Abstract: The present invention is a terminology extraction system
which allows for automatic creation of bilingual terminology.
A source text which comprises at least one sequence of source
terms, is aligned with a target text which also comprises at
least one sequence of target terms. The term extractor builds
a network from each source and target sequence wherein each
node of the network comprises at least one term and such that
each combination of source terms is included within one
source node, whereas each combination of target terms is
included within one target node. The term extractor links
each source node with each target node, and through a flow
optimization method selects relevant links in the resulting
network. Once the term extractor has been run on the entire
set of aligned sequences, a term statistics circuit computes
an association score for each pair of linked source/target
terms, and finally the scored pairs of linked source/target
terms that are considered relevant bilingual terms are stored
in a bilingual terminology database. The whole process can be
iterated in order to improve the strength of the bilingual
links.

Abstract: A method and system for measuring the moisture content and internal structure
of a material which is either packaged as a module or presented in a continuos
bulk flow. A frequency modulated digital pulse of very high frequency
microwaves is directed through the material under analysis by a microwave
transmitter. A microwave receiver receives the microwave signal after it exits
the material on the opposite side to that of the microwave transmitter. The
attenuation and time delay of the exit signal are analyzed and corrected with
empirically derived functions so as to calculate the moisture content and
density. respectively, of the material. Irregularity of the internal structure of the
material is determined by comparing the calculated densities of multiple slices
of the material with each other. In an alternative embodiment, the microwave
signal is transmitted through the material under analysis by a first satellite dish
antenna, and then redirected back through the same slice of material by a
second satellite dish antenna located on the opposite side of the material under
analysis. The returning signal is received by the first satellite dish antenna, and
then processed to calculate the density and moisture of the material in the same
manner as described above.

Title: High resolution camera
Inventor: MIYATAKE TAKAFUMI
IPC: H04N5/225
Filed: 1999-02-16
Abstract: A digital camera has an image sensor and an optical
system for focusing a scene on the image sensor. A zooming
system is used for changing a zoom rate of the scene that is
focused on the image sensor. By operating the zooming system
during the recording of a series of images, each of the images
has a different zoom rate and therefore a different level of
detail and field of view. The images are combined to form one
still image of super high resolution. The zoom rate between
images is detected by using horizontal and vertical pixel
intensity value projection distributions in both forward and
backward prediction methods. Horizontal and vertical
candidate projection distributions that are correlated to a
range of possible zoom rates are compared with the horizontal
and vertical projection distributions of the former and
current images being processed to determine a least error
match that is selected as the zoom rate between the adjacent
images. Using the image to image zoom rate, a scaling factor
is determined that is used for scaling each current image
before overwriting the current image over the former images
previously written to the image buffer. In this way, the
detail of each image in the series is written to the image
buffer and a super high resolution, wide angle still image is
formed that can be stored and displayed.

The textile fabric moves over the extraction pipe (15) at the vacuum unit. The underpressure at the extraction pipe (15) is continuously controlled according to the fluid level (2) in the level indicator section (12) at the immersion bath (11).

Abstract: A sampling frequency converting device is
disclosed. A memory unit stores an input signal D si  having
an input sampling frequency Fsi. An interpolation unit
interpolates the readout signal from the storage unit. A
sampling frequency ratio detection unit detects the
current sampling frequency ratio R n  between the input
sampling frequency Fsi and the output sampling frequency
Fso and detects a new sampling frequency ratio R n NEW . based
on the current sampling frequency ratio R n  and a past
detected value R n-1  preceding the current detected value by
one detection period. A control unit having the sampling
frequency detection unit controls the storage unit and the
interpolating unit from the new sampling frequency ratio
R n NEW . Since the present sampling frequency converting
device is not susceptible to accumulation of re-sampling
time address errors even if the sampling frequency ratio
continues to be changed for a pre-set time duration, the
capacity of the storage unit is not increased, while there
is no necessity of restricting the speed or amount of
change in the sampling frequency ratio.
