Title: Audio similarity evaluator, audio encoder, methods and computer program
Inventor: DISCH SASCHA
IPC: G10L25/18
Filed: 2019-05-29
Abstract: An audio similarity evaluator obtains envelope signals for a plurality of frequency ranges on the basis of an input audio signal. The audio similarity evaluator is configured to obtain a modulation information associated with the envelope signals for a plurality of modulation frequency ranges, wherein the modulation information describes the modulation of the envelope signals. The audio similarity evaluator is configured to compare the obtained modulation information with a reference modulation information associated with a reference audio signal, in order to obtain an information about a similarity between the input audio signal and the reference audio signal. An audio encoder uses such an audio similarity evaluator. Another audio similarity evaluator uses a neural net trained using the audio similarity evaluator.

Abstract: Eine Hochspannungs-Gleichstrom-Übertragungsanlage mit einer gleichstromführenden Leitung (L1, K, L2) ist mit spannungsbegrenzenden Anordnungen (A1, A2) versehen. Diese sind so ausgebildet, dass das Begrenzungsniveau für eine Leitungsspannung (uD) der einen Polarität grösser ist als für eine Leitungsspannung mit der anderen Polarität. Ausserdem sind die Begrenzungsanordnungen so ausgebildet, dass das Begrenzungsniveau für beide Polaritäten von Null verschieden ist. Durch die Erfindung wird erreicht, dass bei gegebener Betriebsspannung die maximale elektrische Feldstärke in der Isolation der Leitung, z.B. bei Verwendung eines Kabels, beim Auftreten transienter Überspannungen kleiner ist als bei den bekannten Übertragsungsanlagen.

Abstract: Water-soluble crystalline material which has been comminuted in a saturated aqueous solution of the material in the presence of a water-soluble crystal-growth inhibitor having a hydrophobic portion and a hydrophilic portion in its molecular structure is mixed with a deflocculant which inhibits the interaction of the hydrophobic molecular portions whenever the comminuted solid is suspended in water. The viscosity of aqueous suspensions of comminuted solid is thereby stabilised. 
     The invention is especially beneficial in the preparation of aqueous suspensions of finely comminuted ammonium nitrate for use in slurry blasting explosives. 
     With crystal-growth inhibitors such as water-soluble polysaccharide derivatives, long chain aliphatic amines, polyacrylic acids, sulphonated nuclear aromatic compounds, sulphonated dyes or sulphonated polymers the preferred deflocculant, which should be different from the crystalgrowth inhibitor, may include water-soluble polysaccharide derivatives, polyacrylic acid, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sodium lignosulphonate and/or a salt of a condensate of naphthalene sulphonic acid with formaldehyde.

Abstract: A body-implantable therapy device capable of automatically effecting relatively traumatic therapy, for example, an electric defibrillating shock to a patient's heart, in response to the apparent existence of a life-threatening condition, for example, ventricular fibrillation, requiring such therapy. In order to reduce the incidence of inappropriate treatment by such an automatic therapy device, the device generates a patient alert signal when the condition apparently occurs or exists, and allows the patient to determine what course of action the device should take. in a preferred embodiment, the therapy proceeds automatically after a suitable time delay in the absence of intervention by the patient to interrupt the therapy by actuating a control circuit. For receiving an interrupt signal from the patient, the control circuit may include a magnetically operable reed switch. In a further embodiment of this invention, the control circuit operates to initiate or to actuate the therapy device. More specifically, the patient senses the patient alert signal and has an opportunity within a predetermined time to operate the control circuit to effect therapy by the therapy device.

Abstract: A fuel injection control system for an internal combustion engine in which the amonut of fuel injected per input stroke of the engine is precisely controlled so that a predetermined constant air-to-fuel ratio is maintained. A fuel flow arithmetic unit 50, preferably operating from inputs supplied from a sensor 2 which detects the pressure in the intake manifold of the engine, calculates a fuel flow amount per intake stroke. The output of the fuel flow arithmetic unit 50 is applied as an address input to a memory 60 in which are pre- stored values of driving times for each value supplied from the fuel flow arithmetic unit 50. The driving times are calculated taking into account the non-zero opening and closing times of the fuel injection valves, thereby eliminating non-linearities in the fuel flow amount driving time characteristics. A driving signal generating circuit 70 drives (opens) the fuel injection valves 4 for times indicated by the driving times supplied by the memory 60.

Abstract: A drafting arrangement including a collector means suitably utilized for fasciated yam spinning. The collector means in a shape of hollow shell is disposed between a preceding draft means such as a pair of front rollers and a post draft means such as a pair of aprons, in such a manner that a front surface of the collector confronts a rearward surface of the preceding draft means and, on the other hand, a rear surface of the collector means confronts with a front surface of the post draft means with a predetermined clearance. By this construction, a concomitant air stream accompanied with a rotation of the draft means is effectively expelled out of the fiber passage and stable drafting can be expected.

Abstract: A small fraction of the area shown in an ultraminiature color transparency of a standard navigating chart is projected onto a viewing screen, and the transparency is moved by a precision stepdriven transport mechanism to hold the present position of the ship (or other craft) at crosshairs on the screen. The transport mechanism is controlled by a digital electronic computer that receives data from a human operator, from speed and direction sensors carried in the craft, and/or from radio navigational-aid (such as Loran) signals. The computer includes separate dedicated microprocessors for managing the transport mechanism and the receipt of sensor or radio signals, and a master generaipur- pose processor for performing calculations and coordinating the system functions with operator instructions.The computer calculates position, «course to steer,» and other parameters based on dead reckoning, manually entered bearings of navigational objects, and/or the data automatically received from such radio aids; and it controls the transparency transport on the basis of calculated position. By comparing dead-reckoning results with actual position fixes the computer determines set and drift, and it reads out «course to steer" that is corrected for set and drift. The computer can also control an autopilot, automatically setting a heading that produces the desired track, practically independent of currents.
