Abstract: Software translation quality and efficiency are improved by providing user interface (UI) context for translators. Unicode symbols are used to uniquely tag user-visible strings from the source code and into resource files. Those strings include titles, product names, error messages, strings in images and any other text that may be present on the user interface. Once the ‘pseudo’ resource files are integrated into a build, automation is run to gather screenshots of the application. Image recognition is then used to link screenshots of the UI in which a resource file string appears, such that screenshots will be brought forward and displayed to the translator when working on translating the user-visible strings of the software being localized.

Abstract: A method of sparse digital cancellation of receiver nonlinear distortion in carrier aggregation systems is proposed. A reference signal generator generates possible candidate reference signals to be included in a dictionary matrix D. A sparsity-based solution is then applied to dynamically select reference signals based on the RF transceiver configuration. Based on the auto-correlation and cross-correlation with an observed radio signal, a subset of reference signals is selected from the dictionary matrix to match the distortion signal. The number of selected reference signals is flexibly determined based on the design constraints on complexity and power consumption. A greedy sparse estimation approaches, e.g., Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP) can be used for reference signal selection. The reference signal selection is dynamic and adapts itself for different channel responses through correlating the observed radio signal with the dictionary reference signals.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, method and program product for performing code conversions. In one embodiment the method includes determining size of encoding space for a source file and a target file upon receipt of a code conversion request and generating a main conversion file upon determination that a target encoding space associated with said target file is smaller than a source encoding space associated with the source file. Subsequently an extension converted file is generated from the source file according to a pre-established mapping table of code conversion stored in a memory. The code conversion request is completed by using the main conversion file and said extension file together so that the source file does not need to be truncated in order to fit into the target conversion space.

Abstract: A method of determining priority rules for periodic CSI reporting in carrier aggregation is proposed. A UE obtains channel state information (CSI) feedback for multiple downlink component carriers (CCs) in a multi-carrier wireless communication network. Each downlink CC is associated with a feedback mode, and each feedback mode comprises a set of feedback types to be reported to a base station at time slots configured by an upper layer. The UE then determines a prioritized downlink CC for CSI reporting based on priority levels of the feedback types to be transmitted for each downlink CC at a given time slot. The UE then transmits the corresponding CSI feedback for the prioritized downlink CC at the given time slot via a feedback channel over a primary uplink CC. In one embodiment, different feedback types are prioritized by groups, and each group has several feedback types sharing the same priority.

Abstract: A precursor used for labeling hepatocyte receptors and applied to radiotracers for imaging or pharmaceutical compositions for liver cancers is revealed. The precursor is a bifunctional compound. The bifunctional group includes a trisaccharide structure and a diamide dimercaptide (N2S2) ligand. The trisaccharide has high affinity to asialoglycoprotein receptors (ASGPR) on surfaces of hepatocytes while N2S2 ligand reacts with radioisotopes to form neutral complexes. Thus the precursor stays on surfaces of hepatocytes to provide radioisotope labeling or treatment effect of liver cancers.
