| 20090002224 | SAR ATR tree line extended operating condition - A synthetic aperture radar acquires an image of one or more objects and identifies them as targets. The objects are located in the proximity of clutter within the image such of trees, or a tree line. The radar acquires a SAR image having pixels descriptive of the clutter and the object(s). Regions having object pixels are identified within the synthetic aperture image using an object identification (algorithm), where the object identification (algorithm) utilizes one or more historically known target characteristics and one or more measured characteristic to obtain an output. Boundaries are identified for the one or more objects within the output using an object isolation, such as, for example, a Watershed transform. Clutter pixels are identified external to the one or more objects. The clutter pixels are suppressed from the synthetic aperture image thereby generating a clutter reduced image containing the one or more objects. The objects are compared with known images of a probable target until a match is found, the match representing the target identification. | 01-01-2009 |

| 20090316953 | Adaptive match metric selection for automatic target recognition - An automatic target recognition system with adaptive metric selection. The novel system includes an adaptive metric selector for selecting a match metric based on the presence or absence of a particular feature in an image and a matcher for identifying a target in the image using the selected match metric. In an illustrative embodiment, the adaptive metric selector is designed to detect a shadow in the image and select a first metric if a shadow is detected and not cut off, and select a second metric otherwise. The system may also include an automatic target cuer for detecting targets in a full-scene image and outputting one or more target chips, each chip containing one target. The adaptive metric selector adaptively selects the match metric for each chip separately, and may also adaptively select an appropriate chip size such that a shadow in the chip is not unnecessarily cut off. | 12-24-2009 |

| 20090054976 | STENT LOADING TOOL AND METHOD FOR USE THEREOF - A loading tool for withdrawing, crimping, and loading a stent-mounted valve into a delivery catheter, and for pushing the stent-mounted valve from the delivery catheter into a native heart valve orifice. The loading tool comprises at least one connector adapted for being removably connected to the stent of the stent-mounted valve. A crimping tool having a generally converging shape is adapted for use with the loading tool. Following connection of the loading tool to the stent-mounted valve, the loading tool operates to allow the stent-mounted valve to be drawn through the crimping tool, and loaded, in a crimped state, into a delivery catheter. Also disclosed is a kit of the of the various components for effecting the delivery of the stent-mounted valve and a method for withdrawing, crimping, and loading a stent-mounted valve from a storage container into a delivery catheter for the performance of a transcatheter valve implantation procedure. | 02-26-2009 |

| 20090240725 | Persistent Object Linkage Using Ghosting - A system that persistently maintains and exposes one or more previous object hierarchies to which an object belonged across one or more hierarchy destroying operations, such as operations that delete parent objects, add parent objects subsequent to addition of their descendent objects, forward objects to or from the hierarchy, and/or modify hierarchy determining rules. A user interface object allows user access to one or more persistent hierarchies for the corresponding object. A hierarchy list or the like allows a user to select a desired one of the persistent hierarchies. A persistent hierarchy can be accessed in the disclosed system through a display object associated with any object within the hierarchy, including the root, leaves, and any intervening objects. When objects are deleted, “ghost” objects are maintained and displayed to the user in the hierarchical positions of the deleted objects when a persistent hierarchy is displayed. | 09-24-2009 |

| 20100146425 | DRAG AND DROP TARGET INDICATION IN A GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE - The invention provides a method, system, and program product for indicating a drag and drop target in a graphical user interface. In one embodiment, the invention includes indicating at least one target within the GUI onto which a selected object may be dropped, changing the indication of the at least one target based upon the selected object being dragged within the GUI, and providing an indication of a result of dropping the selected object on the at least one target, wherein indicating is aggregated for a plurality of targets and changing the indication includes deaggregating the indication. | 06-10-2010 |

| 20100276620 | DOUBLE PISTON TRUNNION MOUNTED BALL VALVES AND METHODS OF USE - Disclosed are a method and a ball valve structure which provide for an improved seal in a trunnion mounted, double piston ball valve, which is especially useful in applications requiring a seal against high pressures, such as in the oil, gas and chemical process industries. Higher pressures on an inlet side of the valve are used, while the valve moves toward and is maintained in a valve closed position, to create movement of a ball element of the valve so as to bias the ball element against both piston seat elements (or rings) used to create the seals. This movement of the ball element thereby effectively uses such upstream pressure to create and enhance a seal between the ball element and both piston seat elements while in the valve closed position. | 11-04-2010 |

| 20100005021 | Method and system for buying and selling certified emission reduction credits - Distributing units of carbon emission reduction (“CER”) comprises obtaining a right to purchase CERs in the future that are developed by emission reduction projects, dividing the future CERs into a plurality of tranches, committing the future CERs in the tranches to prospective buyers, and distributing CERs received from the projects to the prospective buyers based on a priority of delivery between the tranches. A contingent call option can provide replacement CERs to meet CER obligations to a senior tranche if received CERs are not sufficient to meet the obligations of future CERs allocated to buyers in the senior tranche. CERs are not distributed to buyers of junior tranches if the received CERs are not sufficient to meet the CER obligations to more senior tranches. | 01-07-2010 |

| 20110151448 | Methods and Systems for High Homologous Recombination ("HR") Targeting Efficiency - Disclosed are vectors, kits and methods useful in the construction of recombinant cells and DNAs via enhanced efficiency homologous recombination. The vectors are targeting vectors that contain a gene-of-interest spliced between two ends that are homologous to a genome target site. The ends of the vector may be protected from exonuclease attack by deploying a cap, such as a hair pin structure. The vector is linked to a nuclear localization signal sequence, and preferably, a bait peptide that binds to RAD51, to facilitate homologous recombination. The vector may be deployed in myriad genetic transformation applications, such as site-directed mutagenesis, gene therapy, and the like. | 06-23-2011 |
