In one aspect, the invention relates to a method to propagate relations between a first rule set and a second rule set wherein the first and second rule sets are invoked by a common workflow model. The method includes tracing paths forward through the workflow model from the first rule set to the second rule set. Enumerating relations that extend forward from the first rule set to the second rule set is another step in the method. Additionally, using multi-valued logic, calculating the effects on the relations of control flow through the workflow model from the first rule set to the second rule set, tracing paths backward through the workflow model from the second rule set to the first rule set, enumerating relations that extend backward from the second rule set to the first rule set, and using multi-valued logic, calculating the effects on the relations of control flow backwards through the workflow model from the second rule set to the first rule set are also steps in the method.

An icon added to a message of a sender provides a tool for recipients of the message to determine commonalities with the sender. The recipient activates the icon to initiate retrieval of social networking information from social networking network locations of the recipient to the recipient's computer. The recipient's social networking information is then forwarded to a commonality engine that compares the recipient's social networking information with social networking information of the sender to provide the recipient with commonalities between the recipient and the sender.

An improved data exploration system and method for analyzing and exploring complex data sets involving multiple data dimensions and multi-variable data presentations. The system can generate visual representations of complex data sets in a map format, in which symbols representing the complex data sets are plotted based on data underlying the various symbols. The positions of a first set of symbols can be plotted in the map format relative to a first axis based on the data underlying each symbol, and index numbers corresponding to a second set of symbols can be plotted in the map format along a second axis orthogonal to the first axis, thereby facilitating visual comparison and comprehension of selected characteristics of the data.

An improved data exploration system and method that can be used to analyze and to explore complex data sets involving multiple data dimensions and multi-variable data presentations. The data exploration system generates visual representations of complex data sets in map, table, and tree view formats. In each of these view formats, both the appearance and the arrangement of the symbols representing the data sets are based on the data itself to facilitate the comprehension of patterns and information relationships within the data sets. Further, the data can be viewed at different levels of density to perform detailed analysis of the data, and to detect the presence of overall trends within the data. Moreover, the data exploration system performs a suite of calculation operations to cast the data in different forms, and to facilitate the acquisition, integration, and analysis of the data.

A method for single photon counting transmission computed tomography (CT) is described. The method is based on an apparatus consisting of a radiation source and detectors on an opposite side of the subject from the source. The radiation source is for example an X-ray tube. The detectors are independently connected to parallel, fast, low-noise processing electronics capable of recording and counting individual X-ray photons at very high rate. In one embodiment of the invention, said detector is made of a scintillator coupled to a photodetector. The photodetector can be an avalanche photodiode (APD). The method comprises the steps of: directing the low energy radiation source toward the subject; detecting the radiation transmitted through the subject towards the detectors and recording the position and energy of each individual X-ray photon; rotating the radiation source and detectors around the subject; recording data for each position of the radiation source and detectors around the subject to form projections; and creating a CT image from the recorded projection data. The proposed method allows enhancing CT image contrast and reducing radiation dose to the patient by counting individual X-ray photons.

A method for analysing medical treatment data based on deep learning via an intelligent analyser thereof, effectively alleviates work stress for doctors in a hospital or medical researchers and performs scientific analysis on a large amount of medical treatment data or medical data and obtain an analysis result matched therewith. The core content of the method is the establishment of a model in a computer using a deep convolution neuron algorithm in deep learning. The model assists the doctors to make correct judgments and effective decisions for the large amount of medical treatment data using mass medical treatment data selection and optimization model parameters by “training” the model to automatically learn a pathology analysis process of the doctors or the medical researchers and then helping them in processing the large amount of medical treatment data or medical data.

An X-ray convergence element and an X-ray irradiation device including the X-ray convergence element are provided. The X-ray convergence element can extend a working distance from an exit-side opening end thereof to a specimen, and can perform analysis of the specimen with rough surface, a fluorescent X-ray analysis, and a X-ray diffraction analysis, regardless of a size of the specimen. An X-ray blocking member 23 is provided with three supporting members 233 for supporting the X-ray blocking member 23, which extend from an annular member 232 having approximately the same diameter as a diameter of an entrance-side opening end (outer diameter of a capillary 20) toward the center of the X-ray blocking member 23 to fix the annular member 232 to the capillary 20. The annular member 232, the supporting members 233, and the X-ray blocking member 23 are integrally formed of a metal that shields X-rays, such as tantalum, tungsten, or molybdenum. A dimension of the X-ray blocking member 23 in the axial direction (thickness) is set to be sufficient for blocking X-rays.
