Title: Method of sample adaptive offset processing for video coding
Inventor: HSIANG SHIH-TA
IPC: H04N19/50
Filed: 2014-07-15
Abstract: A method of modified SAO (sample-adaptive offset) processing for a reconstructed picture in a video coding system to improve the performance is disclosed. In one example, a SAO-sign threshold is introduced to determine the sign of the difference between a current reconstructed pixel and a neighboring reconstructed pixel. A range of difference values greater than the negative SAO-sign threshold and smaller than the positive SAO-sign threshold is assigned to have a sign value of 0. In another example, the SAO-offset value is derived by multiplying the SAO-offset sign with a result from applying left shift by the SAO-bit-shift value to the absolute SAO-offset value. In yet another example, the absolute SAO-offset value is coded by truncated Rice (TR) codes and a maximum TR value is indicated by a syntax element.

Inventor: BOHRER DAVID
IPC: B01D46/44
Filed: 2015-11-04
Abstract: An air filtration system may monitor and control air quality within a building with the use of multiple housings strategically placed throughout the building. Each housing includes a motor driving a fan and an air filter. Selective activation of a cleaning mode removes particulates from the filter within each housing, cleaning only the air filter within the housing that requires cleaning. Air filter cleaning time and power consumed for cleaning is thereby reduced. Also, filtration is improved by locating a filter and a motor at key locations.

Abstract: The invention shall allow a more accurate electrochemical test strip measurement by identifying erroneous output signals during a glucose measurement, thereby ensuring a much more accurate glucose test system and method. A glucose measurement system comprises a biosensor (62) having electrodes and a meter (10,100). The meter includes a microcontroller (38) configured to drive a signal to the electrodes, measure an output signal during the electrochemical reaction over a series of time intervals, determine an output differential (Delta I) as a difference of the output signal for consecutive time intervals and, if this output differential (Delta I) is greater than a threshold, increment an index value (x) by this output differential (Delta I). When the final index value (x) is greater than or equal to a predetermined index value, then an error is annunciated; otherwise the glucose value is annunciated.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for the prevention of HSV infection in an HSV seronegative individual. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is associated in many infected individuals with recurrences that manifest themselves as cold sores and/or genital herpes, both of which are often painful and embarrassing. HSV is also of significant public health consequence in that infection with HSV increases the risk of a person acquiring human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) by 2-3 fold, with an 8-fold increased risk if the person is exposed to HIV soon after HSV is acquired. Therefore, in order to address the HIV epidemic, it is also necessary to address the HSV epidemic.

Title: Dispositifs de verrouillage
Inventor: DIEHL ANDREW KARL
IPC: H02K7/10

Abstract: L'invention concerne des dispositifs de verrouillage dans lesquels la vitesse de déplacement relative entre des éléments est en partie régulée ou réduite par l'intermédiaire de la formation de courants de Foucault et le mouvement relatif est en partie régulé ou arrêté par l'intermédiaire d'un agencement de verrouillage. Divers modes de réalisation sont décrits, l'un d'eux consistant à utiliser un élément conducteur, au moins un champ magnétique et un élément de verrouillage qui, avant le verrouillage, se déplace indépendamment du ou des éléments conducteurs. Il existe une relation cinématique entre l'élément conducteur et au moins un champ magnétique qui permet à l'élément conducteur à se déplacer à une vitesse différente par rapport au champ magnétique lors de l'application d'une force d'excitation, ce qui permet d'induire une force de traînée de courants de Foucault par mouvement relatif de l'élément conducteur dans le champ magnétique. La force de traînée de courants de Foucault résultante provoque un mouvement de l'élément conducteur ce qui amène l'élément conducteur à venir en prise avec l'élément de verrouillage, ce qui permet d'arrêter le mouvement entre le ou les éléments conducteurs et e ou les éléments de verrouillage.
