Abstract: A patient interface to deliver a flow of air at a positive pressure with respect to ambient air pressure to an entrance to the patient's airways to ameliorate sleep disordered breathing includes a frame assembly and a cushion assembly configured to removably and repeatably connect to the frame assembly. The frame assembly and the cushion assembly form at least part of a plenum chamber pressurizable to a therapeutic pressure. The cushion assembly comprises a one-piece construction including a seal-forming structure configured to form a seal with a region of a patient's face surrounding the entrance to the patient's airways and a frame connection structure configured to removably and repeatably connect the cushion assembly to the frame assembly. The seal-forming structure comprises a first elastomeric material and the frame connection structure comprises a second elastomeric material, the first elastomeric material comprising a lower durometer or hardness than the second elastomeric material.

Abstract: Systems and methods for rails and obstacles detection based on forward-looking electrooptical imaging, novel system architecture and novel scene analysis and image processing are disclosed. The processing solution utilizes a deep learning semantic scene segmentation approach based on a rails and switches states detection neural network that determines the railway path of the train in the forward-looking imagery, and an objects and obstacles detection and tracking neural network that analyzes the vicinity of the determined railway path and detects impending obstacles.

Abstract: An intelligent video surveillance system is disclosed which performs real-time analytics on a live video stream. The system includes a training database populated with frames of actual video of objects of interest taken in a relevant environment. A subset of the frames include bounding boxes and/or bounding polygons which can be augmented. The training database also includes classification/annotation of data/labels relevant to the object of interest, a person carrying the object of interest, and/or the background or environment. The training database is searchable by the classification/annotation of data/labels.

Abstract: The present invention relates to fusion proteins comprising an insulin receptor agonist fused to a human IgG Fc region through the use of a peptide linker, and the use of such fusion proteins in the treatment of diabetes. The fusion protein of the present invention has an extended time action profile and is useful for providing basal glucose control for an extended period of time.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions, kits and methods for preparing and/or analysing biological samples from a subject. These compositions, kits and methods may be useful in applications, such as diagnosing cancer and/or or determining a prognosis therefor.

Abstract: A hair care appliance is provided and includes a diverter configured to divert a portion of airflow from an airflow path through the body into the handle to cool electrical components disposed within the handle. In an exemplary embodiment, a hair care appliance is provided having a handle and a body coupled to the handle. A fan assembly is disposed within the body and is configured to generate an airflow. A first portion of the airflow can flow from an inlet of the body to an outlet of the body. A second portion of the airflow can flow into the handle to cool at least one electrical component provided in the handle.

Abstract: An apparatus for thinning and reducing the surface roughness of a substrate, a method for thinning and reducing the surface roughness of a substrate and a method of reducing the thickness of a substrate are provided herein. The generated etch routine that will provide the target variation in thickness of the substrate and a target average substrate thickness is based on the measured variation in thickness and the measured average substrate thickness of the substrate.

Abstract: A storage solution that provides substantial advantages over existing storage solutions. The storage solution can include a latch system, a rack system or a display system, any one or more of which can be included with a utility box.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for attaching a non-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) to a micro sphere produced by thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) comprising: i) mixing the micro sphere with an aqueous solution to form a first composition; ii) dissolving the non-soluble API in a first solvent and subsequently adding the non soluble API dissolved in the first solvent to the first composition to form a second composition; and iii) mixing the second composition. The invention further relates to a micro sphere produced by thermally induced phase separation which has a non-soluble API bound to its surface and a composition comprising said micro sphere for use in therapy.

Abstract: A semiconductor wafer dicing process is disclosed for dicing a wafer into individual dies. Scribe lines are formed within a polymer coating to expose regions of wafer to form a pre-processed product. The pre-processed product within the chamber is plasma etched to remove the exposed regions of the wafer to separate the individual dies and form a processed product. A frame cover is then removed and the processed product, wafer frame and adhesive tape are exposed to an oxygen plasma within the chamber to partially remove an outermost region of the polymer coating, which is most heavily contaminated with fluorine, to leave a residual polymer coating on the individual dies and form a post-processed product. The residual polymer coating on the individual dies of the post-processed product is then removed.
