Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a first semiconductor structure and a second semiconductor structure. The method of bonding a semiconductor structure includes performing a surface treatment on a first surface of the first semiconductor structure and a second surface of the second semiconductor structure based on a first gas and a second gas. The first gas excites at least one of the first surface or the second surface to generate a free radical. The second gas is excited to generate a plasma gas. A free negative ion in the plasma gas is combined with the free radical. The method also includes performing a face-to-face bonding on the first surface and the second surface.

Abstract: Compounds having formula (I), and enantiomers, and diastereomers, stereoisomers, pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof, are useful as kinase modulators, including RIPK1 modulation. All the variables are as defined herein.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for restoring an image captured through an extended depth-of-field lens. Preprocessed data relating to image degradation is stored and used during an image restoration process.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing optical simulations using parallel computations. In some embodiments, the optical simulations can be performed on a computer system using raw image data provided by a camera. The computer system may include a central processing unit (CPU) and a graphics processing unit (GPU), where the GPU may be configured for the parallel computations. The CPU can build a lookup table of lens characterization data, such as point spread function (PSF) data. Using the lookup table, the GPU can perform the optical simulations. For example, the GPU can compute a plurality of convolutions in parallel, each using PSF data and a window of pixels. The result of each convolution may produce a pixel value that approximates the effect of the lens on that pixel.
