Abstract: A method of transmitting data from a source to a destination over a communication
channel is provided. The data to be transmitted is arranged into an ordered set of
input symbols. A plurality of output symbols are generated from the input symbols,
wherein the number of possible output symbols is much larger than the number of
input symbols, and wherein at least one output symbol is generated from more than
one input symbol and from less than all of the input symbols in the set of input
symbols. The plurality of output symbols are transmitted over a communication

Abstract: The invention provides a process for removing soot particles from exhaust gas
from produced by a diesel engine. The process uses a particle filter (1) that collects soot
particles with the aid of nitrogen dioxide which is generated by catalytic oxidation of
nitrogen monoxide contained in the exhaust gas. The process is characterized in that
the particle filter (1) is a deep-bed particle filter, having a filtration efficiency for the soot
particles. The particle filter is coated with a catalytic coating (2) for oxidizing nitrogen
monoxide to nitrogen dioxide and the exhaust gas leaving the particle filter
subsequently filtered through a particle filter serving as a soot barrier (3). The filter can
have a filtration efficiency of over 95 %.

Abstract: A solid state image sensor array (300; 500; 900) for correcting curvilinear distortion and method for fabricating the image sensor array utilizes straight line segments (606, 608) that approximate the curvature of the curvilinear distortion to define structures of the image sensor array. The use of these straight line segments results in photosensitive elements (302; 502; 902A, 902B, 902C, 902D) that are distributed in a non-uniform pattem to compensate for the curvilinear distortion, which may be barrel or pincushion distortion. In addition, the use of straight line segments increases the efficiency of the photosensitive elements by maximizing the surface area of the photosensitive elements. Furthermore, since the structures of the image sensor array are defined by the straight line segments, the design of the image sensor array is suitable for conventional high volume fabrication process. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multiple-level graphics processing system and method
(e.g., of an operating system) for providing improved graphics
output including, for example, smooth animation. One such
multiple-level graphics processing system comprises two
components, including a tick-on-demand or slow-tick high-level
component, and a fast-tick (e.g., at the graphics hardware
frame refresh rate) low-level component. In general, the high-level,
less frequent component performs computationally
intensive aspects of updating animation parameters and
traversing scene data structures, in order to pass simplified
data structures to the low-level component. The low-level
component operates at a higher frequency, such as the frame
refresh rate of the graphics subsystem, to process the data
structures into constant output data for the graphics
subsystem. The low-level processing includes interpolating any
parameter intervals as necessary to obtain instantaneous values
to render the scene for each frame of animation.

Abstract: A front camera (32) for filming an area stretching
forwards is disposed in a front portion of a vehicle. A
side camera (34) for filming an area stretching laterally
and diagonally forwards is disposed in a lateral-left
portion of the vehicle. An indicator display (40) that
can be visually recognized by a driver is disposed in a

direction of the vehicle, that is, a deflection angle ()
of the vehicle is detected on the basis of a vehicle
speed and a steering angle (δ) of a steering wheel, which
have been detected by means of various sensors. After the
indicator display (40) has started displaying a lateral
photo image filmed by the side camera (34), the photo
image displayed by the indicator display (40) is shifted
from the lateral photo image filmed by the side camera
(34) to a front photo image filmed by the front camera

Abstract: Conditional associations among features in samples are identified by defining
a matrix having rows that represent the samples and columns that represent the
features. Each row-column position of the matrix has a first binary value if the
sample that is associated with the row exhibits the feature that is associated with the
column, and a second binary value if a sample that is associated with the row does not
exhibit the feature that is associated with the column. Recursive partitioning then is
performed for each column. In particular, for each column, the column is recursively
partitioned relative to the remaining ones of the columns, to define a tree of
conditional branches for the rows for each column. The collection of trees of
conditional branches for the columns may be displayed and/or analyzed to identify
conditional associations of interest. Continuous features, wherein each row-column
position of the matrix has a value selected from a continuous range of values, also
may be analyzed.

Title: Fabrication of chopper for particle beam instrument
Inventor: CROTHERS C BRONSON H
IPC: H01J49/02
Filed: 2002-06-07
Abstract: A spectroscopy instrument that uses spectra produced from random binary sequence modulated data. Statistical estimation techniques are used to achieve resolution enhancement, while properly accounting for the Poisson noise distribution and other artifacts introduced by a modulator or "chopper" or other system components. A resolution similar to that of modern spectrometers can be achieved. Both static and dynamic behaviors are theoretically or measured experimentally accounted for in the model as determined. In one embodiment, the finite penetration of the field beyond the plane of the chopper leads to non-ideal chopper response, which is characterized in terms of an "energy corruption" effect and a lead or lag in the time at which the beam responds to the chopper potential.
