Abstract: In a word, or speech, recognition system for decoding a vocabulary word from outputs selected from an alphabet of outputs in response to a communicated word input wherein each word in the vocabulary is represented by a baseform of at least one probabilistic finite state model and wherein each probabilistic model has transition probability items and output probability items and wherein a value is stored for each of at least some probability items, the present invention relates to apparatus and method for determining probability values for probability items by biassing at least some of the stored values to enhance the likelihood that outputs generated in response to communication of a known word input are produced by the baseform for the known word relative to the respective likelihood of the generated outputs being produced by the baseform for at least one other word. Specifically, the current values of counts - from which probability items are derived - are adjusted by uttering a known word and determining how often probability events occur relative to (a) the model corresponding to the known uttered "correct" word and (b) the model of at least one other "incorrect" word. The current count values are increased based on the event occurrences relating to the correct word and are reduced based on the event occurrences relating to the incorrect word or words.

IPC: G06T15/83
Filed: 1987-08-05
Abstract: A method and apparatus for efficiently determining shading intensities for objects defined by a plurality of polygons that are to be displayed in two dimensions. Shading intensities are developed by employing the vertex normals of the polygons and interpolating the normals for the pixels within the polygons through a power series approximation. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, a two dimensional Taylor series approximation is employed (110, 120) to obtain intensity values. An interpolator (100) develops vector parameters for each polygon (100-140), and subsequent processors (150,160) evaluate the intensity of each pixel by applying the vector parameters to the pixel coordinates.
