Title: A mandarin syllable-signal synthesis method with increased flexibility in independent control of the parameters and the capability to generate many timbres
Inventor: GUU HORNG-YAN
IPC: G01L13/02
Filed: 1996-12-24
Granted: 1997-07-01
Abstract: Since the unit of "syllable" is commonly adopted for Mandarin speech synthesis, the problem of syllable-signal synthesis is thus studied and a new method based on time-domain waveform processing is proposed. It has at least two advantages when compared to the popular method, PSOLA. First, the effect of nonlinearly warping the formant trace is largely decreased when changing one of the values of the two parameters, duration and pitch-frequency trace. The second, our method synthesize the periodical-waveform part by performing a type of time-proportionated-interpolation and a type of resampling operation. This let the flexibility of independent control of the three factors, duration, pitch-frequency trace, and vocal-track length, be largely increased. Among the three, the factor ofvocal-track length is newly proposed by us. When the values of the two factors, vocal-track length and pitch-frequency trace'sheight, are appropriately set, many distinct timbres can besynthesized by manipulating only a male's original syllablewaveforms, e.g. the timbres of cartoon actors, children, women,and men. In fact, we have already made use of the proposed method to implement a prototype text-to-speech system which can uttersentences, in real-time, in the timbre specified by the controlmessages within the input text. Therefore, there is no doubt that our method can be practically used. Besides, it set up the basefor other applications such as the synthesis of dialogues of dramas.

Title: Variable length code detection in a signal processing system
Inventor: SON JAE-CHEOL
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 1997-09-02
Granted: 2000-06-01
Abstract: A group of incoming data stream bits having packed variable length code (""VLC"") words is applied to an entropy code bit length searching module. The group of bits is replicated within a plurality of matching modules selectively distributed among entropy code bit length searching logic units. Each unit of entropy code bit length searching logic supports a VLC word table as characterized by, for example, standard compression formats such as MPEG-1, MPEG-2, H.261, and H.263. The matching modules are divided into groups within the entropy code bit length searching logic units. A group of matching modules is allocated to each VLC bit length represented in the associated VLC word supported table. A number of matching modules are allocated to each bit length equal to a minimum number of patterns unique to VLC words of a particular bit length. The matching modules compare an incoming data group to respective patterns. A detected match is indicated by an appropriately set group output signal. Each entropy code bit length searching logic unit includes a bit length encoder that receives the group output signals. The set group output signal indicates the bit length of a current VLC, and the bit length encoder encodes this information into a bit length code output signal. The bit length code signal is utilized by a shifter to parse a corresponding bit length of current data. The parsed current data may be directly applied to an address generator which generates an output signal for a decoding look up table.

Title: Compression moulding method
Inventor: KELLY PAUL ANDREW
IPC: B29C43/32
Filed: 1998-11-17
Granted: 2001-06-16
Abstract: A method of compression moulding an article from rubber moulding material incorporating hollow inserts (10, 35) avoids damage to the inserts. Where compression moulding takes place in an enclosed mould at an elevated pressure, the pressure can distort and damage the hollow insert (10, 35) especially if they are of plastics. In order to avoid such distortion and damage, the method compresses during moulding creating a pressure in a cavity (20, 36) of the insert (10, 35) which substantially balances the pressure exerted on the exterior pf the insert by the rubber moulding material in the mould. The pressure in the cavity (20, 36) is preferably produced by introducing some rubber moulding material into the cavity (20, 36) of the insert (20, 35). This material becomes pressureised during moulding and supports the interior of the insert (10, 35).
