Title: Determination of the location of an electrical disturbance
Inventor: DAVIS ANDREW CERI
IPC: G01R31/50
Filed: 2013-01-10
Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining the location of an electrical disturbance in a circuit are disclosed. The relative phase of current and voltage waveforms across the circuit inductance of a portion of a circuit produced by a voltage or current perturbation is determined and the location of the electrical disturbance within the circuit is identified from the relative phase of the current and voltage waveforms. The relative phase of the current and voltage waveforms across the inductance of a portion of the circuit may be determined by calculating the sign (positive or negative) of the inductance of that portion of the circuit. Being able to determine the location of an electrical disturbance, for example within a particular distribution leg from a plurality of distribution legs, enables just the leg effected by the electrical disturbance to be isolated whist the remaining portions of the circuit, such as various other loads or other components and the power source to continue in operation.

Title: Method and apparatus for single-particle localization using wavelet analysis
Inventor: SIBARITA JEAN-BAPTISTE
IPC: G06T7/00
Filed: 2013-01-16
Abstract: Accurate localization of isolated particles is important in single particle based super-resolution microscopy. It allows the imaging of biological samples with nanometer-scale resolution using a simple fluorescence microscopy setup. Nevertheless, conventional techniques for localizing single particles can take minutes to hours of computation time because they require up to a million localizations to form an image. In contrast, the present particle localization techniques use wavelet-based image decomposition and image segmentation to achieve nanometer-scale resolution in two dimensions within seconds to minutes. This two-dimensional localization can be augmented with localization in a third dimension based on a fit to the imaging system's point-spread function (PSF), which may be asymmetric along the optical axis. For an astigmatic imaging system, the PSF is an ellipse whose eccentricity and orientation varies along the optical axis. When implemented with a mix of CPU/GPU processing, the present techniques are fast enough to localize single particles while imaging (in real-time).

Inventor: SHACHAR YEHOSHUA
IPC: G01N27/26
Filed: 2011-06-22
Abstract: A biosensor for detection of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) hybridization uses an array of parallel capacitors to detect electrochemical binding of circulating VEGF to immobilized anti-VEGF monoclonal half-antibodies (a-VEGF mhAb). Binding of a-VEGF mhAb modulates the threshold voltage of a circuit, changing the impedance of the circuit. An electrode coated with a p-Si substrate enhances the affinity between the VEGF molecules. A fluid cell delivers VEGF samples onto the active surface of the chip. An array of parallel capacitors arranged in an interdigitated pattern detects the VEGF in the fluid. The detector provides an accurately measured and quantifiable rate of change of the VEGF molecules in vivo, providing real time feedback which is used to measure response of the tumor to delivered chemotherapeutic agents and biological response modifiers (BRMs) for the purpose of determining tumor burden and efficacy of the chemotherapy as part of a homeostatic loop for chemotherapy.
