Publication number: 20130017974Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for detecting genomic DNA gain and loss. Embodiments of inventive compositions and methods include composite nucleic acid probes which specifically hybridize to two or more genomic loci in a genomic region of a reference genome for detection of genomic gain and/or loss in a subject genome. In some embodiments, a substrate-attached composite nucleic acid probe is provided which includes a mixture of separate populations of beads having attached DNA probes wherein all of the beads are identically encoded and wherein each individual bead has exclusively DNA derived from one source, such as a particular large insert vector containing chromosomal DNA, or amplicons generated by amplification of DNA derived from a large insert vector containing chromosomal DNA.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2012Publication date: January 17, 2013Applicant: PerkinElmer Health Sciences, Inc.Inventors: Randall Walker, Karl Edwin Adler

Publication number: 20060129922Abstract: A text enhancement method and apparatus for the presentation of text for improved human reading. The method includes extracting text specific attributes from machine readable text and varying the text presentation in accordance with the attributes. The preferred embodiment of the method: extracts parts of speech and punctuation from a sentence, applies folding rules which use the parts of speech to determine folding points, and presents text segments each on a new line and having a determined horizontal displacement based on the text specific attributes. One method displays text over bent curves having a shape based on text content. Another method includes displaying relative text position within a hierarchy using alternating vertically and horizontally tiled planes. Another method supports reading text segments across opposed pages without waiting for paging. Yet another method displays text to allow reading from bottom to top as though from front to back.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2006Publication date: June 15, 2006Inventor: Randall Walker
