Title: Method for segmenting and estimating a moving object motion
Inventor: CHANG GYU-HWAN DAEWOO ELECTRON
IPC: H04N19/136
Filed: 1995-07-17
Abstract: A method for use in an object-oriented analysis-synthesis coder, for segmenting an image of a current frame into moving objects and describing each motion of the moving objects with a set of motion parameters, which comprises the steps of: (a) comparing the current frame with a preceding frame to detect a motion vector field; (b) sliding window blocks on the motion vector field, and computing the degree of homogeneity for each of the window blocks to produce a seed block; (c) determining a set of initial values for the set of motion parameters based on the seed block; (d) evaluating whether each motion vector contained in and around the seed block is describable with the set of initial values or not, to thereby detect a revised region; (e) determining a set of revised values for the set of motion parameters from the revised region; (f) evaluating whether each motion vector contained in and around the revised region is describable with the set of revised values or not, to thereby detect a newly revised region; and (g) repeating the steps (e) and (f) until the difference between a current revised region and a previous revised region is less than a predetermined value, to thereby determine a set of final values for the set of motion parameters.

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to present an input and display apparatus for handwritten characters capable of freely editing input handwritten characters. A handwritten character entered on a touch panel (8) by using a pen (11) is registered as one stroke data. The registered one stroke data is divided in two stroke data by using the pen (11), or two stroke data are combined into one stroke data. By combination of stroke data division and combination, partial deletion in stroke data, blank insertion in stroke data, and insertion of other stroke data into stroke data are realized.

Abstract: Un système de génération de clés fonctionne à l'aide d'un appareil d'admission où est produit un nombre exclusif s'utilisant avec des machines fonctionnant grâce à un NIP (numéro d'identification personnel) ou avec des systèmes de cryptographie à clé publique, nombre obtenu par la manipulation d'informations relatives aux empreintes digitales d'un abonné. Un filtre est ensuite généré en fonction à la fois de la transformation de Fourier des empreintes digitales de cet abonné et du nombre exclusif. Ce filtre est enregistré sur une carte d'abonné; ce dernier, lorsqu'il veut générer sa clé, introduit sa carte dans un lecteur de carte d'un appareil et place son ou ses doigts sur un dispositif de lecture d'empreintes digitales. L'appareil produit, à partir de l'introduction des empreintes digitales, une transformation de Fourier optique dont le signal est envoyé à un modulateur spatial de lumière programmé avec les informations du filtre provenant de la carte. Une transformation inverse est produite à partir du signal filtré et utilisé pour générer à nouveau la clé qui sera utilisée comme NIP, dans un dispositif fonctionnant grâce à un NIP, ou comme une clé privée pour système de cryptographie à clé publique.

Abstract: An integrated introducer and drive rod system used to position and attach a spiral-shaped, biological needle probe to a fetus during labor and delivery. The system ensures that the sharp, pointed, probe (typically, a fetal spiral electrode) remains protected in a retracted position inside the introducer until attachment to the fetal scalp is desired. The flexible drive rod of the system has a "C"-shaped safety ring with an outside diameter slightly less than the inner diameter of the introducer at a point on the introducer; a "C"-shaped radial web with an outside diameter only slightly larger than the inner diameter of the introducer creating an interference fit between the drive rod and the introducer; or a "C"-shaped segmented rib that engages the rear end of the introducer. The introducer has an inner diameter sized to create an interference fit with the drive rod; a forward interior wall with an inside diameter slightly less than the outside diameter of the safety ring; a ramp on the front end of the introducer; a longitudinal slot disposed along its entire length; or a combination of one or more of these structures. In combination, the structures of the drive rod and introducer resist but (upon exertion of a predetermined force on the handle of the drive rod) allow translation of the drive rod within the introducer.

Abstract: A uniquely programmed computer system, computer-implemented method, and computer readable memory embodying computer-readable detail logic direct a computer system to provide viewing and adjustment of the default state (i.e., operation) of a desktop icon. The default state is performed when the desktop icon is dropped on a target icon. Therefore, if the default state is "copy", then the selected object icon is automatically copied to the target object icon when the selected icon is dropped on the target icon. The computer-implemented method includes the steps of determining if a visual state indicator option is "ON" and, if so, drawing the desktop icon(s) on the display in such a manner as to indicate to the user/viewer the default state of the icon.

Abstract: Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum Gewinnen von fehlerbehaftete Schleifen in einem mehrphasigen elektrischen Energieversorgungsnetz kennzeichnenden Signalen mittels Impedanzanregung, bei dem nach Überprüfung auf Erdfehler mittels Vergleich der Beträge der bei der Impedanzanregung gewonnenen Impedanzwerte die die fehlerbehafteten Schleifen kennzeichnenden Signale gebildet werden. Um bei einem solchen Verfahren mit großer Sicherheit alle die Schleifen zu eliminieren, die trotz anfänglicher Anregung tatsächlich nicht fehlerbehaftet sind, werden erfindungsgemäß bei Ermittlung ausschließlich erdfehlerfreier Schleifen durch Vergleich von errechneten virtuellen Impedanzen (ULx-Ly/ILx; ULx-Ly/ILy) mit bei der Impedanzanregung gemessenen Impedanzen (ZLx-Ly) die tatsächlich fehlerbehafteten Schleifen ermittelt; bei Ermittlung mindestens einer Schleife mit Erdfehler werden durch einen Vergleich der Beträge von aus den Impedanzwerten der als fehlerbehaftet erfaßten Leiter-Erde-Schleifen gebildeten virtuellen Impedanzwerten (ZVLxE) mit dem kleinsten virtuellen Impedanzwert (ZVLxE) fehlerfreie Leiter-Erde-Schleifen erkannt und eliminiert. Zur Weiterverarbeitung der Impedanzwerte der übrigen nicht eliminierten und als fehlerbehaftet ermittelten Schleifen werden im Hinblick auf die Anzahl von gleichzeitig festgestellten Leiter-Erde-Schleifen unterschiedlich ausgestaltete Prüfverfahren (23, 24, 25) verwendet.

Abstract: The spacing control has a detector for monitoring the spacing of a vehicle from the vehicle in front. The measured spacing is compared with a threshold value calculated by taking into account the mode of driving and the road speed. A warning is given to enable the driver to slow before the automatic retardation is applied. The driving mode is identified by the type of braking and accelerating applied by the driver. The control system computes an optimum spacing and applies the warning if the measured spacing drops below a set fraction of the reference value. The relative acceleration between the two vehicle is also taken into account.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multiprocessor
computer system having comprising a plurality of
processors and a memory system including a system
memory shared by the plurality of processors together
with data cache memories, at least one data cache
memory associated with each one of said processors. 
The computer system employs a directory based cache
coherency scheme for maintaining consistency between
lines of data residing in the shared system memory and
lines of data residing in the data cache memories. The
coherency scheme depends on storing line status
information for lines of the shared system memory. The
provision for storing line status information
comprises a state cache memory associated with the
shared system memory to cache the memory line status
information. The state cache memory is sized to store
status information for a portion only of the memory
lines in the shared system memory (e.g. one sixteenth

can be a direct mapped cache.
