Abstract: The invention provides a micro device, such as a brain dust, arranged for implantation into biological tissue. A power management unit receives a wireless signal, e.g. an ultrasonic signal, from an external source and generates an electric power output accordingly. The micro device has a plurality of electrical power consuming components powered by the electric power output, especially comprising one or more controllable light sources, e.g. micro LEDs which can be controlled to generate light in a time-varying manner, such as for optogenetics or for optical release of a drug. To increase power efficiency, an electric regulator circuit regulates electric current applied to the controllable light source to provide a predetermined total electric load of the power management unit. This provides an optimal efficiency of transferring power to the plurality of electrical power consuming components with a minimal requirement of volume of the circuit which provides impedance matching for optimal efficiency.

Title: Encoding method and device
Inventor: DAI SHENGCHEN
IPC: H03M13/13
Filed: 2021-03-01
Abstract: An encoding method and apparatus are provided. The method includes: obtaining a to-be-encoded bit sequence (S401); performing polar encoding on the to-be-encoded bit sequence to obtain a first bit sequence (S402); performing convolutional encoding on the first bit sequence to obtain a second bit sequence (S403); and outputting the second bit sequence (S404).

Abstract: A bioorthogonal catalytic patch integrates TiO 2  nanosheets populated with metallic nanoparticles into polyvinyl alcohol-based microneedles arranged in an array. This bioorthogonal patch-based device is robust, removable and can effectively mediate the conversion of caged substrates into their active states once placed at the site of application. The capacity of the patch in executing bioorthogonal catalysis in high-level living systems was demonstrated by localized dealkylation of a caged doxorubicin prodrug at the melanoma tumor site and restoration of its pharmacological properties for cancer therapy. This  in situ  applied patch facilitated to enhance the local treatment efficacy and eliminate off-targeted prodrug activation or dose-dependent side effect towards healthy organs or tissues located away from the application site.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided in which an artificial intelligence inference module identifies targeted information in large-scale unlabeled data, autonomously learns hierarchical representations from the data, and continually self-improves from self-labeled data points using a teacher model trained to detect known targets from combined inputs of a small hand labeled curated dataset prepared by a domain expert together with self-generated context features derived from the unlabeled dataset by unsupervised and self-supervised processes. The trained teacher model self-generates new weakly-supervised training samples that are self-refined and self-corrected, without human supervision, and then used as inputs to a noisy student model trained in a semi-supervised learning process. With each iteration, the noisy student model continually self-optimizes its learned parameters against a set of configurable validation criteria by replacing the learned parameter of the prior iteration teacher model with optimized learned parameters periodically used to update the artificial intelligence inference module.

Abstract: A method for detecting glutaraldehyde in a water sample in which Au-BSA nanoclusters have been introduced is provided. In the method, the water sample is mixed with the Au-BSA nanoclusters to form a mixture. The mixture is incubated for 2 to 10 minutes, and the glutaraldehyde present in the mixture reacts with the Au-BSA nanoclusters and causes fluorescence quenching of the Au-BSA nanoclusters. Then a fluorescence intensity of the quenched Au-BSA nanoclusters in the mixture is measured at an emission wavelength of 675 nm. A presence and concentration of glutaraldehyde in the water sample is then determined by comparing the measured fluorescence intensity of the quenched Au-BSA nanoclusters at the emission wavelength of 675 nm with fluorescence intensity values of calibration samples comprising Au-BSA nanoclusters and known glutaraldehyde concentrations.
