Abstract:
A system for decreasing symptoms of primary dysmenorrhea of a female person/patient. Such system includes an electrical assembly configured for attachment at an acupoint BL57 on each posterior calf skin of the patient proximately mid-length between the ankle and knee region of the patient. Each electrical assembly includes a heating element, a temperature sensor, a heat radiator for dissipating heat generated by the heating element, and an energy source. A pulse generating controller including a computer having logic circuitry powered by the energy source and carried by and arranged in electrical communication with the electrical assembly. The controller operates each heating element through a set or series of immediately consecutive heating and cooling cycles. Each heating and cooling cycle initially involves operating the heating element to warm the person's/patient's skin underlying the heating element as measured by the temperature sensor for a period of 10 to 30 seconds and to a temperature ranging between about 122° F. to about 126 F°. Immediately thereafter, the heat exchanger applies a cooling effect to the heating element whereby cooling the heating element as measured by the temperature sensor for a time period of 10 to 60 seconds. A method for decreasing symptoms of primary dysmenorrhea of a female person/patient is also disclosed.
Abstract:
Within several applications the ability to localize an individual within an environment is beneficial. However, existing indoor localization approaches depend upon at least one of two assumptions. First, the subject(s) localization is achieved by localizing a wireless device carried by the subject and second, wireless fingerprints are established for the localization via a site survey being performed before a system can actually localize the subject(s). However, in many application scenarios, neither of the above two assumptions are true, namely that the user is not carrying an active wireless device or that the site has been surveyed. Accordingly, embodiments of the invention provide for subject localization by a dynamic calibration of wireless signals between a receiver and a transmitter, where neither the receiver or transmitter are associated with an electronic device carried or worn by the subject.

Abstract:
Some examples include generating a personal language model based on linguistic characteristics of one or more files stored at one or more locations in a file system. Further, some implementations include predicting and presenting a non-Latin character string based at least in part on the personal language model, such as in response to receiving a Latin character string via an input method editor interface.
Abstract:
A shift register unit, a shift register circuit, an array substrate and a display device can avoid a phenomenon that light lines and dark lines appear alternately in a horizontal direction in a gray scale state when the display device is lighted up normally, wherein the phenomenon is generated because a clock signal causes an abnormal output of a gate scanning voltage of the shift register unit when a frame start signal comes. The shift register unit comprises a capacitor (C1), a first transistor (T1), a second transistor (T2), a third transistor (T3), a fourth transistor (T4), a fifth transistor (T5), a sixth transistor (T6), and a voltage pulling-down control module. The shift register unit, the shift register circuit, the array substrate and the display device can be used for the manufacture of a display.
