Abstract: A multi-resolution label locator system divides an input image into a plurality of multi-pixel cells. The multi-resolution label locator system then creates a decimated image or low resolution image corresponding to the input image. The decimated image includes a common-characteristic value that corresponds to a multi-pixel cell of the input image. The multi-resolution label locator system identifies one or more areas within the decimated image that have characteristics corresponding to the characteristics of interest. While generating the decimated image, the multi-resolution label locator system simultaneously creates an edge-occurrence image that corresponds to the input image. The edge-occurrence image includes an edge value that corresponds to each cell of the input image. Each edge value represents the number of occurrences of an edge within the pixels of a corresponding cell of the input image. The multi-resolution label locator system identifies one or more candidate areas within the input image that have decimated-image characteristics and edge-occurrence image characteristics corresponding to the characteristics of interest. The multi-resolution label locator system then classifies the candidate areas according to the likelihood of the input image containing indicia having the characteristics of interest. Lastly, the multi-resolution label locator system compiles a list of one or more candidate areas that most likely contain indicia having the characteristics of interest.

Abstract: Inner and outer primary and matrix material compositions which, after curing, exhibit a high degree of uniformity after curing even when the coating is applied onto optical fibers at relatively high shear rates, e.g., such as those experienced at high optical fiber coating line speeds. These compositions are provided in significant part by the selective incorporation of at least one radiation-curable oligomer into the compositions. In particular, and with respect to inner primary coatings, the oligomer should be selected so that the value m of an uncured radiation-curable inner primary coating composition in the equation <maths id="MATH-US-00001" num="1"> <MATH OVERFLOW="SCROLL"> <MTABLE> <MTR> <MTD> <MROW> <MI>tau</MI> <MO>=</MO> <MFRAC> <MROW> <MI>K</MI> <MO>⁢</MO> <MSTYLE> <MTEXT> </MTEXT> </MSTYLE> <MO>⁢</MO> <MI>lambda</MI> <MO>⁢</MO> <MSTYLE> <MTEXT> </MTEXT> </MSTYLE> <MO>⁢</MO> <MI>gamma</MI> </MROW> <MROW> <MN>1</MN> <MO>+</MO> <MSUP> <MROW> <MO>(</MO> <MROW> <MI>lambda</MI> <MO>⁢</MO> <MSTYLE> <MTEXT> </MTEXT> </MSTYLE> <MO>⁢</MO> <MI>gamma</MI> </MROW> <MO>)</MO> </MROW> <MI>m</MI> </MSUP> </MROW> </MFRAC> </MROW> </MTD> <MTD> <MROW> <MO>(</MO> <MI>I</MI> <MO>)</MO> </MROW> </MTD> </MTR> </MTABLE> </MATH> </MATHS> is advantageously equal to or greater than about 0.90.

Abstract: This invention concerns interactions among APRIL/G70, AGP-3/BLYS, BCMA, and TACI and related methods of use and compositions of matter. It has been found that (1) sAPRIL/G70 binds to the cell-surface receptors BCMA and TACI on T and B lymphoma cells, resulting in stimulation of proliferation of primary human and mouse B and T cells both in vitro and in vivo; (2) APRIL competes with AGP3's binding to TACI and BCMA; (3) sBCMA inhibits APRIL and AGP3 binding to its receptors; (4) sBCMA ameliorates T cell dependent and T cell independent humoral immune responses in vivo; (5) sTACI inhibits APRIL and AGP3 binding to its receptors and ameliorates T cell dependent and T cell independent humoral immune responses in vivo; and (6) BCMA exhibits similarity with TACI within a single cysteine rich domain located N-terminal to a potential transmembrane domain. These discoveries provides a strategy for development of therapeutics for treatment of autoimmune diseases, and cancer, for prevention of transplant rejection. Disease states and disease parameters associated with APRIL and AGP-3 may be affected by modulation of BCMA or TACI; disease states and parameters associated with TACI can be affected by modulation of APRIL; disease states and parameters can be affected by modulation of any of TACI, BCMA, APRIL and AGP-3 by a single therapeutic agent or two or more therapeutic agents together.

Abstract: A variable indication estimator which determines an output value representative of a set of input data. For example, the estimator can reduce input data to estimates of a desired signal, select a time, and determine an output value from the estimates and the time. In one embodiment, the time is selected using one or more adjustable signal confidence parameters determine where along the estimates the output value will be computed. By varying the parameters, the characteristics of the output value are variable. For example, when input signal confidence is low, the parameters are adjusted so that the output value is a smoothed representation of the input signal. When input signal confidence is high, the parameters are adjusted so that the output value has a faster and more accurate response to the input signal.
