International Classification:

H01L 3502

US Classification:

136230, 136213, 136201, 136224, 136232, 136240, 136241, 257467, 438 54, 438 55

Abstract:

A radiation sensor which includes a thermopile for detecting radiant energy. The thermopile and a support rim for the thermopile are fabricated as an integrated unit to form a support chip. The support chip is mated to a mating chip so that the thermopile is positioned in an inner cavity region of the radiation sensor. The sensor has a window which permits the transmission of radiant energy into the enclosure such that the radiant energy impinges upon a central absorber region of the thermopile.

Abstract:

The present invention relates to non-steroidal ligands for use in nuclear receptor-based inducible gene expression system, and a method to modulate exogenous gene expression in which an ecdysone receptor complex comprising: a DNA binding domain; a ligand binding domain; a transactivation domain; and a ligand is contacted with a DNA construct comprising: the exogenous gene and a response element; wherein the exogenous gene is under the control of the response element and binding of the DNA binding domain to the response element in the presence of the ligand results in activation or suppression of the gene.

US Classification:

711162, 711161, 714 5, 714 6

Abstract:

A system, a method, and a computer program product for providing continuous data protection and long-term data protection of data in a storage system. A persistent point-in-time Image (PPI) image of the data is created and stored at a first storage. The data at the first storage is updated frequently to provide continuous data protection. A copy of the dataset is created and stored in a secondary storage. The copy of the dataset stored in a secondary storage is updated and backed up less frequently than the PPIs image of data stored at the first storage to ensure long-term data protection.

International Classification:

G06K 9/62

US Classification:

382224, 382159

Abstract:

An “active learning” method trains a compact classifier for view-based object recognition. The method actively generates its own training data. Specifically, the generation of synthetic training images is controlled within an iterative training process. Valuable and/or informative object views are found in a low-dimensional rendering space and then added iteratively to the training set. In each iteration, new views are generated. A sparse training set is iteratively generated by searching for local minima of a classifier's output in a low-dimensional space of rendering parameters. An initial training set is generated. The classifier is trained using the training set. Local minima are found of the classifier's output in the low-dimensional rendering space. Images are rendered at the local minima. The newly-rendered images are added to the training set.
