20120005788 | MANUFACTURE OF XYLONIC ACID - Provided is a method for producing xylonic acid from xylose with a recombinant fungal strain that is genetically modified to express a xylose dehydrogenase gene, which is able to convert xylose to xylonolactone, which is spontaneously or enzymatically hydrolysed to xylonic acid. The xylonic acid is excreted outside the host cell. Xylonate production may be coupled with xylitol production. Alternatively, if xylitol production is not desired, its production is reduced by removing the aldose reductase (or specific xylose reductase) enzyme, which converts xylose to xylitol. Expression of a heterologous lactonase encoding gene may result in higher acid concentrations. The method is suitable for producing xylonic acid from a hemicellulose hydrolysate such as hydrolysed lignocellulosic plant biomass. | 01-05-2012 |

The first and second forecast results are combined using an optimization model to generate combined forecast results, where the optimization model applies one or more constraints to preserve one or more attributes of the first or second forecast results in the combined forecast results. | 10-10-2013 |

20090128869 | SMOOTHED ENTRIES IN A COLOR TRANSFORMATION LOOK-UP TABLE - A color transformation table is constructed in an imaging device. Unsmoothed entries are placed in a table. The unsmoothed entries are replaced by smoothed entries. The smoothed entries are indexed by a color dimensional value for each color dimension in a first color space. Each smoothed entry is a color dimensional value for a color dimension within a second color space. A first unsmoothed entry is replaced with a first smoothed entry, so that the first smoothed entry is a weighted mean of a subset of unsmoothed entries. The subset of unsmoothed entries includes the first unsmoothed entry and other unsmoothed entries that are indexed by the same color dimensional values as the first unsmoothed entry for all but a first color dimension in the first color space. | 05-21-2009 |
20100214576 | Color Separation into Neugebauer Primary Area Coverage Vectors - The disclosure describes methods for color printing, performing a color separation process and performing a halftoning process. Furthermore, the disclosure describes the color separation process determining one or more Neugebauer Primaries, tessellating the Neugebauer Primaries, and generating one or more Neugebauer Primary area coverage vectors, whose area coverages are linear with respect to a device-independent color space. The disclosure further describes that the color separation process communicates with the halftoning process using one or more Neugebauer Primary area coverage vectors. | 08-26-2010 |
