Abstract: A polymer composition in the form of an alloy is disclosed, having hydrophilic and anti-fogging properties. The polymer alloy can be used as a coating, as an unsupported film or as a substrate having the desired anti-fogging properties. The composition can be used where hydrophilic properties are desired. Surfaces coated with the composition described herein are more readily wetted by water or aqueous fluids, and may have a coefficient of friction of 0.10 or less when in contact with water. The preferred composition contains a water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol and a water-soluble polyvinyl pyrollidone polymer in a weight ratio of about 4:1 to about 1:10. A crosslinking agent comprised of a melamine, a mineral acid or a strong organic acid is included. The composition is preferably applied to a substrate, such as a lens, and cured to form the coating.

Date Feb. 17, 1994The present invention is concerned with a genetically modified live herpesvirus vaccine of which the live herpesviruses are not shed into the environment by a vaccinated animal. This can he achieved by deleting a gene encoding a gD homolog, such as gp50 of pseudorabies virus, and propagating this deletion mutant in a cell line expressing the gene product. The reduced shedding characteristic of such a vaccine is particularly advantageous in a vector vaccine. The present invention also concerns a quadruple mutant pseudorabies virus vaccine, and a live cell bound vaccine containing gp50 mutant pseudorabies virus and cells which do not complement the mutation.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is a retriggered oscillator timebase including a phase lock loop controlled ring for direct retriggering by a reference oscillator. The ring has taps at various successive stages that are output to an on-the-fly selector that can add any ten-bit value to a current-tap selection to enable a next-tap selection. Such on-the-fly addition can increase the period of a signal each cycle and thereby divide the reference frequency. Ring outputs are also used to drive two other retriggered rings for a plurality of NANO timing generators. The use of two rings allows retriggering of one of the rings before the other has completed a whole one-shot cycle. An on-the-fly selector subtracts a value from a present "NANO" select to a next "NANO" select to convert back the timebase to the fixed reference frequency for phase and frequency comparison. The subtraction acts as a frequency multiplication whose output "t0fx " is equal to the reference frequency.

Abstract: Computerized processing method for an image, wherein the original image is sampled in order to retain only a grid of points of reduced or much lower definition than that of the original image and corresponding to the image displayed on a monitor. The processing to be carried out is broken down into elementary operations which may be summed at any time to display the partial result on the screen. The operations are carried out only on the functions and, it is only the global function of the intermediary stage, or of the whole treatment, which is then calculated with functional interpolation for the different intermediary points of the grid used, according to the definition of the final image to be obtained, and it is only after having calculated the function thus obtained for all the intermediary points that the data corresponding to said function are calculated. The process applies in general to image processing for the production of films, particularly color films for printing.

Title: Computationally efficient adaptive bit allocation for encoding method and apparatus with allowance for decoder spectral distortions

Abstract: The invention relates in general to low bit-rate encoding and decoding of information such as audio information. More particularly, the invention relates to computationally efficient adaptive bit allocation and quantization of encoded information useful in high-quality low bit-rate coding systems. In audio applications, a digital split-band encoder splits an input signal into frequency subband signals having bandwidths commensurate with the critical bandwidths of the human auditory system, quantizes the subband signals according to values established by an allocation function, and assembles the quantized subband signals into an encoded signal. The allocation function establishes allocation values in accordance with psychoacoustic principles with allowance for decoding synthesis filter bank spectral distortions. In one embodiment, an allocation function establishes allocation values using a psychoacoustic masking threshold generated by estimating the power spectral density (PSD) of the input signal, generating an excitation pattern by applying a basilar-membrane spreading function to the PSD, adjusting the excitation pattern by an amount equal to a sensitivity function which specifies a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) sufficient to achieve psychoacoustic masking, comparing the level of the adjusted pattern to the threshold of hearing and generating the psychoacoustic masking threshold which is equal to the larger of the two. An allocation function may allow for decoder synthesis filter bank spectral distortions in any of a number of ways such as by adapting the sensitivity function.

Abstract: A method and system for the automated detection and classification of masses in mammograms. These method and system include the performance of iterative, multi-level gray level thresholding, followed by a lesion extraction and feature extraction techniques for classifying true masses from false-positive masses and malignant masses from benign masses. The method and system provide improvements in the detection of masses include multi-gray-level thresholding of the processed images to increase sensitivity and accurate region growing and feature analysis to increase specificity. Novel improvements in the classification of masses include a cumulative edge gradient orientation histogram analysis relative to the radial angle of the pixels in question; i.e., either around the margin of the mass or within or around the mass in question. The classification of the mass leads to a likelihood of malignancy.
