Abstract: In spontaneous speech, utterances are often ungrammatical and/or poorly
modeled by conventional grammars, keyword spotting for detection of relevant
words sequences could be ineffective and the recognition task cannot be
improved. Therefore, a key-subword spotting strategy is proposed to catch
in-word semantics on basis of a first stage recognition of an unknown word
and thus both the speech recognition and the understanding tasks are
facilitated by a second stage recognition of the same unknown word on basis of
a vocabulary reduced according to the spotted key-subword.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a link quality determination
unit (LQ-DET) for determining a link quality (LQ) of a
transmission link (TL) between an OFDM transmitter (TR) and
an OFDM receiver (RC) of an OFDM transmission system (SYS). A
first link quality measure determination unit (Q1-DET)
determines a first link quality measure (Q 1 ) on the basis of
a signal power variation or a signal-to-noise variation
determined by a variation determination unit (VS-DET). A
second link quality determination unit (Q2-DET) calculates a
second link quality measure (Q 2 ) on the basis of an average
signal-to-noise ratio based on the noise power (P z ) and the
signal power (P s ). To perform a link adaptation (LA) an
overall link quality determination unit (Q-DET) combines the
first and second link quality measures (Q 1 , Q 2 ) into an
overall link quality measure (Q).

Abstract: An apparatus and method are described for controlling response to power
transients in an optically amplified wavelength division multiplexed (WDM)
network when WDM optical channels are added and dropped, during network
reconfigurations, during failure events, and so on. In one embodiment, a variable
bandwidth filter circuit operates at a first prescribed bandwidth during a first time
period τ 0  to detect a change in signal power (i.e., power transient) caused by a
transient event, and operates at a second prescribed bandwidth that is less than the
first prescribed bandwidth after the first period of time elapses, e.g., τ 0  + ▵τ, to
substantially suppress low level signal variations, such as remnants of the power
transient. In this way, the power transient related to the actual transient event will
be preserved to trigger control circuitry, e.g., amplifier gain control based on input
power changes, while the remnants will be filtered out to prevent unwanted
responses by the control circuitry, e.g., remnants misinterpreted as actual transient
events.

Title: Imaging pyrometer
Inventor: SEITZ PETER
IPC: G01J5/60
Filed: 2000-03-13
Abstract: In the imaging pyrometer, at least three types of pixels (L, S, V) for sensing
electromagnetic radiation in at least three different spectral ranges are arranged in a
mosaic pattern. This pattern has the following properties. In a neighborhood, there
are two types of pixels with relatively narrow spectral sensitivity ranges in the
infrared (IR), a first one (L) for sensing longer IR wavelengths and the other one (S)
for shorter IR wavelengths. Additionally, there is a third pixel type (V) present for
receiving electromagnetic radiation in a broader band, e.g., in the visible part of the
electromagnetic spectrum. This is preferably realized by placing a mosaic filter
pattern directly on pixels of an appropriate optoelectronic image sensor, for example
by evaporation and photolithographic definition. The pyrometer makes it possible to
measure two images of a scene simultaneously and in perfect geometric registration:
a reliable temperature map, based on the two-wavelength pyrometric measurement
technique, and a high-resolution picture of the scene, for example in the visible
spectral range. The dynamic range for the temperature map measurement and the
simultaneous picture acquisition are be increased compared to the prior art, so that
both images are acquired under favorable signal-to-noise conditions, and the
measurable temperature range between about 350 °C and several 1000 °C is
accessible without additional neutral density filters or aperture stops.
