Abstract: Methods for inducing a population of T cells to proliferate by activating the population of T cells and stimulating an accessory molecule on the surface of the T cells with a ligand which binds the accessory molecule are described. T cell proliferation occurs in the absence of exogenous growth factors or accessory cells. T cell activation is accomplished by stimulating the T cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex or the CD2 surface protein. To induce proliferation of an activated population T cells, an accessory molecule on the surface of the T cells, such as CD28, is stimulated with a ligand which binds the accessory molecule. The T cell population expanded by the method of the invention can be genetically transduced and used for immunotherapy or can be used in methods of diagnosis.

Title: User selectable multiple threshold criteria for voice recognition
Inventor: COHRS PAUL WESLEY
IPC: G10L15/20
Filed: 1996-07-03
Granted: 2001-02-13
Abstract: A method and apparatus for speech recognition in which a single criterion or set of criteria is selected manually by the user, from plural classes of recognition criteria. The stored classes of recognition criteria include a default class optimized for an average user in normal conditions, at least one class having a probability of recognition greater than said default class, and at least one class having a probability of recognition less than said default class. Accordingly, the user may select that class of criteria which provides the best results for him or her, as measured by greater accuracy (fewer false positive detections) or fewer instances of non-rejection.      An utterance is compared to one or more models of speech to determine a similarity metric for each such comparison. The model of speech which most closely matches the utterance is determined based on the one or more similarity metrics. The similarity metric corresponding to the most closely matching model of speech is analyzed to determine whether the similarity metric satisfies the criteria of the user-selected class. The present application has application to many problems in speech recognition including isolated word recognition and command spotting. Illustrative embodiments of the invention in the context of telecommunications instruments are provided.

Title: Continuously variable transmission apparatus
Inventor: JOHNSTON THOMAS A
IPC: F16H47/08
Filed: 1994-03-09
Granted: 2004-03-16
Abstract: Continuously variable transmission apparatus (12, 80) utilizing either a dual viscous clutch (86) or an impeller type hy- drodynamic torque converter (40). In one embodiment (fig. 1), the hydrodynamic torque converter (40) is operatively con- nected to an input shau (16) by intercon- nection to splitter (22), planet carrier (36) and an output shaft (18). The hydrody- namic torque converter (40) and splitter (22) is operable through a clutch assembly (38), an output planetary gear set (24) and a viscous coupling (74) between the carrier (73) and the ring gear (76) of the plane- tary gear set (24) to continuously change the speed between the input shaft (16) and output shaft (18). In the other embodiment (fig. 2), a dual stage viscous type coupling (82) is connected to the input shaft (16) through a planetary splitter (42) and to the output shaft (18) through a planetary gear set (84). The planet carrier (96) is con- nected to the sun gear (62) and the ring gear (91) in which the sun gear (62) and the ring gear (91) are viscously coupled for continuously varying the output shaft (18) rotation.
Patent CA-2192476-C (CA)
Inventor: BOLAND BERNHARD
IPC: A61C17/24

Granted: 1999-09-14
Abstract: The invention is directed to an electrically powered dental cleansing apparatus (1) in which a cleansing implement (19) is coupled to a drive sleeve (11) and adapted to be rotated about a longitudinal axis (4). According to the invention, the coupling is effected by means of a resilient element, in particular a spring (21) which includes a slip coupling (27) and/or a buffer zone (28). Under normal conditions, the slip coupling (27) provides a non-rotative connection between the drive sleeve (11) and the cleansing implement (19). However, in the event of the cleansing implement (19) seizing in an interproximal space, for example, the slip coupling (27) will slip, thus avoiding potential damage. The buffer zone (28) acts to prevent displacement of the cleansing implement (19)--although intended by the user--in cases where, for example, the cleansing implement is positioned against a tooth surface rather than against an interproximal space.

Abstract: A steering control system for a tracked vehicle includes an engine driven variable displacement steering pump which drives a hydraulic motor.  The motor drives a differential drive mechanism which drives left and right track drive wheels.  An electronic control unit, as a function of steering wheel position, vehicle speed, engine speed, forward/reverse vehicle direction and other parameters, generates a command signal which controls the swashplate of the steering pump.  The system operates so that, for a given position of the steering wheel, a turn curvature of the vehicle decreases as vehicle speed increases, wherein turn curvature is inversely proportional to a radius of turn.  This is accomplished by calculating a turn speed value equal to the vehicle speed multiplied by a ratio of a nominal engine speed divided by sensed engine speed, and by calculating the command signal equal to a steering gain value multiplied by a ratio of the turn speed value divided by a nominal vehicle speed value.

Abstract: A composition of matter useful for strippable shields for electric power cables comprises: a base polymer which is a copolymer of ethylene with a mono-unsaturated ester; conductive carbon black in an amount to give the composition an electrical resistivity below 500 .OMEGA.m; and as adhesion-controlling additive, a copolymer of ethylene with a mono-unsaturated ester containing from 0.5 to 2% by weight of side-chains each of which comprises an inflexible ring structure bonded to a backbone carbon atom of the copolymer with at most five atoms interposed between them. The compositions have the advantage of being less rubbery than current strippable-screen compositions and can be made successfully with copolymers of lower ester content.
