Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for tailoring related episode content within an episode, thereby improving a user's experience. In response to receiving a request for an episode, several factors may be considered when determining how much of the related episode content to provide. These factors may include information such as whether the user has already viewed a previous episode, the elapsed time since viewing the previous episode and a user preference. Related episode content may be modified to remove portions previously viewed by a user, depending on factors such as the elapsed time and a user preference.

Abstract: Methods that implement image-guided tissue analysis, MRI-based computational modeling, and imaging informatics to analyze the diversity and dynamics of molecularly-distinct subpopulations and the evolving competitive landscapes in human glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”) are provided. Machine learning models are constructed based on multiparametric MRI data and molecular data (e.g., CNV, exome, gene expression). Models can also be built based on specific biological factors, such as sex and age. Inputting MRI data into the trained predictive models generates maps that depict spatial patterns of molecular markers, which can be used to quantify and co-localize regions molecularly distinct subpopulations in tumors and other regions, such as the non-enhancing parenchyma, or brain around tumor (“BAT”) regions.

Abstract: The first objective comparison of automated and human segmentation of magnetic resonance images, or MRI, using a blinded controlled assessment study. Computers connected over a network divide duties including computerized segmenting of the images, manual segmenting of the images, comparison of the computer segmented images and the manually segmented images, and scoring of the images for accuracy. The scores are evaluated to update configuration parameters of a neural network.

Abstract: A filament container for housing a spool of filament comprising a base and a lid that define an inner volume. The lid rotatably attached to the base and moveable between a closed position, wherein the inner volume is substantially sealed, and an open position, wherein the inner volume is accessible. First and second horizontal shafts are supported rotatably within the inner volume, parallel to and spaced from one another a distance, and rotatable about a respective longitudinal axis. The first and second horizontal shafts are adapted to support a spool of filament vertically within the inner volume and to allow the spool of filament to freely rotate about a horizontal axis that is parallel to and spaced from the longitudinal axis of each of the first and second horizontal shafts as filament is pulled from the spool and out of the filament container.
