Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for blockchain-based data synchronization are provided. One of the methods includes: receiving, a transaction order created based on a transaction record; storing, the transaction order in association with the blockchain upon confirming the transaction order; receiving, a payment order created based on a payment record; storing, the payment order in association with the blockchain upon confirming the payment order; receiving, a fund transfer corresponding to the payment order; verifying, an amount of the fund transfer is consistent with the amount paid by the payer to the payee through the payment node; performing, a split-settlement operation on the payee based on the amount paid by the payer to the payee through the payment node; creating, a split-settlement record based on the split-settlement operation; and uploading, the split-settlement record for confirmation by the transaction node and the payment node.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and method for 3D laser imaging with a longitudinal range. An optical sensor array detects a 3D image of a target through a delay difference of laser transmission between pixels. During detection, two or more identical laser pulses are sequentially emitted to the target. Each time when a pulse is emitted, a gray image of the target is formed, and multiple pulses form multiple images. By controlling a shutter, the laser pulse returned in each imaging is truncated to varying degrees, and several charge coupled device (CCD) images with different exposures are obtained. A time-varying gray curve of each pixel is extracted, and a waveform of the corresponding laser pulse is restored. A position of a pulse peak of each pixel on a time coordinate is determined to obtain the distribution of the laser delay difference between the pixels, thereby realizing 3D imaging.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for increasing antisense activity by modulating EGFR. In certain embodiments, a compound comprising an antisense oligonucleotide is co-administered with an EGFR modulator.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for blockchain-based reconciliation are provided. One of the methods includes: creating, by a first blockchain node associated with a blockchain, an account-processing record based on an account-processing operation; generating, by the first blockchain node, a digital signature on the account-processing record by encrypting a digest of the account-processing record using a private key associated with the first blockchain node; and uploading, by the first blockchain node, the account-processing record and the generated digital signature to the blockchain, wherein the account-processing record is stored in the blockchain upon one or more second blockchain nodes confirming the account-processing record based on the digital signature.

Abstract: The embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for transmitting a data frame. The method comprises: acquiring at least one address of a destination address (DA) and a source address (SA), that are corresponding to data transmission direction information; determining, according to the data transmission direction information, an address field for carrying at least one address of the DA and the SA; and sending the data frame comprising the address field to a receiver. The method and apparatus for transmitting a data frame disclosed by the present invention can reduce overhead of an MAC frame header, improve transmission efficiency, and enable a station to acquire DA and/or SA of a data frame.

Abstract: This specification relates to computer animations, and more particularly to computer animations of biological and chemical pathways in which information defining the molecular assets, interactions and sequence of events involved in the pathway is combined with graphical information to generate a three-dimensional animation of the pathway.

Abstract: This invention discloses a dental bur consisting of a shaft, a neck, and a head with a safety front to avoid cutting in its axis direction. In one embodiment, the neck has a rough surface with either cutting grooves or abrasives which constitutes a file, but the head has a smooth surface. In another embodiment, the neck has a smooth surface, but the head has a surrounding rough surface with either grooves or abrasives which constitutes a file. Yet in another embodiment, the neck and a rear part of the head are coated with a rough surface of either cutting grooves or abrasives which constitute a file.
