摘要:
The present invention includes compositions and methods for identifying T-cell epitopes independent of the subject's HLS type by simultaneously analyzing the culture for multiple parameters of immune reactivity to identify at least one epitope wherein the epitopes that elicit immune reactivity of interest in the subset are identified as targeting agents for the subset.

The present invention provides methods and systems for patient-specific seizure onset detection. In one embodiment, at least one EEG waveform of the patient is recorded, and at least one epoch (sample) of the waveform is extracted. The waveform sample is decomposed into one or more subband signals via a wavelet decomposition of the waveform sample, and one or more feature vectors are computed based on the subband signals. A seizure onset can then be identified based on classification of the feature vectors to a seizure or a non-seizure class by comparing the feature vectors with a decision measure previously computed for that patient. The decision measure can be derived based on reference seizure and non-seizure EEG waveforms of the patient. In another aspect, similar methodology is employed for automatic detection of alpha waves. In other aspects, the invention provides diagnostic and imaging systems that incorporate the above seizure-onset and alpha-wave detection methodology.
摘要:
A leak prevention device and method of use to prevent leakage and sinkage of ships that have collided with immobile objects comprising at least two inflatable cylindrical bodies that have cables attached to each of its ends. The cylinders are lowered over one side of a ship or delivered by rescue vessels and then manipulated by the cables or guide wires, one past the stern of the ship and the other past the bow of the ship so that the lines are on the opposite side of the ship, so that guide-wires pass under the hull of the ship and surround the object of the collision fully on one side. The process is repeated on the opposite side of the ship so that the two cylindrical structures crisscross. The cables are then tensioned and inflated with compressed air forming a tight seal between the hull and the point of collision.

A system is disclosed according to the present invention that manages the process of providing a client access to a secured service. In the exemplary embodiment, the secured service is a computer system that allows the client to trade financial instruments. Management of this process includes managing execution of tasks that can be automatically executed and delegating tasks that require manual execution; communicating with entities outside of the process management system; and handling “demands,” or unexpected problems that arise in the middle of the client connectivity process.

摘要:
A valve stack for a work machine is disclosed. The valve stack has first and second valve bodies, each with first and second mounting surfaces and first and second valve members. The valve stack further has a third valve body with a mounting surface configured to engage the second mounting surfaces of the first and second valve bodies, and at least one valve member disposed within the third valve body. The at least one valve member is movable between a first position at which movement of a first operator control device corresponds to movement of the first valve member and movement of a second operator control device corresponds to movement of the second valve member, and a second position at which movement of the first operator control device corresponds to movement of the second valve member and movement of the second operator control device corresponds to movement of the first valve member.

Pressure-sensitive adhesive articles with a backing that provides secure but reversible adhesion to the pressure-sensitive face of the article when the article is wound upon itself to form a roll. Such “non-stick” backings include a non-woven fabric carrying a binder, such as polychloroprene, butadiene-styrene copolymer or butadiene-styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer, that provides a soft and conformable layer that readily releases from an overlying adhesive layer of the article when the rolled article is unwound.

Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for correcting scan position errors in an imaging system. In one embodiment of the present invention, the method includes determining an image beam velocity error as a function of a position within a scan line of an image, and using the image beam velocity error to determine a plurality of pixel clock frequencies to be respectively applied to a plurality of positions within the scan line.

Integrated packages incorporating multilayer ceramic circuit boards mounted on a metal support substrate can be used for temperature control by the metal support substrate. Various electronic components, as well as additional temperature control devices, can be connected to the circuit boards and to the metal support substrate to control or regulate the temperature of operation of the components. The integrated package can be hermetically sealed with a lid.
