Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing an image divided into blocks of pixels comprising the steps of: detecting (10), for each block, a largest sub-block whose pixels have an equal luminance value; identifying (12), for each block, if the detected largest sub-block is or is not a natural texture; calculating (14), for each block, a weighted luminance difference between the detected largest sub-block and neighboring pixels; determining (16), for each block, a block blockiness level on the basis of the number of pixels within the detected largest sub-block, of said identification step and of said weighted luminance difference; and processing (20) the image on the basis of the block blockiness levels.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a control apparatus for an internal combustion engine that can prevent reliably an external EGR gas amount from being uneven among cylinders during performance of external EGR and prevent deposits from being deposited in an intake manifold. 
     The control apparatus for an internal combustion engine of the present invention includes fresh air backflow control means. The fresh air backflow control means performs fresh air backflow control that causes part of fresh air drawn into a cylinder to flow back into an inside of the intake manifold by operating, when external EGR is to be started, a variable intake valve actuating device such that intake valve closing timing is retarded relative to that before the external EGR is started. The backflow of the fresh air sufficiently mixes external EGR gas inside the intake manifold with the fresh air to establish a uniform mixing ratio, so that an amount of external EGR gas flowing into cylinders can be equalized. In the fresh air backflow control, fresh air instead of internal EGR gas (burned gas) flows back into the intake manifold. Thus, deposits can never be deposited.

Abstract: Conformément à un mode de réalisation, l'invention porte sur un mécanisme permettant d'aider la station de base (eNodeB) de la seconde cellule, par exemple un eNodeB macrocellulaire ou un eNodeB femtocellulaire, à déterminer la configuration d'ABS. De manière spécifique, l'eNodeB de la première cellule envoie une signalisation de requête à l'eNodeB de la seconde cellule, afin de s'informer de l'exigence pour les ABS. L'eNodeB de la seconde cellule reçoit la signalisation de requête de l'eNodeB de la première cellule, et détermine alors le motif d'ABS et envoie le motif d'ABS sous la forme d'un tableau de bits par une signalisation à l'eNodeB de la première cellule. Étant donné que l'exigence pour les ABS est déterminée par l'eNodeB de la première cellule sur la base du nombre d'UE et/ou de la charge de trafic des UE qui sont proches du bord de la zone de couverture de la picocellule, cela peut aider l'eNodeB de la seconde cellule à déterminer la configuration d'ABS, c'est-à-dire le motif d'ABS, de façon à réaliser une utilisation efficace de ressources.

Abstract: Provided is a method of treating cancer in a subject by inhibiting expression of PAX2. An example of a cancer treated by the present method is prostate cancer. Similarly, provided is a method of treating cancer in a subject by increasing expression of DEFB1 in the subject. In the method wherein the expression of DEFB1 is increased, it can be increased by blocking the binding of PAX2 to the DEFB1 promoter. Blocking the binding of PAX2 to the DEFB1 promoter can be by administration of an oligonucleotide containing the PAX2 DNA binding site of DEFB1. This oligonucleotide can be complementary to the sequence of PAX2 that binds to the DEFB1 promoter. Alternatively, the oligonucleotide can interact with the PAX2 in a way that inhibits binding to DEFB1.
