  • Patent number: 10898100
    Abstract: Electrical impedance myography (EIM) can be used for the assessment and diagnosis of muscular disorders. EIM includes applying an electrical signal to a region of tissue and measuring a resulting signal. A characteristic of the region of tissue is determined based on the measurement. Performing EIM at different frequencies and/or different angular orientations with respect to a muscle can aid in the assessment and diagnosis. Devices are described that facilitate assessment and diagnosis using EIM.

  • Publication number: 20150324194
    Abstract: A system and method for modeling code segments that do not have a location is disclosed. Source code may be indexed and modeled in a data graph with nodes representing code elements and edges representing relationships between nodes. However, some code elements may be hidden or implicit and therefore may lack location information. In these cases, code figments are created and represented as nodes in the graph. Figment nodes may be specially designated so that the figment nodes may be easily distinguished from real source code nodes. The graph is then updated to include location information for the code figments in the nodes that interact with the hidden or implicit code. The data graph may then be provided to a user or as a service to be used by coding tools.

  • Patent number: 8782595
    Abstract: A build system and method, including receiving attribute rules and new rules, wherein the attribute rules correspond to one or more predefined default actions of the build system, wherein the new rules specify new actions that are to be added to the build system. A graph is generated to include files specified as attributes in the attributes rules and the one or more predefined default actions that correspond to the attributes rules. A request to enable at least one of the new rules is received. Action listener rules are received, wherein the action listener rules indicate default actions and corresponding new rules of the one or more new rules. The graph is checked for default actions that are indicated in the action listener rules. Additional actions are added to the graph for new rules based on the default actions indicated in the action listener rules.

  • Publication number: 20100115435
    Abstract: The invention pertains to the user-directed classification of multi-parameter data streams with a computer program that allows users to “paint” events in one of several linked n-dimensional views of the data set. The events that are painted in one view of the data are also painted with the same color in the other views. By combining primary colors with multiple paint operations, individual data clusters can be identified by the user. A limited solution was taught by Conrad, et al. that allowed the binary addition of primary colors in the paint operations and allowed the identification of only eight unique populations. The present invention extends the solution by allowing multiple effective paint operations with the primary colors thus allowing the identification of an almost limitless number of unique populations. A logical and predictable progression of resultant colors is maintained for data display to the user.

  • Patent number: 4055954
    Abstract: A damper actuator for use in a ventilation system typically used in an air conditioning system to activate the damper or damper assembly in response to an electrical signal. More particularly, a heat motor rotatably coupled at one end to a lever or lever assembly and rotatably coupled at its other end to a stationary frame. A spring may also be coupled to the lever or lever assembly and to the frame when necessary to provide a force to return the lever or lever assembly to its initial position or configuration. By means of a rotatable coupling at each end of the heat motor, stresses transverse to the longitudinal axis of the heat motor, are substantially eliminated and the operational life of the heat motor is significantly increased.

  • Patent number: 4011101
    Abstract: A washing system combines a dishwashing assembly and a washable kitchen exhaust hood assembly by means of common use of a sump and pump. The pump selectively communicates with the dishwashing assembly and exhaust hood assembly through a bypass valve or diverting valve assembly having an input and two outputs. An exhaust fan connected by means of a duct system to the exhaust hood assembly is disenabled. The sump is filled with a detergent solution and the pump is activated to distribute the detergent solution within the washable exhaust hood assembly. A control means sequences additional valving to operate through a plurality of wash, rinse, and flush cycles. After the hood wash cycles are completed, the exhaust fan is activated and the bypass valve or diverting valve assembly is selectively activated to cause the pump and sump together with additional controlled valving, to sequence and operate the dishwashing assembly.
