Abstract: A computer implemented method and system for identifying and visualizing features correlated with cancer subtypes, includes the steps of receiving a set of medical images representing an area including a patient's lesion, applying a classification model trained on lesions with known pathology by mathematically combining the model's learned weights with said medical images to produce a score indicating the likelihood of the lesion being of each particular cancer subtype, extracting importance maps from said classification model indicating features correlated with each cancer subtype by tracing the output of the model through the learned weights to identify regions of the input with a strong influence on the classification score for each cancer subtype, and displaying said importance maps visually on a computing device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to computer implemented methods and system for determining relevance measures for computational resources based on their relatedness to a user's interests. The methods and systems are designed to accept as inputs a collection of unstructured textual data related to resources, and a structured graph of the relationships between resources, to calculate probability distributions of resources over latent communities discovered from the unstructured textual data, to activate the structured graph with these probability distributions, and to spread this activation throughout the graph in a fixed number of iterations. The result of these methods and of the systems implementing these methods is a set of relevance measures attached to the resources in the structured graph.

Abstract: Systems and methods for electrical component, e.g., brush, manufacture are provided that control grain orientation. The systems and methods utilize hot pressing techniques to enhance the properties and functionalities of the electrical components/brushes. An intermediate work product characterized by a grain orientation is initially formed through a conventional pressing technique. The conventionally-pressed intermediates are positioned within a cavity/die with the grain orientation in a predetermined orientation relative to the hot press force to be applied thereto. The hot pressed final product exhibits superior resistivity, strength and apparent density/durability. Surface features may be formed on the face(s) of the final work product during the hot pressing step that cannot be achieved in conventional processing techniques. Multi-layered assemblies are provided that may be cross-linked or inter-bonded along an interface therebetween. Advantageous articles of manufacture, e.g.

Abstract: An IC card reader that can output data in an audio form. The IC card reader includes a small portable case in which an IC card can be inserted. A microcontroller powered by a battery within the case reads the stored data from the IC card and encodes the read data into a series of voice commands. A voice synthesizer circuit produces a synthetic speech signal from the encoded data. Thus, in use of the IC card reader, when a button is depressed to close a switch, the microcontroller is caused to interrogate the card so that the data stored on the card is read into the microcontroller. The microcomputer produces a synthetic speech signal that is amplified by the amplifier and output by the speaker as synthetic speech which can be heard by the user by holding the card reader with the speaker against the user's ear.

Abstract: An apparatus for compressing and expanding digital data including a compressor module for compressing original data and an expander module for expanding the compressed data to substantially recover the original data. The compressor module includes a reduced resolution data set (RRDS) generator providing low pass filtering and decimation (down sampling) of the original data, and a one-dimensional delta pulse code modulation (DPCM) compressor performing either three or four bit encoding on the data output from the RRDS generator. The expander module includes a DPCM expander performing either three or four bit decoding of the data output from the compressor module, an RRDS expander providing interpolation (up-sampling) of the expanded data output from the DPCM expander, and an edge enhancement filter for processing the data output from the RRDS expander to correct for any RRDS introduced signal and texture errors.
