Abrégé
The present invention provides affinity matured recombinant monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and fragments that bind specifically to an HLA-E-peptide complex, including HLA-E-VL9 complexes, and. regulate the cytotoxicity effector cell function of NK and/or CD8+ T-cells positive for cell-surface expression of NKG2A (“NKG2A+”). Herein, monoclonal antibodies were recombinant.lv derived from isolated functional HLA-E-VL9-specific mAbs from HLA-E-VL9 peptide-immunized HLA-B transgenic mice and from the naive human B cell repertoire. Such antibodies are capable of regulating effector cell cytotoxicity' and can preferentially recognize HLA-E-VL9 peptide complexes expressed on the surface of tumor cells. The monoclonal antibodies were subject to one or more rounds of affinity 7 maturation. The invention provides methods for using affinity matured HLA-E-VL9 mAbs to modulate NK and/or CD8+T-cell function as part of immunotherapeutic strategies.

Abrégé
This disclosure provides a novel method and system for characterizing morphodynamic profiles of objects, such as biological entities. This disclosure provides a shape, appearance, and motion (SAM) phenotype Observation Tool (SPOT). SPOT establishes a standardized SAM "phenome," image descriptors resembling single-cell transcriptomes, to comprehensively quantify a cell's instantaneous state without prior knowledge. SPOT also establishes a standardized workflow for temporal analysis. SPOT is a generalist tool, applicable to any live-cell imaging and advances biomedical discovery through its standardized, unbiased, streamlined workflow to quantify phenotypic heterogeneity and predict phenotype-genotype-function coupling.

A method of localising portable apparatus (200) obtains: a stored experience data set comprising a set of connected nodes; captured location representation data provided by at least one sensor associated with the portable apparatus, and a current pose estimate of the portable apparatus within the environment. The pose estimate is used to select a candidate set of the nodes that contain a potential match for the captured location representation data. The pose estimate is used to obtain a set of paths from path memory data, each said path comprising a set of said nodes previously traversed in the environment under similar environmental/visual conditions. The set of paths is used to refine the candidate set. The captured location representation data and the refined candidate set of nodes is compared in order to identify a current pose of the portable apparatus within the environment.

Napier, Ashley Alan
Newman, Paul Michael
Abrégé
A method and system for determining extrinsic calibration parameters for at least one pair of sensing devices mounted on transportable apparatus obtains (202) image data (110) representing images captured by an image generating sensing device (102) of the pair at a series of poses during motion through an environment (120) by transportable apparatus (100). The method obtains (202) data (112) representing a 3D point cloud based on data produced by a 2D LIDAR sensing device (104) of the pair. The method selects (204) an image captured by the image at a particular pose. The method generates (210) a laser reflectance image based on a portion of the point cloud corresponding to the pose. The method computes (212) a metric measuring alignment between the selected image and the corresponding laser reflectance image and uses (214) the metric to determine extrinsic calibration parameters for at least one of the sensing devices.

Navigation data is generated by receiving (502) a new experience data set (321) relating to a new experience capture. At least one stored experience data set (320) relating to at least one previous experience capture is also received (504). An experience data set includes a set of nodes, with each node comprising a series of visual image frames taken over a series of time frames. A candidate set of said nodes is obtained (506) from the stored experience data set that potentially matches a said node in the new experience data set, and then a check (508) if performed to see if a node in the candidate set matches the node in the new experience data set. If the result of the checking is positive then data relating to the matched nodes is added (510) to a place data set useable for navigation, the place data set indicating that said nodes in different said experience data sets relate to a same place.

Disclosed is a process and device allowing for fast measurements of the physicochemical properties of amphiphiles (lipids, surfactants, soaps,...). A Marangoni flow is created and characterized using amphiphiles to be characterized. The observed flow is characterized, and using the disclosed process, one can deduce from this measurement many important physicochemical parameters of the amphiphiles such as their critical micellar concentration. Compared to existing techniques, the disclosed process offers the advantage that it requires a single experiment to deduce the parameters, when other techniques (pendant drop method, conductometry, etc...) require the measurement of a quantity (interfacial tension, conductometry) against a systematically varied parameter (amphiphile concentration,...). The disclosed process and devices are ideal to characterize and/or screen rapidly amphiphiles molecules based on their interaction with a solvent.

Abrégé
Iminosugar compounds are described that have inbuilt delivery features by virtue of covalent incorporation of a tocopherol moiety, or alternative moieties that are analogues of tocopherol or select analogues of cholesterol, or its antagonist "Ezitimibe"; and are likely to have broad spectrum antiviral activity. The compounds differ from previous iminosugar compounds, even lipophillic ones, being more hydrophobic and resembling fats and oils in their partition behavior in vivo into lipid phases of lipoproteins, cellular lipid droplet organelles and biological membranes. These features confer a number of unique delivery attributes in vivo, favorable to the therapy of virus infections involving cells of the lymphoid system and the liver, in particular, but these features are also favorable in general for the treatment of virus infections of man and animals.

A method of localising transportable apparatus (200) within an environment includes receiving (402) data obtained from a first ranging sensor device (202) that is configured to collect information relating to a 2D representation of an environment (301) through which the transportable device is moving. Further data is received (404), that data being obtained from a second ranging sensor device (204) of the transportable apparatus configured to collect information relating to at least a surface (218) over which the transportable apparatus is moving. The ranging sensor device data is used (406) to estimate linear and rotational velocities of the transportable apparatus and the estimates are used (408) to generate a new 3D point cloud (212) of the environment. The method seeks to match (412) the new 3D point cloud with, or within, existing 3D point cloud (216) in order to localise the transportable apparatus with respect to the existing point cloud.

Navigation data is generated by receiving (502) a new experience data set (321 ) relating to a new experience capture. At least one stored experience data set (320) relating to at least one previous experience capture is also received (504). An experience data set includes a set of nodes, with each node comprising a series of visual image frames taken over a series of time frames. A candidate set of said nodes is obtained (506) from the stored experience data set that potentially matches a said node in the new experience data set, and then a check (508) if performed to see if a node in the candidate set matches the node in the new experience data set. If the result of the checking is positive then data relating to the matched nodes is added (510) to a place data set useable for navigation, the place data set indicating that said nodes in different said experience data sets relate to a same place.
