Abstract:
The present invention relates to delivery systems to enhance the bioavailability of flavonoids to improve human health. Flavonoids of interest include but are not limited to curcumin, resveratrol, ellagic acid, naringenin, and quercetin. Flavonoids are important in part because they are known to have beneficial effects on human health, including cardioprotective, antioxidant, and anticancer effects. Utility has been limited by low bioavailability, both in the sense of requiring high doses and in that it has been difficult to carry out proper dose-response studies in the absence of methods to control the actual dose administered. In addition to pharmaceutical applications, there are potential nutraceutical uses, for example in supplements that might be sold in health food stores and pharmacies.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are representative embodiments of generating representative motion information that can be used during processing of a video frame. In one exemplary embodiment disclosed herein, a reference frame comprising a group of blocks is processed, and motion information for the group of blocks is compressed at least by buffering representative motion-vector information and representative reference-frame index information for the group of blocks. The representative reference-frame index information comprises reference-frame index information of a representative block of the group of blocks, and the representative reference-frame index information represents reference-frame index information for the group of blocks during processing of a current frame.
Abstract:
A simple and robust CTL is used for time tracking of multipath components of a spread spectrum signal transmitted over a wireless multipath fading channel. A digital code-tracking loop includes the implementations of despreading early and late data samples by use of a pseudonoise sequence, an error signal output generated by the despreading, and adjustment for a plurality of on-time, early and late samples, a data rate of a control signal provided as a fractional proportion of a data rate of error signals.
Abstract:
The disclosure discloses a method for communication based on pseudo-contact information, which including: when a call is received, acquiring contact information of a calling party, and encrypting the contact information by using a preset encryption algorithm to acquire pseudo-contact information; when the pseudo-contact information does not match locally stored pseudo-contact information, displaying real contact information of the calling party, wherein the locally stored pseudo-contact information represents the pseudo-contact information generated by encrypting the contact information to be stored according to the preset encryption algorithm and locally stored; and when the pseudo-contact information matches the locally stored pseudo-contact information, displaying a substituted contact information generated by substituting a plurality of bits of the real contact information of the calling party with an identifier. The disclosure further discloses another method for communication based on pseudo-contact information and an apparatus for communication based on pseudo-contact information. The disclosure can solve the problems of higher operation complexity and lower safety performance of the method for protecting contact information stored on a terminal mentioned in the related art.
