Title: Method for locating an element of interest contained in a three-dimensional object, in particular during a stereotactic investigation in the x-ray examination of the breast
Inventor: MULLER SERGE
IPC: G06T7/00
Filed: 1997-07-08
Abstract: As stereotactic images are digitised, the method consists in the following steps: selecting (400) a target pixel in a target region of interest, generating (401), around the selected pixel, a target window of selected dimensional characteristics and containing the said target region of interest, determining (402) in a second image, based on a predetermined criterion of selection, a set of pixels, generating (403) around each selected pixel a second window of the same dimensional characteristics as the said target window, effecting a correlation processing (404) between the grey levels of the pixels of each second window and the grey levels of the target window pixels, so as to obtain a correlation value for each second window, and identifying the region of interest homologous with the target region of interest based on the analysis of the whole set of correlation values obtained, so as to minimise the risks of pairing errors between homologous regions of interest. Then the element of interest is located from the positions of the two homologous regions.

IPC: B21D26/055
Filed: 1997-08-19
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de formage d'une structure creuse présentant une forme prédéterminée, à partir d'une feuille de matière superplastique. On forme d'abord la feuille dans une configuration (10) de préforme. Un tube d'admission de fluide réutilisable est placé dans la configuration (10) de préforme, afin de définir un orifice de communication fluide avec la partie intérieure de la configuration (10) de préforme. La configuration (10) de préforme est située dans un moule de confinement définissant une cavité présentant la forme prédéterminée voulue. On applique une force au moule de confinement pour sceller temporairement les bords de la configuration de préforme sans avoir recours au soudage ou à la liaison par diffusion. Une fois ses bords scellés, la configuration de préforme devient une gaine imperméable aux gaz susceptible de retenir un fluide introduit par le tube d'admission de fluide. On introduit un fluide par le tube pour appliquer une pression intérieure à la configuration de préforme imperméable aux gaz dans des conditions de superplasticité, pendant qu'elle se trouve toujours dans le moule de confinement.

IPC: H04W16/04
Filed: 1997-09-26
Abstract: Radio frequencies of a base station in a cellular network are chosen adaptively so that when choosing the uplink frequency the base station measure at all frequencies or at some frequencies of the reception band used in the system what is the total power of the signal received at the frequency in question. The frequency at which the lowest power is received is chosen as uplink frequency. When choosing the downlink frequency, a tuning signal is transmitted at all frequencies or at some frequencies of the transmission band. Mobiles located in areas of other cells and operating at the same frequency experience the effect of the tuning signal as an interference. The base station is tuned to use that downlink frequency at which the interference caused by itself to other traffic is sufficiently low.

Abstract: A sealing arrangement (6, 20, 37) to be positioned between two adjacent members (2, 3; 12, 13; 26, 27) between which a fluid cavity (4) is defined. Such a sealing arrangement is by example used in a swivel structure. If the exerted pressure is considerable two members will move from each other resulting in a larger spacing of the gap between them. During increasing of the pressure the requirements set to sealing do increase. According to the invention it is proposed to provide the members (2, 3; 12, 13; 20, 27) with L-shaped extensions and inverted L-shaped extensions (10, 11; 19, 21; 29, 30; 34, 35) which engage into each other and in between a spacing is defined for accommodating the sealing. If the pressure of the fluid in the cavity arises the spacing for the sealing will substantially decrease.

IPC: G06F1/04
Filed: 1998-03-03
Abstract: A clock circuit for providing an integrated circuit (100) with a high
accuracy, crystal oscillator clock (12) which interfaces to an "off-chip" crystal (10)
to provide a high accuracy clock signal while an internal, low power oscillator (24)
provides a low power clock source. Either clock may be selected to drive a
programmable processor (18) under program control. When high accuracy and
stability are required, the crystal oscillator (12) may be chosen as the processor
clock, and when lower power is desired, the low power oscillator (24) may be chosen
as the processor clock while the high accuracy clock (12) is disabled. The high
accuracy oscillator is used to clock a first timer circuit (A), while the low power
oscillator is used to clock a second timer circuit (B). The second timer circuit
output, in turn, is synchronized to the processor clock so that the programmable
processor (18) can utilize the second timer circuit even when the processor clock is
asynchronous to the second timer circuit. When the high accuracy oscillator (12) has
been selected as the timing source to the programmable processor and to the first
timer circuit, and the low power oscillator (24) is clocking the second timer circuit,
the programmable processor under program control can effectively measure the
frequency of the "on-chip" low power oscillator in terms of the frequency of the high
accuracy clock. Accordingly, when the high accuracy clock is disabled, the
programmable processor can use the low power oscillator more accurately.

Abstract: A user interface is provided for facilitating text entry to a
hand-held computer device such as a Personal Digital Assistant. A subset
of characters of a character set or alphabet is initially displayed on a
touch sensor display. Respective subsets of the remaining characters of
the alphabet are associated with the displayed characters. The user,
having a particular character in mind to enter, selects the displayed
character associated with the subset containing the displayed character.
That subset is then displayed, and the user selects the desired
character. Since a relatively few characters are displayed at a time,
user visibility is good and character selection by means of a stylus is
easy. Preferably the initially displayed characters are evenly
distributed through the alphabet. For instance, if the initially
displayed A represents the subset including A through F, then the user,
desiring to enter E, first selects A and then selects E when the subset A
through F is displayed.
