Patent JP-3840876-B2 (JP)
IPC: G10L25/90
Filed: 2000-05-16
Granted: 2006-11-01
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a device for periodic signal detection by which a machine signal whose amplitude changes extremely periodically at a period similar to a burst-interval of voice like a ringing tone similar to 100% modulation is distinguished from voice by using the fact that the machine signal always has periodicity although autocorrelation property in the voice does not have a fixed period. SOLUTION: Burst continuity of an input signal is judged by power measurement of the input signal, in the case it is judged that the input signal has the burst continuity and an autocorrelation function has periodicity, when judging that the period of the input signal is the period of the specific target periodic signal, the input signal is judged as the periodic signal having the specific period.

Granted: 2006-03-08
Abstract: An improved method of commutating an electronically commutated DC motor shuts off application of power between the end of one current pulse and the beginning of the subsequent current pulse. Based upon the instantaneous rotation speed, one calculates at what instant to shut off the power. During the power interruption, the disconnected winding is operated in short-circuit mode using two MOSFET transistors, and the decay of the current is monitored. When the current reaches a predetermined reduced value, the terminals of the winding are switched to a high-resistance state, until the subsequent current pulse is started. This has the advantage that less reactive power occurs during operation, and one need not install as bulky a storage capacitor as the capacitors used heretofore.

Abstract: A retouching method for enhancing an appearance of a face located in a digital image involves acquiring a digital image containing one or more faces and detecting a location of facial feature points in the faces, where the facial feature points include points identifying salient features such as skin, eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and hair. The location of the facial feature points are used to segment the face into different regions such as skin, eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, neck and hair regions. Facially relevant characteristics of the different regions are determined and, based on these facially relevant characteristics, an ensemble of enhancement filters are selected, each customized especially for a particular region, and the default parameters for the enhancement filters are selected. The enhancement filters are then executed on the particular regions, thereby producing an enhanced digital image from the digital image. <IMAGE>
