Title: Human microphysiological cell system for liver disease conversion with prov 1-18585 and prov 2-19154
Inventor: CATHERINE KARALIS
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 2019-02-20
Abstract: The present invention is related to the field of liver disease. Solid substrates comprising microfluidic channels (e.g., microchips) are configured to support growing and differentiating hepatocytes and are contemplated to provide a suitable environment for the development of fully functional liver tissue. These solid substrates can be used to induce various toxicity conditions in the liver tissue subsequent to the exposure to various chemicals.

Title: Energy efficient protocol for wireless sensor network
Inventor: KHALED MOUFFOK
IPC: H04W52/02
Filed: 2021-09-29
Abstract: An energy efficient protocol for a communication network made up of a network of wireless communication nodes is disclosed. To reduce the amount of energy consumed by the nodes, the nodes operate in a reduced power duty cycle acquisition mode of operation in which the nodes cycle between a low power standby state and a higher power detection state. The nodes are forced to transition out of the duty cycle acquisition mode in response to detection of a triggering event when in the higher power detection state. The operating parameters of the reduced power duty cycle acquisition mode can be modified based on current operating conditions on the network. The network may be an acoustic communications network deployed in a downhole environment used to transmit telemetry information.

Title: Rapid feed split lead nut system
Inventor: JIMI WADE
IPC: F16H25/24
Filed: 2021-08-18
Abstract: A technique facilitates operation of a split lead nut system which may be used in combination with a lead screw. The split lead nut system may be constructed with a split lead nut having a plurality of lead nut sections, e.g. two lead nut sections. The lead nut sections may be selectively released, via a clasp mechanism, to enable separation of the lead nut sections. When the lead nut sections are separated, the split lead nut disengages from the lead screw such that the split lead nut and the corresponding lead screw may be rapidly shifted with respect to each other. This allows a tool coupled with the lead nut to be rapidly repositioned. Once at a desired position, the lead nut sections may be closed and reconnected with the corresponding lead screw to enable the desired, controlled movements of the tool via rotation of the lead screw.

Title: Method and apparatus for processing a video signal
Inventor: BAE KEUN LEE
IPC: H04N19/119
Filed: 2019-06-07
Abstract: Video encoding and corresponding decoding, comprises deriving merge candidates for a current block from temporally or spatially adjacent neighbouring blocks (S1010 & S1020) and constructing a merge candidate list (S1030) by adding the candidates thereto. First and second candidates are selected from the list, and prediction samples of the current block are obtained from first motion information derived from the first candidate and second motion information derived from the second candidate. Two pieces of index information are encoded into a bitstream to specify (S1040) the first and second candidates, the two pieces including first index information specifying the first candidate and second index information specifying the merge candidate. When an index of the second candidate is less than an index of the first, a value of the second index information is set identical to the index of the second candidate. When the index of the second candidate is greater than the index of the first, the value of the second index information is set to a value resulting from subtracting 1 from the index of the second candidate (i.e. adding 1 to the second index in the corresponding decoding step).
