Abstract: In a data processor controlled display system having three-dimensional
objects laid out in a three-dimensional virtual workspace,
the objects have associated there with respective collision barriers
which are stored with their corresponding objects. Then during
navigation via changing the users viewpoint in to the workspace, when
this changing viewpoint encounters any collision barrier which is offset
from its object by a selected distance D, the viewpoint stops. This
distance of the barrier from the object is selected so as to stop the
viewpoint at a distance sufficiently removed from its particular object
so as to leave the user or viewer with a view of the workscape of
sufficient scope to permit the viewer to select a different navigation
path or path branch. In accordance with a further aspect of the present
invention, the viewpoint is optionally provided with a similar collision
barrier.

Abstract: A system for providing segmented control of a single, homogeneous routing
structure, such as a switch fabric, includes application control elements that are each
responsive to embedded signal status information for each of the input signals to the
switch fabric. Within each of the application control elements, a configurable
arrangement of selectors and control logic is used to provide domain segmented
control of each of the separate switching functions for a particular application. Each
application control element performs an application specific address resolution
function to resolve a single address of one of the input signals based on the embedded
signal status of each of the input signals. This single address is provided to the
switch fabric so that the corresponding input signal can be selected at the switch
fabric output. Because embedded signal status is provided locally at each selection
point within the application control element, the control functions for each of the
separate switching functions are decoupled, and, as a result, each of the separate
switching functions can be independently controlled as a separate domain within the
application control element. The single, homogeneous switch fabric simultaneously
supports multiple applications in parallel because each of the application control
elements is used to control a separate output from the switch fabric. Because of the
one for one association between application control elements and switch fabric
outputs, the switch fabric is effectively "channelized" whereby each channel of the
switch fabric supports a separate application.

Abstract: A speech recognition system learns
characteristics of speech by a user during a learning phase
to improve its performance. Adaptation data derived from
the user's speech and its recognized result is collected
during the learning phase. Parameters characterizing
hidden Markov Models (HMMs) used in the system for speech
recognition are modified based on the adaptation data. To
that end, a hierarchical structure is defined in an HMM
parameter space. This structure may assume the form of a
tree structure having multiple layers, each of which
includes one or more nodes. Each node on each layer is
connected to at least one node on another layer. The nodes
on the lowest layer of the tree structure are referred to
as "leaf nodes." Each node in the tree structure
represents a subset of the HMM parameters, and is
associated with a probability measure which is derived from
the adaptation data. In particular, each leaf node
represents a different one of the HMM parameters, which is
derivable from the probability measure associated with the
leaf node. This probability measure is a function of the
probability measures which are associated with the nodes
connected to the leaf node, and which represent
"hierarchical priors" to such a probability measure.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the recovery of a carrier phase from a
modulated input signal where the modulation is in accordance with the M-PSK
modulation format, M has a value greater than 4 and the signal-to-noise ratio in
the channel is low. 
     A voltage controlled oscillator is employed to generate first and second
oscillations in phase quadrature with respect to each other. The modulated
input signal is mixed with the first of the oscillations to detect the (I) signal
component and the modulated input signal is mixed with the second of the
oscillations to detect the (Q) signal component. A control signal is derived from
the (I) and (Q) signal components as an estimate of the phase difference
between the input signal carrier and the voltage controlled oscillator. The
control signal conforms to the relationship:
 
where 'a' is the control signal, 'k' is an odd integer between 1 and M, and  C   k  /  m 
represent binominal coefficients. 
     The frequency of the voltage controlled oscillator is controlled by the control
signal to recover the carrier phase.

Abstract: A developing device and a blade of the developing
device, includes a contact section which is in plane
contact with a development roller, and an inclined

section so as to form a flare at an inflow section of
a one-component developer between the blade and
development roller. When a flare angle between the
blade having the flare and a line tangent to the
development roller is denoted by a tilt angle , 30° ≤
 ≤ 90°. Thus, if the flare angle at the inflow
section of the one-component developer between the
blade and development roller is optimized, even when
the one-ccmponemt developer deteriorates with time,
for example, the flowability is changed with time, it
is possible to provide a developing device and a blade
of the developing device capable of forming a one-component
developer layer with an extremely stable
deposit of one-component developer. Moreover, it is
possible to provide a blade which can increase the
dimensional tolerance of the inclined section and can
be produced easily at a low cost.

Abstract: In three-dimensional imaging of ultrasound data, speckle artifact
data are reduced before the acquired data from a volume of interest are
projected onto an image plane. A master controller performs an algorithm
that iteratively morphologically filters (28) the pixel data in a volume of
interest and then iteratively projects (30,32,34) the morphologically filtered
data onto a plurality of rotated image planes using a ray-casting technique.
Morphological filtering is performed by stepping a seven-point kernel
through a source data volume of pixel data. The kernel, made up of a
central pixel value and the six pixel values adjacent to the central pixel
value, is stepped through the entire source data volume. The
morphological filtering operation includes at least one erosion step, which
removes speckle, followed by an equal number of dilation steps, which
restore the imaging data.
