Title: A learning method for an image analysis system for use in the analysis of an object as well as uses of the method
Inventor: THOMSEN KNUD
IPC: G06K9/62
Filed: 1997-04-24
Abstract: In the teaching of an image analysis system, a video image of a reference object is captured. Several areas, each of which represents a class (22, 23), are marked on the video image, which is divided into pixels having their separate identification, such as colour. Once all classes have been formed, each class is given a colour which is assigned to all pixels in the class irrespective of identification. Pixels which may belong to more than one class, a so-called conflict class (24), and pixels which do not belong to any class, a so-called 0 class (25), are transferred to a residual class. Then the entire video image is processed in that the pixels which are not represented in the zero class (25) or the conflict class (24), are given a colour value from the class having a pixel identification which is closest to the pixel concerned. The principles of the invention may be applied in general in connection with analysis techniques where objects may be characterized by means of an N-dimensional set of parameters. This provides a method which can teach an image analysis system in a quick and safe manner for use e.g. in connection with analysis of cells/tissue, analysis of cuts of meat, metallurgical analyses and other similar fields.
Patent NZ-334610-A (NZ)
Title: Automatic compensation sensor, controller compensates output signal from signal output terminal
Inventor: NAKAGAKI TOSHIYA
IPC: G01D3/036
Filed: 1998-07-14
Abstract: An automatic compensation sensor (Figure 1) eliminates an exclusive input terminal for the compensation mode signal. The device includes a sensor body 1, a signal output terminal 5 for outputting signals from the sensor body and a controller for compensating the output signal from the signal output terminal. Figure 2 is a flow chart illustrating the above operation. The microcomputer 2 checks the digital output terminal 22 during step S1. Then, the microcomputer 2 determines the presence of the compensation signal during step S2. If the compensation signal is properly received, the presence of illegal data is checked during step S3. If there is no illegal data, the microcomputer executes the compensation mode in step S4. The microcomputer 2 then determines the presence of a compensation signal within a specified time in step S5. If no compensation signal is received, or if an illegal signal is received during step S3, it returns to normal operation mode during step S6. This enables the reduction of the probability of erroneous operation of the compensation mode in commercial versions of this product.

Title: Powdered compositions, each solid particle formed of a homogeneous mixture of Cefditoren pivoxil and a water-soluble high-molecular weight additive
Inventor: MURAI YASUSHI
IPC: A61K31/545
Filed: 1999-01-07
Abstract: An orally administrable powdery composition of Cefditoren pivoxil with a water-soluble high-molecular additive, and which particles have a uniform, internal texture within each particle. The yellow-coloured powdery composition consists of the solid particles each formed of the homogeneous mixture of (i) The crystallographically stable, amorphous and water-soluble substance of Cefditoren pivoxil, namely 7-[(Z)-2-(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-[(Z)-2-(4-methylthiazol-5-yl)ethenyl]-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid pivaloyloxymethyl ester, with (ii) The high-molecular additive which is either a cellulose derivative chosen from hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose, methyl cellulose and a pharmaceutically acceptable alkali metal salt or alkaline earth metal salt of carboxymethyl cellulose, or pluran, carrageenan, polyvinylpyrrolidone or an alginic acid ester of polypropylene glycol. The high-molecular additive is present in the particles in a proportion of 0.5 %-5 % based on the weight of the Cefditoren pivoxil substance.  The particles fuse at a temperature of 120oC or higher, but do not show any definite melting point. The amorphous substance of Cefditoren pivoxil (i) contained in the particles does not show any peak of the angle of diffraction in a X-ray powder diffractometry chart of the particles but exhibits in its infrared absorption spectrum a substantially broader peak of absorption at a wave number of 1750 cm, as compared with the sharp peak of absorption exhibited by the orthorhombic crystalline substance of Cefditoren pivoxil at a wave number of 1750 cm in the infrared absorption spectrum.  The amorphous substance of Cefditoren pivoxil (i) contained in the particles can be dissolved in an acidified water containing hydrochloric acid (pH 1.2) at a solubility of at least 4 mg/ml of Cefditoren pivoxil at 37oC and has a crystallographical stability such that said amorphous Cefditoren pivoxil substance does not involve crystallization when stored at 40oC for 4 months in a sealed container under dry conditions.

Title: Enhancing printhead utilization
Inventor: HIPP CHRISTIAN J
IPC: B41J2/485
Filed: 2000-05-04
Abstract: The effective life of a printhead, such as an ink jet printhead, is extended, when printing repetitive images, by taking measures to change the printhead print elements (e.g. nozzles) that are fired to effect repetitive imaging at a desired location on the media. The nozzles can be changed, yet the repetitive images be provided at the same desired location on the media by one or more of: finishing the media after printing to take into account a new position of the images on the media to provide a proper finished media (e.g. by trimming a particular edge or edges); at spaced points in time moving the printhead relative to the media in the second dimension (e.g. substantially transverse to the first dimension); and/or at spaced points in time moving the media in the second dimension relative to the printhead. Where the position of the printhead is moved, that may be accomplished by utilizing a detented shaft, controlled by a knob, that rotates a mounting shaft of the printhead and effects linear movement of the printhead. One detented movement of the detented shaft may correspond to a one pixel movement of the printhead.
