Abstract: A method for detecting linear fixed pattern noise (FPN) comprises extracting a plurality of pixel values from a first row of the ROI, calculating a brightness value of the first row based on the extracted pixel values, calculating a first score indicating the variance of the pixel values of the first row, calculating a second score indicating a difference between the pixel value average of the first row and the pixel value average of the adjacent row to the first row, and determining whether the fixed pattern noise is present in the first row based on the first score and the first threshold and the second score and the second threshold.

Abstract: A memory includes a memory array chip and a logic circuit chip that are bonded. Each memory array tile corresponds to at least one row decoder, one sub-decoder, and at least one sub-wordline driver. Each row decoder provides a first quantity of main decoding signal lines. The sub-decoder provides a second quantity of sub-decoding signal lines. A product of a total quantity of main decoding signals from all row decoders corresponding to a single memory array tile and the second quantity is the same as a quantity of word lines of the single memory array tile. Each of the at least one sub-wordline driver is configured to drive a word line of the corresponding memory array tile based on the main decoding signal and the sub-decoding signal.

Abstract: Provided is a self-acting door security device including a latch bolt of a locking module installed on a swinging door and engaging with a latch hole of a striker mounted on a door frame to enable the locking/unlocking the swinging door. The self-acting door security device can be easily installed in a gap between a door and a door frame to quickly detect forced opening of the door by an intruder, thereby securing personal safety. The self-acting door security device has an improved structure such that the door can be opened without interference from a latch bolt even in a malfunction condition that the latch bolt of an existing lock module installed on the door is not fully inserted, thereby enabling quick evacuation in emergency situations including fires. The self-acting door security device includes an insert plate, a locker plate, a fastening piece, a stop holder, and a stopper member.

Abstract: Aspects herein include minimizing hot spots on a filter chip by creating thermal radiators using mechano-acoustic structures and connection circuitry. A gradual increase of metal to wafer relation provides better heat dissipation and heat sinking. Shunt lines of a ladder type arrangement of SAW resonators comprise a broadened section. Resonators that are subsequent to each other in the series signal line are connected via a common busbar extending over a length of subsequent series resonators. A lateral extension of the common busbars represents a first section of a respective shunt line. A first shunt line section between a node and the parallel resonator of a shunt line comprises a section that is broader than the common busbar, the broadened section extending over the width of the parallel resonator. The first reflector of the parallel resonator that faces the laterally adjacent series resonator is formed from the broadened section.

Abstract: Fusion polypeptides with modified multimerization domains that provide high expression, solubility, stability, and low immunogenicity to the fusion polypeptides have been developed. TRAIL compositions with the modified multimerization domains show improved physico-chemical and biological properties relative to TRAIL compositions with unmodified multimerization domains. The TRAIL compositions also have lower immunogenicity in the mammalian host when compared to that of TRAIL compositions with unmodified multimerization domains. The TRAIL compositions induce apoptosis of cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts in vivo, reducing tumor size.
