Utility
System and Method for Quantifying Prediction Uncertainty
10 Feb 22
A method for risk analysis, comprising: (i) receiving a plurality of features about a subject; (ii) analyzing the features using risk prediction models to generate risk scores; (iii) determining, using a distillation model, mean and variance among the risk scores; (iv) generating a single risk score and a risk score confidence interval; (v) determining, based on a feature impact score for each feature, an effect of one or more missing or defective features on the generated risk score confidence interval, wherein the system identifies a missing or defective feature for reporting if that feature would narrow the generated risk score confidence interval if it were not missing or not defective; (vi) generating a report comprising the single risk score and the risk score confidence interval, and further comprising at least one or more of the identified missing or defective features; and (vii) providing the report.

Utility
an Epilating Device for Epilating Hair
3 Feb 22
The invention relates to an epilating device (10) for epilating hairs growing from skin, comprising a housing; an epilating system having a plurality of hair-clamping elements arranged adjacent to each other rotatably on a curved supporting shaft which extends in a plane of curvature; a drive system arranged (58) to rotate the hair-clamping elements; a skin-contacting member (16) arranged to contact the skin during use and to be pivotable relative to the housing about a first pivot axis; a compression member arranged adjacent to the epilating system to exert a compression force on the epilating system directed along a compression line, said compression member being pivotable relative to the housing about a second pivot axis to adjust a position of the compression line relative to the housing; and a linkage mechanism linking the skin-contacting member and the compression member such that a pivotal motion of the skin-contacting member about the first pivot axis over a first pivot angle results in a pivotal motion of the compression member about the second pivot axis over a second pivot angle equal to the first pivot angle; wherein the compression member is arranged in a fixed position relative to the curved supporting shaft; and the linkage mechanism links the skin-contacting member (16) and the supporting shaft such that the pivotal motion of the skin-contacting member (16) about the first pivot axis over the first pivot angle results in a pivotal motion of the supporting shaft about the second pivot axis over the second pivot angle.
