Abstract: There is disclosed a system and method for automatically performing semantic categorization. In one embodiment at least one text description pertaining to a category set is accepted along with words that are anticipated to be uttered by a user pertaining to that category set; lexical chaining confidence score is attached to each pair matched between the anticipated words and the accepted text description. These confidence scores are used subsequently by a categorization circuit that accepts a text phrase utterance from an input source along with a category set pertaining to the accepted utterance. The categorization circuit, in one embodiment, creates word pairs matched between the accepted text phrase utterance and the accepted category set. From these word scores, the category pertaining to the utterance is determined based, at least in part, on the assigned lexical chaining confidence scores as previously determined.

Title: Seuils de pression adaptatifs dans un système de surveillance de pression de pneu
Inventor: PATTISON ALLISTER
IPC: B60C23/04
Filed: 2008-03-28
Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé pour ajuster les seuils de pression dans un système de surveillance de la pression d'un pneu. L'appareil maintient des valeurs de seuil de pression et les ajuste en fonction d'une valeur de pression de pneu mesurée lorsque la pression de pneu mesurée dépasse une valeur nominale. Les valeurs de seuil de pression sont diminuées si la pression mesurée du pneu est en deçà d'une quantité seuil. Ceci permet aux seuils de pression d'être adaptés en réponse à des changements délibérés de la pression de pneu et donc de maintenir une sensibilité souhaitée. En particulier, les procédés et les appareils préférés permettent une différentiation entre un dégonflage délibéré et une fuite naturelle et amènent les seuils à être adaptés en réponse à un dégonflage et non à une fuite.
