Abstract: Systems and methods for rapidly and reliably determining an arch width of a patient's dental arch. A three-dimensional (3D) model of a patient's teeth, including a target tooth, can be received. Dental features from the 3D model may be extracted. The dental features may include a point of intersection between an occlusal surface of a tooth and a long axis of the tooth. An arch width between the target tooth and an opposing tooth may be determined based on the extracted dental features.

Abstract: Processing per-use requests for user data is disclosed, including: receiving a use-specific request to read a set of user data; determining whether to grant the use-specific request based at least in part on an access policy associated with an accessor definition associated with the use-specific request; and in response to a determination to grant the use-specific request, transforming the set of user data based at least in part on the accessor definition.

Abstract: Systems and methods for rapidly and reliably determining an arch with of a patient's dental arch. A first portion of a 3D model of a patient's dentition is identified that corresponds to a first target tooth, the first portion of the 3D model is associated with one or more attributes of the first target tooth. A second portion of the 3D model is identified that corresponds to a second target tooth opposing the first target tooth. The second portion is associated with one or more attributes of the second target tooth. The arch width is automatically measured based on the attributes of the first and second target teeth. A graphic representing the arch width is overlayed on the patient's dentition.

Abstract: Token generation and management are disclosed, including: generating a token corresponding to a set of user data based at least in part on a token generation policy; storing a mapping between the token and the set of user data; and determining whether to grant a token resolution request associated with the token based at least in part on a token access policy associated with the token and a context parameter associated with the token resolution request.

Abstract: Systems and methods for rapidly and reliably determining an arch with of a patient's dental arch. A patient's dentition may be scanned and/or segmented. Arch width may be determined between points of intersection on the occlusal surface and a long axis of each tooth between one or more of: canine, first bicuspid, first primary molar, second bicuspid, second primary molar, and permanent first molar. Arch widths of different modified versions of the patient's dentition may be dynamically compared the patient's starting dentition, or to each other, and may be dynamically updated as the user modifies or switches between one or more 3D models of the patient's dentition.

Abstract: A light source in a rotary optical encoder can illuminate a pattern on a rotatable shaft and an optical sensor can detect either the light that is reflected or transmitted based on the pattern. A sampling rate of the optical sensor is dynamically adjusted based on a rotational speed of the rotatable shaft. A pulse rate of the light source may also be dynamically adjusted based on the sampling rate of the optical sensor.

Abstract: An online system enables developers of third-party applications to specify online system users to receive advertisements. The online system generates and sends a user-specific identifier for online system users that use a third-party application when an advertiser associated with the third-party application requests a user-specific identifier from the online system. For example, the online system retrieves user identifying information associated with a client device identifier provided by an advertiser and generates a user identifier by encrypting the retrieved user identifying information. The advertiser may include one or more user-specific identifiers in an advertisement request sent to an online system to present an advertisement in the advertisement request to online system users corresponding to the user-specific identifiers.

Abstract: Techniques for in-app user data authorization are described. An apparatus may comprise a processor circuit, a permissions component, and a token component. The permissions component may be operative on the processor circuit to receive a request from an application to perform a task on a device and to return a response to the request to the application based on active permissions for the application. The token component may be operative on the processor circuit to manage a token database and to determine the active permissions for the application based on the token database. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A social networking system includes a mechanism for integrating user actions on objects outside of the social networking system in the social graph. External system operators include widgets that, when executed by user devices, record user interactions that correspond to a defined structure of actions and objects. Third party operators utilize a tool provided by the social networking system to define the structure of actions and objects. External actions are recorded by the social networking system for publishing to the social graph.

External system operators include widgets that, when executed by user devices, record user interactions that correspond to a defined structure of actions and objects. Third party operators utilize a tool provided by the social networking system to define the structure of actions and objects, verb tenses of action types, and noun forms object types. External actions are recorded by the social networking system for publishing to the social graph in dynamically generated sentences formed using the structure of the actions and objects.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for asset service and maintenance lifecycle management and supply chain planning. Some embodiments commence upon receiving a database record corresponding to an individually identified asset to be individually tracked through a corresponding asset lifecycle. Each individually identified asset has an asset-specific scheduled maintenance plan. During the performance of activities pertaining to the asset-specific scheduled maintenance plan, observations are made and events are recorded to generate a series of observations that are in turn collected into a learning model. The learning model and a predictor based on the learning model is used to predict a future demand or a forecast for items in quantities that are not given in the asset-specific scheduled maintenance plan. In exemplary cases, the forecast comprises items and/or quantities that are not given in the scheduled maintenance plan.

Abstract: This disclosure demonstrates successfully using single, polycrystalline, hot pressed ceramic, and thin film Fe doped binary chalcogenides (such as ZnSe and ZnS) as saturable absorbing passive Q-switches. The method of producing polycrystalline ZnSe(S) yields fairly uniform distribution of dopant, large coefficients of absorption (5-50 cm?1) and low passive losses while being highly cost effective and easy to reproduce. Using these Fe2+:ZnSe crystals, stable Q-switched output was achieved with a low threshold and the best cavity configuration yielded 13 mJ/pulse single mode Q-switched output and 85 mJ in a multipulse regime.

Abstract: A social networking system includes a mechanism for integrating user actions on objects outside of the social networking system in the social graph. For example, streaming music on external systems may be integrated into the user experience on the social networking system. Third-party developers, in addition to administrators of the social networking system, may define objects and actions that enable integration of external music sources to be played and controlled using the social networking system while also providing socially relevant information to other users of the social networking system. Actions and objects recorded from these external user interactions are structured to enable aggregation and structured querying, which enables data visualizations of the information discoverable on the social graph. In this way, interesting information about users' actions outside of the domain of the social networking system may be shared and compared with other users on the social networking system.
