IPC: H03M7/30

Abstract: The invention relates to a coding system for lossless and lossy compression of still
and motion images with means of statistical context modeling for adaptive entropy
coding of wavelet coefficients in different conditioning templates. Furthermore, it is
directed to a method for lossless and lossy compression of still and motion image data
by hierarchical decomposing of said image data into subbands by a revertible wavelet
transform that generates wavelet coefficients and by using a conditioning template for
statistical context modeling and adaptive entropy coding of said wavelet coefficients.
The compression ratio is improved by one or more of the following steps:
     adapting the shape and/or orientation of said conditioning template to different
subbands;   converting a two-dimensional array of signed wavelet coefficients into an equivalent
sequence of only two input symbols for adaptive binary entropy coding;   using previously scanned bit planes in forming conditioning templates;   reducing the number of possible conditioning states corresponding to all possible
combinations of events in the conditioning templates by using least-squares estimates
of magnitudes of wavelet coefficients;   reducing the number of possible conditioning states corresponding to all possible
combinations of events in the conditioning templates by first using least-squares
estimates of magnitudes of wavelet conditions: and then by minimum-entropy quantization
of said estimates:   comparing the so-far-coded bits of the coefficient   being presently coded with
the so-far-coded bits of the neighbouring coefficients and parent coefficient of     to
characterise spacial texture patterns and using them to augment the conditioning
states created by the quantization of said estimates;   conditioning the sign of a wavelet coefficient     on the signs of neighbouring
coefficients of    .   recording for each subband the location of the most significant bit of the coefficient
of maximum magnitude in the subband and including it as side information in
the code stream.

Abstract: The described tread band (1) has laterally opposite
transverse channels (6), each having a substantially
rectilinear end stretch (6a) extending with an
appropriate inclination from a respective outer side
edge (1a), a connecting stretch (6c) of curvilinear
extension and an inner end stretch (6b) terminating

opposite transverse channel, to define a transverse
groove (3) of undulated extension. Also provided are
two longitudinal grooves (2) consisting of
substantially rectilinear stretches (2a) each extending
between two transverse grooves (3) in a direction
inclined to the equatorial plane (X). L-shaped

Abstract: A computer implemented method and apparatus is disclosed for
mounting a user removable media in a computer system includes acquiring
(109) a media identifier input (50) and a function identifier input
(52) from a user of the computer system. The media identifier input
identifies the user removable media, and the function identifier input
specifies a mounting operation to be performed on the user removable
media. The media identifier and the function identifier inputs are
processed to access a system media interface (12) of the computer
system, for example, by converting (116) the media identifier input to
a physical path of the user removable media in the computer system, and
determining (118) if the physical path of the media identifier input is
valid within the computer system. A simulated media event (36, 38) is
generated to mount (18) the user removable media in the computer
system. If desired, a determination (122) may be made whether the user
has valid permission to control the user removable media identified by
the media identifier input. This may be performed by reading a media
permission level associated with the user removable media identified by
the media identifier input, reading a user permission level associated
with the user, and comparing the media permission level to the user
permission level.

Abstract: An eddy current sensor comprises a generally E-shaped magnetic core of a ferrite material having three parallel legs joined together by a flux bridge. Current carryi ng coils are mounted on each of the outer legs and a signal coil is mounted on the central leg. Identical a.c. currents are caused to flow through the two outer coils for generating two magnetic fields which combine to form a sensing magnetic field extending outwardly from the ends of the legs but which cancel one another within the central leg. A conductive moving object passing through the sensing field disturbs the nulled fields through the central coil for thus generating an electrical signal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne les effets déterminables de l'exposition à l'éthanol sur la localisation des cellules et l'abondance de protéines spécifiques, désignées ici par le terme de 'protéines indicatrices'. Plus spécifiquement, l'invention est basée, en partie, sur la découverte selon laquelle la sous-unité catalytique Cα de la protéine kinase dépendante de l'AMPc, qui est normalement localisée dans la zone des appareils de Golgi, semble subir une translocation l'amenant dans le noyau après exposition d'une cellule à l'éthanol. Elle est également basée sur l'observation selon laquelle la sous-unité δ de la PKC subit une translocation l'amenant de la zone de Golgi à la zone périnucléaire et au noyau en réponse à une exposition à l'éthanol, tandis que la sous-unité ε de la PKC migre de la zone périnucléaire dans le cytoplasme. L'invention concerne également la découverte selon laquelle la quantité détectable de sous-unité régulatrice RI de la PKA diminue, tandis que la quantité détectable de PKCα, PKCδ et PKCε augmente, après exposition d'une cellule à l'éthanol. Ces découvertes constituent une base pour des analyses qui peuvent être utilisés afin de détecter l'exposition de cellules à l'éthanol et pour des analyses qui peuvent être utilisées pour le criblage de médicaments ou la mise au point de traitements permettant de moduler les effets de la consommation d'éthanol. L'invention concerne en outre des trousses permettant de détecter l'exposition de cellules à l'éthanol. Ces trousses peuvent comprendre des anticorps, de préférence marqués, capables de se fixer sélectivement sur la sous-unité Cα ou la sous-unité RI de la protéine kinase dépendante de l'AMPc ou de se fixer sélectivement sur la PKCα, la PKCδ et la PKCε.
