Patent EP-2453413-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUJIWARA KOICHI
IPC: G06T7/00
Filed: 2010-03-18
Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide the technology capable of appropriately balancing the preciseness of contour extraction and calculation cost. In order to achieve this object, an energy function setting section sets an energy function that is expressed by a weighted linear sum of a plurality of kinds of energy terms defined correspondingly to a state of an active curve and is formulated so as to have a smaller value as approaching a shape of the contour to be extracted, and an iterative computation processing section minimizes the energy function by an iterative computation. An end instruction section sets an auxiliary function formulated so as to monotonously increase in accordance with the number of iteration times of iterative computation and sets a judging function expressed by a linear sum of the auxiliary function and the energy function. Then, a point of time when a local minimum appears in the judging function in the course of the iterative computation is judged as the end timing of iterative computing.

Abstract: An system, method, and method of encoding/decoding a multi-channel audio signal, including a decoding level generation unit producing decoding-level information that helps a bitstream including a number of audio channel signals and space information to be decoded into a number of audio channel signals, wherein the space information includes information about magnitude differences and/or similarities between channels, and an audio decoder decoding the bitstream according to the decoding-level information. Accordingly, even a single input bitstream can be decoded into a suitable number of channels depending on the type of a speaker configuration used. Scalable channel decoding can be achieved by partially decoding an input bitstream. In the scalable channel decoding, a decoder may set decoding levels and outputs audio channel signals according to the decoding levels, thereby reducing decoding complexity.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, a token synchronization gateway may be recognized in a graph-based business process model, such as a business process modeling notation model. A number of upstream artifacts located upstream from the token synchronization gateway may then be identified in the business process modeling notation model. In addition, a final artifact may be identified directly in front of the token synchronization gateway. The token synchronization gateway may then be compiled into code that will be executed at runtime to perform a synchronization process. The synchronization process may, for example, include handling tokens T 1  through T n  to synchronize the upstream artifacts, with each token being associated with one of the n upstream artifacts.

Inventor: STEENWINCKEL DAVID
IPC: G01N33/487
Filed: 2011-08-12
Abstract: A method of manufacturing a biosensor semiconductor device is disclosed, in which copper electrodes at the major surface of the semiconductor devices are modified to form Au-Cu alloy electrodes. The modification is effected by depositing, typically by sputtering, a gold layer over the device, and then thermally treating the device to promote interdiffusion between the gold and the electrode copper and to alloy them. The alloyed gold-copper is removed from the surface of the device typically by CMP, leaving the exposed electrodes. Since the gold-copper alloy is harder than gold, the CMP process window is wider than would be the case of pure gold; moreover, since the electrode copper has been converted to a gold-copper alloy, it is more corrosion resistant than a conventional copper electrode. The electrodes are thus better compatible with further processing into a biosensor device than is the case with conventional copper electrodes, and the process windows are wider than for gold capped copper electrodes. 
     A biosensor semiconductor device having Au-Cu alloy electrodes is also disclosed.
