Abstract: An assay system is useful for predicting recurrence and/or non-recurrence of colorectal cancer in a patient. The assay system is adapted to analyze a patient sample for quantitative expression of a prognostic genetic profile correlated with colorectal cancer recurrence. The profile includes the expression of the nucleic acid sequences of SEQ ID NOS: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for providing protection of media by the detection of unauthorized client behaviors and the communication of the unauthorized client behaviors to augment the invention's detection abilities. A variety of detectors are sent to a client process and the responses are evaluated to detect the presence of an unauthorized software behavior on the client. Unauthorized behaviors include alteration of a client process as well as simultaneously running processes that might enable unauthorized copying of protected media. Communication of unauthorized software behaviors includes sharing of memory detectors among servers on a network, and the sending of memory detectors to other clients to detect previously unseen unauthorized behaviors on the other clients.

Abstract: A method for identifying a media file transmitted over a network includes creating a plurality of known media file identifiers, each for a respective one of a plurality of known media files, using an identifier generating algorithm, storing the known media file identifiers in a database, creating a media file identifier for an unknown media file with the identifier generating algorithm and comparing the media file identifier for the unknown media file with known media file identifiers in order to produce an identification of the unknown media file.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for solving a programming problem using genetic programming techniques. A fitness function measures the relative superiority of a first solution with respect to a second solution. The genetic programming system creates multiple program gene strings containing graph reduction operators. Each program gene string represents a potential solution to the programming problem being solved. Input data is applied to each program gene string to generate a solution for each gene string. Each program gene string is evaluated by comparing the solution to the fitness function. The program gene strings are evolved based on the evaluation of their fitness. The gene strings are repeatedly evolved until a termination criteria has been satisfied.
