Data is collected from the subject by querying the subject on personality and/or health traits, and/or performing one or more social learning and/or (bio)physical tests by or on the subject. The data is used in a set of mathematical models to attribute one or more Scoring Factors to the subject. The Scoring Factor is a measure of the propensity of the subject to raise a response to a pain stimulus or a treatment strategy; and/or a measure of the intensity of the response of the subject. | 2016-02-18 |
20160048660 | REPORT GENERATION BASED ON REAL-TIME AND HISTORICAL DATA - Provided is a system including a data analytics module that is configured to process aggregated patient data to generate a report comprising relevant patient activities identified using a calculated relevance score. The aggregated patient data for each patient of a plurality of patients comprises historical data associated with a respective patient and recent patient activity associated with the respective patient received from electronic devices associated with a number of healthcare organizations. The recent patient activities are non-claim-based activities from a number of healthcare organizations received from the electronic devices associated with the plurality healthcare organizations. The system also includes a messaging module that is configured to transmit the report to an electronic device associated with one or more of the healthcare organizations responsive to the report generation. | 2016-02-18 |
20160048661 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EXPRESSING CHEMICAL COMPOUND WITH LINE NOTATION FOR DISTINGUISHING ISOMERS, AND APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SEARCHING FOR COMPOUND USING THE SAME - Expressing a line notation for distinguishing isomers for searching a compound includes, inter alia, input unit, an atom analysis unit, an atom alignment unit, and a string production unit. An input unit receives an input file regarding three-dimensional coordinate information of each target compound atom. An atom analysis unit analyzes bond relations between the atoms based on the three-dimensional coordinate information. Bond relations corresponding to isomers are defined separately. An atom alignment unit sequentially aligns the atoms based on the preset bond relations priority, producing an array of atoms. A string production unit produces a one-dimensional string corresponding to the target compound using predefined layers to express bond relations between the atoms and the array of atoms. Stereoisomers of compounds having peptide bonds, consecutive double bonds or metals can be more distinctly distinguished, and the double bonds of the compound can be expressed using four kinds of notation. | 2016-02-18 |
20160048662 | Computerized CAPTCHA Systems Using A Direct Connection With User Computing Device - Computerized CAPTCHA systems using a direct connection with user computing devices are provided. An example computerized CAPTCHA system is configured to perform operations. The operations include receiving a request from a user computing device to engage in a verification process. The request is received independent of a resource provider from which the user computing device has requested a resource. The operations include providing a challenge to the user computing device at least in part in response to the request for engagement in the verification process and receiving a response to the challenge from the user computing device. The operations include determining whether the user computing device should be verified based at least in part on the response and providing a verification token to the user computing device when it is determined that the user computing device should be verified. | 2016-02-18 |
20160048663 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATIC GENERATION AND RETRIEVAL OF AN INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM PASSWORD - In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, an information handling system may include a processor and a basic input/output system (BIOS). The BIOS may comprise a program of instructions executable by the processor and configured to cause the processor to initialize one or more information handling resources of the information handling system. The BIOS may further be configured to, during a boot of an information handling system, and in response to a request to set a password associated with the information handling system, generate a random password, securely store the random password in a memory such that the password may be retrieved during a subsequent boot of the information handling system by a user physically present at the information handling system, and set the random password as the password associated with the information handling system. | 2016-02-18 |
