Abstract: A method for providing a restricted service and a communications device, where the method includes: receiving, by a policy control function (PCF), an identifier of a terminal and indication information, where the indication information is used to indicate that the terminal is in a state of exception or indicate an exception type of the terminal; and sending, by the PCF, the identifier of the terminal and a first restricted service policy according to the indication information, where the first restricted service policy is used to provide a restricted service for the terminal.

Abstract: Described herein are methods for distinguishing between somatic and germline variants, and devices for implementing such methods. In certain implementation of the methods, the method can include identifying a genomic sequence of interest in a patient sample at a genomic locus; identifying one or more proxy genomic sequences for the sequence of interest; comparing an observed frequency of the sequence of interest to a centrality measure of observed frequencies of the one or more proxy genomic sequences; and based on the comparison, characterizing the genomic sequence of interest as either germline or somatic.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products for generating an enhanced set of sequences for taxonomical classification are disclosed. In various embodiments, a plurality of reference sequences are received. Each of the plurality of reference sequences corresponds to a taxonomical classification. A label corresponding to at least one of the reference sequences is assigned to each of a plurality of supplemental sequences. Each of the plurality of supplemental sequences and each of the plurality of reference sequences are truncated to a region of interest to thereby generate a truncated set of sequences. Similarity is measured between pairs of truncated sequences in the truncated set of sequences to determine whether the similarity is above a predetermined threshold. An intermediate taxonomical label is assigned to the pair of truncated sequences in the truncated set of sequences when the similarity is above the predetermined threshold to thereby generate an enhanced set of sequences.
