Vincent B. Young has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240177276
    Abstract: Methods and systems include receiving, at de-ringing circuitry of a display pipeline of an electronic device, scaled image content based on image data. The de-ringing circuitry also receives a fallback scaler output. The de-ringing circuitry determines whether the image data has a change frequency greater than a threshold. In response to the change frequency being above the threshold, the de-ringing circuitry determines a weight. Based at least in part on the weight, the de-ringing circuitry blends the scaled image content and the fallback scaler output based at least in part on the weight.

  • Publication number: 20240078982
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed toward systems and methods of pre-multiplied alpha handling during image processing operations. The image processing circuitry may include hardware that enables removal and insertion of pre-multiplied alpha content into red, green, blue (RGB) pixel values during gamma and scaling operations. The division by alpha and multiplication by alpha hardware may enable removal of pre-multiplied alpha content to RGB pixel values prior to gamma operations and insertion of pre-multiplied alpha content into RGB pixel values prior to scaling operations.

  • Publication number: 20220054561
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are data indicating that specific gut commensal bacteria, and metabolites thereof, can mitigate the outcome of high dose total body irradiation. Based on this, provided herein are methods of mitigating and/or preventing side effects from radiation therapy using short chain fatty acid producing bacterium or metabolites thereof. Cancer and tumor treatments and adjuvant therapies are also provided. Methods of treating and/or mitigating damage to a hematopoietic and/or gastrointestinal system in a subject are also provided using the disclosed adjuvant therapeutic compositions.

  • Publication number: 20100260861
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of treating obesity or IBS in an individual by administering a physiologically acceptable composition comprising a helminthic parasite, or an active variant thereof, that is of a type and present in an amount sufficient to treat the individual for obesity or IBS. The invention is not limited to obesity and IBS and is further drawn to conditions of health in which the microbiota profile for a population of microbes found within an individual contributes to a pathological condition.
