The GUI responsive to using the controls can a) switch GUI views; b) receive and display participants data; c) receive and display visit schedule and travel policy associated with the first participant and with the first study; d) receive input data from the input device and cause the DB to update the studies data, participants data, travel policies, and visit schedules with the input data. DB may store a second participant.

Abstract: Systems for visualization and management of a study have an input device, a user interface, controls, and a database storing a visit schedule about the study and visit data about a participant. Visit schedule has a first node and second node. The participant visit data has a current visit associated with the first node. The user interface visually associates the first node with a first graphic and with a current visual attribute, and the second node with a second graphic. Responsive to the controls, the user interface associates the second node with the current visit and visually associates the current node graphic with the second node. Visit schedule may have a third node selected from a jump, cycle, exit, and other nodes. The third node is associated with an occurred visit in the visit data, and the user interface can visually associate an occurred visual attribute with the third node.

Abstract: A privacy enabled system for managing clinical study participant travel has a database (stores data: clinical study, participant, clinical site and trip data sets) and a graphical user interface that has a Travel Planning Interface and is in data communication with an input device and the database. The data sets include a Study Travel Policy, a Study Visit Schedule (appointment procedure, appointment schedule), a traveler profile, traveler personal data (traveler contact information), a site appointment location associated with the appointment procedure, and site contact information. The travel planning interface receives the trip data set (trip segment data) from the database and the input device. The travel planning interface transmits the trip segment data to and receives booked travel data from a travel booking module, generates an itinerary that has booked travel and trip segment data, and transmits the itinerary according to the traveler contact information and the site contact information.

Abstract: Systems for visualization and management of a travel policy for a clinical study have a study dataset having a first travel policy condition, a study travel policy dataset having a main travel policy and a specialized travel policy, and a GUI having a travel policies interface and a travel policy control. The first travel policy condition may be a country, a clinical site, a traveler policy label, a visit attribute, a visit policy label, and combinations thereof. The specialized travel policy (a country policy, a site policy, a first visit policy, a second visit policy, a custom policy, and combinations thereof) is programmatically associated with the first travel policy condition.

Abstract: A system receives and executes a sequence of tensor instructions, for example, instructions for performing a neural network computation. The system may be implemented as a multiprocessor architecture, for example, hardware for performing a neural network computation. A tensor instruction specifies a tensor computation receiving one or more input tensors for determining an output tensor. The system stores a decimal position associated with a plurality of values of a tensor. The system performs the tensor computation of a tensor instruction to determine a plurality of values of the output tensor. The system collects statistics describing the plurality of values of the output tensor and determines a decimal position for the plurality of values based on the collected statistics.
