Abstract: An ultrasound segmentation method comprising the steps of automated
initial contour identification, followed by application of a geometrically
deformable model (GDM). The formation of the initial contours

Abstract: A system for individually controlling the chromatic dispersion of one or more wavelength
division multiplexed (WDM) optical signals, the system comprising chromatic dispersion
compensation means comprising a plurality of individually controllable differential optical
delay elements. An example of a suitable differential optical delay element is a tunable fibre
Bragg grating filter whose spectral response varies along the length of the grating, i.e. is
chirped in a non-linear fashion. The system may, in addition, comprise one or more second
individually controllable differential optical delay elements arranged so as to compensate for
any unwanted delays across the wavelength band of a signal introduced by a first delay
element. Optical circulators may be used to route signals into and between the pluralities of
differential optical delay elements. This system has the advantage of providing a compact
multi-channel selective differential delay means suitable compensating for chromatic
dispersion in a WDM optical communications network.

Abstract: The first object of the present invention is to provide
a PDP with improved panel brightness which is achieved by
improving the efficiency in conversion from discharge energy
to visible rays. The second object of the present invention
is to provide a PDP with improved panel life which is achieved
by improving the protecting layer protecting the dielectrics
glass layer. To achieve the first object, the present
invention sets the amount of xenon in the discharge gas to the
range of 10% by volume to less than 100% by volume, and sets
the charging pressure for the discharge gas to the range of 500
to 760Torr which is higher than conventional charging
pressures. With such construction, the panel brightness
increases. Also, to achieve the second object, the present
invention has, on the surface of the dielectrics glass layer,
a protecting layer consisting of an alkaline earth oxide with
(100)-face or (110)-face orientation. The protecting layer,
which may be formed by using thermal Chemical Vapor Deposition
(CVD) method, plasma enhanced CVD method, or a vapor deposition
method with irradiation of ion or electron beam, will have a
high sputtering resistance and effectively protect the
dielectrics glass layer. Such a protecting layer contributes
to the improvement of the panel life.

Abstract: According to an internal combustion engine of the invention,
release operation of an antitheft device is selected as an event
generating by necessity prior to the starting of an engine (10),
and the pre-heat is started based on the generating timing of the
selected event. The start timing of the release operation of the
antitheft device is high in terms of both necessity as an event
generating prior to the starting of the engine (10) and
reproducibility of the time length from its start timing to an
arbitrary starting timing of the engine (10). The pre-heat
completed state can be secured by starting the pre-heat
synchronously with this timing or at a predetermined timing based
on the timing, even when the engine is started at an arbitrary
timing. Exhaust characteristics and fuel consumption performance
can be improved by optimizing the temperature distribution of the
engine at starting.
