Abstract: A method is provided for aligning sentences in a first corpus to sentences in a second corpus. The method includes applying a length-based alignment model to align sentence boundaries of a sentence in the first corpus with sentence boundaries of a sentence in the second corpus to form an aligned sentence pair. The aligned sentence pair is then used to train a translation model. Once trained, the translation model is used to align sentences in the first corpus to sentences in the second corpus. Under aspects of the invention, pruning is used to reduce the number of sentence boundary alignments considered by the length-based alignment model and by the translation model. In further aspects of the invention, the length-based model utilizes a Poisson distribution.

Abstract: A fingerprint authentication device comprises input
finger characteristic judging portion 13. The input finger
characteristic judging portion 13 judges whether the input data
is proper or not on the basis of spatial frequency analysis of
an fingerprint image represented by the input data. An
observation area deciding portion decides an observation area
on the fingerprint image. A frequency analyzing portion 132
transforms image of the observation area into a Fourier
transformed image. The frequency analyzing portion 132 further
calculates averages and dispersion of strength values
corresponding to predetermined spatial frequency bands. A
discriminative value calculating portion calculates
discriminative values by the use of the averages and the
dispersion . A deciding portion decides whether the input image
is proper or not by the use of the discriminative values together
with discriminative coefficient preliminary calculated.

Abstract: A system for conducting an optical inspection of a
biological, chemical, or biochemical sample supported by an
optical transparent disc, adapting a technology which has
been developed in the field of audio and video compact discs
to scan surfaces. The disc (44) is mounted for rotation
about its central axis whilst a light source (37) and
detector (38) are mounted on an arm (36) for rotation in an
arc crossing the surface of the disc. The source (37) is
arranged above the disc (44) and the detector (38) below the
disc with the optical axes of the two being aligned so that'
the entire useable surface of disc (44) can be scanned by the
light source and detector. The disc (44) is provided with a
calibration marking (49) which interrupts the passage of the
light beam when the beam passes over it, thus allowing the
scan to be aligned relative to the disc. The optical
properties of the sample supported on the substrate can be
automatically and rapidly inspected by analyzing the output
of the light detector (38).
