Publication number: 20240127451Abstract: Described herein are methods and computer systems for classification of CD8 T-cell topology using a patient response-based linear cutoff model. A plurality of histology images of tissue samples in a plurality of patients are received by a computer system. An image analysis of the plurality of histology images is performed to obtain a CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma in each of the plurality of histology images. Real inflammation scores and tumor infiltration scores are determined based on a polar coordinate transformation of the CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma. Based on the real inflammation scores and tumor infiltration scores, a feature space is generated, and linear boundaries or linear cutoffs between a plurality of classifications in the feature space are identified based on the real inflammation scores, the tumor infiltration scores, and patient response data.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: Bristol-Myers Squibb CompanyInventors: George C. Lee, Robin Edwards, Scott Ely, Daniel N. Cohen, John B. Wojcik, Vipul A. Baxi, Dimple Pandya, Jimena Trillo-Tinoco, Benjamin J. Chen, Andrew Fisher, Falon Gray

Publication number: 20230306762Abstract: Described herein are methods and computer systems for classification of CD8 T-cell topology using artificial intelligence and machine learning. A plurality of histology images of tissue samples in a plurality of patients are received by a computer system. An image analysis of the plurality of histology images is performed to obtain a CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma in each of the plurality of histology images. A machine learning algorithm is then trained using results of the image analysis and the CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma. Based on the training, a machine learning feature space comprising a plurality of classifications is generated, and boundaries between the plurality of classifications in the machine learning feature space are identified.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2021Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: Bristol-Myers Squibb CompanyInventors: George C.

Patent number: 10989178Abstract: A method of electricity production using water thermal energy includes compressing an enclosed working fluid at a first vertical position relative to a surface of a body of water to cause the fluid to move to a second vertical position relative to the surface and subsequently move to the first position in a closed loop, an external environment at the second position having a greater temperature than an external environment at the first position such that the fluid transitions between a liquid phase at the first position and a vapor phase at the second position, the compressing using power from a battery, and expanding the fluid at the second position to generate electricity to charge the battery. The first and second positions may be two depths of the body of water or a height of an atmosphere above the body of water and a depth of the body of water.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2019Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Assignee: Seatrec, Inc.Inventors: Jack A.
