摘要:
Two-dimensional (2D) video is converted into multi-view video. The 2D video is segmented to generate a temporally consistent segmented 2D video which is made up of a sequence of segmented frames. The multi-view video is generated by employing user-guided operations to generate depth assignments for the segments associated with user-assigned regions of the segmented frames, where a user-assigned region is formed from a group of contiguous segments selected by the user.

摘要:
A method and apparatus is provided for operating a mobile device having stored thereon a plurality of applications (“apps”) that are each configured to capture an image. The method includes receiving first user input data requesting invocation of a given one of the applications. The given application is launched by the user. After launching the given application a user interface is presented which serves as an entry point through which ail of the image capture applications stored on the mobile device are made available to the user.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for notifying a user of a remote control regarding the mode of a remote control. An example method includes detecting a code from the remote control, comparing the detected code to a list of recognized codes, and informing the user of the mode the remote control is operating based on the detected code and/or that the current mode of the remote control is not programmed.

A system for mechanically deploying intraluminal implants is disclosed. The system is used with an implant that is delivered and/or deployed via a pull wire and includes a handle having a funnel and receiving channel for receiving the pull wire, a slider having a thumb grip and a wedge, and a shuttle having a grabber for grasping the pull wire. The thumb grip is pulled proximally to retract the wedge to cause the grabber to grasp the wire and retract the shuttle but not the wire. An extension spring linked between the slider and the shuttle abruptly pulls the shuttle to retract the pull wire after the slider is fully retracted.
摘要:
A novel gene defining a novel enzyme in the UDP-D-galactose: b-N-acetyl-glucosamine β-1,4-galactosyltransferase family, termed β4Gal-T2, with unique enzymatic properties is disclosed. The enzymatic activity of β4Gal-T2 is shown to be distinct from that of previously identified enzymes of this gene family. The invention discloses isolated DNA molecules and DNA constructs encoding β4Gal-T2 and derivatives thereof by way of amino acid deletion, substitution or insertion exhibiting β4Gal-T2 activity, as well as cloning and expression vectors including such DNA, cells transfected with the vectors, and recombinant methods for providing β4Gal-T2. The enzyme β4Gal-T2 and β4Gal-T2-active derivatives thereof are disclosed, in particular soluble derivatives comprising the catalytically active domain of β4Gal-T2. Further, the invention discloses methods of obtaining β-1,4-galactosyl glycosylated saccharides, glycopeptides or glycoproteins by use of an enzymically active β4Gal-T2 protein or fusion protein thereof or by using cells stably transfected with a vector including DNA encoding an enzymatically active β4Gal-T2 protein as an expression system for recombinant production of such glycopeptides or glycoproteins. Also a method for the identification of DNA sequence variations in the β4Gal-T2 gene by isolating DNA from a patient, amplifying β4Gal-T2-coding exons by PCR, and detecting the presence of DNA sequence variation, are disclosed.

A novel gene defining a novel enzyme UDP-galactose: β-D-galactose-R 4-α-D-galactosyltransferase, termed α4Gal-T1, with unique enzymatic properties is disclosed. The invention provides isolated DNA molecules and DNA constructs encoding α4Gal-T1 and derivatives thereof by way of amino acid deletion, substitution or insertion exhibiting α4Gal-T1 activity, as well as cloning and expression vectors including such DNA, host cells comprising DNA encoding α4Gal-T1, and recombinant methods for providing α4Gal-T1. The enzyme α4Gal-T1 and α4Gal-active derivatives thereof are disclosed. Further, the invention discloses methods of obtaining α1, 4galactosyl glycosylated glycosphingolipids by use of an enzymatically active α4Gal-T1 protein thereof or by using cells stably transfected with a vector including DNA encoding an enzymatically active α4Gal-T1 protein as an expression system for recombinant production of such glycosphingolipids. Also a method for the identification of DNA sequence variations in the α4Gal-T1-coding exon by PCR, and detecting the presence of DNA sequence variation, are disclosed.
