Abstract:
Head smut is one of the most devastating diseases in maize, causing severe yield loss worldwide. The present invention describes the fine-mapping of a major QTL conferring resistance to head smut. Markers useful for breeding, and methods for conferring head smut resistance are described. Nucleic acid sequence from the genetic locus conferring head smut resistance is disclosed. Genes encoding proteins conferring head smut resistance are disclosed.
Abstract:
A method and system for identifying documents relevant to a query that specifies a part of speech is provided. A retrieval system receives from a user an input query that includes a word and a part of speech. Upon receiving an input query that includes a word and a part of speech, the retrieval system identifies documents with a sentence that includes that word collocated with a word that is used as that part of speech. The retrieval system displays to the user an indication of the identified documents.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method for indicating a modulation mode in HSDPA, comprising the following steps: a NodeB receiving capability information reported by a terminal, if determining that the terminal supports 64QAM modulation mode, determining a transmission block size, a modulation mode and code channel resource to be indicated based on an capability constraint condition and the capability information, and if the determined modulation mode is the same as a basic modulation mode satisfying requirement of the transmission block size, setting modulation mode information of a HS-SCCH as 0, otherwise setting the modulation mode information of the HS-SCCH as 1, and then sending the HS-SCCH to the terminal. Application of the present invention is compatible with a UE device which supports or does not support 64QAM high order modulation, without changing the current frame structure of the HS-SCCH, thereby achieving functional support of the 64QAM modulation mode.
Abstract:
The claimed subject matter provides systems and/or techniques that effectuate combining domain-tuned search systems. The system can include mechanisms that obtain queries, written descriptions, or illustrative web-pages regarding a particular area of interest, and generate a definition related to the area of interest. The definition contains a list of paths with associated weights employed to identify an pre-established first domain-tuned search system related to the area of interest. The first domain-tuned search system thereafter can be combined with a second domain-tuned search system related to another area of interest and presented to a user for utilization in re-ranking generic search results to be specific to the first and second domains of interest if combined, or to only the first domain if weights for the second domain are logically subtracted.
Abstract:
An architecture and techniques to enable a mobile device to efficiently classify raw sensor data into useful high level inferred data is discussed. Classification efficiency is achieved by tuning the mobile device's raw sensor data classification pipeline to attain a balance of accuracy, latency and energy suitable for mobile devices. The tuning of the classification pipeline is accomplished via a multi-pipeline tuning approach that uses Statistical Machine Learning Tools (SMLTs) and a classification cost modeler.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for realizing a video phone are provided. Wherein the method includes the following steps: the equipment on the local side establishes a physical path between the equipment on the opposite side and itself through a wireless data card (S102); the equipment on the local side performs interaction of control signals with the equipment on the opposite side through the established physical path and establishes a video phone path (S104); the equipment on the local side transmits the video signals and/or audio signals collected by itself to the equipment on the opposite side through the established video phone path and receives the video signals and/or audio signals from the equipment on the opposite side (S106). By the present disclosure, the user experience is improved, and the cost of the user is saved.
Abstract:
A high power optical isolator is able to transfer excess heat to a heat sink, reduce the effect of scattered and reflected light, and be coupled to standard thin optical fibers.
Abstract:
A monoclonal antibody that binds to an extracellular domain of human receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase σ (human PTPRS), or a fragment including an antigen-binding region thereof.
Abstract:
This invention relates to long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), libraries of those ncRNAs that bind chromatin modifiers, such as Polycomb Repressive Complex 2, inhibitory nucleic acids and methods and compositions for targeting lncRNAs.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a micro-machined switchable optical mirror device with a fast response speed. The mirror device includes a substrate defining a gap space, and a mirror assembly disposed on the substrate and deflectable in the gap space, the mirror assembly including a free end cantilever and a reflector on the cantilever, wherein the cantilever is anchored on the substrate adjacent a side of the gap space through an elastic member. In one aspect, the mirror device further includes a stop spring at an end of the cantilever opposing the elastic member.
