  • Publication number: 20110276577
    Abstract: A system and method for generating feature vectors of documents in different languages are provided. The feature vectors provide scores associated with keywords defined in a base language for use by a profiler for generating or updating a user profile. The system and method use a plurality of keyword sets comprising: a base language keyword set comprising a plurality of base language keywords each associated with a respective identifier (ID); and a second language keyword set comprising a plurality of second language keywords each corresponding in meaning to a respective one of the base language keywords and associated with the ID of the corresponding base language keyword. One of a plurality of tokenizers is selected to parse a document based on the language of the document and to generate the feature vector using the keyword set of the corresponding language.

  • Publication number: 20110231256
    Abstract: A method for generating a behavioral model for a targeted advertisement category (TAC), including: obtaining click stream data including ad-clicks and events preceding the ad-clicks and performed on web pages; assigning features having categories and keywords associated with the web pages to the events; identifying an ad-click of the ad-clicks and a subset of the events preceding the ad-click that result in the ad-click, where the subset of the events is associated with at least one feature; generating an aggregated event sequence by aggregating the ad-click and the subset of the events; selecting, in response to the at least one feature being associated with the TAC, a training data set including at least the aggregated event sequence; generating the behavioral model for the TAC by applying a learning algorithm to a portion of the training data set; and evaluating performance of built models and select model based on performance result.

  • Publication number: 20110207895
    Abstract: A polyurethane adhesive which is useful in bonding porous and non-porous surfaces is provided. The adhesive is especially useful in bonding windshield glass into automotive frames under a variety of environmental conditions, particularly in after market windshield replacement applications. The polyurethane includes at least one urethane prepolymer which is based on at least one thermoplastic polyol. In one embodiment, the urethane prepolymer may be formed from one or more polyisocyanates, one or more polyetherpolyols and one or more thermoplastic polyesterpolyols, wherein the prepolymer has a free isocyanate content of from about 0.6 to about 3.5% by weight, based on the weight of the polyurethane. In another embodiment, a one-part adhesive composition is provided which includes an isocyanate-functional and thermoplastic polyurethane prepolymer having a free isocyanate content of from about 0.6 to about 3.

  • Publication number: 20110193549
    Abstract: An amplifier circuit is used in a multimeter to amplify signals applied between a pair of test terminals. A voltage applied to one of the test terminals is amplified by a first operational amplifier configured as a voltage follower. An output of the first operational amplifier is applied to an inverting input of a second operational amplifier configured as an integrator. An output of the second operational amplifier is connected to the other of the test terminals. A voltage generated at the output of the second operational amplifier provides an indication of the magnitude and polarity of the voltage applied to the first and second test terminals.

  • Publication number: 20090152876
    Abstract: A latching device, which includes a lock frame mechanism fitted to a door and a corresponding latching mechanism fitted to a door frame. The lock frame mechanism is fixed to the inner side of the door, and is provided with a long locking arm able to horizontally swing, and the latching mechanism is provided with an extensible latch. When the latching device forms an unlatched state, the latch retracts to the side of the latching mechanism side, thereby achieving the effectiveness of preventing people from getting caught on a latch button when passing in and out and further giving an integrated aesthetic appearance to the door assembly.

  • Patent number: 7087283
    Abstract: An optical storage medium having a three-dimensional data pattern, and fabrication method thereof. The optical storage medium includes a substrate and a plurality of recording layers, each constituting a fluorescent oligomer. Due to the high quantum yield and high stock shift of the fluorescent oligomer, the recording layers emit intensive fluorescent signals when the optical storage medium is illuminated with reading beams. Accordingly, the recording sensitivity and the readout characteristics of optical storage mediums are improved without additional signal-amplifying structures or materials.
