Abstract: The invention relates to an electrophotosensitive
material featuring an intermediate layer interposed
between a conductive substrate and a photosensitive layer
and containing a binder resin and a charge transport
material having a molecular weight of 400 or more. The
intermediate layer has a constant thickness because the
intermediate layer can be formed by, for example, dip
coating a coating solution containing the above two
components on the conductive substrate without suffering
much flow-down of the coating solution. Hence,
overlaying the photosensitive layer on the intermediate
layer provides an electrophotosensitive material capable
of offering favorable, fog-free images.

Abstract: Disclosed is a speech synthesis system and method using a smoothing filter.
A speech synthesis system for controlling a discontinuous distortion occurred at the
transition portion between concatenated phonemes which are speech units of a
synthesized speech using a smoothing technique, comprising: a discontinuous
distortion processing means adapted to predict a discontinuity occurred at the
transition portion between concatenated samples of phonemes used for a speech
synthesis through a predetermined learning process, and control a discontinuity
occurred at the transition portion between the concatenated phonemes of the
synthesized speech in such a fashion that it is smoothed adaptively to correspond to
a degree of the predicted discontinuity. The smoothing filter smoothes the
synthesized speech so that the discontinuity degree of synthesized speech follows
the predicted discontinuity degree according to the filter coefficient (a) changed
adaptively to correspond to a ratio of the predicted discontinuity degree to the real
discontinuity degree. That is, since a discontinuity occurred at a transition portion
between concatenated phonemes of the synthesized speech (IN) is adaptively
smoothed to follow that occurred in the actually spoken sound, the synthesized
speech (IN) can be approximated more closely to a real human voice.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil de saisie manuel (1, 1') destiné à la production de signaux de commande pour des objets réels et / ou virtuels. Selon la présente invention, un microphone (3) destiné à l'enregistrement et à la conversion de signaux de commande vocale acoustiques d'un utilisateur est intégré dans le boîtier (2, 2') de l'appareil de saisie manuel. De cette manière, l'utilisateur est déchargé de la manipulation de l'appareil de saisie (1, 1'). L'interface (8) entre l'appareil de saisie (1, 1') et un ordinateur (7) peut également être utilisée pour la transmission de signaux de commande vocale acoustiques, ou pour l'évaluation desdits signaux. Le nombre des connexions occupées (6) de l'ordinateur (7) est ainsi réduit. Le boîtier de l'appareil de saisie manuel (1, 1') peut en outre contenir une unité de traitement (4), par exemple un circuit intégré à application spécifique, qui soumet les signaux de sortie du microphone (3) à un algorithme d'identification automatique du locuteur, et de reconnaissance vocale, d'analyse vocale et / ou d'interprétation vocale automatiques. Dans ce cas, l'appareil de saisie manuel (1, 1') ne transmet donc pas seulement des signaux à conversion acoustique ou électrique à l'unité de calcul (7), mais transmet plutôt des instructions traitées directement par un ordinateur (7). Ledit appareil de saisie manuel (1, 1') peut fonctionner avantageusement avec un logiciel de pilotage qui active automatiquement une fonction de commande vocale (enregistrement et conversion de signaux de commande vocale acoustiques) aussitôt que l'appareil de saisie manuel (1, 1') est connecté à une connexion (6) prévue à cet effet de l'unité de calcul (7). La fonction de commande vocale-activation peut être intégrée directement dans le logiciel de pilotage qui est destiné à convertir les signaux de commande pour la commande du curseur ou de l'objet. Selon la présente invention, les signaux de commande vocale convertis et traités peuvent être transmis avec les instructions de commande restantes à l'unité de calcul (7) via une interface commune (8) filaire ou sans fil.
