Abstract: The common rotary axis of the outputs is spaced away from the motor shaft and to them are couplable work tools circulating in a work container which can be mounted on the housing. The fastest first output (155) rotates at a speed suitable for a mixer tool. The gear has at least two independently rotatable gear input teeth arrangements (157, 165), so that the first output (155) is drivable out of direct engagement with the slower second and third outputs (185, 201). The gear is of the multi-stage planetary type and connects the second output and the third output. The second driven output is a sun wheel (179, 185) of the planetary gear.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for performing stochastic matching of a set of input
test speech data with a corresponding set of training speech data. In particular, a set of
input test speech feature information, having been generated from an input test speech
utterance, is transformed so that the stochastic characteristics thereof more closely match
the stochastic characteristics of a corresponding set of training speech feature
information. The corresponding set of training speech data may, for example, comprise
training data which was generated from a speaker having the claimed identity of the
speaker of the input test speech utterance. Specifically, in accordance with the present
invention, a first covariance matrix representative of stochastic characteristics of input
test speech feature information is generated based on the input test speech feature
information. Then, a transformation is performed on the input test speech feature
information, the transformation being based on the first covariance matrix and on a
second covariance matrix representative of the stochastic characteristics of the training
speech feature information. This transformation advantageously results in transformed
input test speech feature information having stochastic characteristics more closely
matched to the stochastic characteristics of the speech training feature information.

Title: Call distribution
IPC: H04M3/523
Filed: 1998-03-31
Abstract: A call distribution system, suitable for use in a network supporting a telemarketing
call centre, maintains call counts at a global data server and at a number of
transaction servers which are connected in common to the global data server. A
choice is made of either the global count or the local count to be used in
addressing a distribution map which determines the destination for a particular call.
The distribution map may be a minimum error map which minimises the deviation
from a planned distribution ratio wherever a call sequence is terminated.

Abstract: The microcapsule magnetic display sheet is sequentially provided
thereon with a transparent front sheet, a microcapsule layer coated on
the transparent front sheet and then a ultraviolet ray curable resin
layer. The ultraviolet ray curable resin layer is formed by painting
liquid ultraviolet raycurable resin on the microcapsule layer first and
then hardeningit by irradiating it with UV rays. As the liquid
ultraviolet ray curable resin can fill fine gaps of the microcapsules,
no hollows left between the microcapsules and the UV resin layer. 
     As the UV resin filled in gaps shares wording pressure, the
microcapsules are fully protected and hardly be destroyed. 
     After painting the liquid UV ray curable resin on the microcapsule
layer and before it IS hardened, a separable film is covered on it. 
     While a film is covered on it, the sheet is hard and if the film is
separated, the sheet is soft. So the stiffness of the magnetic display
sheet can be regulated by covering or not covering a film.
