Title: Variable-length code decoding device
Inventor: FUJIYAMA TAKEHIKO
IPC: H03M7/42
Filed: 1992-02-12
Abstract: A variable-length code decoding device includes a serial-to-parallel converter (1) for converting serial data into parallel data for every N bits where N is an integer. The serial data includes consecutive data pieces having variable data lengths. A buffer (2) stores the parallel data which is sequentially read out therefrom for every 2N bits and which is shifted by N bits in a high-order-bit direction in response to a carry signal. A register (162) stores a shifted number "j" which is read out therefrom in response to a clock signal. The shifted number "j" indicates the number of bits to be shifted. A barrel shifter (3) receives the parallel data from the buffer memory and shifts, by the shifted number "j", the parallel data in the high-order-bit direction so that N-bit parallel data having a starting bit which corresponds to an (j+1)th bit of the parallel data from a most significant bit thereof is output from the barrel shifter. A shifted number/carry signal generator (8) generates, on the basis of a code length of effective data contained in the N-bit parallel data and the shifted number stored in the register, an updated shifted number and the carry signal. The shifted number stored in the register is updated by the updated shifted number.

Abstract: The process for manufacturing interior linings of motor vehicles with a skin of polyurethane material and a glass fibre-reinforced polyurethane backing, which are jointly back-foamed in a mould, operates in such a manner that first the backing (4) is separately manufactured from a glass-fibre mat, which is cut with exact contour and dimensions in relation to the finished interior lining, by impregnating with polyurethane material, with a projecting edge zone (6) only of this polyurethane material. The skin (12) is then laid in the lower mould (11) with an edge (15) projecting in the parting plane (16). Subsequently the separately manufactured polyurethane backing is laid in the upper mould, with the edge zone manufactured only from polyurethane material being in the parting plane. Back-foaming of backing and skin is carried out by filling the polyurethane material into the open mould. The mould is closed, the edge zone (6) of the separately manufactured backing in the parting plane (16) forming a seal in contact with the skin. Subsequently the moulding is removed after opening of the mould. If work is carried out in a closed mould, the mould is naturally first closed and then the polyurethane material filled into the closed mould. The edge zone, which consists only of polyurethane material, is cut off from the final product, so that waste only of polyurethane material results, which can be recycled. At the same time, during back-foaming the edge zone forms a seal, which prevents polyurethane material passing onto the outer surface of the skin during back-foaming. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Given a set of objects {A, B, C, ...}, each described by a set of attribute values, and given a classification of these objects into categories, a similarity function accounts well for this classification only a small number of objects are not correctly classified. This is obtained when coefficients are found for the similarity function which result in an error rate that is considered to be an acceptable level. A method for estimating a coefficient for a similarity function comprises the steps of: (a) selecting an initial value w = w o  as the initial coefficient of a similarity function SIM w (a,b); (b) selecting an initial value k = k o  defining the number of most-similar objects to use when testing the classification of an object; (c) computing similarity measures by using the current estimate of SIM w  for an object S to neighboring objects G i  in the given category and for the object S to neighboring objects B j  outside the given category, and forming a training set of respective data 〈S, SIM w (S,G i ), SIM w (S,B j )〉 for members in the category and those outside the category; (d) reducing the training set by eliminating all data except for the k-nearest (most similar) objects of G i  and B j ; (e) estimating new coefficients for the similarity function by adjusting w to minimize an error rate measured in terms of the extent to which neighboring objects B j  outside the category have higher similarity measures than neighboring objects G i  within the category; and (f) repeating steps (c), (d), and (e) until the error rate is reduced below a predetermined low level.

Abstract: A 3D scientific visualisation system for viewing models composed of polyhedra or other elements having vertices at which analysis results (e.g., temperature or pressure) are defined. The model is viewed either in a cutting plane or as a contour surface in which a given result assumes a specified value. Polygons making up an intersection surface formed by the intersection of the cutting plane or contour surface with the polyhedra forming the model are generated and passed to a polygon processor for rendering and display on a raster-scan device. A series of intersection surfaces are generated for display by varying either the position of the cutting plane along its normal or the value that the result assumes on the contour surface. The testing of elements for possible intersection by the cutting plane or contour surface is speeded up by presorting the elements into zones, based upon either the position of each element along the cutting plane normal or the value of the result over the vertices of the element, and testing only elements within certain zones for intersection with the plane or surface. Intersection calculations for edges shared by multiple elements are minimised by maintaining a global list of edges and flagging those edges whose intersection point with the cutting plane or contour surface has been calculated for any element of the model. The outer surfaces are identified for viewing in an alternative mode of operation by counting the elements sharing a given face of the model and flagging as outer faces those faces associated with only a single element.

Abstract: Methanol is produced by reacting a CO-rich synthesis gas in the presence of a powdered methanol synthesis catalyst suspended in an inert liquid in a liquid phase reactor system. Unreacted CO-rich synthesis gas is recycled to the reactor, thus increasing methanol production and reducing specific power compared with once-through operation without recycle or compared with recycle of hydrogen-rich gas recovered from unreacted synthesis gas. The process preferably is integrated with a coal gasification electric power generation system in which a portion of the unreacted synthesis gas is used as power generation fuel and a portion of the methanol product is used as additional power generation fuel during periods of peak power demand.
