Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés de détermination du centre de focalisation et de commande du processus d'un outil lithographique. Des signatures de diffraction sont obtenues à partir d'une pluralité de structures de diffraction situées au sein de plusieurs champs différents de réglage de la focalisation. La variabilité des signatures de diffraction par rapport à chaque champ est déterminée par analyse directe ou comparaison à une bibliothèque. La variation ou l'uniformité peut être représentée par une quelconque mesure, y compris la déviation traditionnelle ou la fourchette de valeurs d'une caractéristique choisie d'une bibliothèque de structures de diffraction théorique ou la variabilité ou l'uniformité des signatures de diffraction, telles que la différence de moyenne quadratique ou la portée de l'intensité. Ces procédés peuvent être utilisés pour la commande du processus et la surveillance de la dérive de focalisation par détermination de la variation entre les champs de signatures de diffraction de plusieurs structures de diffraction dans une série de plaquettes.

Abstract: A process (300) is disclosed to measure predetermined wavelength reflectance spectra of a photo resist coated wafer (305,310,315,320) at a nominal thickness. After coating, the predetermined wavelength reflectance (325,330) is measured and the peak heights and valleys in the vicinity of the predetermined wavelength are tabulated. The relative swing ratio is computed (335) as the average peak height of the spectra at the exposure wavelength. This relative swing ratio is then compared to similar computations on other processes to determine which provides the best critical dimension (CD) control.

Abstract: An injection mold with a variable cavity size is closed to create a cavity (7a) for molding a thin walled component. Plastic is injected until the cavity is filled and then the cavity size is increased while simultaneously injecting plastic until a thick walled cavity (7b) and molding is attained. The tool can then be opened for product demolding. An independent claim is made for the molding tool which has a cavity formed by first and second tool plates and a linearly-moving embossing punch in one of the plates. A recess in the plate which surrounds one end of the embossing punch extends along the stroke of the punch parallel to its movement and connects with the molding cavity. Preferred Features: A compression phase may be applied after filling the minimal sized cavity (7a) to reduce shrinkage marks on the molding. Compression may be repeated after completion of molding in the maximum sized cavity (7b).

Abstract: Pictures (video frames) of a road intersection are
taken and analysed by breaking them up into blocks, to
track movements of vehicles. Relative movement between
vehicles is detected as an observation amount by an
observation amount detecting section (26), and
successive observation amounts are stored as an
observation series into a storage section (27).
Similarity of the observation series to a predetermined
collision observation series is calculated by a
classification section (28). A determination section
(29) determines that two vehicles have collided if, in
a case where the similarity is larger than a
predetermined value, at least one of the vehicles
concerned is at rest in a stoppage prohibition area set
in a storage section (30) whilst an unrelated vehicle
is moving. A vehicle breakdown is determined if
collision determination conditions except for the
similarity are met. By using not only a first scalar
obtained by quantizing a relative velocity vector
between vehicles but also a second scalar obtained by
quantizing a relative position vector between vehicles
as the observation amount, their relative movement can
be classified more precisely. Vehicles are tracked in
units of blocks by a mobile unit tracking section (25)
to discriminate overlapping vehicles in pictures.

Abstract: A method for conductivity calculation in a treatment fluid upstream and
downstream from a filtration unit in apparatuses for the blood treatment has
been provided. The method comprises the steps of: creating a flow of treatment
fluid in the filtration unit, imposing a change in the conductivity of the treatment
fluid at the inlet of the filtration unit in order thereby to cause an induced
conductivity change in the fluid at the outlet of said filtration unit and measuring
a predetermined number of conductivity values Cdo downstream from the
filtration unit belonging to a conductivity curve. It further comprises the steps of
defining one interpolating mathematical function for the purpose of estimating
the pattern of the conductivity curve Cdo in an interval of time after the
occurrence of the induced conductivity change and determining a characteristic
measuring time tcalc cir;  finally the value of the interpolating mathematical
function at said characteristic measuring time tcalc cir  is evaluated and
represents the conductivity value Cdo2 of the process fluid downstream from
the filtration unit after the induced conductivity change.

Abstract: The present invention relates to encoding and decoding of video data consisting of a plurality of image components. The present invention provides an encoder and a decoder together with methods to signal to the decoder the number of prediction modes that have been employed for encoding the image components. The decoder is thus able to detect the signaled number of prediction modes from the encoded video data and to decode the image components accordingly. Moreover, the decoder signals the image components that have been predicted by a common prediction mode and the image components that have been predicted independently. The decoder is thus able to assign the correct prediction mode to each image component and decode the image components accordingly.

Abstract: Compensation of the effects of uncontrolled light in an imaging system using a controlled light source. Light from the controlled light source reflected by an object and uncontrolled light are detected in a plurality of frequency ranges. Intensity of the uncontrolled light is determined based on the varying sensitivity of an image sensor to light in the different frequency ranges and known emission characteristics of the controlled light source in the frequency ranges. Once the intensity of the uncontrolled light is determined, the total light detected at each point is adjusted to reduce the effects of the uncontrolled light in the resulting imaging data produced by the imaging system.
