Abstract: Méthode de reconnaissance des formes qui détermine la catégorie d'une forme inconnue. La catégorie fait partie d'un ensemble de catégories qui correspondent à un ensemble de formes connues. Un dictionnaire de reconnaissance au niveau des sous-catégories mémorise l'information de référence pour chaune des sous-catégories obtenues par la division des catégories qui constituent l'ensemble des catégories. Lorsque l'on reçoit (12) un signal de forme qui représente une forme inconnue, on traite ledit signal pour en extraire un vecteur de trait. En réponse au vecteur de trait, on sélectionne (14, 16) dans le dictionnaire de reconnaissance d'information de référence d'une sous-catégorie de chaque catégorie. On détermine (18) ensuite une distance entre le vecteur de trait et l'information de référence de la sous-catégorie de chaque catégorie sélectionnée au stade de sélection, ceci afin de déterminer la catégorie de la forme inconnue. Le dictionnaire de reconnaissance au niveau des sous-catégories est généré en réponse aux vecteurs de trait extaits de signaux de forme d'apprentissage, qui représentent des formes d'apprentissage respectives. Le dictionnaire de reconnaissance mémorise l'information de référence pour chacune des multiples catégories qui constituent un ensemble de catégories. Chaque catégorie est divisée (54, 56) en 2n catégories, où n est supérieure à zéro; on applique (58, 62, 64, 68) l'apprentissage par analyse discriminante à chaque sous-catégorie afin de générer des informations de référence pour la sous-catégorie.

Abstract: A high-power high-voltage transistor has four or more semiconductor dies (14)
mounted in thermal contact on a metal flange (12). Each die (14) has a flat lower surface
with a drain (collector) region formed over at least 80 percent of its lower surface. A gate
(base) region and a source (emitter) region are formed respectively on upper surfaces of the
did. The drain region is seated in direct electrical and thermal contact with the flange (12), so
that the flange serves as a drain lead for the transistor did (14). The did has a drain-source
breakdown voltage (or collector-emitter breakdown voltage) on the order of one kilovolt or
higher and an area of one hundred thousand square mils or larger. Molybdenum tabs (57)
between the drain (collector) region and the flange protect the did from thermally-induced
stresses. The dies can be MOSFET power transistors, bipolar junction transistors or other
solid-state devices. An oval lead frame (60) can be employed for connecting to the source
regions. A carousel arrangement carries an array of chips (114) on a circular flange (112).
The transistor can be implemented as a DC grounded drain, RF common source amplifier
circuit. The gate-source input can float, allowing the drain to be DC and thermally grounded.
The RF current path is conventional common source (emitter).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé à ultrasons permettant le calcul et l'affichage d'une vitesse de déformation en temps réel.

La vitesse des tissus est déterminée par mesure du décalage Doppler d'impulsion à impulsion au niveau de positions de mesure (21, 22) le long d'un faisceau d'ultrasons (6) et par calcul de la vitesse des tissus sur la base du décalage Doppler. La vitesse de déformation est ensuite calculée (14) sous la forme d'un gradient de vitesse des tissus. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, on peut utiliser des procédés de régression linéaire pour calculer la vitesse de déformation à partir de la vitesse des tissus. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, on peut déterminer la vitesse de la déformation directement (26, 27) à partir de la différence du décalage Doppler entre les positions de mesure (21, 22). Le résultat de la détermination de la vitesse de déformation peut être affiché (7) selon un certain nombre de manières telles que des images vidéo codées en couleur, en mode M ou des courbes de variation temporelle, et il peut être affiché en combinaison, ou sous la forme d'un mélange, avec une image en mode B. On peut calculer et utiliser un indice de fiabilité (28) afin de modifier l'affichage des informations de vitesse de déformation.
