Abstract: A database of visual images includes metadata having, for a particular image, at least one entry specifying: a part of that image, another stored image, and a measure Sabi of the degree of similarity between that specified part and the specified other image. One or more images are displayed and input is received from a user (for examples, by using a gaze tracker) indicative of part of the displayed images. Measures of interest are determined for each of a plurality of non-displayed stored images specified by the metadata for the displayed image(s), as a function of the similarity measure(s) and the relationship between the user input and the part specified. On the basis of these measures, a selection is made from those non-displayed stored images of further images for display.

Abstract: The invention relates to coated peroxygen compounds, in particular coated sodium percarbonate particles, with a delayed release of the active oxygen (=increased dissolving time). Particles according to the invention comprise an innermost shell layer, comprising at least one hydrate-forming inorganic salt, and an outer shell layer, comprising 0.2 to 3 wt. % alkali metal silicate with a modulus of greater than 2.5, in particular 3 to 5, the outer layer having been prepared using an alkali metal silicate solution with an alkali metal silicate concentration in the range from 2 to 20 wt. %. By lowering the alkali metal silicate concentration in the solution to be used, the dissolving time can be increased for the same shell amount. The dissolving time can be increased greatly by the layer sequence and the concentration of the solution, at a low amount of alkali metal silicate.

Abstract: Chemical analysis of impurities in buffer gas is provided at various pressures up to atmospheric. Identification of the impurities is carried out by analyzing energy of electrons releases via ionization of the impurity atoms or molecules in their collisions either with excited atoms of buffer gas or with monochromatic photons. To produce excited metastable atoms a pulsed plasma is ignited between plane anode and cathode, and electrons energy is measured in afterglow by determining second derivative of electric current in dependence of voltage applied between these electrodes. Another way, electrons energy can be analyzed by positioning a grid between anode and cathode and by using an external radiation source to ionize the impurities in equipotential space between the grid and the anode. Inter-electrode gap and gas pressure must be chosen so that distortions in the electrons energy distribution due to collisions with buffer gas should not exceed a prescribed value.

Abstract: An intraoperative neural monitoring system includes a power source and a simulator powered by the power source to deliver a cycle of electrical stimulation to a patient as a first group of positive or negative phase pulses automatically followed by a second group of pulses of opposite phase or polarity to the pulses of the first group. An activation performed to initiate delivery of the first group of pulses is effective to deliver the entire cycle of stimulation. A method of intraoperative neural monitoring involves activating a simulator to deliver a biphasic cycle of electrical stimulation to a patient during an operative procedure, delivering the entire cycle of electrical stimulation to the patient in response to the activating step and detecting EMG activity in the patient.

Abstract: A seal on a movable top or bottom plate for use in a chromatography column. The plate is formed of a flow distributor connected to one or more movement rods that control the movement of the top plate within a chromatography column. The plate is formed of two pieces, a flow distributor and a seal plate. The seal plate is mounted on top of the flow distributor and has a seal that is essentially co-terminal with the outer edge of the flow distributor. The seal plate is attached to the flow distributor by one or more pins or threaded bolts and forms a space between them. The one or more pins contain one or more compression means for biasing the seal plate against the flow distributor. An opening is formed in the seal plate for the selective introduction of a pressurized energy source such as compressed air, gas or hydraulic fluid into the space to overcome the compression means. One or more seals are arranged between the seal plate and distributor to maintain the pressurized energy source between the two of them. Optionally the space may contain a closed bladder or reservoir connected to the opening to contain the pressurized energy source.
