Title: Methods of stimulating an anti-tumor response using a selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator
Inventor: GREENSTEIN ANDREW E
IPC: A61K31/4745
Filed: 2021-02-09
Granted: 2024-01-18
Abstract: Methods of improving immune function in a cancer patient having a solid tumor are disclosed. The improvement in immune function may slow or stop tumor growth, and may reduce tumor load. Methods include administering effective amounts of a cancer treatment and a nonsteroidal glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM) or selective GRM (SGRM). The cancer treatment may include administration of a checkpoint inhibitor. GRM or SGRM administration may induce checkpoint-inhibitor sensitivity in the cancer. Improved immune function may include increased CD8+ T-cell activation, increased pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion, increased TNFα secretion, increased IFNγ secretion, and other changes as compared to such activation and secretion prior to GRM administration. In embodiments, immune function is improved after 1, 2, 3, or more days of GRM administration. Other patient characteristics may also be improved by the methods disclosed herein. GRMs include heteroaryl-ketone fused azadecalin and octahydro fused azadecalin GRMs. GRM administration includes oral GRM administration.

Abstract: SEARCH REGION FOR MOTION VECTOR REFINEMENT 
ABSTRACT 
The present invention relates to the construction of a search space for determining a motion 
vector for a current block of a picture in a video sequence. The search space construction is 
split into in two main stages, wherein a first and a second partial search space are respectively 
determined. Based on an initial estimate of a motion vector, a first search space is first 
constructed. A first and a second candidate motion of the first search space are identified 
according to a cost function. Based on the first and the second candidate motion vectors, a 
second search space is constructed. The motion vector for the current block is selected from 
the candidate motion vectors of the first search space and the second search space.

Title: Li recovery processes and onsite chemical production for li recovery processes
Inventor: DARA SAAD
IPC: B01D61/00
Filed: 2021-12-23
Granted: 2022-07-21
Abstract: In this disclosure, a process of recycling acid, base and the salt reagents required 
in the Li recovery process is introduced. A membrane electrolysis cell which incorporates 
an oxygen depolarized cathode is implemented to generate the required chemicals 
onsite. The system can utilize a portion of the salar brine or other lithium-containing 
brine or solid waste to generate hydrochloric or sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide and 
carbonate salts. Simultaneous generation of acid and base allows for taking advantage of 
both chemicals during the conventional Li recovery from brines and mineral rocks. The 
desalinated water can also be used for the washing steps on the recovery process or 
returned into the evaporation ponds. The method also can be used for the direct 
conversion of lithium salts to the high value LiOH product. The method does not produce 
any solid effluent which makes it easy-to-adopt for use in existing industrial Li recovery 
plants.

Abstract: A closed-loop, multimode, mixed-domain linear prediction (MDLP) speech coder includes a high-rate, time-domain coding mode, a low-rate, frequency-domain coding mode, and a closed-loop mode-selection mechanism for selecting a coding mode for the coder based upon the speech content of frames input to the coder. Transition speech (i.e., from unvoiced speech to voiced speech, or vice versa) frames are encoded with the high-rate, time-domain coding mode, which may be a CELP coding mode. Voiced speech frames are encoded with the low-rate, frequency-domain coding mode, which may be a harmonic coding mode. Phase parameters are not encoded by the frequency-domain coding mode, and are instead modeled in accordance with, e.g., a quadratic phase model. For each speech frame encoded with the frequency-domain coding mode, the initial phase value is taken to be the initial phase value of the immediately preceding speech frame encoded with the frequency-domain coding mode. If the immediately preceding speech frame was encoded with the time-domain coding mode, the initial phase value of the current speech frame is computed from the decoded speech frame information of the immediately preceding, time-domain-encoded speech frame. Each speech frame encoded with the frequency-domain coding mode may be compared with the corresponding input speech frame to obtain a performance measure. If the performance measure falls below a predefined threshold value, the input speech frame is encoded with the time-domain coding mode.
