Abstract: An electronic device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface accesses a collection of media items, organized into a hierarchy of granularity levels, each corresponding to a respective timescale. The device displays a first plurality of representations of the media items at a first granularity level, corresponding to a first timescale, and in response to a pinch gesture, replaces the display of the first plurality of representations of the media items with display of a second plurality of representations of the media items at a second granularity level that corresponds to a second timescale that is longer than the first timescale.

Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein enable coordinated pumping operations. An example system may include a treatment fluid system configured to pump a treatment fluid into a wellbore, a pump-down system configured to pump a pump-down fluid into the wellbore to convey a perforating tool, a fluid valve system configured to selectively fluidly connect and disconnect the treatment fluid system and the pump-down system to and from the wellbore, and a controller communicatively connected to the treatment fluid system, the pump-down system, and the fluid valve system. The controller may be configured to monitor operational status of the treatment fluid system, the pump-down system, and the fluid valve system, and control operations of the treatment fluid system, the pump-down system, and the fluid valve system based at least in part on the operational status of the treatment fluid system, the pump-down system, and the fluid valve system.

Abstract: A video is segmented into a plurality of sequences corresponding to different facial states performed by a patient in the video. For each sequence, displacement of a plurality of groups of landmarks of a face of the patient is tracked, to obtain, for each group of the plurality of groups, one or more displacement measures characterizing positions of the landmarks of the group. The one or more displacement measures corresponding to each group are provided into a corresponding neural network, to obtain a landmark feature. The neural networks corresponding to each group are different from one another. A sequence score for the sequence is determined based on a plurality of landmark features corresponding to the groups. A plurality of sequence scores are provided into a machine learning component, to obtain a patient score. A disease state of the patient is determined based on the patient score.

Abstract: A method for designing a sound waveguide surface is described. The method includes the steps of forming a parametric model of the sound waveguide surface where the parametric model has at least one input parameter and then simulating a sound field that is formed by the sound waveguide surface. A frequency dependent spatial distribution measure is then determined for the sound field associated with the sound waveguide surface and the at least one input parameter is varied to change the sound waveguide surface to adjust the value of the frequency dependent spatial distribution measure.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of detecting a neurodegenerative disease in a mammal by activating brain tissue of the mammal by application of radiation under conditions effective to promote a simultaneous multiphoton excitation of the brain tissue and to emit a fluorescence characteristic. The fluorescence characteristic is then compared to a standard fluorescence emitted by exciting healthy brain tissue of the mammal under the same conditions used to carry out the activating step. Brain tissue where the fluorescence characteristic differs from the standard fluorescence is identified as potentially having a neurodegenerative disease. Another aspect of the present invention is directed to a method of producing an image of brain tissue from a mammal by activating brain tissue of a mammal with radiation applied under conditions effective to promote a simultaneous multiphoton excitation of the brain tissue and to produce fluorescence.
