摘要:
A system and associated method of converting audio data from a television signal into textual data for display as a closed caption on an display device is provided. The audio data is decoded and audio speech signals are filtered from the audio data. The audio speech signals are parsed into phonemes in accordance by a speech recognition module. The parsed phonemes are grouped into words and sentences responsive to a database of words corresponding to the grouped phonemes. The words are converted into text data which is formatted for presentation on the display device as closed captioned textual data.
摘要:
A method, system, and apparatus for configuring a signal processing device for use with a display device having a display size is disclosed. The signal processing device is configured by determining the display size of the display device and configuring the signal processing device for use with the display device based on the determined display size.
摘要:
There are disclosed alpha-helix mimetics and methods relating to the same for imparting or stabilizing alpha-helicity to a peptide or protein. In one aspect, the alpha-helix mimetics contain six- or seven-membered rings covalently attached at the end or within the length of the peptide or protein. The alpha-helix mimetics render the resulting peptide or protein more stable with regard to thermal stability, as well as making the peptide or protein more resistant to proteolytic degredation. In addition, the alpha-helix mimetics may be used in standard peptide synthesis protocols.
摘要:
The invention provides α-helix mimetic structures and a chemical library relating thereto. The compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, and methods of the invention using the compounds, relate to the treatment of diseases including fibrosis, such as pulmonary fibrosis.
摘要:
The invention relates to human pluripotent cells. More specifically, the invention provides a chemically defined xeno-free culture system that allows for long term expansion of human pluripotent cells. This culture system allows for human pluripotent cell lines to be maintained in the pluripotent state for an extended time while maintaining a normal karyotype and the ability to differentiate into all three germ layers.
摘要:
Conformationally constrained compounds of structure: which mimic the secondary structure of β-strand regions of biologically active peptides and proteins are disclosed. Such β-strand mimetic structures have utility over a wide range of fields, including use as diagnostic and therapeutic agents that inhibit protease, kinase and the like. Libraries containing the β-strand mimetic structures of this invention are also disclosed as well as methods for screening the same to identify biologically active members.
摘要:
Conformationally constrained compounds that mimic the secondary structure of reverse-turn regions of biologically active peptides and proteins are disclosed. Such reverse-turn mimetic structures have utility over a wide range of fields, including use as diagnostic and therapeutic agents. Libraries containing the reverse-turn mimetic structures of this invention are also disclosed as well as methods for screening the same to identify biologically active members. The invention also relates to the use of such compounds for inhibiting or treating disorders modulated by Wnt-signaling pathway, such as cancer, especially colorectal cancer, restenosis associated with angioplasty, polycystic kidney disease, aberrant angiogenesis disease, rheumatoid arthritis disease, tuberous sclerosis complex, Alzheimer's disease, excess hair growth or loss, or ulcerative colitis.
