Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods are provided to delivery force sensing within provisional prosthesis and surgical instruments. A system can include a universal force sensor module and a trial prosthesis. The universal force sensor module can include an upper module cover, a module base, a force sensor, a circuit board, and a battery. The upper module cover can include a cover flex section surrounding a cover instrument contact surface. The module base can include a sensor support structure and be configured to receive a cover perimeter section of the upper module cover. The force sensor can be disposed within the module base and supported by the sensor support structure. The circuit board can be electrically coupled to the force sensor and the battery. The trial prosthesis can include a sensor module cavity adapted to securely retain the universal force sensor module.

Abstract: Methods and systems for searching through databases of items are described. In some cases, the system presents a display of searched items. The system may present a customizable interface of displayed search results, where a range of values displayed may be customizable. Further, the displayed attributes of searched items may be customizable. Other search and display functions are also disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for relevance scoring are provided. Traditional scoring models use word frequency and placement to determine relevance. In contrast to these models, embodiments of the present invention provide cluster-based relevance scoring and tagging. Some embodiments use various cluster mappings and vector space models to generate relevance scores. In addition, the cluster mappings can be updated overtime to reflect a change in topic clustering.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a reforming device. A reforming device according to the present invention includes a main body that is locked to bones of a human body and of which a length is extensible depending on growth of the human body; an external controller that transmits a wireless control signal for a length of the main body to be extended inside of the human body; and an internal controller that is mounted inside of the human body and extends the length of the main body depending on the wireless control signal.

Abstract: A method and system for retrieving and displaying a HTML document. The method can include retrieving the HTML documents from a first source, formatting the HTML document, storing and mapping the HTML document in a database index, and displaying the HTML document. In addition, the method and system can include a query engine to find at least one additional HTML document related to the HTML document.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for facilitating a search for sets of gems includes, in one embodiment, a computer-readable medium having a gem search module configured to facilitate a search for a set of N matching gems (where N may be an integer of at least two). The gem search module provides a user-interface element representing a set of values of a gem attribute, receives a selection of a particular value from the set of values, and identifies a set of N matching gems as being associated with that value.

Abstract: An apparatus as provided for onsite generation of oxygen and the generation of high pressure oxygen for use in contaminant remediation. Multiple low horsepower compressors are utilized to generate a high pressure source of oxygen received from an oxygen generator for injection of high concentration oxygen gas into an environment needing remediation from contaminants.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided of adding ozone and ozone and oxygen and ozone and another oxidizer such as chlorine dioxide or an acidifying agent to contaminated environments including high pressure work sites such as wells and sewage pipes and into high temperature solutions such as scrubber water. An apparatus is provided for on-site generation of oxygen and the generation of high pressure oxygen for use in contaminant remediation.

Abstract: A system or method consistent with an embodiment of the present invention is useful in analyzing large volumes of different types of data, such as textual data, numeric data, categorical data, or sequential string data, for use in identifying relationships among the data types or different operations that have been performed on the data. A system or method consistent with the present invention determines and displays the relative content and context of related information and is operative to aid in identifying relationships among disparate data types. Various data types, such as numerical data, protein and DNA sequence data, categorical information, and textual information, such as annotations associated with the numerical data or research papers may be correlated for visual analysis. A variety of user-selectable views may be correlated for user interaction to identify relationships that exist among the different types of data or various operations performed on the data.

Abstract: An engine control system for a vehicle engine includes an engine control module (ECM) that enters a modified sleep mode when the vehicle key switch is turned to the "off" position. In the modified sleep mode, all non-essential operating tasks normally executed by the ECM are disabled to place the ECM in a mode of reduced power consumption. In addition, various communications interrupts are disabled, except for interrupts associated with at least one external data transmission device. During the modified sleep mode, priority for communications with the external device are highest to permit external communication to and from the ECM using the external device. In this modified sleep mode, the vehicle operator or engine technician can download or upload data to and from the ECM memory. The ECM includes a sleep mode task module that is maintained during the modified sleep mode. The sleep mode task module controls a sleep mode termination timer (SMT timer) that counts the time the ECM is in the modified sleep mode.
