摘要:
The invention provides antibody heavy chain constant regions with a hinge region modified to reduce binding to Fcγ receptors. The modification occurs within positions 233-236 by replacement of natural residues by glycine(s) and/or deletion(s). Such modifications can reduce binding of an antibody bearing such a constant region to Fcγ receptors to background levels. The constant regions can be incorporated into any format of antibody or Fc fusion protein. Such antibodies or fusion proteins can be used in methods of treatment, particularly those in which the mechanisms of action of the antibody or Fc fusion protein is not primarily or at all dependent on effector functions, as is the case when an antibody inhibits a receptor-ligand interaction or agonizes a receptor.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media with executable instructions, and/or logic are provided for incremental image clustering. An example method for incremental image clustering can include identifying, via a computing device, a number of candidate nodes from among evaluated leaf image cluster (LIC) nodes on an image cluster tree (ICT) based on a similarity between a feature of a new image and an average feature of each of the evaluated LIC nodes. The evaluated nodes include at least one node along each path from a root node to either a leaf node or a node having a similarity exceeding a first threshold. A most-similar node can be determined, via the computing device, from among the number of candidate nodes. The new image can be inserted to a node associated with the determined most-similar node, via the computing device.

The disclosure relates to a system and a method for generating clothing feature data representative of at least one clothing feature of a piece of clothing being worn by the person in a set of images, and training a discriminative clothing classifier using the clothing feature data to provide a personal clothing model that corresponds to the piece of clothing. The personal clothing model can be used to identify additional images in which the person appears.
摘要:
The disclosure is related to a system and method for learning robust clothing clustering based on a cluster ensemble technique applied to the clothing features of images to improve clustering of images. Different types of clothing features that are complementary to each other are computed to provide extensive description of the clothing in the images. Multiple partitions are computed based on the clothing features to generate a cluster ensemble set. A consensus function is applied to the multiple partitions to generate a final clothing consensus clustering that encompasses the information contained in the multiple partitions. A system and method are disclosed for clustering images based on the clothing of one or more persons in the images.

摘要:
A transparent solar concentrator is provided for converting solar energy into electrical energy. The solar concentrator includes a first light transmissive substrate, a plurality of solar cells for receiving solar energy and converting the solar energy into electrical energy, the plurality of solar cells positioned relative to the first substrate, and a plurality of light redirecting elements arranged in the first light transmissive substrate. Each of the plurality of light redirecting elements is configured to direct light incident on a first side of the first light transmissive substrate to a respective one of the plurality of solar cells on an opposite side of the first light transmissive substrate.

An illumination system includes a light source and a reflector. The reflector includes a first optical interface adjacent the light source which redirects light emitted from the light source and incident on the first optical interface via Fresnel reflection. In addition, the reflector includes a second optical interface adjacent the first optical interface on a side opposite the light source, which reflects light passing through the first optical interface via total internal reflection back towards the first optical interface. Also, a light collection system includes such a reflector.

Non-volatile storage elements having a reversible resistivity-switching element and techniques for fabricating the same are disclosed herein. The reversible resistivity-switching element may be formed by depositing an oxygen diffusion resistant material (e.g., heavily doped Si, W, WN) over the top electrode. A trap passivation material (e.g., fluorine, nitrogen, hydrogen, deuterium) may be incorporated into one or more of the bottom electrode, a metal oxide region, or the top electrode of the reversible resistivity-switching element. One embodiment includes a reversible resistivity-switching element having a bi-layer capping layer between the metal oxide and the top electrode. Fabricating the device may include depositing (un-reacted) titanium and depositing titanium oxide in situ without air brake. One embodiment includes incorporating titanium into the metal oxide of the reversible resistivity-switching element. The titanium might be implanted into the metal oxide while depositing the metal oxide, or after deposition of the metal oxide. Sub-plantation may be used to create a titanium region between two metal oxide regions.

A method for selecting a video thumbnail includes generating a visual theme model for a sample set of images that are representative of textual information corresponding to a video file. Each of a set of candidate key frames is distinguished according to similarities shared between the candidate key frames and the visual theme model. A display is caused of a selected one of the distinguished candidate key frames as a video thumbnail for the video file.
