Abstract: Dans les procédés selon l'invention, la détection automatique de polypes est convertie en un problème de reconnaissance des formes 2D par projection conforme et rendu volumique direct. La surface du côlon est d'abord segmentée et extraite de l'ensemble de données tomographiques de l'abdomen, qui est ensuite appliqué à un plan 2D par projection conforme. Un lancer de rayon est utilisé pour déterminer les valeurs de densité de sous-surface et l'image aplatie est rendue par une technique de rendu volumique avec une fonction de transfert de biopsie électronique translucide. Les candidats polypes sont détectés par un procédé de regroupement qui identifie les régions de forte densité sous-surface. Le potentiel de faux positifs est réduit par l'analyse de la forme volumétrique et les caractéristiques de texture des régions de polypes candidats.

Abstract: The electrical connector can be used to establish mechanical and electrical connection between a flexible component, such as, a flexible circuit or a flexible cable, and a printed circuit board. The connector generally comprises an upper housing, a contact housing, contacts, expandable leg members and post elements. The expandable legs are disposed on the upper housing. The contacts are disposed in openings in the contact housing. In order to use the connector, the flexible component is placed between the contact housing and the upper housing. Alignment posts ensure that the contacts and the conductors on the flexible component are precisely aligned. The connector is mounted to the circuit board by inserting the expandable legs in mounting holes in the circuit board. Once inserted, the expandable legs can be radially expanded by driving the post elements into the expandable legs. The circuit board also include alignment holes which ensure the proper orientation of the contacts to circuit board. The connector may also include an assembly tool which is adapted to both preload the contacts and drive the post elements into the expandable legs. Additionally, the electrical connector may include a removal tool which can be used to drive the inserted post elements out of the expandable legs.

A manipulated variable is formed for controlling the friction clutch based on the set point value. An independent claim is also included for a control system for controlling a friction clutch between an internal combustion engine and a change speed transmission.

Abstract: An inflatable evacuation slide has a pressure relief valve in at least one of the inflatable support tubes. The pressure relief (52) valve has a "floating" lifter (80) that slidingly engages the valve stem (64) of the poppet valve portion of the pressure relief valve. Because the lifter (80) floats on the valve stem (64), the lifter cannot load the poppet valve in compression. When the poppet valve opens, however, air pressure acting on the lifter causes the lifter to engage a stop at the end of the valve stem, which enables the lifter to fully open the poppet.

Abstract: Paths are changed quickly without burdening a network when link failure occurs, allowing packets to avoid the location of the failure. A node in a network ascertains tree information of the network by acquiring the tree information from another node or computing the tree information, extracts in advance a node set as a range affected by link failure, based on the ascertained tree information, the node set including incoming and outgoing links of the node as part of the tree, notifies, when link failure is detected, only the affected area that link failure has been detected, and recalculates a path when link failure is detected by the node or when the notification is received from another node. The path recomputation is performed assuming that failure occurred simultaneously on an outgoing link paired with an incoming link whose failure has been detected. The notification is performed by specifying a path in advance.
