Abstract: Provided in the present invention is a use of methyl 4-[9-(6-aminopuryl)]-2(s)-hydroxybutyrate in the preparation of a medicament for treating psoriasis and vitiligo. More specifically, the present invention uses mice whose psoriasis is induced by an imiquimod cream to observe a changing condition in skin lesions on the psoriasis-like mice, according to a psoriasis skin lesion area of the mice and grading standards for disease severity; the present invention also observes a proportion of lymphocytes in the spleens and cytokines in skin lesion tissues of the mice. A good therapeutic effect may be obtained by treating typical cases of vitiligo with an ointment of methyl 4-[9-(6-aminopuryl)]-2(s)-hydroxybutyrate. Results show that methyl 4-[9-(6-aminopuryl)]-2(s)-hydroxybutyrate used in the present invention has a good therapeutic effect on psoriasis and vitiligo, as well as a favorable prospect in clinical application.

Abstract: A storage unit has one or more processing devices, a solid-state drive and an open blocks cache memory. The open blocks cache memory holds open blocks of data or metadata and holds closed blocks of data or metadata pending writing to the solid-state drive. Closed blocks of data or metadata are written to the solid-state drive and open blocks of data or metadata are written to the open blocks cache memory. Values for open blocks in the open blocks cache memory are tracked. The values are adjusted in a first direction when an open block is written to the open blocks cache memory, and the values are adjusted in a second direction when an open block in the open blocks cache memory is closed and written from the open blocks cache memory to the solid-state drive.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel includes a blind hole area, which includes a blind hole light transmission region and a blind hole periphery region surrounding the blind hole light transmission region. A first transparent support is disposed on a color filter substrate in the blind hole light transmission region, and the first transparent support is configured to support the color filter substrate and a thin film transistor array substrate in the blind hole light transmission region. A black matrix is disposed on the color filter substrate in the blind hole periphery region, and a plurality of second transparent supports are disposed corresponding to the black matrix. A problem with optical uniformity of a display panel can be resolved by the first transparent support located in the blind hole light transmission region.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a two-stage end-to-end text recognition system. The text recognition system includes a text detection stage and a text recognition stage. Images inputted to the text recognition system are provided to both the text detection stage and to the text recognition stage. The text detection stage detects text regions in the images and provides the detected regions to the text recognition stage. The text recognition stage is trained to perform geometric rectification on the text regions using the images. There is end-to-end alignment between the text detection stage and the text recognition stage. Additionally, the text detection stage and text recognition stage are each trained independent of the other.
