摘要:
The present invention is a system and method for decoding an image of a bar code. Decoding the barcode includes tokenizing a plurality of pixels in the image of the barcode based upon a plurality of thresholds to form a first set of tokens. Decoding the barcode also includes re-tokenizing the plurality of pixels in the image of the barcode based upon the intensity of the pixels in the plurality of tokens, and the relativity intensity of neighboring tokens, to form a second set of tokens.

The present invention provides antagonizing antibodies, antigen-binding portions thereof, and aptamers that bind to proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9). Also provided are antibodies directed to peptides, in which the antibodies bind to PCSK9. The invention further provides a method of obtaining such antibodies and antibody-encoding nucleic acid. The invention further relates to therapeutic methods for use of these antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof to reduce LDL-cholesterol levels and/or for the treatment and/or prevention of cardiovascular disease, including treatment of hypercholesterolemia.

Frontal face images are classified into four categories such as Asian, Caucasian, African and others. A new representation of face appearance, named BITF (Block Intensity and Texture Feature), is employed as the discrimination feature. An ensemble of three component classifiers, each trained with a different number of BITF features as inputs, is designed to achieve a reliable classification. Further reliability is obtained by taking into consideration other secondary features to boost the classification performance.
摘要:
The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for decoding a bar code. Decoding the bar code includes segmenting the bar code into black tokens, white tokens and gray boundary pixels. Decoding the bar code also includes calculating a boundary position of each token with sub-pixel positional accuracy using intensity values of pixels in a boundary region.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the provision of novel immunogens comprising an antigenic PCSK9 peptide linked to an immunogenic carrier for the prevention, treatment or alleviation of PCSK9-mediated disorders. The invention further relates to methods for production of these medicaments, immunogenic compositions and pharmaceutical compositing thereof and their use in medicine.
摘要:
Disclosed are a series of α-amino-N-substituted amide compounds having a structure of the following formula, the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and the pharmaceutical composition comprising the same. The α-amino-N-substituted amide compounds or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof according to the present invention have anti-tumor and/or anti-cancer activities in vivo and in vitro, can effectively depress the growth of various tumor cells and/or cancer cells, and thus can be used in preparing drugs for treating tumors and/or cancers.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel thiazole-substituted indolin-2-ones as inhibitors of CSCPK and related kinases; to methods of inhibiting cancer stem cells by using a kinase inhibitor; to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds; and to methods of using such compounds in the treatment of a protein kinase related disorder in a mammal; and to processes of making such compounds and intermediates thereof.
摘要:
Described is a technology by which artificial words are generated based on seed words, and then used with a letter-to-sound conversion model. To generate an artificial word, a stressed syllable of a seed word is replaced with a different syllable, such as a candidate (artificial) syllable, when the phonemic structure and/or graphonemic structure of the stressed syllable and the candidate syllable match one another. In one aspect, the artificial words are provided for use with a letter-to-sound conversion model, which may be used to generate artificial phonemes from a source of words, such as in conjunction with other models. If the phonemes provided by the various models for a selected source word are in agreement relative to one another, the selected source word and an associated artificial phoneme may be added to a training set which may then be used to retrain the letter-to-sound conversion model.
摘要:
A system for managing functionality of a user equipment (UE) in a specified area. If the operator providing the network determines a requirement of disabling a UE function in the specified area, the network configures a UE function indication according to the requirement and sends the UE function indication via a system message of the cells covering the specified area by broadcast. A UE receives the UE function indication. The UE adjusts the UE function according to the UE function indication.
摘要:
A method for automatically designing a buffer packing size and a computer accessible storage media to store program thereof are provided. First, a buffer thickness of a buffer material is calculated, and a buffer area for a surface of the object receiving an impact is calculated according to a weight of an object and a static stress of the buffer material. Next, a suitable buffer packing size is automatically calculated according to the buffer thickness and the buffer area.
