摘要:
Functional particulate carrier materials with enhanced retention capabilities are described. The materials comprise at least one functional particulate carrier material subjected to at least one surface treatment, and at least one active ingredient. The at least one surface treatment may be at least one physical surface treatment and/or at least one chemical surface treatment with at least one surface treating agent. The at least one active ingredient may be a biocide, a fungicide, a mildewcide, an antibiotic, an insecticide, a preservative, or an antimicrobial agent. Methods for enhancing the performance of plastics and liquid-based media, for example, coatings and paints, are also described by increasing the retention factors of active ingredients in those plastics and media through surface treatment of functional particulate carrier materials.

Disclosed herein are methods of inhibiting proliferation of a cancer cell or inducing apoptosis of a cancer cell, which does not overexpress N—CoR. Also disclosed herein are methods of inhibiting proliferation or inducing apoptosis of a cancer cell that overexpresses TCTP and methods for determining whether a compound is effective in inducing cell death.

Systems and methods for power conversion are described. For example, a system may include a transformer including a plurality of secondary windings; a first set of switches connecting respective taps of the plurality of secondary windings to a first terminal; a second set of switches connecting the respective taps of the plurality of secondary windings to a second terminal; and an electrical load connected between the first terminal and the second terminal.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for run-time user control of system-generated content. A user is presented with the system-generated content and can configure one or more rules at run-time. The rules identify one or more automated actions to perform upon the system-generated content when one or more conditions are satisfied. The automated actions are executed upon the system-generated content when the one or more conditions are satisfied. The exemplary automated actions may comprise transform, retrieve, update and alert. The conditions can specify, for example, when to perform the automated actions. Active tags may optionally be attached to or embedded directly in the system-generated content or in a document containing the system-generated content. Tools are optionally provided to allow a user to manage active tags.
摘要:
Automated contextual information retrieval techniques are provided based on multi-tiered user modeling and a dynamic retrieval strategy. Content relevant to a current message is presented by initially obtaining a multi-tiered user model containing a multi-tiered representation of interactions of a first user with each contact, wherein the multi-tiered representation includes a plurality of topic models each corresponding to interactions between the first user and one contact. The topic models contain a set of topics, each containing topic keywords. Context information is extracted based on content of the current message, a sender and/or a recipient of the current message, and the multi-tiered user model. A retrieval strategy is determined based on the extracted context information. Contextual queries are generated to search the information repositories selected based on the determined retrieval strategy. Content relevant to the current message is presented based on search results from the selected information repositories.
摘要:
An apparatus for automating a prioritization of an incoming message, including a batch learning module that generates a global classifier based on training data that is input to the batch learning module. A feedback learning module that generates a user-specific classifier based on a plurality of feedback instances. A feature extraction module that receives the incoming message and a topic-based user model, infers a topic of the incoming message based on the topic-based user model, and computes a plurality of contextual features of the incoming message. A classification module that dynamically determines a priority classification strategy for assigning a priority level to the incoming message based on the plurality of contextual features of the incoming message and a weighted combination of the global classifier and the user-specific classifier, and classifies the incoming message based on the priority classification strategy.
摘要:
An intelligent content assistance system generates context-sensitive content recommendation during business processes. Information needs of a user in context are dynamically monitored and detected. Content-recommendation templates are retrieved to match the detected information needs, and instantiated using information from user input, context, interaction history, system-learned query and content models, and external sources. Context, interaction history, and system-learned models are dynamically updated for learning and adaptation. The system and methods are applicable to multiple domains and applications.
摘要:
Business outcome-based personalized ranking of information objects is provided. Information objects in outcome-based business processes are ranked by recording information objects generated during a creation of the outcome-based business processes. At least one business process comprises an outcome attribute, and at least one business process comprises in-process information objects. A composite graph is generated of the information objects and business processes. Each node in the graph corresponds to an information object or a business process. Links between two information object nodes have a strength based on a content similarity and a social network distance. The in-process information object node connects to a corresponding business process node, and two business process nodes have a link if they are indicated as related in the business process information system. The information objects are ranked based on the link strengths.
