Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to adverse user behavior detection and mitigation. In examples, a user account of a social platform may be trusted or untrusted. If the user account is untrusted, activity of the user account may be buffered so as to not directly affect social metrics of the social platform. For example, if the untrusted user account follows a target user account, the untrusted user account may be added to a separate set of followers or otherwise separated from a set of trusted followers of the target user account. Eventually, each user account in the separate set is evaluated to determine whether the user account has transitioned to a trusted user. If the user account is now trusted, it may be migrated to the set of trusted followers. However, if the user account is untrusted, it may be removed from the separate set, thereby reverting the activity.

Abstract: An electrical machining device is provided for machining a surface of a workpiece. The electrical machining device includes a nozzle connectable to an electrolyte reservoir, the nozzle configured to dispense electrolyte towards a surface of a workpiece, in use, and an electrolyte flow path for conveying electrolyte from an electrolyte reservoir to the nozzle. The electrolyte flow path has a gas inlet therealong and the electrical machining device is configured to inject a gas into electrolyte flowing along the electrolyte flow path via the gas inlet, in use, so as to form gas bubbles in said electrolyte.

Abstract: Technologies and implementations for a defibrillator electrode having communicative capabilities are generally disclosed.

Abstract: An electro-discharge machining (EDM) device that includes a housing, an erosion electrode, a ground electrode, and a dielectric inlet. The housing is configured to be positioned on a surface of a workpiece and proximal to a fastener to be eroded. The planar erosion electrode is positioned at least partially within the housing, with the erosion electrode being movable relative to the housing in a first axis. The first axis is substantially normal to a longitudinal axis of the fastener. The ground electrode is conductively connected to the fastener. The dielectric inlet is configured to deliver a dielectric fluid to a region between the erosion electrode and the fastener.

Abstract: A platform for implementing a method of aggregating and contextualizing metrics relevant to developing, launching and marketing a target therapeutic or related therapy. The method of processing the metrics includes retrieving data related to the target from one or more data sources and synthesizing the retrieved target data in a contextual manner and creating synthesized target data by converting unstructured data into structured data including an event, wherein an event comprises a corpus of data from a single source on a single date. The synthesized target data is stored in a target specific database and a user may query the database regarding the target, where the query includes at least one search parameter. The user query is processed against the synthesized target data in the target specific database and the results are presented to the user.

Abstract: Medical device, system, method for capturing medical images includes an image capture and processing portion and an interchangeable medical tool portion. The image capture and processing portion is configured to capture and process a photo image, a video stream of images, or a coded image. The interchangeable medical tool portion is configured to connect to the image capture and processing portion. The image capture and processing portion further includes a configuration module configured to detect a connection of the medical tool portion to the image capture and processing portion, determine the type of the interchangeable medical tool portion connected, and adapt the image capture and processing portion to the detected type of the medical tool portion. The medical device may transmit medical images to an external device for interpretation by an expert, providing coaching to the user of the medical device, and for asset management, decision support, and/or other purposes.

Abstract: A computing architecture, system and method are disclosed for use in a medical device for providing decision support to a caregiver. The computing architecture includes a memory, a processor in communication with the memory, and an instance of a primary rules-based service configured to provide instruction events, the instance providing a primary processing thread of instruction events for coaching treatment of a patient. A software manager module includes an artificial intelligence architecture. The artificial intelligence architecture is configured to provide an instance of a conditional rules-based service for providing instruction events. The instance provided by the artificial intelligence architecture provides a processing thread of instruction events for coaching treatment of a patient that is independent of the primary processing thread and is configured to trigger an action on the occurrence of a pre-defined set of input conditions.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a dry, self-supporting fibrous material, the fibers of which have been treated with a binder composition. The fibrous material can be slit into tapes or tows that are suitable for use in an Automated Tape Laying (ATL) or Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) process. This fibrous material is suitable for forming preforms which are configured to receive a matrix resin by resin infusion in the manufacturing of structural composite parts.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure are directed towards providing feedback to users of multi-user system that has biometric recognition capabilities, so that a user knows whether the system has correctly associated the user with his or her identity. The feedback may include a display of a current camera view, along with visible identity information that is associated with each user in the view. The feedback may include per-user icons (e.g., tiles, thumbnail images and so on) by which a user visually confirms that he or she is correctly recognized. Any misrecognition may be detected via the feedback and corrected. Feedback may convey other information, such as the current interaction state/capabilities of a user.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for enhancing the cytotoxicity of DNA damage in cancer cells that express thymine DNA glycosylase, and treating tumors accordingly. The methods comprise inhibiting the expression or biologic activity of thymine DNA glycosylase, and inducing DNA damage in the cancer cells. DNA damage may be induced by administration of bendamustine or gemcitabine to the cancer cells.
