Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un système et à un procédé de commande (400) permettant d'acheminer une tension efficace constante vers une charge (402) comprenant une boucle de commande externe (404) destinée à surveiller une variable caractéristique du système et une boucle de commande interne (406) destinée à maintenir l'électricité acheminée vers la charge comme étant fonction de l'électricité d'entrée reçue. On prévoit un modulateur de largeur à impulsion (PWM) (409) relié aux deux boucles de commandes chargé d'envoyer une impulsion représentant un cycle de service non régulé de tension d'entrée. La loupe de commande interne compare le cycle de service de la tension d'entrée au cycle de tension de la représentation de l'impulsion et génère un signal de commande vers le modulateur d'après les résultats de la comparaison.

Abstract: A system for providing and updating a portable patient memory card and for prescription fulfillment. The system includes a modifiable personal memory card (PMC) for the patient which includes the patient's personal information, physician information, pharmacy information, medical history, insurer information and authentification code. A PMC reader/writer presents the stored memory to a personal digital assistant (PDA) during a medical examination by the physician. The physician may then update the stored memory to include new prescriptions and additional medical history. Another PMC reader/writer in the physician's office electronically transfers the updated stored memory to a central host server. The host server receives and stores the updated stored memory and electronically transmits a prescription fulfillment request for new prescriptions to a selected pharmacy and electronically transmits a confirmation back to the office computer when fulfilled. Insurer information may also be electronically transferred from the host server to a designated insurer.

Abstract: As anti-RNA polymerase (RNAP) antibodies are detected
with high frequency in patients suffering from cutaneous
scleroderma where skin sclerosis progresses rapidly,
supervenes scleroderma renal crisis at a high rate, and
associates with clinical entities whose prognoses are
extremely bad, it is intended to provide a convenient method
of detecting an anti-RNAP antibodies, which is extremely
useful in diagnosing and classifying clinical entities of
scleroderma, and predicting organ failure, in particular
scleroderma renal crisis. In order to identify an epitope
recognized commonly by anti-RNAP antibodies, the full
length of RPC62 and a partial fragment of RPC155, that are
2 subunits of 62-kDa and 155-kDa of RNAP III, are expressed
in Escherichia coli as recombinant proteins, and the
reactivities to sera positive and negative to anti-RNAP
antibody from patients suffering from scleroderma are
examined by immunoblotting method to confirm that an epitope
recognized by anti-RNAP antibodies in the sera from the
patients suffering from scleroderma exists in 891 to 1020
amino acid residues of RPC155.

Abstract: This catalyst for purifying exhaust gases can suppress an active
ingredient, such as an alkali metal, which reacts with a substrate from
moving to the substrate, thereby preventing a decrease in strength such
as thermal shock resistance of the substrate. In production, first, a first
oxide layer composed mainly of an oxide which has a high reactability
with the active ingredient is formed on the substrate. Next, a second
oxide layer composed mainly of an oxide which has a low reactability
with the active ingredient is formed on the first oxide layer. Then, a
catalyst layer loaded at least with a noble metal and the active
ingredient is formed on the second oxide layer. This second oxide layer
suppresses transfer of the active ingredient and some active ingredient
which has passed through the second oxide layer is caught by the first
oxide layer owing to its reaction.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for
automatic classification of audio signals. 
     Such an apparatus comprises:
     signal input means (3) for supplying audio signals;   audio signal fragmenting means (4) for partitioning audio signals
supplied by the signal input means (3) into audio fragments of a
predetermined length;   feature extracting means (5) for analysing acoustic characteristics
of the audio signals comprised in the audio fragments; and   classifying means (6) for discriminating the audio fragments
provided by the audio signal fragmenting means (4) into a predetermined
audio class based on predetermined audio class classsifying models
(71,72,73) by using acoustic characteristics of the audio signals
comprised in the audio fragments, wherein a predetermined audio class
classifying model (71,72,73) is provided for each audio class and each
audio class represents a respective kind of audio signals comprised in
the corresponding audio fragment.   
     It is a disadvantage that singing voice included in the audio signal
frequently is misclassified as speech, particularly when the singing
voice is the dominant signal component. The reason is that singing voice
is more similar to speech than to music. 
     To solve this problem, according to the present invention an
individual predetermined audio class classifying model (71,72,73) is
provided for at least each audio class "speech", "music" and "singing
voice". 
     Furthermore, the above disadvantage is overcome by the inventive
method and the inventive software product.
