  • Patent number: 11115049
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods are provided for compressing data and decompressing compressed data. A method may include receiving encoded data to be decompressed, obtaining a size “Stotal” of a total number of symbols in the encoded data, numbers of occurrences for distinct symbols in the encoded data, a number L of sum of the numbers of occurrences for the distinct symbols, and a final state generated during an encoding process as a first state for decoding, building a decoding table containing the distinct symbols corresponding to L encoding states, decoding the encoded data using the decoding table including: obtaining a current symbol from the decoding table based on a current state X, dynamically determining a current number of bits to be recovered from the encoded data and a new state X, and outputting symbols recovered from the encoded data.

  • Patent number: 11115050
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods are provided for decompressing compressed data. A method may include receiving encoded data to be decompressed, obtaining a “Stotal” of a total number of symbols, numbers of occurrences for distinct symbols in the encoded data, and a final state generated during an encoding process as a first state for decoding, building a decoding table containing a row of the distinct symbols, a row of substitutes for numbers of bits to be recovered and a row of substitutes for new states corresponding to encoding states, decoding using the decoding table including: obtaining a current symbol from the decoding table based on a current state X, dynamically determining a current number of bits to be recovered from the encoded data and a new state X based on corresponding substitutes and outputting symbols recovered. L may be a sum of the numbers of occurrences for the distinct symbols.

  • Publication number: 20210047664
    Abstract: Fungal glucoamylases from Aspergillus fumigatus—expressed in Trichoderma reesei host cells (AfGATR) are provided. Trichoderma reesei host cells express AfGATRs at higher, or at least comparable, levels to natively expressed AfGA Aspergillus fumigatus. AfGATRs, including AfGA1TR and AfGA2TR, exhibit high activity at elevated temperatures and at low pH, so AfGATRs can be used efficiently in a process of saccharification in the presence of alpha-amylase, such as Aspergillus kawachii alpha-amylase (AkAA). AfGATRs advantageously catalyze starch saccharification to an oligosaccharide composition significantly enriched in DP1 (i.e., glucose) compared to the products of saccharification catalyzed by Aspergillus niger glucoamylase (AnGA) or native AfGA expressed in Aspergillus fumigatus. AfGATRs such as AfGA1TR, AfGA2TR or a variant thereof can be used at a lower dosage than AnGA and natively expressed AfGAs to produce comparable levels of glucose.

  • Publication number: 20160352178
    Abstract: An assistance device includes a main body, a first permanent magnet, a second permanent magnet, a coil, and a supporting arm. The main body can be configured to support an electronic device. The main body defines a receiving space. The first permanent magnet and the second permanent magnet are fixed in the receiving space. The second permanent magnet and the first permanent magnet cooperatively form a magnetic field. The coil is rotatably received in the receiving space. The supporting arm is fixed to the coil and rotatably coupled to the main body. The supporting arm is steady with respect to the surface when the main body is rotated with respect to the surface. The first permanent magnet and the second permanent magnet rotate with respect to the coil. The coil generates power for the electronic device at the coil goes through the magnetic field.

  • Patent number: 9240219
    Abstract: A hard disk support for holding a hard disk drive can include a frame, a bracket, and a plurality of arched ribs. The bracket is located in the frame. The plurality of arched ribs extends from the frame toward to the bracket, and the arched ribs couple the bracket to the frame. When the hard disk support is shaken at a first orientation, the arched ribs are deformed to reduce the shock to the bracket to relieve the shock to the hard disk drive. As a result, the hard disk drive can be secured on the hard disk support without shock absorbers to absorb shock.
