Title: Speech encoder using voice activity detection in coding noise
Inventor: SU HUAN-YU
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 1999-08-21
Granted: 2001-09-11
Abstract: A multi-rate speech codec supports a plurality of encoding bit rate modes by adaptively selecting encoding bit rate modes to match communication channel restrictions. In higher bit rate encoding modes, an accurate representation of speech through CELP (code excited linear prediction) and other associated modeling parameters are generated for higher quality decoding and reproduction. For each bit rate mode selected, pluralities of fixed or innovation subcodebooks are selected for use in generating innovation vectors. The speech coder distinguishes various voice signals as a function of their voice content. For example, a voice activity detection (VAD) algorithm selects an appropriate coding scheme depending on whether the speech signal comprises active or inactive speech. The encoder may consider varying characteristics of the speech signal including sharpness, a delay correlation, a zero-crossing rate, and a residual energy. In another embodiment of the present invention, code excited linear prediction is used for voice active signals whereas random excitation is used for voice inactive signals; the energy level and spectral content of the voice inactive signal may also be used for noise coding.

Abstract: An air cannon 100, formed by associating an air amplifier 104 and an outlet cone 106 with one another, receives chopped fibers and forcefully deposits the chopped fibers on a collection surface or web 102 moving beyond an outlet end 129 of the outlet cone 106. The air amplifier 104 includes insert structure 118 formed of an abrasion resistant material to prevent abrasive wear within the air amplifier 104 caused by the chopped fibers. A binder is applied to the resulting mat of chopped fibers, the binder is activated by the application of energy with the resulting treated mat being compacted, cooled and rolled up to form a chopped strand mat package. For wide mats, one or more banks 130 of air cannons 100 extend across the moving collection web 102. The air cannons 100 of each bank 130 are alternately directed up-line 100A, 100C, 100E, 100G and down-line 100B, 100D, 100F of the web to reduce interference between the air cannons 100 by means of L-shaped support rods 136 which have generally horizontal 136H and generally vertical legs 136V which are separated from one another by acute 140 and obtuse angles 142 for up-line and down-line direction, respectively. The air cannons 100 can also be individually adjusted to vary the aimed direction of the air cannons 100 across the web by rotation of the generally horizontal legs 136H of the L-shaped support rods 136. The air cannons 100 forcefully direct chopped fibers to the web to overcome air turbulence within a forming hood 170 and forces due to static electricity.

IPC: B41F27/00
Filed: 2000-08-25
Granted: 2001-09-21
Abstract: The present invention can justify if the scanning line is in the safety region to avoid the frame tear phenomena being shown on the screen. Based on the requirement of the graphic application program, the present invention can determine the type of transmitting pattern blocks based on the positional relationship of the target bitmap and source bitmap in the frame buffer. Three pattern block transmitting types are defined by the present invention: the downward pattern block transmitting type, the upward pattern block transmitting type, and the direct pattern block transmitting type. Each pattern block transmitting type has a relative pattern block transmitting command to be added into the command queue. After receiving each relative pattern block transmitting command, its safety region can be determined. Then, when the current position of the scanning line is located within the determined safety region, the source bitmap data can be safely transmitted to the target bitmap without the occurring of frame tears.

Abstract: An injection foaming forming device according to the present invention comprises: an external mold structure wherein installed with a housing space and at least an airway in connection to the housing space; and an inner mold structure made of an air-permeable sintered alloy and capable of housing by combination in the housing space; the cavity installed in the air-permeable inner mold structure can vary according to the product; when a plastic material is injected into the cavity of the air-permeable inner mold structure for foaming, an injection of 15 to 20% of the plastic material can be foamed to 100% (high ratio foaming forming). The gas in the cavity can be discharged through the air groove of the sintered alloy inner mold by the pressure generated by the foaming agent. A vacuum pump is connected to the airway of the external mold structure so that the gas discharged from the cavity of the air-permeable inner mold structure can be discharged through the airway of the external mold structure by the suction force of the vacuum pump. Thus no gas exists in the cavity of the inner mold structure and a uniform molded foam product with an excellent quality can be produced. The invented method is suitable for the production of plastic products with high/low viscosity and is a design with industrial applicability and improvement.

Title: Method of avoiding dielectric layer deterioration with a low dielectric constant
Inventor: JANG DING-JANG
IPC: H01L21/76
Filed: 2001-06-21
Granted: 2002-06-21
Abstract: The present invention is a method to avoid deterioration of a dielectric characteristic of a dielectric layer having a low dielectric constant (low k) during a stripping process. The method involves first forming a low k dielectric layer on the surface of a substrate of a semiconductor wafer. Then, a patterned photoresist layer is formed over the surface of the low k dielectric layer. The patterned photoresist layer is then used as a hard mask to perform an etching process on the low k dielectric layer. A stripping process is then performed to remove the patterned photoresist layer. Finally, a surface treatment is utilized on the low k dielectric layer to remove Si-OH bonds in the low k dielectric layer so as to avoid moisture absorption of the low k dielectric layer that causes deterioration of the dielectric characteristic.
