| 20090280558 | Process For Dynamic Kinetic Resolution (DKR) Of Racemic Compounds In (Hydro) Fluorocarbon Solvents - A process for preparing a third compound stereo-selectively which process comprises reacting a substrate comprising a first enantiomeric compound with a racemisation catalyst to give a second enantiomeric compound, and concurrently reacting the second enantiomeric compound in the presence of a biological catalyst to give the third compound, wherein the process is performed in a solvent comprising at least one (hydro) fluorocarbon. The biological catalyst is preferably an enzyme. The substrate preferably comprises a racemate of the first and second enantiomeric compounds. The second enantiomeric compound may be reacted with a reagent, such as acyl donor, to form the third compound in the presence of the biological catalyst. | 11-12-2009 |

| 20110282819 | DATA ANALYSIS METHOD AND SYSTEM - The present invention relates to the analysis of data to identify relationships between the input data and one or more conditions. One method of analysing such data is by the use of neural networks which are non-linear statistical data modelling tools, the structure of which may be changed based on information that is passed through the network during a training phase. A known problem that affects neural networks is the issue of overtraining which arises in overcomplex or overspecified systems when the capacity of the network significantly exceeds the needed parameters. The present invention provides a method of analysing data using a neural network with a constrained architecture that mitigates the problems associated with the prior art. | 11-17-2011 |
