A method for implementing a virtual ontology over a relational database, comprising: defining a virtual ontology from multiple candidates for a relational database by: declaring a hierarchy of virtual entities; for each virtual entity, declaring a mapping associating the virtual entity with at least a subset of a physical table in the database; storing the virtual entity in association with the mapping in a metadata database; and defining multiple schemas, each implemented as a different relational view of the virtual ontology and capturing at least one ontology capability, wherein querying the metadata database with a first relational query targeting one of the schemas enables writing a second relational query, wherein executing the second relational query at the relational database extracts knowledge that is opaque to the relational schema and expresses the ontology capability captured by the targeted ontology schema, thereby extracting the knowledge within a relational framework.

A system for generating cold plasma is presented, suitable for use in in-vivo treatment of biological tissue. The system comprising: a control unit connectable to an elongated member at a first proximal end of the elongated member. The elongated member comprises a plasma generating unit at a second distal end thereof and gas and electricity transmission channels extending from said first proximal end towards said plasma generating unit. The control unit comprises a gas supply unit configured to provide predetermined flow rate of selected gas composition through said gas transmission channel and a power supply unit configured to generate selected sequence of high-frequency electrical pulses, typically in mega Hertz range, directed through said electricity transmission channel, thereby providing power and gas of said selected composition to the plasma generating unit for generating cold plasma.

Systems and methods of predicting glottal insufficiency by at least one hardware processor including receiving a voice recording comprising a phonation by a subject, analysis of the voice recording to calculate a fundamental frequency contour curve of the phonation, and measurement of at least one of (i) a time period from a start of the phonation until the contour curve reaches a settled level, (ii) a slope of the contour curve during the time period, and (iii) an area under the contour curve during that time period. In certain embodiments, the processor subsequently, determines a glottal closure insufficiency in the subject based on these measurements.
