| 20130262090 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REDUCING SEMANTIC AMBIGUITY - A semantic ambiguity reduction system deconstructs the sentence into a number of basic word units according to predetermined word definitions and semantic logic rules. The semantic ambiguity reduction system acquires the semantic judgments based on the basic word units and the semantic logic rules, stores the semantic judgment if only one semantic judgment of the sentence is acquired, and determines a number of keywords of a semantic ambiguity if more than one semantic judgment is acquired. The semantic ambiguity determines critical information by searching the keywords in the word definitions and the semantic judgments being stored, and selects one semantic judgment from the more than one semantic judgment about the sentence according to the critical information. | 10-03-2013 |

The power wire is wound on the sleeve member, the coil spring member is connected with the guiding shaft and the sleeve member. The power wire retracts in the base via the sleeve member driven to rotate by the coil spring member. | 10-03-2013 |
| 20130254874 | METHOD FOR PREVENTING INFORMATION DISPLAYED ON SCREEN FROM BEING VIEWED WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION AND DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING ANTI-VIEWING FUNCTION - A computerized method prevents information displayed on a screen of a display device from being viewed by unauthorized persons. Images in front of the screen are captured at regular intervals using an image capturing device of the display device. Faces are recognized from each of the captured images using facial recognition technologies. Whether or not the screen is in a state of being viewed by one or more unauthorized persons is determined according to the faces recognized as such in each of the captured images. A predetermined anti-viewing display is displayed on the screen to prevent the information being displayed on the screen from being viewed by any unauthorized person, when the screen is determined to be in the state of being viewed by any unauthorized person. | 09-26-2013 |
