Abstract:
Methods and compositions are provided for transferring DNA sequence information from a first vector to a second vector. In the subject methods, a first vector comprising a region of DNA having a sequence of interest is contacted with a set of three pairs of oligonucleotide primers under conditions sufficient to produce three different PCR products, where each product corresponds to a different reading frame. The oligonucleotide primers comprise a first region of sequence identity with the first vector and a second region permissive of site specific recombination with the second vector. The resultant PCR products are combined with the second vector under conditions sufficient for site specific recombination to occur. Also provided are kits for use in performing the subject methods.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, apparatuses, etc. for providing a visual expression of the performance of one or more blood glucose sensors. In one particular example, a relative comparison of a rate of change sensor blood glucose and a rate of change in reference blood glucose may be expressed in a polar plot or graph. The polar plot or graph may then be generated onto a visual medium.
Abstract:
A system and method reduce artifacts in images in a manner that efficiently incorporates user feedback, minimizes user effort, and adaptively processes images. According to one exemplary embodiment, the method includes executing an algorithm to remove artifacts in a first region of a first frame, regions outside of the first region being unaffected; identifying a second region of a second frame following the first frame, the second region of the second frame corresponding to the first region of the first frame; displaying the second frame with an indication of the second region; receiving a first user input defining a third region inside the second region; and executing the algorithm to remove artifacts in the second region excluding the third region.
Abstract:
The invention provides a robust method to control interactive media using gestures. A method to retrieve metadata information from a multimedia outlet device, wherein the method follows the steps: (1) extracting image hot spot areas in a current captured image using face detection, (2) detecting a human gesture directive in at least one image hot spot area using gesture recognition, (3) determining if the gesture directive matches a pre-assigned command to a rich interaction module, (4) sending a signal to a rich interaction module corresponding to the pre-assigned command detected, (5) extracting a media image hot spot area from electrical signals sent from the multimedia, (6) matching any detected human gestures in at least one image hot spot area using gesture recognition with a specific pixel on a device screen, and (7) retrieving information from metadata assigned to an area of pixels on the screen.
Abstract:
A method and system are provided for adaptive video key frame selection. The system includes a range determination device for selecting portions of a video sequence to be analyzed for video key frame selection at a specific time based on at least a video key frame computational cost estimate. Each of the portions encompasses a respective range of frames in the video sequence. The system further includes a localized optimization device for analyzing the portions of the video sequence to select video key frames therein utilizing a hybrid video key frame selection process that is based on heuristics and global optimization. At least one constraint relating to at least a computational capacity of the system is explicitly modeled in the hybrid video key frame selection process.
Abstract:
A method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming a high dielectric constant material over a semiconductor substrate, forming a conductive material over the high dielectric constant material, and performing an anneal in a non-oxidizing ambient using ultraviolet radiation to remove defects in the high dielectric constant material. Examples of a non-oxidizing ambient include for example nitrogen, deuterium, a deuterated forming gas (N2/D2), helium, argon or a combination of any two or more of these. Additional anneals using ultraviolet radiation may be performed. These additional anneals may occur in non-oxidizing or oxidizing ambients.
