  • Publication number: 20200154392
    Abstract: The technology relates to generating a wireless network access point model for determining locations within an area. In one example, a plurality of scan vectors, each scan vector representing a set of signal strengths for a set of wireless network access point identifiers and being associated with a location within the area at which a mobile device moving through the area measured the set of signal strengths are received. A set of clusters is generated by iterating through a split phase until the number of clusters in the set of clusters equals a maximum number of clusters or there are no bad scan vectors identified. A bad scan vector may include a vector having a vector difference from a center of a cluster to which that vector is assigned is less than a minimum similarity value. The set of cluster is then used to generate the model of the area.

  • Publication number: 20200149085
    Abstract: Rapid methods that identify sepsis-causing bacteria or yeast aid the physician in critical therapeutic decision-making, thus decreasing patient mortality rates. The methods described herein employ plating microorganisms directly on to a MALDI-MS plate, adding concentrated formic acid, and identifying the microorganism by mass spectrometry. Optionally, an organic solvent may be combined with the formic acid, or added to the sample before or after the concentrated formic acid is added thereto. The methods enable direct extraction of proteins from microorganisms without the need for liquid protein extraction methods and yields positive identification results for gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria and yeast in minutes.

  • Publication number: 20200151884
    Abstract: A technique is disclosed for automating tracking of annotated objects and improves the throughput and efficiency of existing methods while maintaining a degree of accuracy comparable to a human annotator. In particular, the disclosed technique provides an automated annotated object tracking tool that allows machine-learning teams to annotate an object within a frame and have that annotation persist across frames as the annotated object is tracked within a series of frames, still ensuring that every frame is accurately reviewed by a human where high quality annotation is required. This technique incorporates human feedback via a user adjustment that allows the tool to adapt and improve its accuracy in tracking an annotated object across a sequence of frames.
