Abstract: Systems and methods for self-driving collision prevention are presented. The system comprises a self-driving vehicle safety system, having one or more sensors in communication with a control system. The control system is configured determine safety fields and instruct the sensors to scan a region corresponding to the safety fields. The control system determines exclusion regions, and omits the exclusion regions from the safety field. The safety system may also include capability reduction parameters that can be used to constrain the drive system of the vehicle, for example, by restricting turning radius and speed in accordance with the safety fields.

Abstract: Examples of the disclosure are directed toward generating a causation score with respect to an agent and an outcome, and projecting a future causation score distribution. For example, a causation score may be determined with respect to a hypothesis that a given agent causes a given outcome, and the score may indicate the acceptance of that hypothesis in the scientific community, as described by scientific literature. A future causation score distribution, then, may indicate a probability distribution over possible future causation scores, thereby predicting the scientific acceptance of the hypothesis at some specific date in the future. A future causation score distribution can be projected by first generating one or more future publication datasets, and then determining causation scores for each of the one or more future publication datasets.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for enhancing the therapeutic effects of a neurotoxin, e.g., a botulinum toxin, where the methods comprise a “wash-down” (e.g., a decreased intake) of a current pain medication and an administration of a neurotoxin. In some embodiments, the present inventions relates to methods for enhancing the therapeutic effects of a neurotoxin for treating pain, e.g., headache pain.

Abstract: Described herein are methods of preventing, modulating and treating spasticity and maladaptive neuronal plasticity in patients having upper motor neuron lesions or have had a traumatic central nervous system event by early intervention methods. The methods comprise the step of administering a therapeutically effective amount of a botulinum toxin or derivative thereof to least a portion of a 1A sensory afferent of at least one muscle prior to development of spasticity or maladaptive neuronal plasticity becomes clinically apparent. The therapeutically effective amount of botulinum toxin administered to the 1A afferent of the muscle does not substantially affect the Golgi tendons therein.
