Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to the use of compositions that include antibodies, e.g., monoclonal, chimeric, affinity-matured or humanized antibodies, antibody fragments, etc., that specifically bind one or more epitopes within a Sortilin protein, e.g., human Sortilin or mammalian Sortilin, and have improved and/or enhanced functional characteristics, in treating and/or delaying progression of a disease or injury in an individual in need thereof.

Abstract: A method for processing a screen content video. The screen content video includes a plurality of frames each including a plurality of coding tree units and a plurality of coding units in each of the coding tree units. The method includes performing a coding-tree-unit-based analysis operation on the screen content video to determine content information associated with the screen content video, and performing a rate control operation on the screen content video based on the determined content information to encoding of the screen content video. The content information includes content complexity information associated with the screen content video and temporal importance information associated with the screen content video.

Abstract: An approach is provided for securely printing electronic documents using a portable media. The approach is applicable to a wide variety of contexts and implementations and includes secure direct printing of electronic documents, secure direct printing of electronic documents with remote user authentication and secure printing of electronic documents with remote data management. The particular information provided on the portable media varies, depending upon the implementation. Furthermore, the approach provides varying degrees of security and may be used in conjunction with conventional printing of electronic documents.

Abstract: A printing device includes a user interface, a print module, memory and a device agent. The device agent is configured to modify usage information stored in the memory of the printing device. Based on values in the usage information, one or more processes operating on the printing device may be suspended. If so suspended, a user may contact an administrator who operates the device agent to modify the usage information, and permit the one or more processes to resume.

Abstract: An approach is provided for a smart card authentication solution utilizing dynamically configurable data to authenticate unrecognized smart cards and communicate with back-end systems not supported by a default environment. The data may be dynamically reconfigured by a user to reflect changes in the authentication environment such as a new smart card type, new data model on a card, or new remote authentication mechanism.

Abstract: A method and apparatus time-division demultiplexes and decompresses a compressed input stimulus provided at a selected data rate R1, into a decompressed stimulus, driven at a selected data rate R2, for driving selected scan chains in a scan-based integrated circuit using a plurality of time-division demultiplexors and time-division multiplexors for shifting stimuli and test responses in and out of high-speed I/O pads in order to reduce test time, test cost, and scan pin count. A synthesis method is also proposed for synthesizing the time-division multiplexors, decompressors, compressors, and time-division multiplexors.
