Abstract: IL-28A, IL-28B, IL-29, and certain mutants thereof have been shown to have antiviral activity on a spectrum of viral species. Of particular interest is the antiviral activity demonstrated on viruses that infect liver, such as hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus. In addition, IL-28A, IL-28B, IL-29, and mutants thereof do not exhibit some of the antiproliferative activity on hematopoietic cells that is observed with interferon treatment. Without the immunosuppressive effects accompanying interferon treatment, IL-28A, IL-28B, and IL-29 will be useful in treating immunocompromised patients for viral infections.

Title: Stabilizing power source for a vehicle
Inventor: BASTIAN WILLIAM ALLEN II
IPC: A61F6/04
Filed: 2006-09-01
Abstract: A power source for a vehicle includes at least one toroidal ring (14, 16) positioned in a housing (12). The toroidal ring (14, 16) includes magnetic material such as permanent magnets (22, 24, 26, 52, 54, 56). The toroidal ring (14, 16) is magnetically levitated in the housing (12).

Once moving, the magnetic material and the propulsion winding (46, 66) cooperate to produce electrical power and/or provide a stabilizing effect for the vehicle. In some applications, such as in an aircraft (300) application, two or more toroidal rings (14, 16) may be used and rotated at counter directions so as to produce a predetermined net angular momentum.

Title: Frame by frame, pixel by pixel matching of model-generated graphics images to camera frames for computer vision
Inventor: TAPANG CARLOS
IPC: G06T15/00
Filed: 2006-09-12
Abstract: There are two distinct tasks in vision or image processing. On the one hand there is the difficult task of image analysis and feature recognition, and on the other there is the less difficult task of computing the 3D world position of the camera given an input image. In biological vision, these two tasks are intertwined together such that it is difficult to distinguish one from the other. We perceive our position in world coordinates by recognizing and triangulating from features around us. It seems we can not triangulate if we don't identify first the features we triangulate from, and we can't really identify unless we can place a feature somewhere in the 3D world we live in.  Most, if not all, vision systems in prior art are an attempt to implement both tasks in the same system. For instance, reference patent number US5,801,970 comprises both tasks; reference patent number US6,704,621 seems to comprise of triangulation alone, but it actually requires recognition of the road. If the triangulation task can indeed be made separate from and independent of the analysis and feature recognition tasks, then we would need half as much computing resources in a system that does not perform the latter task. By taking advantage of current advances in graphics processing, this invention allows for triangulation of the camera position without the usual scene analysis and feature recognition. It utilizes an a priori, accurate model of the world within the field of vision. The 3D model is rendered onto a graphics surface using the latest graphics processing units. Each frame coming from the camera is then searched for a best match in a number of candidate renderings on the graphics surface. The count of rendered images to compare to is made small by computing the change in camera position and angle of view from one frame to another, and then using the results of such computations to limit the next possible positions and angles of view to render the a priori world model.  The main advantage of this invention over prior art is the mapping of the real world onto a world model. One application for which this is most suited is robotic programming. A robot that is guided by an a priori map and that knows its position in that map is far more superior to one that is not so guided. It is superior with regards to navigation, homing, path finding, obstacle avoidance, aiming for point of attention, and other robotic tasks.

Abstract: The tetracycline class of antibiotics has played a major role in the treatment of infectious diseases for the past 50 years. However, the increased use of the tetracyclines in human and veterinary medicine has led to resistance among many organisms previously susceptible to tetracycline antibiotics. The modular synthesis of tetracyclines and tetracycline analogs described provides an efficient and enantioselective route to a variety of tetracycline analogs and polycyclines previously inaccessible via earlier tetracycline syntheses and semi-synthetic methods. These analogs may be used as anti- microbial agents or anti-pro liferative agents in the treatment of diseases of humans or other animals.
