Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system for focused web crawling comprising a crawler, a distiller, a queuing unit and a classifying module arranged to undergo a method for focused web crawling that inputs a seed address into a subsequently formed address queue, iteratively extracts a primary address from the address queue, iteratively invigilates the primary address for presence in an address store, and follows a series of steps to conduct relevancy check of the addresses via naive bayes protocol, simultaneously calculates primary conditional probability of a set of predefined webpage(s) using the protocol, sequentially calculates plurality of secondary conditional probabilities pertaining to the webpage(s) of the iteratively extracted primary addresses, further classifies the webpage(s) as relevant/irrelevant webpage(s) and finally transfers addresses of the relevant webpage(s) and the relevant set of addresses into the address queue, else into the address store.
Abstract:
A vacuum pump for automobiles used for brake application is provided wherein a method of reducing power consumption and running torque in a vacuum pump of a motor vehicle is explained. The present invention also provides a vacuum pump for automobiles comprising an actuator, a new vane locking assembly, a new vane and rotor assembly, a new non return valve assembly, the controlled oil supply means and a reed stopper assembly that reduces power loss and unnecessary frictional forces and to maintain a controlled oil supply to the vacuum pump.
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to improved methods for the extraction and isolation of cannabinoids from hemp. More particularly, the present invention relates to a series of extraction and isolation processes employed to selectively enhance recovery of non-psychoactive cannabinoids and the like, from cannabis materials and extracts, while removing undesirable naturally occurring components that may be present including colorants, carbohydrates, sugars and waxes, and the like, as well as contaminants that may be present in source materials including bactericides, fungicides, insecticides, plant growth regulators, environmental pollutants, and processing aids, and the like. The present invention further relates to an isolate obtained using a series of extraction and isolation processes that has extremely high cannabinoid content present in a stable, flowable liquid form that is essentially free of detectable levels of psychoactive cannabinol components.
Abstract:
A visual tracking and annotation system for surgical intervention includes an image acquisition and display system arranged to obtain image streams of a surgical region of interest and of a surgical instrument proximate the surgical region of interest and to display acquired images to a user; a tracking system configured to track the surgical instrument relative to the surgical region of interest; a data storage system in communication with the image acquisition and display system and the tracking system; and a data processing system in communication with the data storage system, the image acquisition and display system and the tracking system. The data processing system is configured to annotate images displayed to the user in response to an input signal from the user.
Abstract:
Techniques to control power and processing among a plurality of asymmetric cores. In one embodiment, one or more asymmetric cores are power managed to migrate processes or threads among a plurality of cores according to the performance and power needs of the system.
Abstract:
In a network control system, a method for managing traffic flow in a distributed controller environment includes stamping a packet to be forwarded between data forwarding units with flow control information based on an action set associated with a flow entry pushed by a logical controller. The packet is stamped by one or more of the data forwarding units. The flow control information is used to forward the packet between data forwarding units, thereby defining a datapath packet flow.
Abstract:
The invention comprises a predictive security system apparatus and method of use thereof for predicting a threat level of illicit activity of an actor, the actor using authorized access to company information in generation of a threat. The predictive security system optionally: collects data; processes the data with a predictive engine to predict a threat; checks predicted threats against policies via a policy engine; determines a threat level using a threat engine; checks the threat level against a threshold or metric; and/or reports the threat leading to one or more actions. Optionally, the predictive security system is adaptive and/or iterative based on new information.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the murine monoclonal antibody (mAb) 11B9 and to mAb 62 each of which target major neutralizing epitopes of influenza A H7 hemagglutinin and active fragments thereof. The present invention also relates to methods and compositions for the prophylaxis and treatment of H7 influenza using murine mAb 11B9, mAb 62 or fragments thereof. The present invention further relates to methods and kits for determining, identifying and/or quantifying (a) influenza A hemagglutinin in a sample or vaccine or (b) an antibody against influenza A hemagglutinin.
Abstract:
Herein are provided derivatized hyperbranched polyglycerols (“dHPGs”). The dHPG comprises a core comprising a hyperbranched polyglycerol derivatized with C1C20 alkyl chains and a shell comprising at least one hydrophilic substituent bound to hydroxyl groups of the core, wherein the hyperbranched polyglycerol comprises from about 1 to about 200 moles of the at least one hydrophilic substituent. The dHPGs are for use as agents for the delivery of a drug or other biologically active moiety to the urinary tract, the digestive tract, the airways, the vaginal cavity and cervix and the peritoneal cavity to treat indications such as cancer, which may be useful in the treatment of or the manufacture of a medicament, in the preparation, of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of cancer, as a pre-treatment or co-treatment to improve drug uptake in a tissue. Furthermore, there are provided methods of making dHPGs.
Abstract:
An encapsulated particle including a core particle, a base layer, and an outer layer is provided. The base layer is disposed about the core particle and comprises polycarbodiimide. The outer layer is disposed about the base layer and comprises wax. A method of forming the encapsulated particle including the steps of reacting an isocyanate in the presence of a catalyst to form the polycarbodiimide, encapsulating the core particle with the polycarbodiimide to form the base layer, and encapsulating the base layer with the wax to form the outer layer is also provided.
