Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for generating responses
to queries to a document retrieval system. The system responds to a specific request for
information by locating and ranking portions of text that may contain the information
sought. It locates small relevant passages of text (called "hit passages") and ranks them
according to an estimate of the degree to which they correspond to the information
sought. The system minimizes the number of these hit passages that need to be
examined before an information seeker has either found the desired information or can
safely conclude that the information sought is not in the collection of texts. A relaxation
ranking mechanism is provided to accommodate paraphrase variations that occur
between the description of the information sought and the content of the text passages
that may constitute suitable answers, by retrieving phrases that are dissimilar to the
query phrase to different degrees according to a predefined set of rules, and penalizing
the retrieved phrases based upon the degree of this dissimilarity, thus providing the user
with a priority organized query hit list.

Abstract: The present invention is a reliable data link layer protocol to transport
ATM cells over a wireless point-to-point link. The protocol ensures that the
cells are transported reliably by use of a sliding window transport mechanism
with selective repeat automatic repeat request (ARQ) and forward error
correction (FEC). The protocol minimizes ATM header overhead by means
of header compression and provides per-cell FEC whose size can be changed
adaptively. The protocol also provides parity cells for recovery from errors
that cannot be corrected using the per-cell FEC field. The number of these
cells as well as the size of a window or frame can also be adaptively changed.
In addition, the window can be terminated to request an immediate
acknowledgment

Inventor: RICE DANIEL S
IPC: G06T3/40
Filed: 1996-11-26
Abstract: The present specification describes a method for scaling images by a factor of two. Two variables
are extracted from an unaligned input stream. The variables are selectively interleaved. The
high and low order bytes of the results of the interleaving are multiplied to convert
to a 16-bit representation. Horizontally interpolated data is generated by adding
pairs of this conversion. The previous iterations of horizontally interpolated data is
retained in buffers (15). Vertically interpolated data is formed by adding current and
previous horizontally interpolated data together. The horizontally interpolated data
is then doubled to maintain equal precision between the vertically and horizontally
interpolated data. A packing function is employed to convert the data back to an
eight-bit representation for output to the destination. Because the precision is the
same, a single implicit divisor in the packing instruction handles both horizontally
and vertically interpolated data.

opening (103) is formed in the holder (102) so that the
both surfaces of the silicon substrate are brought into
contact with an HF solution (115). The silicon substrate
is anodized by applying a DC voltage by using a platinum
electrode (109a) as a negative electrode and a platinum

Abstract: The invention relates to the production of planar optical waveguides which
comprise composite path regions, e.g. for lasers. A layer (12) of a first glass
composition is deposited, and selectively etched to remove unwanted material so
as to leave behind path regions. A second glass composition (13) is deposited in
the form of a soot. The amount of the second glass composition (13) is calculated
to replace the amount of removed material whereby sintering melts the second
glass composition (13) to fill the space created by said selective etching. This
produces a composite layer which comprises said second glass composition (13)
optically connected to the previously deposited path regions. The composite layer
is selectively etched to produce interconnected path regions of two different glass
compositions. Preferably the first glass composition contains a lasing dopant, e.g.
erbium, and the second glass composition contains no lasing dopant.

Abstract: An electrode substrate (20) is produced through at
least the following steps of: forming a plurality of
first electrodes (22) on a light-transmissive substrate (11)
while leaving a spacing between the first electrodes,
filling a resin (135) in the spacing, curing the filled
resin, and forming a plurality of second electrodes (6) on
the first electrodes (22) and the resin (135) so as to be in
contact with the associated first electrodes,
respectively. In the electrode substrate (20), the first
electrodes (22) have a thickness h (nm) and an average
surface roughness d (nm) and the resin (135) has a curing
shrinkage ratio α (%). The thickness h, the average
surface roughness d and the curing shrinkage ratio α
satisfies the following relationship: d ≥ α·h/1000. A
liquid crystal device (P3) is produced by using the
electrode substrate (20) satisfying the above relationship,
whereby a ripple-shaped shrinkage due to a shrinkage
of the resin (135) can be prevented in an effective optical
modulation region to minimize a cell gap unevenness
and provide a uniform alignment state to liquid
crystal molecules, thus suppressing occurrences of an
ununiform optical state, crosstalk and an irregularity
in drive characteristics to improve display qualities.
