representative of an environment to a front, side, and/or rear of a vehicle. For example, activation criteria for triggering an AEB system and/or CMW system may be adjusted by leveraging the availability of additional information with regards to the surrounding environment of a vehicle—such as the presence of a trailing vehicle. In addition, the braking profile for the AEB activation may be adjusted based on information about the presence of and/or location of vehicles to the front, rear, and/or side of the vehicle. By adjusting the activation criteria and/or braking profiles of an AEB system, the potential for collisions with dynamic objects in the environment is reduced and the overall safety of the vehicle and its passengers is increased.

  • Patent number: 10928060
    Abstract: A burner nozzle includes an outer housing, and a nozzle and a piston receivable within the outer housing. The piston is movable between an open position, where air and a well product are able to enter an atomizing chamber to generate an air/well product mixture, and a closed position, where the piston moves to stop a flow of the well product and a metered amount of air flows through one or more leak paths defined between a leading edge of each axial flow port and an adjacent closure surface provided by the nozzle body and into the atomizing chamber.

  • Publication number: 20210043286
    Abstract: Systems and methods for decreasing risk-adjusted mortality rates, including identifying patient co-morbidity-related clinical data by preprocessing historical patient data based on rules. Identified co-morbidity-related clinical data is displayed using an interactive user interface for validation, and validated results are stored in an electronic health record (EHR) for the patient. Updated co-morbidity-related clinical is identified by concurrent processing updated patient data based on the rules. The updated co-morbidity-related clinical data is displayed using the interactive user interface for further validation. The EHR is iteratively updated with revised co-morbidity data by the postprocessing upon detection of changes to the EHR.
