Title: Categorization of dna samples
Inventor: WASSERSTROM ADAM
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2010-12-08
Abstract: The present application describes methods for accurate and cost-effective categorization of DNA samples into different types of in vitro generated DNA or different types of natural DNA such as from different tissues and/or physiological/pathological states. The invention achieves categorization by comparing "signal ratios"  that are correlated to ratios of methylation levels at specific genomic loci, but does not rely on calculation of actual methylation levels at any genomic locus. Therefore the disclosed inventive method eliminates the requirement for external DNA species and controls, thereby simplifying and increasing the accuracy of the assay. The described inventive technology also enables performing the categorization of DNA together with DNA  profiling in the same reaction, thereby allowing for concomitant categorization and determination of identity of the samples.

Title: System for combining signals of pressure sensors and particle motion sensors in marine seismic streamers
Inventor: VAAGE SVEIN TORLEIF
IPC: G01V1/16
Filed: 2004-12-23
Abstract: A method for calculating an up-going wavefield from particle motion sensor signals (G signal, 52) and pressure sensor signals (H signal, 51) are disclosed. The particle motion sensor signals (G signal, 52) and the pressure sensor signals (H signal, 51) are transformed from a time domain (t) to a frequency domain (f). An up-going wavefield (U) is calculated as a combination of the particle motion sensor signal (G signal, 52) multiplied by a first scaling function (Eqs. 1, 19, 20, 23) and the pressure sensor signal (H signal, 51) multiplied by a second scaling function (Eqs. 16, 19, 20, 23). The first scaling function increases and the second scaling function decreases as frequencies increase over the frequency domain.
