20090248004SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF SOFT TISSUE - Methods and systems for treatment of tissue (e.g., the dermal-hypodermal region) with one or more wavelength are disclosed. Electromagnetic radiation devices and methods for lypolysis and/or coagulation of blood and/or treatment of water and/or treatment of skin are disclosed.10-01-2009
20100036295METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FRACTIONAL DEFORMATION AND TREATMENT OF CUTANEOUS AND SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE - Devices and methods of treatment of tissue, such as skin tissue and subcutaneous tissue, with thermal control elements are disclosed. Some disclosed devices and methods employ local deformation of tissue in small areas. Devices and methods employing local deformation are used to produce fractional thermal treatments. Some devices and methods are external to a subject's skin others are beneath the subject's skin in the subcutaneous tissue.02-11-2010
20100298744SYSTEM AND METHOD OF TREATING TISSUE WITH ULTRASOUND ENERGY - Disclosed herein are method(s) and device(s) capable of generating a small lesion as deep as a few millimeters beneath the skin's surface and several cubic millimeters in volume in orders of magnitude less time, namely, tens of milliseconds. More specifically, in one exemplary embodiment, a method of treating tissue (e.g., skin) is provided which includes generating one or more ultrasound pulses with each pulse having a pulse width shorter than a thermal relaxation time of a tissue treatment volume, and applying one or more of said ultrasound pulses to at least one portion of the tissue treatment volume to generate one or more treatment areas in a region. Methods of treating tissue can include effecting a therapeutic treatment in said region of the tissue, and/or effecting a cosmetic treatment in said target region.11-25-2010
20110046523METHOD FOR IMPROVEMENT OF CELLULITE APPEARANCE - A method and apparatus are provided for treating connective tissue. The method and apparatus includes elongating connective tissue including septa and/or fascia to achieve a lasting improvement (e.g., a long term, durable and/or substantially irreversible treatment of the connective tissue) to improve the appearance of cellulite.02-24-2011
20110184334PHOTOTREATMENT DEVICE FOR USE WITH COOLANTS AND TOPICAL SUBSTANCES - Methods and systems are disclosed for phototreatment in which replaceable containers comprising one or more adjuvant (consumable or re-usable) substances are employed. The adjuvant substance can be, for example, a topical substance or a coolant. Systems are disclosed for using a topical substance to detect contact of a phototreatment device with a tissue, detect speed of a phototreatment device over the tissue, detect regions of tissue that have been treated by a phototreatment device and/or to provide other benefits to the tissue such as improved skin tone and texture, tanning, etc. Safety systems are also disclosed that ensure that a proper consumable substance and/or container is connected to a phototreatment device and/or directed to a proper target. Additionally, cooling systems and methods that utilize phase change materials for extracting heat from a light generating device are disclosed.07-28-2011

20120040668SYSTEM AND METHOD TO OBTAIN SIGNAL ACQUISITION ASSISTANCE DATA - Signal acquisition assistance data is obtained for receiving devices such as wireless position assisted location devices seeking signals from any source, such as satellite vehicles and base stations. The data may be obtained from previously acquired data, based upon evaluation of changes in parameters such as time and location that may jeopardize validity. In some cases the data may be adjusted for the changes in parameters. Refined data may be calculated by a receiver using partial measurements of signal sets, particularly if the acquisition assistance data provided by a remote entity includes more distinct parameters than have typically been provided. New data need not be obtained until the validity of previous data expires due to limitations upon temporal extrapolation using Doppler coefficients, unless mobile station movement that cannot be compensated is detected, and jeopardizes validity of the previous data.02-16-2012

20080300857METHOD FOR ALIGNING SENTENCES AT THE WORD LEVEL ENFORCING SELECTIVE CONTIGUITY CONSTRAINTS - An alignment method includes, for a source sentence in a source language, identifying whether the sentence includes at least one candidate term comprising a contiguous subsequence of words of the source sentence. A target sentence in a target language is aligned with the source sentence. This includes developing a probabilistic model which models conditional probability distributions for alignments between words of the source sentence and words of the target sentence and generating an optimal alignment based on the probabilistic model, including, where the source sentence includes the at least one candidate term, enforcing a contiguity constraint which requires that all the words of the target sentence which are aligned with an identified candidate term form a contiguous subsequence of the target sentence.12-04-2008
