    摘要: Disclosed are embodiments for electronic commerce user interfaces. In some embodiments, a device is used to create an account on an electronic commerce system or create a listing for an item for sale on the ecommerce system. A first identifier of the device is stored by the ecommerce system. When a listing is generated by the account, an image representing an item for sale is included as part of the listing. The disclosed embodiments compare a second device identifier of a device used to capture the image with the first device identifier. If the two identifiers identify the same device, this provides an indication of confidence that the seller is in possession of the item represented by the image. This indication of confidence is then displayed when the listing is displayed to prospective buyers.

    摘要: Systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for facilitating patient health care through automatic discovery, establishment, and statistical validation of diagnostic-signals in repositories of EMR information, identifying phenotypic diagnostic signals regarding markers or combinations or sequences of patient attributes. In an embodiment, a method includes identifying, from a dataset of health care records, a first group of patients that have one or more markers; extracting one or more diagnostic statuses that pertain to the group of patients tested with diagnostics such as whole genome sequencing (WGS) or whole exome sequencing (WES); determining one or more statistically significant differences involving frequent itemsets comprised of two or more marker combinations that occur concomitantly in members of the group; determining statistical disproportionality signals among the items and itemsets with regard to the likelihood that WGS or WES will yield a specific, actionable diagnosis; and determining membership of an individual in a diagnostic-yield subset of the group according to the individual's manifesting one or more of the identified signals.

    摘要: Systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for predicting probability of a clinical invoice being paid by a specified date. A clinical invoice is a request for payment. The clinical invoice can take the form of an insurance claim, bill to a person (e.g., self-insured, co-pay), or submission to a government entity (e.g., Medicare, Medicaid). Healthcare facilities do not know how long they will have to wait between submitting an invoice and receiving compensation from government, insurance, or other payers. The methods described herein can be used to estimate the probability of payment occurring by a specified date. This information can be used to triage outstanding claims for investigation and to improve outstanding cash forecasts. The technology described herein uses survival curves to estimate when an invoice will be paid.

    摘要: The technology described herein builds an optimal refresh schedule by minimizing a cost function constrained by an available refresh bandwidth. The cost function receives an importance score for a content item and a change rate for the content item as input in order to optimize the schedule. The cost function is considered optimized when a refresh schedule is found that minimizes the cost while using the available bandwidth and no more. The technology can build an optimized schedule to refresh content with incomplete change data, content with complete change data, or a mixture of content with and without complete change data. It can also re-learn content item change rates from its own schedule execution history and re-compute the refresh schedule, ensuring that this schedule takes into account the latest trends in content item updates.

    Email security in a multi-tenant email service

    摘要: The technology described herein helps improve email security within a multi-tenant email service. In particular, the technology described herein helps make it more difficult for a first tenant of the email service to impersonate a second tenant of the email service by validating the sending domain before the email leaves the multi-tenant email service. In particular, the technology runs a sending-side source validation on an email. If the source validation fails, the email is still sent, but using a source IP address that will cause the email to fail a receiving-side email authentication tests, such as the sender policy framework (SPF) email authentication test. In contrast, if the source validation passes, the email is sent using a source IP address that will cause the email to pass the receiving-side email authentication tests.

    摘要: Aspects of the technology described herein improve the clarity of information provided in automatically generated notifications, such as reminders, tasks, alerts or other messages or communications provided to a user. The clarity may be improved through augmentations that provide additional information or specificity to the user. For example, instead of providing a notification reminding the user, “remember to send the slides before the meeting,” the user may be provided with a notification reminding the user “remember to send the updated sales presentation before the executive committee meeting on Tuesday. The augmentation may take several forms including substituting one word in the notification with another more specific word, adding additional content such as a word or phrase to the notification without altering the existing content, and/or by rephrasing the content for grammatical correctness and/or clarity.

    摘要: Systems and processes for thermoforming an article and for preparing an article for thermoforming are disclosed. The system for thermoforming can include one or more heating stations and a cooling station. The system for thermoforming can further include an article movement mechanism that can couple to an article and rotate the article inside a heating chamber, inside a cooling chamber, or both. The system for preparing an article for thermoforming can include a vessel that comprises a port, and a negative pressure generation system coupled to the port. The system for preparing an article for thermoforming can further include a compression material that forms an interior portion for receiving an article. The negative pressure generation system can cause the compression material to expand to allow for insertion of the article into the interior portion of the compression material.

    摘要: Aspects herein provide for a support garment having a vibration damping structure that is positioned between the breast contacting surfaces of the support garment. The vibration damping structure has a shape and/or material characteristics that enable it to substantially fill the space defined by a medial aspect of the wearer's breasts and the wearer's sternum. This positioning and placement facilitate the damping structure's ability to absorb and dissipate impact forces generated at least through the medial-to-lateral movement of the wearer's breasts during, for example, athletic activities.
