Patent EP-1258999-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YEDIDIA JONATHAN S
IPC: G06F11/10
Filed: 2002-04-24
Abstract: A method evaluates an error-correcting code for a data block of a finite size. An
error-correcting code is defined by a parity check matrix, wherein columns
represent variable bits and rows represent parity bits. The parity check matrix is
represented as a bipartite graph. A single node in the bipartite graph is iteratively
renormalized until the number of nodes in the bipartite graph is less than a
predetermine threshold. During the iterative renormalization, a particular variable
node is selected as a target node, and a distance between the target node and every
other node in the bipartite graph is measured. Then, if there is at least one leaf
variable node, renormalize the leaf variable node farthest from the target node,
otherwise, renormalize a leaf check node farthest from the target node, and
otherwise renormalize a variable node farthest from the target node and having
fewest directly connected check nodes. By evaluating many error-correcting codes
according to the method, an optimal code according to selected criteria can be
obtained.

Abstract: A start value is x bits in size and is used to provide an initial value to an n-bit
security count value. A wireless communications device establishes channels with a
compatible device, and releases channels established with the compatible device. For
every channel established by the wireless communications device, a corresponding
terminal value is obtained. A terminal value for a channel is the highest value reached
by the x most significant bits (MSB x ) of an n-bit security count value associated with
the channel. The security count value is used to encipher data transmitted along the
channel. A final value that is obtained that is the greatest value of all the terminal
values. Finally, a start value is stored in the memory of the wireless device that is at
least as large as the final value.

Title: Method and apparatus for generating texture for 3D facial model

IPC: G06T15/04
Filed: 2002-12-11
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for generating textures for a three-dimensional
(3D) facial model are provided. The method for generating textures for a three
dimensional (3D) facial model provides extracting texture coordinate from a
magnification result of a predetermined central facial portion by a predetermined
rate and a reduction result of peripheral portion by the predetermined rate, by
substituting transformed model coordinate generated by transforming a standard
model for a frontal image and at least one side face image of a face into a
conversion function in order to convert the transformed model coordinate into pixel
coordinate; and interpolating the frontal and side face image, which is received
from a user in response to the analysis result of the transformed model coordinate,
by using the texture coordinate in the unit of polygon, which is decided by the pixel
coordinate, to determine the interpolation result as transformed texture, in which
the central facial portion is a region established by a user with centering upon the
eyes of the face and the peripheral portion is a region corresponding to the region
except for the central facial portion of the face. Therefore, a compression unit and
a recovery unit in software and hardware manners are not required. In addition,
an excellent texture can be generated by using a frontal image and side face
images that are photographed under different lighting conditions, and boundaries
between polygons can be naturally processed. Moreover, an excellent texture can
be generated by using a limited amount of resources in comparison with the
conventional method. As a result, a clear 3D facial model can be generated.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method for treating and/or evaluating photodamage and/or photoaging of skin caused by exposure to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The method employs a unique set of marker genes whose expression was newly found to be altered following exposure of skin to UV radiation. The invention provides an advantageous system of identifying and assessing substances that are capable of modulating, e.g., via attenuation, UV radiation induced alteration or change in the expression of at least one of the newly provided marker genes in skin relative to the gene expression level in skin not exposed to UV radiation. Also provided are compositions comprising materials that upon application to skin can modulate the gene expression of at least one gene of the marker gene set after exposure of skin to UV radiation, thereby affording protective and therapeutic effects and treatments for photodamage and photoaging. The potential benefit of, e.g., skincare, hair care, cosmetic, and personal care agents, and nutritional supplements, as materials having antiphotodamage and/or antiphotoaging properties can be assessed using the present method.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'optimisation de la vitesse de propagation de signaux sur le tracé d'un câblage. D'une manière générale, le procédé tient compte des effets d'inductance et utilise les effets d'inductance provoqués par la propagation d'un signal rapide sur un fil de signal entouré de fils de terre parallèles. En particulier, un des paramètres physiques définissant le tracé du câblage peut être ajusté pour créer une relation rlc dans le tracé de câblage maximisant la vitesse de propagation des signaux. Le paramètre physique qui est ajusté peut être, par exemple, la séparation des fils entre le fil de signaux et les fils de terre ou la largeur des fils de terre. Le procédé décrit peut aussi être appliqué à un tracé de câblage ayant des ramifications multiples, telles qu'un arbre d'horloge. Dans ce contexte, une première ramification peut être optimisée à l'aide du procédé décrit. Les ramifications situées en aval peuvent ensuite être ajustées de manière que les impédances au niveau de la jonction entre les ramifications soient sensiblement égales.
