  • Publication number: 20100048185
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for reminding a calendar schedule and a recording medium are provided. First, a schedule and a location of an event are set in a calendar, and first positioning information of the location is obtained. Then, second positioning information of a current location of a mobile device is obtained. Next, the current location is determining whether to be within a signal range of a signal source. Once the current location is within the signal range, the time for moving from the location with the second positioning information to the location with the first positioning information is calculated. Finally, a reminding time is set according to the transferring time, and a reminding action is taken at the reminding time. Thereby, the reminding time of the event can be dynamically adjusted to avoid delay caused when the mobile device is too far from the event location.

  • Publication number: 20090076571
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of therapy used in combination with a diagnostic tool for enhanced photodynamic therapy using MRI, called (magnetic resonance imaging)-guided photodynamic therapy. The methods of the present invention includes administration of MRI contrast agent labeled polymer photosensitizer conjugates, detection and localization of tumor or cancer tissues with contrast-enhanced MRI and specific illumination and treatment of localized target tissues, such as tumors or cancer cells, using laser energy. The delivered laser energy activates the photosensitizer accumulated in the target tissue, resulting in treatment. Also disclosed are novel conjugate compounds, such as PLGA-Mce6-DOTA-Gd complexes, having multi-functionality in that the complex may include an MRI contrasting agent linked to a photosensitizing agent.

  • Patent number: 7440008
    Abstract: A video stabilization method. First, optical flows between successive frames are calculated. The camera motion is then estimated by fitting the computed optical flow field to a simplified affine motion model with a trimmed least square method. Then, the computed camera motions are smoothed to reduce the motion vibrations by using a regularization method. Finally, all frames of the video are transformed based on the original and smoothed motions to obtain a stabilized video.
