Abstract: A multimodal and real-time method for filtering sensitive content, receiving as input a digital video stream, the method including segmenting digital video into video fragments along the video timeline; extracting features containing significant information from the digital video input on sensitive media; reducing the semantic difference between each of the low-level video features, and the high-level sensitive concept; classifying the video fragments, generating a high-level label (positive or negative), with a confidence score for each fragment representation; performing high-level fusion to properly match the possible high-level labels and confidence scores for each fragment; and predicting the sensitive time by combining the labels of the fragments along the video timeline, indicating the moments when the content becomes sensitive.

Abstract: Provided is a method for diagnosing and/or staging COPD based on detection of one or more histone proteins. In some embodiments, the histone protein is an H3.3 protein comprising a post-translational modification. In some embodiments, the histone protein is H2B, H3, H3.3 or H4. Kits for practicing the methods of diagnosis and/or staging are provided as well. Further provided is a method for treating COPD.

Abstract: The invention provides an isolated nucleic acid having a sequence encoding a spermidine/spermine acetyltransferase (“SSAT”), wherein translation of an mRNA comprising the encoded SSAT has increased basal translation and increased stimulated translation, compared to a wild-type mRNA encoding SSAT. Methods of use for the nucleic acid are also provided. Methods and compositions are also provided for reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in organs or tissue for transplantation.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for reducing duplicate information. Diagnostic data associated with a new incident that has occurred is received and at least one new incident dump file is created for the new incident that includes some or all of the diagnostic data. The diagnostic data in the at least one new incident dump file is compared to diagnostic data in at least one corresponding preceding incident dump file. Responsive to the at least one new incident dump file comprising diagnostic data that is different from the at least one corresponding preceding incident dump file, at least one comparison dump file is generated that comprises only the differences in the at least one new incident dump file that are not contained in the at least one corresponding preceding incident dump file. A report package that includes the at least one comparison dump file is then transmitted to a support system.

Abstract: A wing, particularly an airfoil of an aircraft, having a changeable profile, which extends in the wing depth direction (5) running essentially in the flow direction and transversely thereto in the wing span direction and has a first planking (55a) and a second planking (55b), and having a flexible area (11), through which the profile of the wing (1) is adjustable, is described.
