Abstract: La technique de conservation de préparations liquides biologiques n'a pratiquement pas changé depuis des siècles. On utilise des verres, plus récemment des récipients en Plexiglas ou en plastique, dotés de différents systèmes de fermeture. Ces prélèvements sont exposés à différents dangers. L'objectif de la présente invention est de développer, à partir de l'état actuel de la technique, un nouveau verre à préparations refermable, étanche à long terme et productible industriellement. Le développement des systèmes de fermeture existants n'ayant pas rencontré de succès, un système de fermeture complètement nouveau était à développer, de sorte qu'un nouveau système de fermeture en deux parties a été élaboré. Ce verre à préparations est composé d'un verre au borosilicate, modelé de façon optimale et pourvu d'une fermeture en acier spécial. La masse d'étanchéité, un élastomère nouvellement développé, obture ledit récipient de façon étanche pour des dizaines d'années, la préparation conservée restant néanmoins facile d'accès. Ce récipient est disponible en différentes dimensions de fermeture et hauteurs normalisées et chaque composant est interchangeable. Les faibles exigences d'entretien dudit récipient permettent des grandes économies à long terme.

Abstract: To reduce cost and improve accuracy, the inventors devised systems, methods, and software to aid classification of text, such as headnotes and other documents, to target classes in a target classification system. For example, one system computes composite scores based on: similarity of input text to text assigned to each of the target classes; similarly of non-target classes assigned to the input text and target classes; probability of a target class given a set of one or more non-target classes assigned to the input text; and/or probability of the input text given text assigned to the target to the target classes. The exemplary system then evaluates the composite scores using class-specific decision criteria, such as thresholds, ultimately assigning or recommending assignment of the input text to one or more of the target classes. The exemplary system is particularly suitable for classification systems having thousands of classes.
