Abstract: A method of deception detection based upon ocular information of a subject provides a video camera configured to record a close-up view of a subject's eye. A cognitive state model is configured to determine a high to a low cognitive load experienced by the subject. An emotional state model is configured to determine a high to a low state of arousal experienced by the subject. After asking a question, the ocular information is processed to identify changes in ocular signals of the subject. The cognitive state and emotional state models are evaluated based solely on the changes in ocular signals where a probability of the subject being either truthful or deceptive is estimated for a binary output.

Abstract: Provided are stimulation devices for improving ambulatory activity of a subject in need thereof. The device includes a foot covering for holding two battery-operated tactile actuators on a metatarsal region and an ankle region of the wearer's foot. The foot covering also includes a detachable material for housing and securing the two tactile actuators and a pouch region for holding electronics.

Abstract: Systems (100) and methods (300) for efficient spatial feature data analysis. The methods involve simultaneously generating chip images using image data defining at least a first image and video chips using video data defining at least a first video stream. Thereafter, an array is displayed which comprises grid cells in which at least a portion of the chip images is presented, at least a portion of the video chips is presented, or a portion of the chip images and a portion of the video chips are presented. Each chip image comprises a panned-only view, a zoomed-only view, or a panned-and-zoomed view of the first image including a visual representation of at least one first object of a particular type. Each of the video chips comprises a segment of the first video stream which include a visual representation of at least one second object of the particular type.

Abstract: Compositions and kits comprising a nucleotide sequence that encodes GHRH and a nucleotide sequence that encodes GnRH and compositions and kits comprising a GHRH protein and GnRH protein are disclosed. Use of such compositions and kits in methods of enhancing fertility in mammals comprising the step of administering said compositions to the mammal are disclosed.

Abstract: Systems (100) and methods (300) for efficient spatial feature data analysis. The methods involve simultaneously generating two or more chip images (904) using image data defining a first image (508); concurrently displaying an array (906) comprising all or a portion of the chip images in a plug-in window (702); and displaying in the plug-in window information relating to an attribute (a1, a2) of a feature (A5) contained in a selected one of the displayed chip images (1002). The chip images are generated in response to a user selection of a feature (A1) contained in at least a portion of the first image displayed in an application window (504). Each of the chip images comprises a panned view, a zoomed view, or a panned-and-zoomed view of the first image including one or more features of a user-selected feature class.

Abstract: Systems (100) and methods (300, 3200, 3500) for analyzing topographical models. The methods involve receiving a user input selecting a first content type from a plurality of content types. In response to the reception of the user input, First Model Chips (“FMCs”) are simultaneously generated using terrain elevation data defining a First Topographical Model (“FTM”). Each FMC (1304) comprises at least one of a panned-only view, a zoomed-only view, and a panned-and-zoomed view of FTM (400, 500, 3304, 3306) including at least one item (402-406, 1310) of the first content type that is different from all other items of all other FMCs. Thereafter, a first screen page (1302, 3400) is displayed on a display screen of a computing device. The first screen page comprises a first array (1306, 3404) defined by a plurality of first cells (1308, 3406). Each of the first cells has one of FMCs presented therein.

Abstract: One aspect of the current invention is a method of preventing and/or treating arthritis and/or preventing or treating lameness in a subject. Additionally, subject quality of life and welfare, and body condition scores are improved by utilizing methodology that administers the nucleic acid expression construct encoding a GHRH or functional biological equivalent to a subject through a parenteral route of administration. Following a single dose of nucleic acid expression vector, subjects are healthier and effects are demonstrated long term without additional administration(s) of the expression construct.
