Abstract: A method and apparatus for finding the best or near best binary classification of a set of observed events, according to a predictor feature X so as to minimize the uncertainty in the value of a category feature Y. Each feature has three or more possible values. First, the predictor feature value and the category feature value of each event is measured. From the measured predictor feature values, the joint probabilities of each category feature value and each predictor feature value are estimated. The events are then split, arbitrarily, into two sets of predictor feature values. From the estimated joint probabilities, the conditional probability of an event falling into one set of predictor feature values is calculated for each category feature value. A number of pairs of sets of category feature values are then defined where each set SY j  contains only those category feature values having the j lowest values of the conditional probability. From among these pairs of sets, an optimum pair is found having the lowest uncertainty in the value of the predictor feature.   
     From the optimum sets of category feature values, the conditional probability that an event falls within one set of category feature values is calculated for each predictor feature value. A number of pairs of sets of predictor feature values are defined where each set SX i (t + 1) contains only those predictor feature values having the i lowest values of the conditional probability. From among the sets SX i  a pair of sets is found having the lowest uncertainty in the value of the category feature. An event is then classified according to whether its predictor feature value is a member of the set of optimal predictor feature values.

Abstract: A display system is described for producing and showing colour images which includes a screen for displaying an interactive user interface. The display interface includes image colour choice areas, anti-alias colour choice areas, a current colour area, an echo icon area and user-movable cursor indications. The invention enables the display system user to choose among a plurality of displayed colours and to visually determine the effect of the choice. The method includes moving a cursor indication to a colour choice area, displaying the colour choice in the current colour selection area; and displaying in the echo icon area an echo icon drawn using the colour choice. This enables the display system user to see an enlarged view of the colour choice and an icon drawn with the colour and enables the user to assess the effect of the colour choice, both from the standpoint of the enlarged view and from the standpoint of exhibiting an expanded anti-aliased figure. In addition, the colour alteration also causes the image to be modified to reflect the colour change, thus enabling the user to obtain a complete assessment of the results of the colour selection.

Abstract: An optical fibre cable, in which at least one optical fibre is inserted with excess length into a tube made from metal or plastic and a protective sheath is applied around the tube, is to be constructed such that it is possible to use it to locate a heat source with a high accuracy of location. The solution consists essentially in that the optical fibre (which is coated with a thermostable material) serving as temperature sensor (TS) is spiralled as narrowly as possible, so that the permissible radius of curvature is not undershot. The optical fibre spiral is fixed by winding the optical fibre with a defined length of lay (s) about a dimensionally stable, flexible, round core (K) which has a defined radius (r). The main field of application is fire monitoring in the trunkings of underground, fast suburban or municipal railways and in mining. <IMAGE>
