20090019602 | MASTER ACTIVATORS OF PATHOGEN RESPONSIVE GENES - Disclosed is a complete plant MAP kinase cascade (e.g., MEKK1, MKK4/MKK5, and MPK3/MPK6) and WRKY22/WRKY29 transcription factors that function downstream of the flagellin receptor FLS2, a leucine-rich-repeat (LRR) receptor kinase. Activation of such a MAPK cascade confers resistance to both bacterial and fungal pathogens. Also disclosed are disease-resistant plants expressing one or more members of this MAP kinase signaling cascade. Such members include constitutively active MEKK1 (ΔMEKK1), MKK4 (MKK4a), and MKK5 (MKK5a) or wild-type WRKY29. | 01-15-2009 |

20130307848 | TECHNIQUES FOR PROCESSING RECONSTRUCTED THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE DATA - Techniques are disclosed for creating digital assets that can be used to personalize themed products. For example, a workflow and pipeline used to generate a 3D model from digital images of a person's face and to manufacture a personalized, physical figurine customized with the 3D model are disclosed. The 3D model of the person's face may be simplified to match a topology of a desired figurine. While the topology is deformed to match that of the figurine, the 3D model retains the geometry of the child's face. Simplifying the topology of the 3D model in this manner allows the mesh to be integrated with or attached to a mesh representing desired figurine. | 11-21-2013 |
20150078661 | HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE AND TONE MAPPING IMAGING TECHNIQUES - Algorithms for improving the performance of conventional tone mapping operators (TMO) by calculating both a contrast waste score and a contrast loss score for a first tone-mapped image produced by the TMO. The two contrast scores can be used to optimize the performance of the TMO by reducing noise and improving contrast. Algorithms for generating an HDR image by converting non-linear color space images into linear color space format, aligning the images to a reference, de-ghosting the aligned images if necessary, and merging the aligned (and potentially de-ghosted) images to create an HDR image. The merging can be performed with exposure fusion, HDR reconstruction, or other suitable techniques. | 03-19-2015 |

20090263278 | Stabilization of poly(oxyalkylene) containing polymeric materials - The present invention provides a method for producing a medical device, preferably an ophthalmic device, more preferably a contact lens, made of a stabilized poly(oxyalkylene)-containing polymeric material. The method of the invention comprises the steps of: curing, in a mold, a composition comprising (a) a prepolymer having at least one poly(oxyalkylene) unit, (b) a biocompatible organic multi-acid or biocompatible salt thereof in an amount sufficient to improve the stability of the poly(oxyalkylene)-containing polymer made from the composition, (c) optionally a photoinitiator or a thermal initiator, and (d) optionally one or more vinylic monomers, to form the medical device being less susceptible to oxidative degradation; and removing the medical device from the mold. | 10-22-2009 |

20110230588 | METHOD FOR MAKING CONTACT LENSES - The instant invention pertains to a method and a fluid composition for producing contact lenses with relatively high edge quality and with relatively high precision and fidelity in reproducing a desired lens design. The method of the invention involves: a mold which has a first mold half with a first molding surface and a second mold half with a second molding surface, wherein the first and second mold halves are configured to receive each other such that the cavity is formed between the first and second molding surfaces which define the opposite two surfaces of a contact lens to be produced; a spatial limitation of actinic radiation to define the edge of the contact lens to be produced; and addition of a radical scavenger in a fluid composition comprising a lens-forming material to reduce substantially the crosslinking/polymerizing, caused by diffused, scattered and/or reflected incident actinic radiation, of the fluid composition outside of and around the spatial limitation of actinic radiation. | 09-22-2011 |
