Abstract: The present invention provides biomatrix scaffolds, a tissue extract enriched for extracellular matrix components and bound growth factors, cytokines and hormones, and methods of making and using same.

Abstract: Techniques are generally described related to a flash-based buffer management strategy. One example method for managing a buffer for a computer system may include monitoring, by a buffer management module, a plurality of operations being executed on the computer system and utilizing a plurality of buffer pages of the buffer. The example method may also include, upon a determination that the buffer is full, identifying a specific buffer page from the plurality of buffer pages for eviction, wherein the specific buffer page is selected based on a page state of the specific buffer page and a page hotness prediction for the specific buffer page. The example method may further include evicting the specific buffer page from the buffer.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described herein for extracting a representative motion flow from a video. Technologies are also generally described herein for retrieving a video utilizing the representative motion flow. The representative motion flow may be extracted utilizing a sliding window approach to generate interesting motion flows. The representative motion flow may be generated based on the interesting motion flows.

Abstract: This invention relates to a T-type three-level inverter circuit. The circuit includes an absorption unit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multipotent stem cell, multipotent cell populations, and an enriched multipotent cell population, each found in fetal, neonatal, pediatric, and adult biliary tree tissue and up to 72 hours post mortem (although preferentially, within 10 hours post mortem) and capable of maturing into multiple endodermal tissues that include liver, biliary and pancreatic tissues. The multipotent stem/progenitor cell and cell populations are found in peribiliary glands, and progenitors descending from them are present throughout the biliary tree including in the gallbladder. High numbers of the peribiliary glands are found in the branching locations of the biliary tree such as hilum, common hepatic duct, cystic duct, common duct, common hepato-pancreatic duct and gallbladder. Related multipotent cells, multipotent cell populations and their descendent progenitors are found throughout the biliary tree including in the gall bladder, which does not have peribiliary glands.

Abstract: The invention discloses an antenna, which comprises a reference ground, a first radiation branch and a second radiation branch. The reference ground comprises a first grounding point and a second grounding point; the first radiation branch is connected to the reference ground via the first grounding point; the second radiation branch is connected to the reference ground via the second grounding point; wherein a slot is formed between the first radiation branch and the second radiation branch, and a distributed capacitance for coupling a signal is formed by coupling the first radiation branch and the second radiation branch via the slot; a connecting point is a feeding point via which one end of the second radiation branch for coupling the signal is connected to a radio frequency (RF) feed line, the feeding point arranged between the first grounding point and the second grounding point.
