20080292187 | Apparatus and software for geometric coarsening and segmenting of still images - An apparatus and software for processing an image reduces the number of pixels constituting the image by sequentially eliminating alternate rows and columns of pixels, the information represented by each pixel being eliminated (a “source” pixel) being redistributed into adjacent “destination” pixel locations. The redistribution is made in proportion to the similarity between the source and each destination pixel, e.g., similarity of color and/or luminance values. | 11-27-2008 |

20150058196 | Systems and Methods for Managing Trade Exposure - Methods and supporting systems for updating an order type within a trade execution server for a single trading entity having multiple independent traders includes receiving, via an electronic network, a trade order for a hard-to-borrow security from multiple independent traders, and, periodically calculating an overall net position for the hard-to-borrow security for a single entity for which the traders are operating. If the trade order is a sell-long order and the net position for the corresponding security is net short, the trade order is converted to a sell-short order, and if the trade order is a sell-short order and the net position is net long, the trade order is converted to a sell-long order. The converted trade order is then transmitted to a trade execution engine for market execution. | 02-26-2015 |
