Title: Method for the modification of PLC coefficients of acoustic signals
Inventor: MORIYA TAKEHIRO
IPC: G10L25/24
Filed: 1996-03-07
Abstract: In a CELP coding scheme, p-order LPC coefficients of an input signal are transformed into n-order LPC cepctrum coefficients cj (S2), which are modified into n-order modified LPC cepstrum coefficients cj' (S3). Log power spectral envelopes of the input signal and a masking function suited thereto are calculated (Figs. 3B, C), then they are subjected to inverse Fourier transform to obtain n-order LPC cepstrum coefficients, respectively, (Figs. 3D, E), then the relationship between each corresponding orders of the both LPC cepstrum coefficients is calculated, and the modification in step S3 is carried out on the basis of the relationship. The modified coefficients cj are inversely transformed by the method of least squares into m-order LPC coefficients for use as filter coefficients of a perceptual weighting filter. This concept is applicable to a postfilter as well. <IMAGE>

IPC: D21G1/02
Filed: 1996-06-20
Abstract: A method for regulating the loading of an adjustable-crown roll (10) having a stationary roll axle (11) around which a roll mantle (12) is rotatingly mounted, and by means of which roll a nip is formed with a backup roll (15). The deflection of the roll mantle (12) and/or the linear load in the nip is regulated by loading elements (13) and a backup zone supported on the roll axle (11) and acting upon the inner face of the roll mantle (12) in the direction of the nip plane (16). Upon the inner face of the roll mantle (12) of the roll (10) by means of the backup zone/zones, a sum force is produced which acts in the nip plane (16) in a direction substantially opposite to the force produced by the loading element (13), and the force effect applied by the backup zone/zones to the inner face of the roll mantle (12) is applied, examined in the direction of the circumference, to more than one point. The adjustable-crown roll (10) forms a nip with a backup roll (15) and includes a stationary roll axle (11) around which a roll mantle (12) is arranged revolving, between which roll mantle (12) and roll axle (11) loading elements (13) and backup zones are arranged to act upon the inner face of the roll mantle and are supported on the roll axle (11). The backup zones supported on the roll axle (11) are formed of at least two rows of backup-zone elements (20,21) or by a backup chamber or by at least one row of backup-zone elements and a backup chamber. The sum force produced by the elements or chamber in the nip plane (16) is in a direction substantially opposite to the force produced by the row of loading elements (13).

Abstract: A rust-preventing cover mounting structure is provided in
which ease of mounting and removing a rust-preventing cover is
improved without an increase in a number of parts thereof.
Anchor portions (24), which are separably anchored to hub nuts
(18) due to elastic deformation of the anchor portions, are provided
integrally with the rust-preventing cover (20) at positions thereof
corresponding to the hub nuts (18). Therefore, operations for
inserting and removing fastening members, which are separate
parts, are unnecessary, and time and labor involved in mounting
and removing the rust-preventing cover can be saved.
Accordingly, the ease of mounting and removing the rust-preventing
cover (20) to a wheel (14) can be improved. Further,
because the anchor portions (24) are formed integrally with the
rust-preventing cover (20), a number of parts does not increase,
and a manufacturing cost can be kept down.

Abstract: Advertisements and promotions to which a consumer has been 
exposed are monitored together with the subsequent purchasing 
behavior of that consumer. The information is combined to analyze 
whether and to what extent the advertisements and/or promotions 
influenced the consumer's purchases. Purchases are monitored by 
producing a machine readable record thereof with a store cash 
register. The consumer inserts this record into a home unit 
which stores this information. The home unit is also capable of 
issuing a reward to the consumer for cooperating. Also ,the 
advertising, promotion and/or purchase data is classified by the 
home unit into selected categories which can be accessed by a 
computer for further processing to provide, for example, certain 
test results of interest relatively quickly because only a 
portion of all the collected data needs to be analyzed.

Abstract: Nanocomposites are manufactured by
combining a host material, such as an organic
solvent or a matrix polymer and exfoliated
intercalates formed by contacting a phyllosilicate
with a polymer to adsorb or intercalate the polymer
between adjacent phyllosilicate platelets.
Sufficient polymer is adsorbed between adjacent
phyllosilicate platelets to expand the adjacent
platelets to a spacing of at least about 5 Å,
preferably at least about 10 Å (as measured after
water removal), up to about 100 Å and preferably in
the range of about 30-40 Å, so that the intercalate
easily can be exfoliated, e.g., when mixed with an
organic solvent or a polymer melt, to provide a
carrier material for drugs and the like, or to
provide a matrix polymer/platelet composite
(nanocomposite) material - the platelets being
exfoliated from the intercalate.

Abstract: A magnetic conveyor system (110) for transporting test samples in
tubes (34) disposed in a sample rack (33) having a magnetic or magnetically
attractive region is described. The magnetic conveyor system
includes a drive system (116), a magnet (121) coupled to the drive system and
movable in response to the drive system and a tray (38) having a first
surface adapted to receive the sample rack (33). The magnet (12) is spaced
a predetermined distance from the first surface of the tray (38) such
that the magnet provides a magnetic force at the surface of the
tray. The magnetic force engages the magnetically attractive
region of the sample rack (33) disposed on the tray (38) to thereby move
the sample rack (33) along the first surface of the tray (38) in response
to movement of the drive system (116). When the tray reaches the end
of the rack it is moved onto a processing queue tray where it is
available for test purposes. A barcode reader (26) reads a bar code
on each test sample as it is placed on the process queue to
identify one or more tests to perform. When all samples have
received the individual tests the rack (33) exits to an output queue (20)
for disposal. When a test must be made on an immediate basis out
of normal processing order a sample rack (33) can be inserted into the
process queue via a priority rack feed. In the indicated manner,
testing can continue without interruption as new racks are added
and completed racks removed.

Abstract: A composite bump structure comprising the physical and electrical connections
between an integrated circuit element and substrate using a composite bump
comprised of a single polymer body of low Young's Modulus and a conductive
metal coating. When the bonded structure is formed the composite bump is
deformed and the low Young's Modulus of the polymer body allows a very
reliable bonded structure with very low bonding force. Due to the low Young's
Modulus there is little tendency to separate the connections after the bonded
structure is formed. The bond can be formed using thermocompression bonding,
ultrasonic bonding, application of heat or application of light. The bond can also
be formed using a non conductive adhesive between the integrated circuit
element and the substrate. The bond can also be formed with a conductive
adhesive coating on the composite bump. The polymer body may be covered by
a conductive metal coating formed at the input/output pads of an integrated circuit
element or substrate. The composite bump is formed using material
deposition, lithography, and etching techniques. A layer of soldering metal can
be formed on the composite bumps if this is desired for subsequent processing. 
     It is possible to use a conductive barrier metal coating covering the polymer
body and a soldering metal coating covering the conductive barrier metal
coating. When the bonded structure is formed the composite bump is deformed
and the low Young's Modulus of the polymer body allows a very reliable bonded
structure with very low bonding force. Due to the low Young's Modulus there is
little stress tending to break the solder joint after the bonded structure is formed.
The bond is formed using a soldering process so that the soldering metal forms
a conductive adhesive between the composite bumps and either the substrate
input/output pads or the integrated circuit element input/output pads.
