Abstract: A speech classification technique for robust classification of varying modes of speech to enable maximum performance of multi-mode variable bit rate encoding techniques. A speech classifier accurately classifies a high percentage of speech segments for encoding at minimal bit rates, meeting lower bit rate requirements. Highly accurate speech classification produces a lower average encoded bit rate, and higher quality decoded speech. The speech classifier considers a maximum number of parameters for each frame of speech, producing numerous and accurate speech mode classifications for each frame. The speech classifier correctly classifies numerous modes of speech under varying environmental conditions. The speech classifier inputs classification parameters from external components, generates internal classification parameters from the input parameters, sets a Normalized Auto-correlation Coefficient Function threshold and selects a parameter analyzer according to the signal environment, and then analyzes the parameters to produce a speech mode classification.

Abstract: An improved version of a vibration isolation system using negative stiffness incorporates a payload (15) and payload platform(14) on just one 6 DOF isolator (12) in a unique and innovatively compact configuration. The isolator (1'2) includes a platform (14) supported on an assembly of independently acting flexure mechanisms which are connected in a serial fashion, tilt on top of horizontal on top of vertical, and in turn connected to a base (12). Proper arrangement of the mechanisms and the payload/platform centre of mass (17) provides highly effective decouple isolator performance. In addition, an innovative flexure preloading method which significantly improves vertical isolation performance is incorporated. This method can be used with prior (non-symmetric) designs or combined with a set of shear flexures (66) in an innovative symmetric arrangement to provide more assurance of ideal decouple response to mutually perpendicular base excitation input. Ageared mechanism (116) is also incorporated to facilitate manual adjustment of a main support spring (18) whenever payload weight is changed. <IMAGE>
