Title: Hearing aid and a method of detecting and attenuating transients
Inventor: JAKOB NIELSEN
IPC: G10L21/02
Filed: 2009-01-20
Abstract: A hearing aid has means (15) for detecting fast transients in the input signal and means (16, 12, 13) for attenuating the detected transients prior to presenting the signal with the attenuated transients to a user. Detection is performed by measuring the peak difference of the signal upstream of a band split filter bank (11) and comparing the peak difference against at least one peak difference limit. Then, if a transient is detected, a state machine (20) analyzes the peak level and the absolute average level of the signal and engages a gain calculator (12) to follow either the peak level or the absolute average level of the input signal for at least the duration of the transient in order to attenuate the transient. The engagement of the gain calculator (12) is performed in each frequency band dependent of the detected transient. The invention further provides a method for detecting fast transients.

Title: Eco-resource slag effective utilization system
Inventor: JIRO TONEGAWA
IPC: C21B3/04
Filed: 2010-10-22
Abstract: Abstract Slags, including the harmful-substance-containing slags, are not directly melted but are neutralized and processed into eco-resource materials, so that the slugs can be effectively utilized to purify and revive a large area of polluted water without any burden on the environment. Predetermined proportions of a non-recyclable harmful-substance-containing unused slag selected from by-product slags produced during the refining of a metal such as iron, copper, or aluminum from an ore, a porcelain clay for ceramics, and a mineral clay for ceramics, such as a quartz powder or an alumina powder, are kneaded to form a clay material with a suitable size. The clay material is burnt in a burning oven for ceramics at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined period of time so that a liquid glaze can sufficiently penetrate into the inner region of the clay material, thereby forming a biscuit clay material. A liquid glaze produced by kneading a powder made from a crushed special natural stone with a glaze for ceramics in a predetermined ratio followed by aging is applied, for example, to the biscuit clay material. As a result, a harmful-substance-containing unused slag is neutralized and used as an eco-resource filter medium. [Fig. 5 ] 4/16 .1.- fl 34-

Title: System and method for producing coal bed methane
Inventor: KAMINSKY ROBERT
IPC: E21B43/16
Filed: 2010-05-13
Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present technology provide systems and methods for producing power from coalbed methane (CBM) with decreased CO emissions. For example, a method of producing power according to an exemplary embodiment includes converting a feedstock from a hydrocarbon source into a gas mixture comprising CO and H. The gas mixture is injected into a coalbed to cause CBM to desorb from the coal and CO to adsorb onto the coal. The hydrocarbon source is separate from the coalbed, i.e., does not exchange hydrocarbons with the hydrocarbon source. A gas mixture is produced from the coalbed, wherein the produced gas mixture includes H and CH. The gas mixture may be combusted to generate power, while releasing lower amounts of CO than would be released from the combustion of pure CH.

Title: Social graph that includes web pages outside of a social networking system
Inventor: TAYLOR BRET STEVEN
IPC: G06F40/143
Filed: 2011-04-14
Abstract: A social networking system includes a mechanism for incorporating nodes in the social graph, where the nodes are associated with a web page. Each web page includes one or more tags, which contain meta-information for defining the node in the social networking system, such as the type of the node. The social networking system retrieves the tags from the markup language document and stores their information in connection with the node for the web page. The web page may be outside of the social networking system's domain and may be operated by an entity other than the social networking operator; thus, third parties can define, create, and maintain nodes that are then used by the social networking system. Users may then interact with the nodes on websites outside of the social networking system, and these interactions are tracked by and reflected back within the social networking system.

Abstract: COLOUR GRADIENTS FROM SMOOTH-PROFILE AND SHARP-PROFILE Disclosed is computer-implemented method of rendering an output image (150) which interpolates predefined constraining image values located at predetermined positions in the output image. At least one of the predefined constraining image values is smoothly interpolated. The method (a) generates an intermediate representation (130) of the output 10 image including a smooth field coefficient (p, , yi) for a smooth field associated with each of the predetermined positions; and (b) renders the output image from the intermediate representation, each output pixel value of the output image being a sum of at least a forward pixel value calculated by a forward pass scanline process (620) and a reverse pixel value calculated by a reverse pass scanline process (630). Each of the forward and reverse 15 pixel values of a current scanline are equal to a sum of a product of the smooth field coefficient and a value of the smooth field determined for each of a plurality of preceding output image positions, wherein the plurality of preceding output image positions are one of the predetermined positions preceding the current scanline. Also each of the forward and reverse pixel values of the current scanline is calculated using first values of the 20 current scanline and of preceding scanlines and using second values of preceding scanlines, where the total contribution of first values of a current scanline to forward or reverse pixel values of a succeeding scanline is constant, and where the total contribution of second values of a current scanline to forward or reverse pixel values of a succeeding scanline is proportional to the separation between the current scanline and the succeeding 25 scanline.

Title: Fastener driving apparatus
Inventor: PEDICINI CHRISTOPHER
IPC: B27F7/09
Filed: 2011-10-31
Abstract: A fastener driving apparatus includes a power source, a control circuit, a motor, a first cylinder, a first piston, a linear motion converter, a second cylinder, a second piston, an anvil, a retention element retaining a component of the apparatus, and at least one sensor. During a compression stroke, the first piston compresses gas in a first cylinder to a predetermined pressure. Compressed gas is communicated to the second cylinder and the retention force of the retention element is overcome, to release the retained component of the apparatus, thereby causing the second piston to move linearly and enabling the anvil to drive the fastener into the workpiece. During a return stroke of the first piston, a vacuum created in the first cylinder is communicated to the second cylinder, causing the second piston and the anvil to retract to their initial positions.

Title: Protein biomarkers of late stage breast cancer
Inventor: KRIZMAN DAVID B
IPC: C12Q1/37
Filed: 2011-12-29
Abstract: This patent application discloses and describes proteins found to be differentially expressed between primary tumor breast cancer cells histologicaly defined as early stage (stage 0) breast cancer and primary breast cancer cells histologicaly defined as late stage (stage 3) breast cancer. These proteins can be used either individually or in specific combinations in diagnostic and prognostic protein assays on various biological samples from breast cancer patients to indicate the that a breast cancer patient's cancer is in an early, non- aggressive stage or in a late, aggressive stage. Determination of differential expression of these proteins can also be useful for indicating additional therapies to combat the aggressiveness of late stage breast cancer. The full length intact proteins can be assayed or peptides derived from these proteins can be assayed as reporters for these proteins. These proteins can also be identified as "companion diagnostic" proteins, wherein the differentially expressed proteins that are used as diagnostic and prognostic indicators can also be used as targets for therapeutic intervention of breast cancer. Also disclosed and described herein are isotope labeled versions of peptides from the proteins.
