Abstract: Drug delivery connectors are provided for permitting and blocking fluid flow between a container and a catheter connector or other drug delivery site. Embodiments of the drug delivery connectors include a ball valve for forming a releasable seal within the drug delivery connectors. In one or more embodiments, the ball valve prevents fluid flow between an open proximal end and an open distal end of the drug delivery connector and is movable in a proximal direction to release the releasable seal to permit fluid flow from the open proximal direction to the open distal direction. Methods of delivering medication to a catheter connector that includes an actuator are also provided.

Abstract: The embodiments provide a federated system for supporting an application to perform analytics. The federated system includes a first distributed system for performing one or more first tasks including processing incoming data into a set of data blocks, an in-memory database system for performing one or more second tasks including receiving the set of data blocks from the first distributed system and storing the set of data blocks in an internal storage, and a second distributed system for performing one or more third tasks including receiving at least one data block of the set from the in-memory database system and performing analytics on the at least one data block. Execution of the first, second, and third tasks are controlled via a scripting language utilized by the application and associated with the in-memory database system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compounds that inhibit Lp-PLA2 activity, processes for their preparation, to compositions containing them and to their use in the treatment of diseases associated with the activity of Lp-PLA2, for example atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and/or diabetic macular edema.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a valve system for an inflatable portion of an indwelling medical device and more particularly to a valve system for fluid regulation of a catheter comprising a fluid inflatable portion that undergoes pressure changes within the body during use.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling a navigator are disclosed herein. The apparatus includes a natural voice command acquisition unit, an information acquisition unit, a speech language understanding unit, a related information extraction unit, and a dialogue management control unit. The natural voice command acquisition unit obtains a natural voice command from a user. The information acquisition unit obtains vehicle data including information about the operation of the navigator and information about the state of the vehicle. The speech language understanding unit converts the natural voice command into a user intention that can be understood by a computer. The related information extraction unit extracts related information that corresponds to the user intention. The dialogue management control unit generates a response to the natural voice command based on the related information, the user intention and a dialogue history, and controls the navigator in accordance with the conversation response.

Abstract: According to example embodiments, an automatic packing apparatus includes at least one box supply unit configured to move a box stack upwards such that a product is inserted into a packing box of the box stack, the packing box being the uppermost box of the box stack, an inlet formation unit configured to lift the upper surface of the packing box to form an inlet on at least one unbonded side surface of the packing box, a product supply unit configured to transfer the product to the inlet; and a side surface bonding unit configured to bond the at least one unbonded side surface of the packing box. The at least one unbonded side surface includes the inlet and the packing box includes the product inserted therein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a translation function and discloses an automatic translation operating device, including: at least one of voice input devices which collects voice signals input by a plurality of speakers and a communication module which receives the voice signals; and a control unit which controls to classify voice signals by speakers from the voice signals and cluster the speaker based voice signals classified in accordance with a predefined condition and then perform voice recognition and translation and a method thereof and a system including the same.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for translating a language based on a user's reaction, the system includes an interface unit which inputs uttered sentences of the first user and the second user and outputs the translated result; a translating unit which translates the uttered sentences of the first user and the second user; a conversation intention recognizing unit which figures out a conversation intention of the second user from the reply of the second user for a translation result of the utterance of the first user; a translation result evaluating unit which evaluates the translation of the uttered sentence of the first user based on the conversation intention of the second user which is determined by the conversation intention recognizing unit; and a translation result evaluation storing unit which stores the translation result and an evaluation of the translation result.
