The instructions cause the one or more processors to classify the plurality of patients into a plurality of segments describing attitudes and abilities of patients based on execution of a model trained based on a machine learning process and based on the data. The instructions cause the one or more processors to construct a database. The instructions cause the one or more processors to update the database to store classifications of the plurality of patients into the plurality of segments. The instructions cause the one or more processors to construct output data based on the classifications of the plurality of patients into the plurality of segments stored in the database.

Abstract: A supersonic fan has at least two fan blades extending radially from a rim surface of a hub and is circumscribed by a duct. An inboard leading edge having an inboard sweep angle rotates at approximately Mach 1 or greater. A low-pressure zone generates propulsion. An inboard flow regime may migrate outboard from the rim surface and contaminate the low-pressure zone, reducing propulsion. An outboard leading edge having an outboard sweep angle extends radially from the inboard leading edge to form an apex. The inboard and outboard sweep angles are each at least approximately 30 degrees and in the opposite direction. An inboard vortex forming near to and as a result of the apex trails circumferentially across the fan blades and is positioned to substantially confine the inboard flow regime to be inboard of the apex, thereby preserving the low-pressure zone and increasing propulsion for the supersonic fan.

Abstract: A method for bedding a brake disc and/or pad includes monitoring the temperature of the brake disc and/or brake pad throughout the bedding process wherein the monitored temperature is utilized for adjusting the force of the brake pad on the brake disc including the steps of: raising the temperature of the brake pads and/or discs at a controlled rate to a desired bedding temperature; and maintaining the brake pads and/or discs at the bedding temperature. A machine for bedding a brake disc and/or pad is adapted to conduct the method by including at least one temperature sensor monitoring the temperature of a brake disc and/or brake pad throughout the bedding process. The machine regulates the speed of the motor, the pressure of the caliper, or a combination thereof, based on the temperature monitored by the temperature sensors.

Abstract: An apparatus (and method) for sanitizing air includes a generating unit that generates reactive oxygen species and ozone from oxygen in air, received by the generating unit, to be sanitized, and a cancellation unit or conversion filter that cancels at least a portion of the ozone before the air is returned to an area to be sanitized.

Abstract: Aspects of the present embodiments provide an eCommerce environment adapted to accept and process various message types (e.g., cXML and mXML). In general, requests are provided from a requesting entity to an application hosting entity. Data from incoming requests are mapped to a format understandable to an appropriate application(s). Responses from the application(s) are then mapped into a response format acceptable by the requesting entity. To this end, embodiments disclosed herein provide processes for the development and execution of a data driven process for mapping multiple request/response message pairs to a single application interface or set of application interfaces. In one embodiment, these processes are driven by development time and run time documents that describe a development time view of the message pairs and the application interfaces as well as runtime instructions for providing the mappings, respectively.
