Patent EP-1281404-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BRUENNER NILS
IPC: C07K16/00
Filed: 1991-10-18
Abstract: The present invention discloses the use of a monoclonal or polyclonal antibody directed
against urokinase plansminogen activator receptor (u-PAR), or a subsequence, analogue or
glycosylation variant thereof. The antibodies react with free u-PAR or with complexes
between u-PA and u-PAR and are able to inhibit the binding of pro-u-PA and active u-PA to
u-PAR and thereby inhibit cell surface plasminogen activation. Thus, methods for
preventing or counteracting proteolytic activity in a mammal is disclosed. Furthermore are
screening methods for selecting substances suitable for inhibiting u-PA/u-PAR interactions
disclosed. The substances identified by the screening method and the antibodies directed
against u-PAR can be used for preventing or counteracting localized proteolytical activity in
a mammal, such as for inhibiting the invasion and/or metastasis in a mammal.

produce, a first exit stream; and   B. passing the exit stream, through a second column to partition,
based on a second, different physico-chemical property, candidate ligands,
said complexes, to generate a second exit stream comprising a subset of
candidate ligands having affinity for said target molecule, wherein at least

Title: Adaptive digital sub-array beamforming and deterministic sum  and difference beamforming with jamming cancellation and monopulse ratio preservation
Inventor: YU KAI BOR
IPC: H01Q3/26
Filed: 2002-06-17
Abstract: A radar system and technique provide the capability to detect a target of
interest and maintain the detection in the presence of multiple mainlobe and
sidelobe jamming interference. The system and technique utilize the versatility
of digital beamforming to form sub-arrays for canceling jamming interference.
Jamming is adaptively suppressed in the sub-arrays prior to using conventional
deterministic methods to form the sum, Σ, and difference, Δ, beams for
monopulse processing. The system and technique provide the ability to detect
a target of interest, provide an undistorted monopulse ratio,  m , and maintain
target angle estimation, in the presence of multiple mainlobe and multiple
sidelobe jammers. Further, this system and technique are not constrained by
requiring  a priori  knowledge of the jamming interference.

Abstract: A matrix array device, for example, an active matrix display device, image sensor, or the like, comprises a matrix circuit ( 12, 14, 16, 18 ) carried on a flexible substrate ( 20 ) which circuit includes an array of semiconductor devices ( 12 ), such as TFTs, occupying discrete areas. Selected regions of the substrate ( 20 ) away from the semiconductor devices ( 12 ) are formed as areas of weakness to encourage flexing of the substrate to occur preferentially at those regions upon bending of the device and so reduce the risk of damage to the semiconductor devices. The regions, for example, may comprise lines of weakness ( 50, 52 ) extending between the semiconductor devices and may be formed by localized thinning of the substrate or by treating the substrate material to modify its stiffness at predetermined areas.

Abstract: By taking into account the individual positions of the sub-pixels (108-118) on a color matrix display device (100), the apparent resolution can be increased. Sub-pixel sampling to determine samples at the correct position is incorporated in the image scaling filter (502). The filter response is such that the useful resolution inherent in the color matrix display device (100) can be used. In the filter design, a trade-off is made between sharpness and color errors. The scaling (216) is performed on e.g. a YUV signal, thereby saving bandwidth. The luminance signal Y is e.g. sub-sampled at high sub-pixel resolution, and the U and V components at pixel resolution. The sub-pixel positions are then taken into account in the YUV to RGB conversion (218).

Abstract: Selon l'invention, la détermination de l'emplacement de conditions d'erreur ou d'une défaillance consiste au niveau d'une interface de réseau à recevoir un premier signal numérique à trame d'un équipement de locaux d'un client, et à déterminer si le premier signal numérique à trame indique une défaillance. Des bits supplémentaires sont modifiés dans le premier signal numérique tramé afin de générer un second signal numérique tramé, de sorte que la modification soit équivalente à l'insertion d'erreurs dans le premier signal numérique tramé selon un taux d'erreur sur les bits (BER) inférieur à un taux prédéterminé, si le premier signal numérique tramé indique une défaillance. Le second signal numérique tramé est alors envoyé à partir de l'interface de réseau, à la place du premier signal numérique tramé, afin d'indiquer que la défaillance rapportée par le premier signal tramé est située dans ledit équipement de locaux d'un client. Ou bien, si aucune défaillance n'est indiquée, le premier signal numérique tramé est transmis sans modification.

Abstract: A system for detecting cancerous or precancerous lesions directs light
produced from a mercury arc lamp (100) into an illumination guide (106) of an
endoscope. Autofluorescence light produced by the tissue under examination is
divided into red and green spectral bands by a beam splitter (120). Light in the red
and green spectral band is applied to a pair of image intensified CCD cameras (126,
130). The output of the camera that receives light in the red spectral band is coupled
to a red video input of a color video monitor (150). Light produced by the camera that
receives light in the green spectral band is coupled to the blue and green video inputs
of the video monitor. The system produces a false color display, whereby healthy
tissue appears cyan in color and cancerous or precancerous lesions appear reddish in
color. The image displayed allows the operator to see the lesions within the context of
the underlying tissue structures. The color contrast is adjustable to account for the
autofluorescence property changes from patient to patient and from location to
location.
