Abstract: Methods and systems for separating an object, such as a lead, from formed tissue are provided. Specifically, a tissue slitting apparatus is configured to engage formed tissue at a slitting engagement point. While the object is subjected to a first traction force, the tissue slitting apparatus is caused to move further into the engaged tissue and slit the tissue past the point of engagement. The slitting apparatus causes the tissue to separate along an axial direction of the length of the formed tissue and releases at least some of the force containing the object. The slitting apparatus is supported by a distal end support device configured to lock onto the lead. While supported, a slitting element of the apparatus places fibers of the formed tissue under tension and performs a lifting cut operation. The methods and systems are well suited for use in cardiac pacing or defibrillator lead explant procedures.

Abstract: A computer is provided that includes a search engine. The search engine is configured to receive a search request and conduct a search against a database. Each record within the database includes or is associated with a display criteria or profile that specifies when data from that record can be included into a response to a search.

Abstract: Implementations a method using a collision detection device associated with a user to detect a moving object in an environment and provide an alert to the user are provided. In some implementations the environment comprises at least one transmitter of opportunity. In some implementations, the collision detection device comprises a receiver and a processor. In some implementations, the method comprises receiving at the collision detection device Wi-Fi signals reflected from the moving object where the Wi-Fi signals originate from a Wi-Fi source not associated with the moving object. The method further comprises detecting, measuring, and tracking the Doppler effect of the Wi-Fi signals at the collision detection device to track velocity vector relative to the collision detection device. The method further comprises calculating the time of arrival of the moving object based on the velocity vector relative to the location of the collision detection device.

Abstract: A cooling device includes a cover, a trough connected to the cover, and a fan circulating air that is received from sides of the cooling device. The area above the fan is enclosed by the cover. The cooling device also includes a pump for delivering liquid to one or more pads located in the trough. The cooling device also includes a sensor that controls operating of the fan and the pump.

Abstract: A computer system is provided that allows participants to submit agent data structures for processing. Each agent data structure includes a valuation function for a first resource and a property of a second resource. The computer system performs a dual sided evaluation process to determine when contra-sided agents match with one another. A match is determined by comparing results of valuation functions of the agent data structures.

Abstract: The technology is directed towards receiving training data regarding a set of observations. Each observation includes a feature set, a treatment, and an outcome. A first generation of machine learning models is trained, via the training data, to predict an outcome for a feature set of a given observation. A new generation of models is generated by selecting a subset of models from the trained first generation of models based on a fitness criteria of each model to generate an intermediate layer for use in predicting a treatment. An algorithm is applied to the selected subset of models to generate the new generation of models. Transformed training data is generated using the training data and a model of the new generation of models. The transformed training data includes, for each observation, a transformed feature set comprising a representation of the feature set in a latent space of the model.

Abstract: A digital experience enhancement system includes an ensemble deep learning model that includes an estimator ensemble and a neural network. The ensemble deep learning model is trained to generate a digital experience enhancement recommendation from an enhancement request. The ensemble deep learning model receives the enhancement request, which is input to the estimator ensemble. The estimator ensemble uses various different machine learning systems to generate estimator output values. The neural network uses the estimator output values from the estimator ensemble to generate a digital experience enhancement recommendation. The digital experience generation system then uses this digital experience enhancement recommendation to enhance the digital experience.

Abstract: A cycling footwear cleat for connection to a receiving portion of a pedal is shown. The pedal includes a mounting shaft to which the receiving portion of the pedal is rotatably mounted. The cleat including: a mount for mounting the cleat to an underside of cycling footwear; an attachment portion for receipt by the receiving portion of the pedal; and a resilient member provided between the attachment portion and the receiving portion when the pedal is attached to the cleat. The resilient member resists movement of the attachment portion relative to the receiving portion. The resilient member improves a cyclist's pedalling efficiency, as well as allowing for variable float of the cleat within the pedal as and when required.

Abstract: A Statistical financial system to value patient visits to healthcare providers allows healthcare providers to optimize their financial outcomes when billing insurance payers for services rendered in the course of patient visits. Commercial healthcare information systems today lack the ability to value these services in advance. Given the complexity of valuing services based on many variables and resource limitations, a predictive valuation provides the user with the information for accurate and timely decision making Using the historical data, the system creates a predictive model of future claims by creating attribute patterns from the data. As new information comes into the system, these attribute patterns are compared to the real-time data in order to create a value for a service and an overall visit. Using the valuation, the system will now be able to prioritize all follow-up tasks. The overall result is a better financial performance for the healthcare provider.
