Title: Method for performing acoustic matching in a speech recognition system
IPC: G10L15/14
Filed: 1986-03-27
Granted: 1992-09-02
Abstract: Method and apparatus for statistically determining in a vocabulary of words at least one word which has a relatively high probability of having generated a string of incoming labels produced in response to a speech input. Each word is represented as a sequence of phonetic elements (including conventional phones) wherein the statistical representations of the phonetic elements are simplified by approximations. In a first approximation, the actual probabilities that a given phonetic element generates a given label (at any of various transitions ti between states Sj in the given phonetic element) are replaced by a single specific value which is no less than the maximum actual probability for the given label in the given phonetic element. A second approximation provides that the probability of a given phonetic element to generate any length of labels between a minimum and a maximum is uniform. A third approximation provides that only a maximum number of labels be examined in forming a match value for any phonetic element.

Puisqu'on utilise un organe de prise d'image à semi-conducteurs sensible aux infra-rouges, l'éclairage obtenu par un organe d'émission de rayons infra-rouges peut être utilisé pour prendre une photo du visiteur sans que celui-ci le remarque. Il est possible de photographier le visiteur la nuit également sans lui donner une impression désagréable. Il est possible de faire fonctionner l'organe d'émission de rayons infra-rouges pendant une durée prédéterminée après manipulation du commutateur d'appel, ou seulement pendant la durée d'un appel à partir du moment ou le commutateur d'appel est manipulé jusqu'au moment ou le combiné de l'interphone principal est remis dans sa position initiale ou lorsque un organe d'émission de lumière est actionné ou bien lorsque l'éclairage sur la surface de l'objet est insuffisant, pour empêcher un gaspillage de l'énergie électrique. De plus, il est possible de synchroniser l'opération d'émission de lumière de l'organe d'émission de rayons infra-rouges avec les signaux vidéo de la caméra afin d'obtenir un éclairage qui permet de prendre une photo sans scintillement.

Abstract: A dispersion of air or oxygen in liquid sewage and/or or sludge is admitted tangentially into the lower portion of an upright vessel wherein the dispersion rises and is compelled to flow through eccentric flow restricting passages in several superimposed horizontal partitions so that the dispersion is repeatedly induced to form a turbulent helical flow. The rising dispersion flows around a tube which returns a portion of the dispersion into the lower part of the vessel and causes the remaining portion to overflow into a receptacle having an outlet at a level below the open top of the tube. The dispersion which descends in the tube is readmitted tangentially into one or more chambers which are separated from each other by the partitions in the vessel and communicate with each other by way of the respective flow restricting passages.
