Title: Parameterized model of 2d articulated human shape
Inventor: BLACK MICHAEL J
IPC: G06T17/00
Filed: 2011-06-08
Granted: 2022-06-21
Abstract: A novel "contour person" (CP) model of the human body is proposed that has the expressive power of a detailed 3D model and the computational benefits of a simple 2D part-based model. The CP model is learned from a 3D model of the human body that captures natural shape and pose variations; the projected contours of this model, along with their segmentation into parts forms the training set. The CP model factors deformations of the body into three components: shape variation, viewpoint change and pose variation. The CP model can be "dressed" with a low-dimensional clothing model, referred to as "dressed contour person" (DCP) model. The clothing is represented as a deformation from the underlying CP representation. This deformation is learned from training examples using principal component analysis to produce so-called eigen-clothing. The coefficients of the eigen-clothing can be used to recognize different categories of clothing on dressed people. The parameters of the estimated 2D body can be used to discriminatively predict 3D body shape using a learned mapping approach. The prediction framework can be used to estimate/predict the 3D shape of a person from a cluttered video sequence and/or from several snapshots taken with a digital camera or a cell phone.

Abstract: Paint once dropped, dripped, or spilt onto a drop cloth still presents an issue to painters in that it may be further dripped or spilt onto the surfaces and / or objects being protected when moved or removed. Likewise a drop cloth on the floor does not stop the wet paint getting picked up and re-deposited onto the floor in areas not protected. These instances arise as the paint or other materials being painted take time to dry. Further, where the paint is thick then unlike the surface being painted where the paint "dries" completely the paint drop or spill has a "skin" formed leaving liquid paint beneath. Embodiments of the invention accelerate the paint "drying" process and allow thicker paint drops for example to dehydrate, coagulate, or form solid materials thereby reducing the instances of subsequent paint transfer from the drop cloth to other surfaces and / or objects.

Abstract: An implantable device with in vivo functionality, where the functionality of the device is negatively affected by ROS typically associated with inflammation reaction as well as chronic foreign body response as a result of tissue injury, is at least partially surrounded by a protective material, structure, and/or a coating that prevents damage to the device from any inflammation reactions. The protective material, structure, and/or coating is a biocompatible metal, preferably silver, platinum, palladium, gold, manganese, or alloys or oxides thereof that decomposes reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide, and prevents ROS from oxidizing molecules on the surface of or within the device. The protective material, structure, and/or coating thereby prevents ROS from degrading the in vivo functionality of the implantable device.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'urée et une installation de production d'urée dans lesquels l'émission d'ammoniac dans l'étape finale de formation de granules d'urée est réduite. Dans le procédé, la concentration d'une solution d'urée est effectuée dans au moins trois étapes de concentration consécutives et le temps de séjour de la masse fondue d'urée quittant un dernier concentrateur à la tour de grelonage est rendu minimal. Ceci peut être obtenu par mise en place du dernier concentrateur de façon adjacente à une entrée de masse fondue d'urée de la tour de grelonage, par exemple au-dessus de la tour de grelonage. De cette manière, l'émission d'ammoniac dans la tour de grelonage peut être réduite autant que 50 % par comparaison avec les installations classiques de production d'urée. L'invention concerne également un procédé de réduction de l'émission d'ammoniac dans la tour de grelonage d'une installation existante de production d'urée.

Title: Self mode - locking semiconductor disk laser
Inventor: HAMILTON CRAIG JAMES
IPC: H01S3/081
Filed: 2013-03-27
Granted: 2019-09-03
Abstract: The present invention describes a self mode locking laser and a method for self mode locking a laser. The laser (1) comprises a resonator terminated by first (3) and second (4) mirrors and folded by a third mirror (5). The third mirror comprises a single distributed Bragg reflector (17) upon which is mounted a multilayer semiconductor gain medium (18) and which includes at least one quantum well layer and an optical Kerr lensing layer (22). Self mode locking may be achieved by configuring the laser resonator such that the lensing effect of the Kerr lensing layer acts to reduce an astigmatism deliberately introduced to the cavity mode. The self mode locking of the laser may be further enhanced by selecting the length of the resonator such that a round trip time of a cavity mode is matched with an upper- state lifetime of one or more semiconductor carriers located within the gain medium.
