Abstract: Automatic discovery of qualitative and quantitative patterns inherent in data sets is accomplished by use of a muffed framework which employs adjusted residual analysis in statistics to test the significance of the pattern candidates generated from data sets. This framework consists of a search engine for different order patterns, a mechanism to avoid exhaustive search by eliminating impossible pattern candidates, an attributed hypergraph (AHG) based knowledge representation language and an inference engine which measures the weight of evidence of each pattern for classification and prediction. If a pattern candi- date passes the statistical significance test of adjusted residual, it is regarded as a pattern and represented by an attributed hyper edge in AHG. In the task of classification and/or prediction, the weights of evidence are calculated and compared to draw the conclusion.

Abstract: An adjustable valve to control the amount of water flowing through the refill water hose to the overflow tube and into the water closet bowl. The valve is a dual component device including a housing structure and a lever component. Both the housing structure and lever component have a trunk section of similar shape, but of different size. The trunk section of the lever component fits snugly within the trunk section of the housing structure. The lever component is able to rotate within the housing structure. The trunk sections in both the housing structure and the lever component include openings which provide a passageway for water to flow therethrough. The openings in the housing structure are spherically shaped and the openings in the lever component are pear-shaped. The housing structure includes a pair of tabs disposed 90° from one another for limiting the rotation of the lever component such that the openings in both the housing structure and lever component are always aligned. As the lever component is rotated within the housing structure, the flow of water is varied. The water flow becomes more restricted as the lever component is rotated from one tab to the other, but is never completely obstructed.

Abstract: A compact, surface replica fuel cell has a fiber reinforced, porous central membrane (3) and two porous outer membranes (23, 31). Thin film catalyst and metal electrode materials are deposited on both sides of the central membrane, using a variety of techniques, such as ion or light bombardment, etching, and vacuum deposition. For compound fuels, two catalysts are deposited. The first catalyst (13) forms the interior surface replica electrode (9). The second catalyst is positioned on the interior of pores (65) to scavenge hydrogen before it is diffused out of the electrode and the electrolyte (21). A hydrophobic film (19) is deposited over the electrode films to control electrolyte positioning and to strengthen the electrodes. Catalyst surface active area is maximized by separating the catalyst film from the porous non- electrolyte substrate (45) and filling the voids between the substrate and the catalyst film with electrolyte. A non-bipolar stack of fuel cells is constructed on the central membrane by geometrically engineering the cells on the central membrane to provide through-membrane contacts, through-cell water flow, thin film electrodes and electrode breaks. The fuel cell may function as an electrolysis cell for generating reactant gases from the electrolyte.

Title: Adjustable slit and method for varying line width
Inventor: GOVIL PRADEEP K
IPC: G02B26/02
Filed: 1998-03-30
Granted: 2002-03-05
Abstract: Blades pivotally attached together linked to push rods and inserted into an illumination energy or flux. The blades extend longitudinally along the length of a rectangular illumination field or slit used to image a reticle onto a photosensitive substrate. The push rods are coupled to a flexure or link pivotally connected to each end of a substantially rectangular blade. The corners of the rectangular blades have a radius providing a smooth transition between blades. A frame holds the push rods in place as the blades are moved into and out of the illumination energy or flux. The push rods may be adjusted by a screw or other equivalent devices or methods. The lateral or sideways forces resulting from the movement of the blades is compensated for by the flexures or links resulting in less stress being placed on the blades. Slots placed at pivot points in the blades may also be used to facilitate movement of the blades.          The illumination energy of the rectangular illumination field or slot is adjusted to provide a uniform illumination energy. Also included is a method of adjusting the device to provide a predetermined exposure dose along the length of the illumination field as a function of line width. Different feature types may be imaged separately to optimize control over line width variation.     This is particularly advantageous in a scanning lithography system used in the manufacture of semiconductors.

Abstract: A   sensor  having   an   interferometer,   and   a corresponding method,  for use in the sensing of focal shifts in high energy laser beams are provided.   The interferometer includes optical elements for generating a  reference  beam  with  a  known  wavefront  phase curvature.   In a preferred form of the invention, the reference beam is dithered and recombined with a sample beam, to produce a time-varying interference pattern indicative of the focal shift in the high energy laser beam.   The interference pattern is focused by a lens onto  a  detector  that  produces  electrical  signals indicative of the detected interference pattern.   The electrical signals are synchronously detected to remove the   dither-frequency   component,   integrated,   and amplified to generate a focal shift correction signal.          The focal shift correction signal is then applied to an axially adjustable lens positioned to effect phase curvature changes in the reference beam wavefront to match  those  of  the  sample  beam.   The  focal  shift correction  signals  generated  by  the   sensor  are indicative of the high energy laser beam focal shift, and may be used for purposes of correcting these focal shifts.

Abstract: A postage metering system includes a plurality of printer modules operatively connected as part of a network and operating as client printer modules on the network. A postal security device (PSD) is coupled directly to a local one of the client printer modules. The PSD includes unique identification, postal value storage and a digital signature generator. The client printer modules function as a postage metering network wherein a one of the client printer modules remote to the PSD requests evidence of postage payment from the PSD through the local client printer module for concluding postage metering transactions. The local client printer module function as a stand-alone meter when requests for evidence of postage payment from the PSD are initiated at the local client printer module. The local client printer module initiates local requests for evidence of postage payment to be printed at the local client printer modules and receives remote requests for evidence of postage payment from the remote client printer modules. The remote requests include identification of the remote client printer modules. The local client printer module sends each request for evidence of postage payment to the PSD and receives from the PSD the evidence of postage payment including a digital signature corresponding to each request for evidence of postage payment;. The local client printer module sends the evidence of postage payment to the remote client printer modules in response to the remote request, and prints the evidence of postage payment in response to the local request.
