  • Publication number: 20180211719
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a systematic pharmacological method for personalized medicine. In the present invention, biological networks such as gene dependence networks are employed to reflect relationships between genes in pathogenesis. In combination with the gene expression data of a specific patient, a gene rank algorithm, which is capable of utilizing inter-genetic regulation relationships to mine key genes in the pathogenesis of disease in a specific patient, is used to construct a key genes list. Then, personalized medicine is carried out according to whether the drug targets are significantly targeted to the key genes list in the pathogenesis of disease in the specific patient. The systematic pharmacological method for personalized medicine proposed by the present invention is easy to implement, has low cost and high efficiency, and has wide application prospects in precision medicine and drug discovery.

  • Patent number: 9087880
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a semiconductor manufacturing method, a mask forming method and a semiconductor structure. According to one aspect of the invention, a semiconductor manufacturing method is provided, comprising: forming a metal wiring layer on a semiconductor substrate, the metal wiring layer comprising dielectrics and metal wires and metal FILLs within the dielectrics; removing the metal FILLs in the metal wiring layer completely to form the metal wiring layer without the metal FILLs. With the technical solution according to embodiments of the invention, undesirable influences due to metal FILLs will be eliminated.

  • Patent number: 8750573
    Abstract: A method for detecting presence of a hand gesture in video frames includes receiving video frames having an original resolution, downscaling the received video frames into video frames having a lower resolution, and detecting a motion corresponding to the predefined hand gesture in the downscaled video frames based on temporal motion information in the downscaled video frames. The method also includes detecting a hand shape corresponding to the predefined hand gesture in a candidate search window within one of the downscaled video frames using a binary classifier. The candidate search window corresponds to a motion region containing the detected motion. The method further includes determining whether the received video frames contain the predefined hand gesture based on the hand shape detection.
