Inventor: DAI JUN
IPC: H01L29/78
Filed: 2001-12-13
Abstract: An electrostatic discharge protection structure (10) is provided with a dielectric gate
(56), source and drain contacts (44,48), and a semiconductor substrate (40). The semiconductor
substrate (40) is of a first conductivity type having the dielectric gate (56) disposed partially
on its surface. The source and drain contacts (44,48) are connected to source and drain
diffusion regions (64,66) of a second conductivity type separated by the dielectric gate (56).
Deep source and drain wells (60,62) of the second conductivity type respectively disposed
under the source and drain diffusion regions (64,66) define a channel region (50) of the first
conductivity type. The channel region (50) is doped so that the surface breakdown voltage is
exceeded before the subsurface depletion region (72) punch-through voltage is exceeded between
the deep source and drain wells (60,62) upon an electrostatic discharge at the drain
contact (48).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the assessment of quantity and quality parameters of biological particles in a liquid analyte material. The method comprises applying a volume of a liquid sample to an exposing domain from which exposing domain electromagnetic signals from the sample in the domain can pass to the exterior, and exposing, onto an array of active detection elements such as CCD-elements, a spatial representation of electromagnetic signals having passed from the domain, the representation being detectable as an intensity by individual active detection elements, under conditions permitting processing of the intensities detected by the array of detection elements during the exposure in such a manner that representation of electromagnetic signals from the biological particles are identified as distinct from representations of electromagnetic signals from background signals. The size of the volume of the liquid sample is sufficiently large to permit the assessment of the quantity and quality parameters to fullfil a predetermined requirement to the statistical quality of the assessment based on substantially one exposure.

IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 2001-05-23
Abstract: A block-parallel decoding algorithm and corresponding decoder architecture utilizes
a set of interconnected processing nodes configured in the form of a probability dependency
graph. The probability dependency graph is characterized at least in part by a code used to
encode blocks of bits or symbols, and the processing nodes implement a block-parallel
decoding process for blocks of the bits or symbols to be decoded. The probability
dependency graph may be, for example, a bipartite probability dependency graph which
includes a set of  N  variable nodes and a set of  T  check nodes, with one of the  N  variable
nodes being associated with each of  N  bits or symbols of a given block to be decoded. A
single iteration of the block-parallel decoding process produces within the variable nodes
an updated estimate for every bit or symbol in the given block, and may produce within the
variable nodes an a-posteriori probability associated with the decoded bit or symbol for a
soft-decision decoder. As another example, the probability dependency graph may be in the
form of a directional probability dependency graph with multiple levels of nodes including
an initial level, at least one intermediate level and a final level, arranged such that
calculations can be performed at each level without sequential intra-block dependencies.
The outputs of the nodes of the final level give an estimate of the transmitted bits or
symbols for the given block, and may provide an estimate of the corresponding a-posteriori
probabilities for a soft-decision decoder.

Abstract: A predictively-coded object-based picture signal representing a group of pictures is transcoded into a predictively-coded block-based picture signal representing the group of pictures by extracting a coded scene descriptor and coded object descriptors from the predictively-coded object-based picture signal. The coded scene descriptor is decoded to generate a scene descriptor. The coded object descriptors are partially decoded to generate respective partially-decoded object descriptors. The decoding extracts coding information that describes the predictive coding of the coded object descriptors. In response to the scene descriptor, a frame of a partially-encoded block-based picture signal representing one of the pictures as a current picture is generated from the partially-decoded object descriptors. Finally, a frame of the predictively-coded block-based picture signal representing the current picture is generated by predictively coding the partially-coded block-based picture signal to a uniform coding state in response to the coding information.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for generating television program recommendations based on a similarity metric. Thus, the invention recommends television programs that are similar to one or more shows identified by a user. A similarity metric is computed between each program in a user-specified selected set and each program in an identified time interval. The selected set comprises one or more programs currently of interest to the user. The present invention allows a viewer to easily select one or more programs that the viewer currently finds attractive. The similarity metric is a sum of weighted scores for each matching attribute between programs in the selected set and programs in the identified time interval. If the selected set contains more than one program, an average score can be utilized, or the maximum value to any program in the selected set. Shows that are actually selected for viewing are observed and the weightings, wi, assigned to each matching program attribute are adjusted, so that over time, the similarity metric, SM, more accurately reflects the viewer's idea of 'similar shows'.

Abstract: High quality epitaxial layers of oxide can be grown overlying large silicon wafers by first growing an accommodating buffer layer on a silicon wafer. The accommodating buffer layer is a layer of monocrystalline oxide spaced apart from the silicon wafer by an amorphous interface layer of silicon oxide. The amorphous intermediate layer dissipates strain and permits the growth of a high quality monocrystalline oxide accommodating buffer layer. Any lattice mismatch between the accommodating buffer layer and the underlying silicon substrate is taken care of by the amorphous intermediate layer. Waveguides may be formed of high quality monocrystalline material atop the monocrystalline buffer layer. The waveguides can suitably be formed to modulate the wave. Monolithic integration of oxide based electro-optic devices with III-V based photonics and Si circuitry is fully realized.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine (2) provided with a starter motor sequentially
performs combustion of fuel in a plurality of cylinders (#1 - #4). Each cylinder is
provided with an intake port (7) and a fuel injector (8) to inject fuel in the intake
port (7) and repeatedly performs an intake stroke, compression stroke, expansion
stroke and an exhaust stroke. A sensor (9, 11) generates a signal identifying a
cylinder in a specific position in a specific stroke and the controller (1) executes a
cylinder-stroke identification in response to the signal. Upon the first execution
of the cylinder-stroke identification when the engine is cranked, a fuel injection is
performed for a cylinder in the intake stroke and for a cylinder in the exhaust
stroke simultaneously so as to ensure the fuel supply amount required for the first
combustion in each cylinder.
