Abstract: A coin wrapping machine includes a discriminator for
discriminating whether or not a coin is acceptable, a denomination of the
coin when the coin is acceptable and whether or not the denomination of
the coin coincides with that specified and counting coins of the specified
denomination, a coin stacking device for stacking coins of the
denomination to be wrapped, a reference stacked coin height data
memory for storing reference stacked coin height data for each
denomination of coins stacked by the coin stacking device, and a coin
number discrepancy detecting device including a comparator for
comparing a height of stacked coins and the reference stacked coin height
data for each denomination stored in the reference stacked coin height
data memory, the discriminator being made responsive to inclusion in
coins of the specified denomination of new issue coins and past issue
circulating coins for discriminating whether each coin is a new issue coin
or a past issue circulating coin, and the coin number and discrepancy
detecting device being made responsive to inclusion in the coins of the
specified denomination of new issue coins and past issue circulating coins
for causing the comparator thereof to select the reference stacked coin
height to be compared with the height of coins stacked by the coin
stacking device in accordance with the number of the new issue coins and
the number of the past issue circulating coins determined based on a
count made by the discriminator. The thus constituted coin wrapping
machine can accurately detect whether the number of coins to be wrapped
is more than or less than a predetermined number even in the case where
new issue coins and past issue circulating coins of the same denomination
are wrapped together.

Abstract: In a simultaneous-linear-equations solving method of calculating the numerical solutions of simultaneous linear equations having a coefficient matrix, all the elements of coefficient matrix elements including zero elements and all the elements of right-side vector elements are stored into an array. Next, a non-zero-structure-specifying index table (107) is created which indicates the row number of a terminal-end non-zero element in each column and the column number of a terminal-end non-zero element in each row within the array. Moreover, a decomposition processing is executed toward the elements existing within a range indicated by the created index table (107). Finally, a forward/backward substitution processing is executed toward the coefficient matrix elements subjected to the decomposition processing and the right-side vector elements stored into the array, thereby determining the numerical solutions.

Abstract: An emotion conveyed on a sound is synthesised by selectively
modifying elementary sound portions (S) thereof prior to delivering the
sound through an operator application step (S10, S16, S20) in which at least
one operator (OP, OD; OI) is selectively applied to the elementary sound
portions (S) to impose a specific modification in a characteristic, such as
pitch and/or duration in accordance with an emotion to be synthesised.

OIsu, OIsd) to modify an intensity characteristic of an elementary sound
portion, and/or an operator (OPrs, OPfs) for selectively causing the time
evolution of the pitch of an elementary sound portion (S) to rise or fall

Abstract: An apparatus for varying localized absorption and scattering coefficients at a tissue measurement site in a controlled and reproducible manner during optical sampling of a tissue volume by controlling the pressure applied to a tissue measurement site by a spectroscopic analyzer allows applied pressure to be maintained at a constant level, or the applied pressure may be varied in a controlled, reproducible manner as a function of time. A rest for receiving a body part holds the body part in a fixed position and at a fixed elevation. A mechanical system advances a fiber optic probe until it makes contact with the body part with a constant amount of pressure. The applied force is supplied by a counterweight on a single arm balance. A temperature control allows the temperature of the fiber optic probe to be equilibrated with the temperature in the immediate vicinity of the tissue measurement site. Alternate embodiments allow the fiber optic probe to be brought into direct contact with the tissue measurement site, and displaced a known distance into the tissue. The invention is also embodied as a method in which the absorption and scattering coefficients for successive spectral measurements are calculated to determine optimum depth of penetration for detection of a target analyte.
