Abstract: A respiratory disease analytics system provides respiratory disease risk reports to a patient, provider, or third-party entity describing a patient's risk of experiencing a medication usage event given data in a geographic region. Regional data, including air pollutant conditions, weather conditions, demographic information, built environment factors, and regional health conditions for a geographic region are accessed from other sources and assigned based on event data recorded during a medicament usage event, as collected by sensors associated with the patient's medicament device/s. The regional data is assigned to medicament usage events occurring within a period of time. The assigned regional data is analyzed to determine an expected number of medication usage events for the geographic region occurring over the period of time.

Abstract: Light-emitting devices including solid-state light-emitting devices, light-emitting diode (LED) devices, and LED packages with support elements for improved near-field and far-field emissions are disclosed. LED chips may be mounted to support elements in a manner that directs light through the support elements in desired emission directions. Support elements include optical structures that spread and mix light laterally within the support element. Optical structures include various light-altering layers, such as light-diffusing layers or light-reflective layers, that are arranged to effectively increase internal reflections for lateral spreading of light. Patterned arrangements of light-altering layers include portions that mask direct emissions for LED chips, thereby redistributing emissions laterally to increase near-field and/or far-field uniformity across an increased portion of emitting surfaces.

Abstract: Support structures are used in certain additive fabrication processes to permit fabrication of a greater range of object geometries. For additive fabrication processes with materials that are subsequently sintered into a final part, an interface layer is formed between the object and support in order to inhibit bonding between adjacent surfaces of the support structure and the object during sintering.

Abstract: A wearable sound device includes a venting device including a film structure and an actuator and a driving circuit configured to be controlled by a controller and to drive the actuator, such that the film structure is controlled to form a vent or to seal the vent. The controller is coupled to a sensing device configured to generate a sensing result and determine whether to seal the vent according to the sensing result. The film structure partitions a space within the wearable sound device into a first volume and a second volume. The first volume is connected to or to be connected to an ear canal of a wearable sound device user. The second volume is connected to or to be connected to an ambient of the wearable sound device. The first volume and the second volume are connected via the vent when the vent is formed.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for generating a computing network from natural language descriptions of the computing network are provided. In one or more examples, the systems and methods described below can be used harvest publically available (or even privately available) natural language descriptions of a computing network, and convert those descriptions into an operational replica of the described computing network. By harvesting both publically available data, as well as other resources, the systems and methods described herein can allow for an analyst tasked with analyzing a given computing network to generate a fully operational replica of the computing network without having to have direct access to the network. In one or more examples, the analyst can recreate a fully-functional replica of the network to be analyzed based on partial descriptions of the computing network, thereby greatly improving the level of analysis capable of being performed.

Abstract: A drive train for a wind-up injection device is described. The drive train includes a torsional energy storage adapted to be loaded or unloaded by a rotatable element, a rotatable user handle, a rotationally driveable expelling mechanism adapted to expel the liquid drug, and a clutch element coupled with the torsional energy storage via the rotatable element and including a ratchet for maintaining the rotatable element at one of a number of discrete angular positions against the torque of the torsional energy storage. The clutch element is adapted to transmit the torque from the user handle to the torsional energy storage, or alternatively from the torsional energy storage to the expelling mechanism. The ratchet is switchable from one position to an adjacent position by a torque transmitted from the user handle to the torsional energy storage. The drive train is adapted to dampen torque peaks visco-elastically and/or visco-frictionally.

Abstract: A cooling system for an information handling system includes multiple compressors, and a processor programmed to identify a first compressor in a compressor array.

Further, the cooling system includes the compressor array. The processor is also programmed to making a first determination that the first compressor in the compressor array is unavailable. Then, based on the first determination, identify a second compressor in the compressor array, make a second determination that the second compressor is available, and adjust an operation of the second compressor to implement the change.

Abstract: A method and apparatus to classify processor events is provided. The apparatus includes a reference generator, a warping unit, a correlation unit and a detector. The reference generator provides a self-reference for an event vector stream based on a history of the event vector stream and the warping unit dynamically aligns the event vector stream with the self-reference to generate a warped event vector stream. The correlation unit determines a window-by-window correlation of event vectors of the warped event vector stream, and the detector passes a window of event vectors of the warped event vector stream to a behavioral classifier when the window-by-window correlation achieves a threshold value. The behavioral classifier may use machine learning. A sample reservoir may be used to store dynamically selected event vectors of the event vector stream that are used, at least in part, to generate the self-reference.
