Patent EP-1865428-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WEST JAMES LEE
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2007-06-08
Abstract: In order to assign, to each of a plurality of images within different collections in a group of images selected by a search engine, a position within an order in which the images are to be displayed for viewing, an initial handicap value is assigned to each collection of images in the group, each collection comprising at least one image of a common origin. A combined ranking score is then calculated for each image in the group by combining the handicap value of the collection containing the image and a ranking value for the image, and an image is selected for display in the first position in the order having an optimum combined ranking score relative to the combined ranking scores of the other images in the group. After this image selection step, the handicap value assigned to the collection from which the selected image has been taken is adjusted so as to adjust the combined ranking score for each of the remaining images in the collection. After this handicap value adjustment step, an image is selected for display in the next available position in the order having an optimum combined ranking score relative to the combined ranking scores of the other images remaining in the group. This avoids too many similar looking images being presented in a set of search results and has the effect of spacing out images of the same supplier. This is of benefit to both customers and suppliers in that (i) customers can see images from a wide range of sources whilst any single supplier is prevented from dominating the results, and (ii) suppliers of reasonably equal ranking get a fair chance of having their images displayed in the results.

Abstract: The method involves breaking assembly into blocking ad non-blocking criteria assemblies. Nodes e.g. monitoring helicopter nodes, of a tree that do not verify a predetermined blocking criteria assembly, are searched by a structured query language, where the nodes are grouped in an assembly. Nodes verifying the predetermined non-blocking criteria assembly are searched by the query language and by indexing such that each node does not descend from any nodes in the assembly. The resultant of the searches of the nodes is paginated. An independent claim is also included for an application software i.e. document management system, comprising a unit for implementing a hierarchical data search method.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for multiplexing biological events in a biological sample, characterized in that it comprises the suppression of the FRET emitted by the reaction medium containing at least two pairs of fluorescent FRET partner conjugates, each being specific for one of the biological events studied. This suppression of the emitted FRET is carried out by introducing into the medium a FRET signal suppressor agent characterized in that it has a domain for binding to a fluorophore which is a member of a pair of FRET partners and is capable of suppressing the FRET signal emitted when the two partners are in proximity to one another.
