Abstract: Some embodiments of the disclosure provide new uses of trans-1,3-dilinolein as medicaments and food. In an embodiment, an application of trans-1,3-dilinolein in the preparation of stomachic tonic and an application thereof include the preparation of medicaments for treating gastric cancer. Cell experiments show that trans-1,3-dilinolein promotes the proliferation of human gastric mucosal epithelial cell line GES-1 under normal oxygen and hypoxic conditions and it has concentration-dependent killing effect on human gastric cancer cell line HGC-27 and killing effect on hypoxic gastric cancer cells. At a concentration of 300 ?m and more, trans-1,3-dilinolein kills gastric cancer cells significantly and the killing effect becomes more significant under hypoxic conditions.

Abstract: Systems and methods for object identification. Objects in a color image of a biological sample are identified by using a signal function to transform the color image into a single-channel image with localized extrema. The localized extrema may be segmented into objects by an iterative thresholding process and a merit function may be used to determine the quality of a given result.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for the interactive display of images and measurements of samples. A user may interact with embodiments of the present invention to display measurements for a set of biological samples and subsequently display images associated with particular biological samples of interest. For example, selecting data indicators in the set may result in the display of an image associated with a biological sample as well as one or more overlays presenting information of interest as well as controls affecting the display of the image or the information.

Abstract: Embodiments of electronic systems, devices, and associated methods of touch free user input recognition are described. In one embodiment, a method includes detecting a plurality of spatial positions of a user's finger or an object associated with the user's finger with respect to time. The method also includes calculating a section length and a direction change for a plurality of pairs of consecutive detected spatial positions of the user's finger or the object associated with the user's finger. The method further includes determining if a temporal trajectory formed by the plurality of spatial positions of the user's finger or the object associated with the user's finger correspond to natural shakiness of the user's finger based on the calculated section lengths and direction changes.

Abstract: Various embodiments of electronic systems and associated methods of hands-free operation are described. In one embodiment, a method includes acquiring an image of a user's finger and/or an object associated with the user's finger with a camera, recognizing a gesture of the user's finger or the object based on the acquired image, and determining if the recognized gesture correlates to a command or a mode change for a processor. If the monitored gesture correlates to a command for a processor, the method includes determining if the processor is currently in a standby mode or in a control mode. If the processor is in the control mode, the method includes executing the command for the processor; otherwise, the method includes reverting to monitoring a gesture of the user's finger.

Abstract: Embodiments of electronic systems, devices, and associated methods of operation are described herein. In one embodiment, a computing system includes an input module configured to acquire images of an input device from a camera, the input device having a plurality of markers. The computing system also includes a sensing module configured to identify segments in the individual acquired images corresponding to the markers.
