Abstract: Devices and methods are provided to overdrive or underdrive a display panel to account for display pixel hysteresis due to several frames of pixel history. An electronic device may include an electronic display and processing circuitry. The electronic display includes a number of display pixels. The processing circuitry may generate image data for the display pixels. The processing circuitry may receive a current frame value of the image data targeted for a first display pixel and, based at least in part on the current frame value and a pixel history of the first display pixel—may indicate a gray level for a number of previous frames—generate a compensated value by which to drive the first pixel to overcome pixel hysteresis to reach the desired luminance at an initial response.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a nonmetallic unbonded flexible riser for deep-sea mining and a manufacturing method thereof, wherein the riser includes a lining layer, an internal pressure resistant reinforcing layer, a first anti-wear layer, a first compensation reinforcing layer, a second anti-wear layer, a second compensation reinforcing layer, a third anti-wear layer, a framework layer, a isolation layer, a first tensile reinforcing layer, a fourth anti-wear layer, a second tensile reinforcing layer and an outer coating layer which are sequentially arranged from inside to outside, wherein unbonded connection between adjacent layers is adopted. The present invention may ensure the continuous transportation of the mineral and the seawater inside the flexible mixed transportation pipe, adapt to the severe marine environment and loading condition, and ensure the safety of mining work.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein to control brightness based on image content or other inputs to a display system. A dual-control system may integrate both slow control operations and fast control operations into a cohesive brightness management system. By using both shorter-term (e.g., fast control) and longer-term (e.g., slow control) brightness adjustment operations, the electronic device may quickly respond to high luminance and high brightness situations that may cause burn-in into the display, image artifacts, or other damage. Responding quickly to these high consumption situations may prevent damage or perceivable upset to an ongoing process, among other benefits.

Abstract: A BLyS antibody, preparation method therefor and application thereof, the BLyS antibody comprising one or more of CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 of a heavy chain variable region of the BLyS antibody, and/or one or more of CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 of a light chain variable region of the BLyS antibody. An amino acid sequence of the antibody is shown in a sequence listing. The BLyS antibody has a high affinity, and may observably and effectively seal a BLyS protein at a protein level and a cell level, and prevent the BLyS protein from binding to a receptor. The BLyS antibody lacks a cross-reaction with homologous protein antigens such as human APRIL, and enjoys good biological activity. The BLyS antibody may inhibit the proliferation of human BLyS-induced mouse B cells and may therefore be used for preparing a drug for preventing or treating diseases associated with BLyS expression or dysfunction.
