Abstract: A circumscribing rectangle is obtained for a black continuous image part using a two-tone image signal. If it is determined (in S105) that the image part is possibly one which is obtained as a result of rotating the object, lengths of sides of the image part are compared with threshold values (in S106 and S108). If it is determined (in S105) that the image part is not one which is obtained as a result of rotating the object, the height and horizontal length of the circumscribing rectangle are compared with the threshold values (in S107 and S108). Thus, it is determined (in S115 and S116) whether or not the image part is identical to the object. An RGB chromaticity histogram is produced for each of small regions of an input color image (in S202A). Each of the chromaticity histograms of the small regions is compared with reference ones (in S202A). As a result of the comparison, an identification number of the reference histogram having the highest similarity to that of the small region among those constituting the input image is given to the small region (in S204). A histogram of the identification numbers thus is produced for the input color image (in S204). The thus-produced histogram is used to determine (in S205) which one of a plurality of objects is identical to the input color image.

Abstract: Buried type element separating trenches suitable for microminiaturization of semiconductor circuits can be formed. In addition, such defects as to generate electric field concentration and gate oxide film leakage due the shape of the element separating trenches can be prevented effectively. The method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprises the steps of: forming a first material layer (3) and a second material layer (5) in sequence on a surface of a semiconductor substrate (1); forming a first opening on the first material layer (3) and a second opening in the second material layer (5) (the first opening being larger than the second opening); forming an element separating trench (7) under the second opening in the substrate (1) by using the second material layer (5) as a mask; removing the second material layer (5); depositing a filling material (9) on the element separating trench (7), the substrate (1) and the first material layer (3); and etching back the filling material (9) by using the first material layer (3) as a stopper. In the above-mentioned process, the filling material remains over and about the element separating trench so as to cover the edge portion between the substrate surface and the separating trench, thus eliminating the edge portion which causes defects.

Abstract: In recording a received image in an image communication apparatus, there is discriminated whether the received image is to be recorded as a color image or as a monochromatic image, then determined, according to the result of the discrimination, which of plural recording members is to be supplied, also the mutually different plural recording members are selectively supplied according to the determination, and the received image is recorded on thus supplied recording member. In this manner it is rendered possible to preferentially select an optimum recording member for monochromatic image recording and another for color image recording, thereby improving the image quality in case of color image recording and reducing the running cost in case of monochromatic image recording.

Abstract: A charge transfer apparatus which is capable of reliably improving the transfer efficiency of an output gate section while preventing the occurrence of coupling to output waveforms. A two-phase driving-type charge transfer apparatus is constructed as follows. Transfer clock φH2 used for driving the stage one prior to the final stage of a charge transfer section is divided at a predetermined ratio through the use of two resistors. This causes the generation of drive pulse φOG in phase with and of a smaller amplitude than transfer clock φH2. A gate electrode of an output gate section is driven by this drive pulse φOG.

Abstract: The present invention is a process for operating equilibrium controlled reactions in continuous mode wherein a feedstock is reacted in a plurality of reactors containing an admixture of a desired process catalyst and an adsorbent to form a product which is selectively adsorbed by the adsorbent and an admixture containing a product which is withdrawn from the reactor. A series of separation steps is used to desorb the product which is selectively adsorbed by the adsorbent and to prepare the reactor for a subsequent process cycle. The process utilizes a novel series of adsorption and desorption steps to collect the less selectively adsorbed product in substantially pure form under relatively constant flow rate at feedstock pressure.

Abstract: The method involves feeding fuel from a low pressure region into a high pressure region in which the fuel pressure is detected by a pressure sensor and is regulated by a pressure regulator. If there is a defect in the pressure regulating device, the fuel pressure is controlled by influencing the flow of fuel in the low pressure region. The flow of fuel in the low pressure region is interrupted if the pressure in the high pressure region rises above a predefined level. The flow is released when the pressure in the high pressure region falls below a second predefined level.

Abstract: In an inductive flow meter, efficiency is improved and the energy required to excite the magnetic field generation system significantly reduced by an arrangement whereby in the cross-sectional area of the flow channel in which the electrodes exposed to the flowing medium face one another, the pole elements of the magnetic field generating system are set into recesses (9, 10) in the measurement channel unit (1) which contains the measurement channel section (2). This ensures that the pole elements act on the flowing medium from a short distance and permeate the medium with the magnetic field. This arrangement results in a design which is very precise and obviates the need for balancing and adjustment operations and is suitable for serial production.
