Abstract: An apparatus for detecting an injection port (12) subcutaneously implanted in a patient (13) comprises a magnetic device (15), such as a permanent magnet or a solenoid, that emits a local magnetic field, and a magnetic detector (17), preferably including at least one Hall element, that detects the local magnetic field. The magnetic device (15) is designed to be subcutaneously implanted in the patient at the implanted injection port (12), and the magnetic detector (17) is movable externally along the patient's body to establish an injection position at the patient's skin (16) in front of the implanted injection port where the local magnetic field emitted by the magnetic device is detected by the magnetic detector. As a result, an injection needle (14) can be placed in the established injection position, in order to insert the injection needle through the patient's skin (16) directly into the injection port substantially in the centre thereof.

Abstract: A method and system for parsing of input addresses for further automated processing. A relevant locale for an input address is determined (8). Based on the locale, an applicable parsing tree is provided so that different address formats can be tested against the input address. The parsing tree is generated (11) from a local address format specification (10) that defines permissible formats for the locale. The local address format specification and the local address component rules (10) are provided to a parsing engine to determine one or more potential parsed addresses based on compliance with specifications. The local address component rules specification is applied (12) to the input address to determine one or more branches of the parsing tree for which the input address matches criteria of the component rules specification. Penalties may be assigned (13) to branches of the tree when disfavored matches occur. The various branches can be ranked (14) based on their penalties to determine the best matches to be provided to the geocoding system.

Abstract: A motor current is estimated based on a target motor speed, an actual motor speed, and an engine speed. When the estimated motor current exceeds a predetermined value equivalent to a heat limiting current value, a variation (motor speed F/B amount) of the target motor speed outputted to an EDU (31) from an ECU (30) is restricted so that the motor current was restricted and heat generation in motor (26) is restricted. In consideration of a deterioration of responsivity of the variable valve timing control due to restriction of the motor current during execution of motor current restriction processing, an existence of the abnormalities of variable valve timing controller (18) is determined based on a deviation of the target camshaft phase and the actual camshaft phase.

Abstract: In a voice authentication apparatus, a characteristics analyzer analyzes characteristics of a sample noise which is generated around a subject while the subject generates a sample voice for authentication of the subject. A setting unit sets a correction value according to the characteristics of the sample noise analyzed by the characteristics analyzer. A correction unit corrects an index value, which indicates a degree of similarity between a feature quantity of a reference voice which has been previously registered and a feature quantity of the sample voice obtained from the subject, based on the set correction value. A determinator determines authenticity of the subject by comparing the corrected index value with a predetermined threshold value.
