Title: Method for designing optimal single pointer predictive keyboards and apparatus therefore
Inventor: BRAND MATTHEW
IPC: G06F3/0488
Filed: 2001-02-06
Abstract: Keys are arranged on a keyboard as learned during a training stage. During
training, a training corpus of input symbol sequences is provided. Each
unique symbol in the corpus has an associated key on the keyboard. A cost
function that measures a cost of inputting the symbols of the training corpus
is globally minimized. Then, the keys are arranged on the keyboard
according to the globally minimized cost function. To reduced the distance a
pointer must move, the keys can also be arranged in a hexagonal pattern.

Abstract: Digital camera techniques improve the convenience of a live view display and
the like. Image processing in a digital camera includes image processing (i.e.., live view
processing) for real-time display of a subject on a liquid crystal monitor and image
processing performed on image signals followed by image capture for recording. Both
the image processing is performed by a single common image processor. In image
capture for recording, high-priority live view processing (Pc) is performed between
writing (Pa) of image signals outputted from a CCD into memory and captured image
processing (Pb). This shortens the time of not displaying a live view image, thereby
preventing a shutter release opportunity from being missed and improving the
convenience of a live view display.

Abstract: In order to provide a method of constructing a building, particularly a permanent
multi-storey building, which is flexible in design and has a high quality of finish and
structural stability, a design is created by selecting from a plurality of pre-designed
building components adapted to be connected together in a plurality of different
configurations, a set of selected building components. The design for the building will
then show how a pre-designed building components can be combined together in a
particular way to form a building. Because the components can be combined together
in a plurality of different forms, very flexible designs can be obtained. Finally, a
building is constructed according to the design by connecting the components together.
Because the components are pre-designed, the process of ordering and constructing
them is particularly quick and efficient. 
     The invention also provides a building constructed according to the method of
the invention and an assemblage of pre-designed building components which can be
used in the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for processing an
exposed colour reversal photographic film. This method enables the water
consumption of the washing baths (2) to be limited, the water levels being maintained
by a counter-current coming from the bath placed downstream, an equivalent
volume of water being discharged through an overflow. The wash waters are
recovered and treated by a nanofiltration unit capable of giving a permeate which
can be recycled to the washing baths. This method makes it possible to overcome
the problem of the presence of tin (II) in the first washing bath supplied with water
by a counter-current coming from the reversal bath (3). This process also makes it
possible to overcome the problems of discharges of chemical substances to the
drains while maintaining a good sensitometry of the developed films.
