  • Patent number: 11055337
    Abstract: There are provided contextual image presentation systems and methods. Such a system includes a hardware processor and a system memory having stored therein a contextual image generator including a data mapping module and a data visualization module. The contextual image generator receives social media data describing social media posts, determines a geographical location corresponding to at least some of the social media posts, and identifies a subject category corresponding respectively to each of the social media posts. In addition, the contextual image generator groups the social media posts into social media collections based on at least one of the subject category and the geographical location corresponding to each social media post. The contextual image generator further generates a contextual image that visually associates at least one of the social media collections with the subject category and/or the geographical location used to group that social media collection.

  • Patent number: 9918656
    Abstract: An implantable magnetic relaxation sensor is provided that comprises superparamagnetic nanoparticies functionalized with one or more agents that bond with a biomarker of interest. The sensor is configured for minimally-invasive implantation into a human or animal, and is configured to indicate the implanted sensor's cumulative exposure to the biomarker of interest by analysis using magnetic resonance relaxometry.
