20130166591 | Systems and Methods for Searching for Items of Fashion and other Items of Creation - Systems and methods according to the invention make feature-based and visual search possible. They allow users to provide us a visual representation that we can apply against available items of creation and return items that are like the visual representation in terms of features and other parameters that user can specify. More generally, the invention relates to searching items using visual representations. In particular it provides visual features of an item of creation and methods for recognizing images in terms of those features, and converting the deduced knowledge in a form that is searchable against a database of items of creation. Thus, for example, one aspect of this invention provides for creation of the framework in which an item of creation can be represented visually. This framework can be of many types: a canvas or a touch-sensitive computer screen and so on. | 06-27-2013 |

Thus, for example, one aspect of this invention provides for creation of the framework in which an item of creation can be represented visually. This framework can be of many types. A canvas, if we are to draw an image akin to what an artist draws. Or a touch-sensitive computer screen if we are the give the user the ability to pick and choose the image that wants to be inferred and so on. | 12-04-2014 |

20100173340 | USE OF HEMATOPOIETIC GROWTH FACTOR INDUCIBLE NEUROKININ-1 (HGFIN) AS A NOVEL BIOMARKER - The invention provides, in certain embodiments, a method of detecting an indicator of renal injury or renal disease. The method entails assaying a urine sample for hematopoietic growth factor inducible neurokinin-1 (HGFIN), wherein the presence of HGFIN at an elevated level indicates the presence and/or degree of renal injury or renal disease, and/or the rate of loss of renal function. In other embodiments, the invention provides a method of detecting an indicator of systemic inflammation. This method entails assaying a biological sample for HGFIN, wherein the presence of HGFIN at an elevated level indicates the presence and/or degree of systemic inflammation. Also provided, are methods of determining progression of these conditions, as well as methods of determining subjects' response to treatment. | 07-08-2010 |
