Abstract: Described is a novel family of cell surface serpentine transmembrane antigens. Two of the proteins in this family are exclusively or predominantly expressed in the prostate, as well as in prostate cancer, and thus members of this family have been termed "STEAP" ( S ix  T ransmembrane  E pithelial  A ntigen of the  P rostrate). Four particular human STEAPs are described and characterized herein. The human STEAPs exhibit high degree of structural conservation among them but show no significant structural homology to any known human proteins. The prototype member of the STEAP family, STEAP-1, appears to be a type IIIa membrane protein expressed predominantly in prostate cells in normal human tissues. Structurally, STEAP-1 is a 339 amino acid protein characterized by a molecular topology of six transmembrane domains and intracellular N- and C-termini, suggesting that it folds in a "serpentine" manner into three extracellular and two intracellular loops. STEAP-1 protein expression is maintained at high levels across various stages of prostate cancer. Moreover, STEAP-1 is highly over-expressed in certain other human cancers.

Abstract: A global optimization framework for optical character recognition (OCR) of low-resolution photographed documents that combines a binarization-type process, segmentation, and recognition into a single process. The framework includes a machine learning approach trained on a large amount of data. A convolutional neural network can be employed to compute a classification function at multiple positions and take grey-level input which eliminates binarization. The framework utilizes preprocessing, layout analysis, character recognition, and word recognition to output high recognition rates. The framework also employs dynamic programming and language models to arrive at the desired output.

Abstract: A combination lock (100) including various features that make the lock manipulation-resistant. The lock (100) has a rocker arm (106) with a curved underside section (148) that contacts a roller (146) on a cam (144) that rotates when the lock dial is rotated. The smooth curve and an angled contact portion (149) on the rocker arm (106) causes the force applied to the rocker arm (106) by the roller (146) to be gradual rather than abrupt, ensuring that the contact point between the rocker arm (106) and the roller (146) is unpredictable. 
     The lock (100) may also include various spring-biased relocking devices that are biased away from the travel path of the bolt (116) when the back cover (104) is attached to the housing (102). The biasing force in the relocking device causes the device to move into the travel path of the bolt (116) when the back cover (104) is displaced or removed, preventing the bolt (116) from moving to an unlocked position. 
     The lock (100) may also include a toothed washer (141) having a trapezoidal tooth (300) and a corresponding trapezoidal notch (302) in a tube (122) in the lock housing (102) to eliminate transfer of rotation from one wheel (120) to another. The trapezoidal shapes eliminate air gaps between the tooth (300) and the notch (302), tightening the dial span of the lock (100).
