Abstract:
Techniques for reducing a number of computations in a data storage process are provided. One or more computational elements are identified in the data storage process. An ordered structure of one or more nodes is generated using the one or more computational elements. Each of the one or more nodes represents one or more computational elements. Further, a weight is assigned to each of the one or more nodes. An ordered structure of one or more reusable nodes is generated by deleting one or more nodes in accordance with the assigned weights. The ordered structure of one or more reusable nodes is utilized to reduce the number of computations in the data storage process. The data storage process converts data from a first format into a second format, and stores the data in the second format on a computer readable medium for data analysis purposes.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a control technology for brushless DC motor, in which firstly it is to build or import a motor running parameters' database, then detect the signals always running and the signals closely relevant to the rotor's rotating state such as the voltage and the current, and process these signals and figure out the signals about the rotor's position. Wherein these detected signals should be filtered before being used, and the best filter is the low-pass filter to cut out the high frequency components, and the cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter are determined by the motor running voltage U and PWM signal width when the motor is running at no load, finally determine if the motor is working properly by means of the motor running parameters stored in the database in advance, that is to determine if the detected value is identical with the one predicted from the database. Depending on the results from the detecting and comparison above, the control signal is generated to adjust the motor running state. With the technical method in this invention, the position sensor is not needed. This reduces the motor's external wiring amounts and the wiring complexity. Also the motor's seal is improved. Meanwhile, it is possible to measure the rotor's position accurately in any state according to this invention technology. Thus the motor running state can be controlled properly.

Abstract:
A system and method for non-invasively generating a report of cardiac electrical activities of a subject includes determining, using cardiac electrical activation information, equivalent current densities (ECDs). The ECDs are assembled into time-course ECD information and a spectrum of the time-course ECD information is analyzed to determine peaks for spectral characteristics of atrial fibrillation (AF). The spectral characteristics of AF are correlated with potential electrical sources of the AF and a report is generated indicating the potential electrical sources of the AF spatially registered with the medical imaging data.
Abstract:
A method for implementing multicast data exchange over a partitioned network having an encrypted domain with HAIPE devices at the edges consists of proxies running at an ingress edge and at egress edges of the encrypted domain. The proxies at the ingress edge device modify the multicast data packet to replace the destination address with the address of a proxy running on an egress edge device, such that the encrypted domain routes the packet directly to the proxy at the egress edge device without processing it as a multicast data packet. At the egress edge devices, the proxies restore the original address and send the multicast packets to the appropriate destinations.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide a system, method and computer program products for information retrieval from multiple documents by proximity searching for search queries. A method includes generating an index for the multiple documents, wherein the index includes words in snippets in the documents. An input search query is processed against the index by searching query terms over the snippets to introduce term proximity information implicitly in the information retrieval. Results of multiple sentence level search operations are combined as output.
Abstract:
A method for computing a quantitative metric indicative of pain experienced by a subject using an electrophysiological signal detection system is provided. Electrophysiological data are acquired from a subject with the electrophysiological signal detection system. Modulations in the acquired electrophysiological data that are associated with pain experienced by the subject during the acquisition of the electrophysiological data are identified. A quantitative metric indicative of the pain experienced by the subject is computed by processing the identified modulations in the acquired electrophysiological data.
