Title: Service reception restricted radio communication set and method
IPC: H04W88/02
Filed: 2000-03-22
Abstract: User-controlled restriction of service reception, for example in a protected area such as a plane or a hospital is achieved by allowing the user to set a threshold for a received signal strength below which reception is disabled. Thus the threshold can be set high in a protected area. Additionally, a predetermined threshold operates so that reception is disabled when the communication unit is outside the range of a base station so as to reduce power consumption by the unit. The unit comprises a radio transceiver 1, a programmer 3, and a display 5. the programmer causes the prevailing received signal level to be displayed and stores the user input threshold and the predetermined threshold and sets the transceiver unit 1 into a transmission mode, a reception mode, a waiting mode, or an out-of range mode in accordance with th comparison of the received signal level with the thresholds.

Title: Biomarker
IPC: G01N33/74
Filed: 2002-09-19
Abstract: One of the major pathophysiological consequences of long term elevation of plasma glucose in diabetes is an increase in the non-enzymatic glycation of proteins. Contrary to expectations the present inventors have determined that individuals with well controlled short duration diabetes have particularly high concentrations of glycated insulin which decrease with increased disease severity and duration of diabetes. Further, a small proportion of apparently normal healthy individuals exhibit high glycated insulin levels in line with expected incidence of diabetes in the population. Methods of predicting the onset of diabetes and for monitoring the progression of diabetes by measuring the concentration of Glycated Insulin and the progression of diabetes are disclosed.

Title: Method and system for estimating global motion in video sequences
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2002-11-26
Abstract: Global motion between frames of a motion-compensated inter-frame encoded video sequence is estimated directly from the motion vectors encoded within the frames. For any particular frame, the motion vectors are first decoded, and a finite number of sets of vectors are selected. An affine or other geometrical transform is then used to generate a motion estimation for each set, and then the least median squared error present in each motion estimation is calculated for each estimation. The motion estimation with the smallest least median squared error is then selected as being representative of the global motion in the image of the frame. A panoramic image generating method and system makes uses of the global motion estimations thus obtained.
