Abstract: Character value of a sound signal is extracted for each unit portion, and degrees of similarity between the character values of the individual unit portions are calculated and arranged in a matrix configuration. The degree of similarity matrix has arranged in each column the degrees of similarity acquired by comparing, for each of the unit portions, the sound signal and a delayed sound signal obtained by delaying the sound signal by a time difference equal to an integral multiple of a time length of the unit portion, and it has a plurality of the columns in association with different time differences. Repetition probability, indicative of a level of similarity, is calculated for each of the columns corresponding to the different time differences in the degree of similarity matrix. A plurality of peaks in a distribution of the repetition probabilities are identified. Then, a reference matrix is generated which has predetermined reference values arranged in columns associated with positions of the time differences where the identified peaks are located. The loop region in the sound signal is identified by collating the reference matrix with the degree of similarity matrix.

Abstract: Systems and methods for location tracking notification are provided. Location sharing involves a mobile device sending location information to another device. This can allow another device to track the geographic location of the mobile device. Even though permissions can restrict access of the location information to only authorised users, the user of the mobile device might nonetheless wish to be informed of when another user is tracking their location. In accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure, if the location of the mobile device is being tracked, then the mobile device executes a user notification indicating that the location of the mobile device is being tracked. This can inform the user that their location is being tracked.

Abstract: The present invention intends to provide an inkjet printer and a printing method capable of improving the efficiency of drying a medium. An inkjet printer comprises an inkjet head (26) for ejecting ink onto a medium (50), a wave guide (100a) allowing the medium (50) on which the ink is deposited to pass through the inside of the wave guide, and a magnetron (150) for supplying electromagnetic waves into the wave guide (100a). An air sending fan (71) and an air suction fan (72) flow air in the wave guide (100a). The medium (50) after being printed is effectively dried by uninterrupted processes with the electromagnetic waves supplied into the wave guide (100a). When moisture in the ink deposited on the medium (50) is evaporated by the electromagnetic waves, the moisture vapor is discharged from the wave guide with the air flowed in the wave guide (100a), thereby preventing the drying efficiency from being deteriorated by that the moisture absorbs the energy of electromagnetic waves and thus improving the drying efficiency of the medium (50).

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for communicating information using a plurality of report dictionaries are described. A plurality of request dictionaries are implemented for a wireless terminal to use for multi-bit uplink transmission backlog request reports communicated via the dedicated control channel. Each dictionary defines a different bit mapping interpretation for a set of multi-bit uplink transmission backlog request reports, e.g. a 3 bit uplink request report and a 4 bit uplink request report. The plurality of request dictionaries includes a default dictionary and additional dictionaries. The implementation of a plurality of alternative request dictionaries expands the reporting possibilities allowing a wireless terminal to use a reporting format well- suited to its current needs. The default dictionary is mandated to be used under certain predefined conditions, e.g., upon entry into the active state. Rules for transitioning between different dictionaries and continuing to use a selected dictionary are described.

A biodegradable stent having a hollow cylindrical body woven out of a separate wire made of biodegradable polymer so as to have a plurality of rhombic spaces is fixed to an intermediate portion of a primary stent having a cylindrical body. When administered into the organ, the biodegradable stent has its original function of expanding the organ, and is firmly supported in the inner wall of a narrowed passage of the organ by pressurizing the inner wall of the narrowed passage of the organ. After a predetermined time period has elapsed, the biodegradable stent is gradually degraded away by bodily fluids, thereby enabling the primary stent to be easily removed from the organ.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to propose a method of automatic generation of the two images that are required for a layer depth format from the classical data representing a tri-dimensional virtual scene. According to the invention, a first scan of a classical z-buffer algorithm allows to generate the first image including the foreground, and, a second scan of an adapted z-buffer algorithm with two successive selections for depth-peeling allows to generate the second image discarding the foreground. 
     These two images can be advantageously used to generate multiviews as required for instance by multiview display devices.
