Abstract

A machine learning pipeline includes an input block that receives a dataset from a data source. The dataset includes columns that respectively correspond to different features in the dataset. A feature selection block of the pipeline reduces a size of the dataset by removing a subset of non-correlated features from the dataset, creating a modified dataset having only columns corresponding to correlated features. A model selection block of the pipeline tests performance of a plurality of models against the modified dataset using validation data values. The model selection block selects, from the plurality of models, a candidate model having a measured performance that meets or exceeds measured performances of other models in the plurality of models. An output block of the pipeline provides an output to a computational device that identifies the candidate model as being a preferred model for processing the dataset.

Abstract

An interaction checking method, device, and system determines health interactions, in real time, as images are collected from an environment and provides augmented informational data presentations of the same. The interactions are based on health information, historical information, and stored interaction data. In particular, the images are received from a camera viewing the environment and an identity is determined of the objects in the environment. Based on the identity determined, information about the objects is retrieved from a memory device, and an interaction warning is determined for a specific combination of the objects if the objects were to be used together. A display device augments visual data of the environment with the information about the objects in a presentation to a user that includes the interaction warning and information about the objects.

This clearance allows users to position, or maneuver, the walker close to adjacent objects. The handrail portions of the walker are pitched at a downward angle running in a direction from the rear to the front of the walker. This pitch moves the operating position of the user close to the front of walker providing a safe and stable operating position.

Abstract

A pre-processing and fulfillment system and method are described. In some implementations, the method may include receiving an order containing a retail component and a pharmacy component, processing the order for the pharmacy component and the retail component, and generating a tracking token identifying the order and authorizing a party to receive a component of the order. The method may include transmitting fulfillment instructions to a fulfillment system based on processed information for the order, and transmitting the tracking token to a computing device of the authorized party. Some implementations may also include receiving a signal indicating receipt of the tracking token and an authorized transfer of the component, and updating a status of the order based on the received signal.
