Title: Fitting assembly evaluating apparatus and method
Inventor: WILLIAMS PETER C
IPC: B21D51/16
Filed: 2014-08-01
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide fitting assembly evaluating apparatus and methods.SOLUTION: The present application discloses methods and apparatus (510) for evaluating characteristics of components of a mechanically attached connection. Characteristics that may be evaluated include, but are not limited to, the position of a conduit gripping device (520, 518) on a conduit, an amount of axial compression or stroke of the conduit gripping device, and an amount of clamping force applied to the conduit gripping device as the conduit gripping device is compressed or stroked. In one exemplary embodiment, installing a conduit gripping device onto a conduit is evaluated by sensing a position of an end of a conduit with respect to the conduit gripping device. The sensed position makes it possible to determine whether the conduit end has reached a predetermined position relative to the conduit gripping device. The conduit gripping device is compressed so as to be attached to the conduit.

Title: Method of removal of underlines and table lines in document images while preserving character strokes
Inventor: WU CHAOHONG
IPC: G06T7/60
Filed: 2014-08-12
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for removing horizontal and vertical lines in a document image while preserving integrity of the character strokes that intersect the lines.SOLUTION: For each detected horizontal line, a vertical run length profile is calculated. Areas of the run length profile having two adjacent peaks with a valley in between are detected, the areas corresponding to intersections of the horizontal line with non-vertical lines. A first derivative curve is used to detect such peaks and valleys. Areas of the run length profile with a large run length value for consecutive pixel locations are also detected, the areas corresponding to intersections of the horizontal line with near vertical lines. The horizontal line is removed outside the intersection areas, with pixels inside the intersection areas being preserved. Vertical line removal may be done similarly. This template-free method can remove lines in tables and forms and underlines and extract handwriting or printed characters.
