Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of an article from a copolymer of lactide and  epsilon -caprolactone for medical applications, in which method the copolymer is obtained by a synthesis which is carried out as a bulk synthesis at a temperature of 80 to 160  DEG C. Articles according to the invention can be used in numerous fields, but are in particular advantageous if they are employed in biomedical fields. Examples are an implant for the repair of a meniscus or a blood vessel, stents or artificial skin. Stents are small spirals which are used to hold open (coronary) arteries which have silted up. Use in abdominal wall reconstruction is also possible.

Abstract: A reclosable closure for containers of the type used for keeping or storing product for some time following initial opening of the container. Typical uses would be for snack foods such as candies, peanuts, etc., and powdered products such as sugar, coffee, tea and other beverage mixes and the like. The closure also is adaptable for use with canned vagetables and meats and also with non-food products such as, for example, nails, tacks and a myriad of similar hardware items. The preferred closure includes an end panel and a ring-shaped frame member which are fused or otherwise adhered together during insert-injection molding of the frame member. Means are provided on the frame member for contacting an edge of the end panel, or an integral pull tab thereon, for restraining the end panel in a position for reclosing the container.

Abstract: Procédé permettant de former un réseau neuronal (2) ayant des paramètres à réglage dynamique commandés par un contrôleur (10) qui détermine la réponse du réseau (2). Une série de vecteur d'entrée (I1 à In) est introduite dans le réseau (2) par un port d'entrée (4). La série de vecteurs de sortie correspondante (O1 à On) fournie par le réseau (2) est comparée à une série de vecteur de sortie cible (O1 à On) par un enregistreur d'erreurs (12) qui fournit au contrôleur (10) une mesure de similarité entre les deux séries. Le contrôleur (10) est conçu pour modifier l'indépendance des paramètres dynamiques en fonction du nombre moyen d'incidences où les vecteurs de sortie diffèrent des vecteurs de sortie cibles respectifs. Grâce à une mesure de la similarité de l'ensemble de la série de sortie et de la série cible et au réglage des paramètres en fonction de cette mesure globale, par opposition à une mesure de similarité entre des paires de vecteurs individuels, il est possible d'obtenir des taux de formation améliorés pour les réseaux neuronaux ayant un taux de débit de données qui peut être supérieur à la vitesse à laquelle les paramètres peuvene être réglés.

Abstract: To generate in-phase and quadrature components for digital signals, a Hilbert transformer for phase shifting by 90 DEG  and a delay element for equalising the signal transit time of the Hilbert transformer are normally used. The usable bandwidth is limited by the fact that the Hilbert transformer has nulls in the frequency response of absolute amounts at frequency 0 Hz and at multiples of half the sampling frequency. In the device according to the present invention, these nulls are avoided since symmetric filters with a phase shift of 45 DEG  and -45 DEG , respectively, are used for generating two signals in a quadrature phase relationship, which results in a reduced complexity of implementation whilst retaining the same bandwidth. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A machine tool with an automatic device for compensation of thermal expansion is proposed which is provided with a slide (11) which is traversable on a machine column (10) and is provided with a spindle drive for accommodating tools and/or machining heads (14). The compensation device has at least one first temperature sensor (16) at the machine column (10) and at least one second temperature sensor (17) at the slide (11), a first correction value being determined as a function of the temperature signals and this correction value being fed to the positioning drive for the slide in order to compensate for the thermal expansion. A further temperature sensor (20) is provided in at least one machining head (14) which can be coupled to the spindle drive of the slide (11), the signal from which temperature sensor (20) can be fed to the compensation device (23) for the additional correction of the thermal expansion of the machining head (14). Furthermore, means (21) for recognising the coupling of the machining head (14) are provided which prevent or suppress the additional correction when the machining head (14) is not in the coupled state. In this way, automatic temperature compensation with due regard to the coupling state of a machining head can be obtained in a simple manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Method for resolving clusters of moving segments which represent a plurality of moving objects of a video sequence which partially cover one another. In a first step, clusters of moving segments are detected by positioning circumscribing rectangles around the moving segments of a video image. The size of these circumscribing rectangles is compared with a predefined upper limit and the moving segments whose circumscribing rectangles are larger than the predefined upper limit are identified as clusters of moving segments. In a second step, a leading horizontal edge, to which no circumscribing rectangle has yet been allocated, is sought in each of these clusters. A circumscribing rectangle is allocated to each edge of this type which has the same width as this edge and whose height is defined by the mean height of all the objects of the object class from a predefined set of object classes whose objects have a mean width which is closest to the width of the edge. <IMAGE>
