Abstract: Health care information for multiple patients is processed to classify patients into categories. Additional data fields related to a category in which a patient is classified are added to the patient record. These data fields are populated in part by automatically processing the existing patient data. Such automatic processing can result in a probability that the underlying data supports having a particular value stored in one of the added data fields, and this probability also can be stored. Over time, additional data can be obtained from patients, caregivers and other sources, for structured data fields based on data entry forms for patient reported outcomes, caregiver reported outcomes, events of interest, survival and resource utilization. A set of factor scores is computed for each patient, for each category in which the patient is classified.

Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for modeling a non-relational database as a normalized relational database. In one embodiment, the system identifies a column having a first type in a column-oriented, non-relational database; determines whether the column-oriented, non-relational database includes at least one column having a second type and identifies the one or more columns having the second type; virtually divides the column-oriented, non-relational database based on column type; and generates a normalized, relational model based on the virtual division of the column-oriented, non-relational database, the normalized, relational model including catalog information representing a parent table including the column having the first type and, when the column-oriented, non-relational database includes at least one column having the second type, catalogue information representing a child table, the parent table and child table both represented as relational tables.

Abstract: A data storage and retrieval system stores a collection of data in which a first portion is encrypted using a first cryptographic key, and comprises a second portion encrypting using a second cryptographic key. The data storage and retrieval system receives a request to query the collection on behalf of a security principal. The request comprises information indicative of the first and second keys. The system confirms the authorization of the security principal to access at least some of the collection of data, and generates intermediate results which comprise the encrypted first and second portions. The system causes the intermediate results to be decrypted using the first and second key information.

Abstract: An air vent control system comprises a directional air flow component mounted on a first axis within a first housing, and a second housing defining an inner space in which the first housing is mounted. A first motor moves the directional air flow component to an angular position within the first housing, and a second motor pivots the first housing contained within the second housing. A front and rear opening allows air flow in a direction from the rear opening to the front opening. A controller sets the angular position of the directional air flow component on the first axis, and the angular position of the first housing on the second axis. The respective positions of the directional air flow component relative to the first housing and the first housing relative to the second housing selectively regulate the direction of airflow discharged.
