摘要:
An efficient system and method for reliably identifying guidelines, ruled lines, and the like, in images of text, and distinguishing those portions of such lines which touch or intersect character strokes in the image. The system provides for removal of guideline segments between character strokes without deleting character strokes. The system operates effectively on both machine printed and hand formed text. An image of text has most characters separated for more effective subsequent OCR processing, despite the presence of guidelines connecting the characters.

A type IV collagen polynucleotide molecule, COL4A6, encoding .alpha.6(IV) polypeptide molecule, is identified on the X chromosome and expressed particularly in basement membranes. Genetic alteration of COL4A6 is associated with Alport's syndrome, a disease of basement membranes. Assays which detect an alteration of collagen .alpha.6(IV), or the polynucleotide molecules encoding it, are useful in determining pathologies associated with Alport's syndrome.

In some aspects of the present application, a method of forming one or more layers of at least a portion of a drug delivery device (DDD) is described. The method can include providing a substrate; providing one or more DDD components that are dissolved or dispersed in one or more pharmaceutically compatible phase change inks; ejecting, by one or more nozzles, a first portion of the one or more pharmaceutically compatible phase change inks to form a first layer on the substrate; and ejecting, by the one or more nozzles, a second portion of the pharmaceutically compatible phase change inks to form a second layer over the first layer.
摘要:
An indicator, system and method of indicating electric drive usability in a hybrid electric vehicle. A tachometer is used that includes a display having an all-electric drive portion and a hybrid drive portion. The all-electric drive portion and the hybrid drive portion share a first boundary which indicates a minimum electric drive usability and a beginning of hybrid drive operation of the vehicle. The indicated level of electric drive usability is derived from at least one of a percent battery discharge, a percent maximum torque provided by the electric drive, and a percent electric drive to hybrid drive operating cost for the hybrid electric vehicle.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for controlling stray radiation within a CVD chamber. A heater array disposed beneath a wafer carrier for radiatively heating of the wafer carrier includes a peripheral or outermost heating element or elements. Scattered radiation originating from a designated segment of the peripheral heating element(s) can be reduced locally by one of several mechanisms, including reducing the emission (e.g., operating temperature) of the designated segment, or capturing or deflecting a portion of the radiation originating from the designated segment. In one embodiment, an electrical connector on a resistance heating element provides the reduced emission from the designated segment. It has been found that radiation thermometers fixed proximate an axis that extends from the center of the wafer carrier and across the designated segment is subject to less stray radiation, thus providing a more reliable temperature reading in the optical wavelengths.

摘要:
A system and method of automatic suggested application identification includes accessing a profile of a device, wherein the profile represents information specific to the device. From said profile, a determined pattern of use determined by the device is accessed, wherein the determined pattern is unique to the device. The profile including the determined pattern and a geo-specific data of the device and configuration information of the device and applications resident on the device is compared to similar profiles and similar determined patterns of other devices. A suggested application is identified based on said comparing.
摘要:
There is provided a motif-specific, context-independent antibody that specifically binds a recurring, modified motif consisting of (i) at least one sumoylated lysine residue, and (ii) one or more degenerate amino acids bound by a peptide bond to said sumoylated lysine residue, said antibody specifically binding said motif in a plurality of non-homologous peptides or proteins within an organism in which it recurs. Also provided is a motif-specific, context-independent antibody that specifically binds a recurring, modified motif consisting of (i) a C-terminal aspartic acid residue, and (ii) one or more degenerate amino acids bound by a peptide bond to said C-terminal aspartic acid residue, said antibody specifically binding said motif in a plurality of non-homologous peptides or proteins within an organism in which it recurs.
