20090100193 | Synchronization of state information to reduce APS switchover time - In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a controller configured for operation in an active automatic protection switching (APS) mode and an inactive APS mode and a processor operable when the controller is in the active mode to transmit a synchronization message to a corresponding APS node. The synchronization message includes state information for a connection with a peer node. The processor is further operable when the controller is in inactive mode to receive the synchronization message from the corresponding APS node, switch the controller from inactive mode to active mode upon receiving notification of a failure from the corresponding APS node, and establish a connection with the peer node without negotiating the connection with the peer node. Methods for synchronization of state information to reduce APS switchover time are also disclosed. | 04-16-2009 |

20080260851 | Polymeric Nanoparticles and Nanogels for Extraction and Release of Compounds - The invention relates to polymeric nanoparticles and nanogels, which can contain, deliver, and/or release one or more active agents, such as biologically active molecules or fragrance molecules, and methods of preparing the polymeric nanoparticles and nanogels. The nanoparticles are crosslinked utilizing radiation (g-radiation) as the catalyst for free radical polymerization (see FIG. | 10-23-2008 |
20080308495 | Removal of contaminants from water using sugar based surfactant enhanced ultrafiltration - Embodiments of the present invention relate to the removal of contaminants from water using sugar based surfactant enhanced ultrafiltration. | 12-18-2008 |
20110259361 | DETERGENT COMPOSITIONS UTILIZING HYDROPHOBICALLY MODIFIED POLYMER - Embodiments of the invention relate to a detergent composition including a poly(maleic acid/vinyl octyl ether) (PMAOVE) hydrophobically modified polymer; and a heavy duty liquid detergent. In addition, embodiments relate to a method of cleaning a substrate, including contacting a substrate with a poly(maleic acid/vinyl octyl ether) (PMAOVE) hydrophobically modified polymer solution. | 10-27-2011 |
20130273124 | NETWORK MATERIAL DEVICES, METHODS, AND SYSTEMS - Fibrillar bacterial proteins can be mixed with oil in or on water. The interaction of the proteins at the oil-water interface can result in oil dispersion in water in the form of droplets surrounded by an aggregated protein film The film may be formed by multiple layers of the fibrillar proteins with water between adjacent protein layers. The proteins may be derived from bacterial cells, such as | 10-17-2013 |

20120078918 | Information Relation Generation - For generating a word space, manual thresholding of word scores is used. Rather than requiring the user to select the threshold arbitrarily or review each word, the user is iteratively requested to indicate the relevance of a given word. Words with greater or lesser scores are labeled in the same way depending upon the response. For determining the relationship between named entities, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is performed on text associated with the name entities rather than on an entire document. LDA for relationship mining may include context information and/or supervised learning. | 03-29-2012 |
20130066870 | System for Generating a Medical Knowledge Base - A system generates medical knowledge base information by searching at least one repository of medical information to identify sentences including a received medical term. A data processor searches the identified sentences to identify sentences including a medical term different to the received term in response to a predetermined repository of medical terms and excludes sentences without a term different to the received term, to provide remaining multiple term sentences. The data processor groups different terms of individual sentences of the multiple term sentences to provide grouped terms, determines whether a medically valid relationship occurs between different terms of an individual group of terms of the grouped terms by using predetermined sentence structure and syntax rules and outputs data representing grouped terms having a medically valid relationship. | 03-14-2013 |
20130066903 | System for Linking Medical Terms for a Medical Knowledge Base - A system generates medical knowledge base information by using predetermined data source specific message syntax information in identifying first and second information received from first and second data sources respectively. The first and second information indicates at least one type of medical relationship between the received first and second medical terms. The system determines likelihood of existence of the at least one type of medical relationship indicated by a combination of the first and second information, in response to predetermined information indicating a number of occurrences of the at least one type of relationship in data of at least one of the first and second data source. The system outputs first and second medical terms and the at least one type of medical relationship in response to the determined likelihood of existence. | 03-14-2013 |

20150243181 | Systems and Methods for Automated Scoring of Textual Responses to Picture-Based Items - Systems and methods are provided for measuring a user's English language proficiency. A constructed response generated by a user is received, the constructed response being based on a picture. The constructed response is processed to determine a first numerical measure indicative of a presence of one or more grammar errors in the constructed response. The constructed response is processed to determine a second numerical measure indicative of a degree to which the constructed response describes a subject matter of the picture. The constructed response is processed to determine a third numerical measure indicative of a degree of awkward word usage in the constructed response. A model is applied to the first, second, and third numerical measures to determine a score for the constructed response indicative of the user's English language proficiency. The model includes first, second, and third variables with associated first, second, and third weighting factors, respectively. | 08-27-2015 |
