A near real time content streaming system can use a playlist file, in one embodiment, that includes an indicator of the type of content represented by the playlist file. The type can be indicated by a parameter, such as Video on Demand (VOD) or live, or event, that specifies the type of playlist file, and a client device can process the playlist file based upon the type of playlist file indicated by the parameter. For example, the client device, after determining the type of playlist from a playlist file can make efficiency optimizations when processing the playlist file. For example, the client, knowing the playlist file is a VOD playlist, can save the previously used variant playlist when switching to a new variant playlist rather than discarding the previously used variant playlist.

Methods and systems for Predictive Malware Defense (PMD) are described. The systems and methods can utilize advanced machine-learning (ML) techniques to generate malware defenses preemptively. Embodiments of PMD can utilize models, which are trained on features extracted from malware families, to predict possible courses of malware evolution. PMD captures these predicted future evolutions in signatures of as yet unseen malware variants to function as a malware vaccine. These signatures of predicted future malware “evolutions” can be added to the training set of a machine-learning (ML) based malware detection and/or mitigation system so that it can detect these new variants as they arrive.

The invention discloses a spam comment recognition method and system based on the Bayesian algorithm and a terminal. The spam comment recognition method includes the following steps that a certain amount of content determined as normal comments is input into a training set of the Bayesian algorithm to be trained, and the content of the new comments is used as key words and searched for in an original comment bank through a search engine; similarity between comments in the original comment bank and the new comments and the number of the similar comments are detected, and whether the new comments are suspected spam comments or not is determined according to the similarity and the number; the content of the new comments determined as the suspected spam comments is input into the Bayesian algorithm to be judged, and whether the new comments are the normal comments or not is determined. As the search engine and the Bayesian algorithm are combined, without previous spam comment content as reference, the spam comments can be intelligently excavated and recognized in a great number of comments. The phenomenon that the pure Bayesian algorithm needs to depend on the previous spam comment content and cannot intelligently recognize new variants of the spam comment content is avoided.

The present invention discloses a thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction by t-PA. A chimeric truncated form of t-PA is designed and expressed in Pichia pastoris. The new variant t-PA comprises of a finger domain of Desmoteplase, an epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain, a kringle 1 domain, a kringle 2 domain in which the lysine binging site is deleted, and a protease domain where the four amino acids lysine 296, arginine 298, arginine 299, and arginine 304 are substituted by aspartic acid. The chimeric t-PA shows has increased activity of 14 fold in presence of fibrin. The t-PA shows 10-fold increased potency than commercially available full length t-PA (Actylase®) and provides 1.2 fold greater affinity to fibrin. Further a residual activity of only 68% is observed after incubation of Actylase® with PAI-1 and 91% residual activity for t-PA. The t-PA variant is acceptable plasminogen activator with enhanced biochemical properties.

We have identified a new variant of ileal bile acid binding protein (IBABP), designated IBABP-L, which is a biomarker for colorectal cancer. The transcript for IBABP-L arises from an alternative start site and includes three exons that are absent in IBABP. IBABP-L also shares part of a fourth exon with IBABP. The protein encoded by IBABP-L contains a deduced 49 residue N-terminal sequence that is not found in the IBABP protein. The present invention provides, for example, compositions and methods for diagnosing and treating colorectal cancer.
