Abstract: Some implementations disclosed herein enable matching identifiers across multiple sources. This may involve adding a unique attribute (e.g., anonymous unique homomorphic identifiers) and/or using randomization to enable comparing data from multiple sources, while also maintaining data privacy. In one example, matches across multiple sources are identified, for example, identifying that there are 100 user identifiers that are in private data sets of three different sources. Such matching may be used to enable private, multi-touch attribution. In another example, techniques are used to determine that data maintained by one source is not also within other sources (e.g., identifying that there are 200 user identifiers that are in data from a first source but not in data from a second source and not in data from a third source. Such determinations may be used to generate control group data that does not match data from other sources.

Abstract: Location graph-based derivation of user attributes. Location data associated with a user, such as a current and/or past location at which the user has been, is received. A user attribute data associated with the location data is determined and used to update a user profile associated with the user.

Abstract: There is disclosed a system and method for laser cutting of human allograft tissue. One embodiment includes a laser canister having a housing fabricated with a sterilizable material. The housing defines an interior portion, an exterior portion, and a selectively operable opening into the interior portion. The selectively operable opening includes a hermetic seal to maintain a sterile environment from the exterior portion when the selectively operable opening is closed. The canister includes an infrared (IR) transmissive optical window disposed in the housing and configured to allow a laser beam to penetrate therethrough to the interior portion. The canister also includes an insert within the interior portion configured to support human allograft tissue in a sterile environment, the insert being removable from the housing to move the human allograft tissue into another sterile environment after the housing has been exposed to a non-sterile environment. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: Location graph-based derivation of user attributes is disclosed. In various embodiments, location data associated with a user, such as a current and/or past location at which the user has been, is received. A user attribute data associated with the location data is determined and used to update a user profile associated with the user.

Abstract: There are disclosed systems and methods of debriding tissue. In an embodiment, a system includes a bone tube having an opening sized to receive a bone with tissue disposed thereon, the opening of the bone tube sized to exclude entry of an operator's hand; a spray nozzle configured to emit a water jet into the bone tube; and an outlet from the bone tube. In another embodiment, a method includes assembling a sterile debridement system; placing a sterile mesh bag over a bone tube having an opening sized to receive a bone with tissue disposed thereon, the opening of the bone tube sized to exclude entry of an operator's hand; inserting one end of a bone into the bone tube; actuating a spray nozzle directed into the bone tube, and the water jet configured to debride tissue from the bone within the bone tube. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: A computer implemented apparatus captures data from a user into a form specified in accordance with a markup language such as hypertext markup language. The user selects a data type such as text, handwriting, voice, image and video data type to be captured. Once the user indicates the type of data to be captured, the apparatus enables a transducer associated with the selected data type to capture data. The apparatus also formats data from the transducer into a predetermined format, stores and displays the formatted data in the markup language form.

Abstract: A multiple application switching platform includes a switch having a distributed open architecture and incorporating redundancy for enhanced fault tolerance. The switch includes at least one shelf having a midplane (1) containing message buses and TDM data buses (A and B). Shelves may be interconnected to form a group wherein various circuit cards are connected to each shelf midplane. The circuit cards (4, 5 and 6) perform call processing wherein each card within a group accessing a data bus is pre-assigned a unique set of time slots for each data bus within which that card may transmit onto that data bus. Each circuit card further includes an identification number that enables each card an opportunity to transmit onto a message bus (A and B). The circuit cards (4, 5 and 6) include line or trunk switch cards that function as an independent switch to interface line or trunks to a shelf midplane.
