Abstract: Compounds of Formula (I), their preparation and use in preventing or treating bacterial infections are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods of producing an output image with enhanced contrast are disclosed. A first set of methods is adaptive and region-based and comprises dividing a digital input image comprised of input image luma pixels into a plurality of blocks, and for each of the blocks, applying certain statistical analyses and computations to produce output image pixel data, communicating the output image pixel data to an image display device, and displaying the output image. A second set of methods is adaptive and uses human vision basis functions. A device for producing an output image with enhanced contrast is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for sharpening of an image. The method combines edge sharpening and noise reduction on image and video data to eliminated artifacts, thereby creating natural looking output images and video without increased noise. The algorithm uses one dimensional look-up tables not requiring complex spatial frequency processing of input image and video data. The look-up tables reduce differences for small input differences which are likely noise, increase differences for mid-level input differences to increase edge slope and sharpness, and maintain high-level input differences to maintain sharp edges without noise increase on those edges that are already sharp. A device for sharpening an image is also disclosed, comprising of a processor in communication with a non-transitory computer readable medium storing the sharpening algorithm communicable to and executable by the processor.

Abstract: Various methods and apparatus are disclosed that relate to one or more aspects of a filter structure that may remove contaminants from a stream of fluid. In various aspects the filter structure includes a front portion having a first orientation and a rear portion having a second orientation unique from the first orientation.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe security context enforcement in a multi-tenant environment. Security context data may be transmitted through an un-secure multi-tenant computational environment. The security context data is secured by protection layers that restrict untrusted resources from running tenant applications and restrict the ability of unauthorized tenants to access context information associated with a tenant. Data may be received and evaluated at a component of a multi-tenant environment. If the component is a trusted component and the security context data indicates that the tenant is authorized to execute an application using a specified context, the component may run a tenant application in a context associated with the security context data.

Abstract: A system for reducing fuel slosh noise in a storage tank is described. In one particular example, the system comprises a slatted baffle with angularly arranged louvers extending therefrom to reduce sloshing noise in the tank by redirecting fuel waves while preventing surface wave collisions in the tank. In this way, the louvered baffle has the ability to provide different fuel flows based on the direction of flow incident on the slatted baffle, which may enhance the driving experience, particularly in hybrid and start-stop vehicles, where periods exist in the drive cycle where background engine noise is absent.
