Inventor: XU HENGYONG
IPC: B01D71/02
Filed: 2005-01-07
Granted: 2010-05-27
Abstract: Process for preparing a two layer metal palladium or palladium alloy composite membrane consisting of a porous substrate support and a palladium or palladium alloy membrane by rinsing/washing and drying the porous substrate support, treating the porous substrate support with a pore filler in order to decorate the pores of the support and the disfigurements of the substrate surface, sensitizing and activating with a palladium solution the decorated substrate support, and plating the resulting support with a palladium solution to form the two layer composite membrane, drying.

Title: A method and system for processing video data
Inventor: XU LI-QUN
IPC: G06V10/28
Filed: 2005-10-24
Granted: 2010-08-26
Abstract: In an intelligent video surveillance system, video processing software performs a number of operations on video data received from a camera, including foreground extraction, shadow removal and object tracking. The foreground extraction stage classifies each pixel of a received frame as representing either foreground or background. Since shadow regions can be wrongly classified as foreground, a two-branch shadow removal operation is employed, comprising weak shadow removal (32) and strong shadow removal (33). The purpose of weak shadow removal (32) is to remove only the most severe shadows in each frame. Conversely, the purpose of strong shadow removal (33) is to remove substantially every shadow present in each frame. By comparing the overlap of foreground regions in the two resulting images, it is possible to identify foreground regions that have fragmented due to strong shadow removal, and thereafter classify them as representing a common foreground object. Foreground objects are better defined in terms of their shape and subsequent processing stages will not treat fragmented regions as representing separate objects.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided that improve the specificity and efficiency of nucleic acid amplification. A binding partner may be bound to a DNA polymerase enzyme where the binding partner substantially inhibits the activity of the polymerase. A second enzyme modifies the binding partner in a manner that relieves the inhibition of the polymerase activity.

Title: Suppression of vortex induced vibration
Inventor: SOMERVILLE DAVID MICHAEL RUTHVEN
IPC: F16B7/14
Filed: 2007-10-15
Granted: 2012-07-19
Abstract: A device and method are disclosed for suppressing vortex induced vibration of a submerged elongate member such as a marine riser. Also disclosed is a marine riser having VTV suppression features. The VIV suppression features comprise multiple circumferential de-correlation rings at intervals along the member's length, each ring comprising multiple vortex tripping features at intervals around the member. The ring may for example take the form of a clamp (10) used to locate fairing units (108). However it may alternatively be a loose ring mounted on the member, or may comprise discrete features at intervals around the circumference of the member. By reducing correlation between shed vortices at different locations on the pipe, embodiments of the invention serve to prevent or reduce the coherent action of shed vortices which lead to VIV.

Abstract: A method for position tracking includes placing an internal reference probe in a reference location within a heart of a subject, and collecting and processing first location coordinates of the internal reference probe during one or more respiratory 5 cycles so as to define a range of the location coordinates corresponding to the reference location. An active device is inserted into the heart, and second location coordinates of the active device are collected. The first and second location coordinates are jointly processed so as to find relative location coordinates of the active device in a cardiac frame of reference. When a deviation of the first location 10 coordinates from the range is detected, the relative location coordinates are corrected to compensate for displacement of the reference probe from the reference location. 03/06/08,kn 17307 specification,19
