Abstract: A telephone-based interactive speech recognition system is retrained using variable weighting and incremental retraining. Variable weighting involves changing the relative influence of particular measurement data to be reflected in a statistical model. Statistical model data is determined based upon an initial set of measurement data determined from an initial set of speech utterances. When new statistical model data is to be generated to reflect new measurement data determined from new speech utterances, a weighting factor is applied to the new measurement data to generate weighted new measurement data. The new statistical model data is then determined based upon the initial set of measurement data and the weighted new measurement data. Incremental retraining involves generating new statistical model data using prior statistical model data to reduce the amount of prior measurement data that must be maintained and processed. When prior statistical model data needs to be updated to reflect characteristics and attributes of new speech utterances, statistical model data is generated for the new speech utterances. Then the prior statistical model data and the statistical model data for the new measurement data are processed to generate the new statistical model data.

Title: Managing security rule conflicts
Inventor: BOUZIDA YACINE
IPC: H04L29/06

Granted: 2011-03-16
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of managing security rule conflicts in an electronic device comprising a set S of security rules  R i  , each rule  R  being identified by an index  i , and each rule comprising a list of conditional attributes  C  and at least one corresponding decision, the list of conditional attributes further comprising  m  individual conditional attributes  C n   identified by corresponding intervals of values for setting a condition, where  n  is a variable identifying different conditional attributes in a rule. In case the set  S  of security rules is not empty, then a root node of level  n  of a conflict management tree is constructed (107), where at the root level  n  equals to  m . Next the conflict management tree comprising  m  levels of nodes is built (113; 115; 117; 119; 121; 123; 125; 127; 131; 133; 135), the nodes of different levels being connected to each other by arcs labeled by intervals or subintervals of the conditional attributes and the nodes being characterized by a rule or rules fulfilling the condition set by the interval or subinterval labeling the arc leading to the corresponding node. The conflict management tree is completed (129) by adding leaves to the arcs originating from the last level of nodes, each leaf being identified by a rule or rules that fulfill the condition set by the interval or subinterval labeling the arc leading to the current leaf. In case there are at least two rules in a leaf, then it is determined that there is at least one misconfiguration anomaly in the set S of security rules.

The process of producing germanium-on-insulator (GeOI) structure by germanium enrichment of a silicon germanium (SiGe) layer (38) supported by silicon oxide layer (39), comprises forming the initial layer of monocrystalline SiGe doped on a support substrate (31), forming pores in the initial layer of doped SiGe, forming a first layer of continuous monocrystalline silicon on the porous SiGe layer, forming a monocrystalline SiGe layer for germanium enrichment on the silicon layer, forming a second layer of monocrystalline silicon on the SiGe layer for germanium enrichment, forming a mesa in the stack constituted by the first silicon layer and second silicon layer, depositing protection spacers (36) on the flanks of the mesa, and oxidizing the SiGe porous layer to obtain the silicon oxide layer doped by germanium. The silicon oxide layer is doped with germanium by oxidation of a porous layer of SiGe. The concentration of germanium in the silicon oxide layer is such that: the concentration lowers the flowing temperature of the silicon oxide layer below the oxidation temperature for enrichment of germanium in the SiGe layer; and the molar percentage of germanium oxide with respect to the composition of the doped silicon oxide layer is 4-13 m/o. The porous SiGe layer is obtained by electrochemical etching of a doped SiGe initial layer in a hydrofluoric acid solution. An independent claim is included for a semiconductor structure.
