Abstract: An apparatus for reducing image artifacts caused by over-ranging or clipping of the data collected in a tomographic scan using a patient support (15,53), models the density profile of the patient support with a polynomial. Coefficients of the polynomial are stored in a look-up table according to gantry angle ϑ and used to estimate the over-range data. The estimated data is blended with the in-range data by convolving an over-range mask (40) indicating which data is in-range and which data is over-range with a box car convolution kernel (75) which produces a trapezoidal weighting mask. This weighting mask is multiplied by the estimated data and then summed to the in-range data to correct for the over-range portions of the data collected.

Abstract: An information retrieval system implemented as a virtual data base management system which uses a knowledge base management system to provide a problem-oriented conceptual schema for one or more standard data base management systems. In the conceptual schema, a hierarchy of concepts is used to organize individual objects. A classifier determines which concepts an individual object is a representative of and determines the relationship of new concepts to existing concepts. The use of a knowledge base with a classifier permits conversion of queries into concepts and detection of changes in the relationships between individual objects and the concepts. A window-based user interface permits flexible and experimental access to the information. Special features of the user interface permit the user to specify conversion of a query into a concept, to establish monitors to detect such changes, and to define a query by specifying a portion of a graph.

Abstract: Despreading of the received signal (on 101) in a CDMA system is provided using code coefficient sequences which are derived (in 104) from those utilized by the system users to encode their respective symbols. Each derived code coefficient sequence (on 103) is a function of the correlation between a different user's code coefficient sequence (105-1...105-n) and the code coefficient sequences of all other users. Advantageously, this technique substantially reduces interference effects and is suitable for use in the despreader (102) of differentially or non differentially coded CDMA systems.

Abstract: In a high density memory, such as a SRAM, DRAM, EPROM or EEPROM, a hierarchical bitline configuration is utilized such that a number of local bitlines are connected to a master bitline through interface circuitry which connects a local bitline to the master bitline. Local select signals, when set to the appropriate voltage level, couple a local bitline to the master bitline. In addition to reducing the local bitline capacitance that must be driven by memory cells, the hierarchical configuration may provide layout area savings as well. 
     Interface circuitry is modified to provide voltage and signal gain and/or provide isolation between the local bitlines and the master bitlines, thereby reducing the amount of capacitance which must be driven by memory cells and the amount of time required to develop differential signals on the master bitlines.

Abstract: A biocompatible porous hollow fiber made of a polyolefine material and having a coating of biocompatible carbon material herein said coating is obtainable by a process comprising the following steps:
     introducing a preformed porous hollow fiber into an atmosphere of gaseous monomer vinylidene chloride (1,1 di-chloroethylene);   inducing a graft-polymerisation reaction and grafting a uniform layer of polyvinylidene chloride on the polyolefine material forming said porous hollow fiber; and   substantially eliminating and removing hydrogene chloride (dehydrochlorination reaction) from said polyvinylidene chloride in order to convert said polyvinylidene chloride layer into a coating of biocompatible carbon material.   
     Preferably said graft-polymerisation reaction may be induced by means of an ionising radiation, especially by means of a gamma radiation. Preferably said substantial removal of hydrogene chloride may be performed by treating the coated hollow fiber with a hot concentrated aqueous ammonia solution. Preferably said dehydrochlorination reaction may be continued in order to reduce a residual chlorine content of the coating to less than 6% based on the chlorine content of the original polyvinylidene chloride layer. The thus obtained coated porous hollow fiber may be used as exchange materials, diaphragmas and/or semipermeable membranes within devices which will contact blood or plasma outside of the living body. Those devices include oxygenators, dialyzer apparatuses, dialyzer filter apparatuses, hemoconcentrator devices, plasma filter devices, blood filter devices, heat exchange devices within oxygenators, infusion membranes and similar exchange devices.

Abstract: This is a division out of EP-(A)- 0 393 401. The figure shows a block diagram of a video camera in which automatic exposure (AE) functions can be attained such as "Iris Priority AE Mode" (light quantity controlled by the shutter speed) and "Shutter Priority AE Mode" (light quantity controlled by the iris). The video camera includes a circuit (12) for providing a voltage corresponding to a current value of the iris, a circuit (16, 19, 20) for generating a voltage corresponding to a desired iris value, a circuit (18) for comparing the two voltages, and a circuit (7) for controlling the iris based on the result of the comparison so as to keep the iris at the desired value. The output signal of the image pickup device (1) is amplified (2) and the signal quantity is determined (4) before it is compared (17) with a reference voltage (5). The output of the comparator (17) is connected to the circuit (16) setting the desired iris value, and is also connected to an exposure time changing circuit (21) which controls the exposure time to be established by the image pickup driver (22). This driver (22) serves to change signal sweep-out timing in increments/decrements of one horizontal scanning period (1H) to set the exposure start time. The exposure end time is changeable in increments/decrements of shorter than 1H (fine tuning < 1H ) so that the exposure time can be selected in an increment/decrement finer than 1H.

Abstract: Clearance take up means is provided to take up the running clearance between the bed frame and slide of a progressive former at least near the end of the advance of the slide (20) to top dead center, so that the advance is completed under essentially zero clearance conditions. 
     A header slide system must allow a certain amount of running clearance to give room for lubricant and allow for expansion of the slide (20) and bed due to variations in the temperature of the slide and bed. This clearance however compromises the concentricity of the work piece. 
     The present invention enables normal running clearances to be maintained; however, near the front of the slide (20) stroke clearances are eliminated completely by putting a side load on a system of wedges (57a,57b). This system reduces the side to side movement of the slide (20) as well as the cocking about the vertical axis of the slide (20) that occurs with offset heading loads.
