Abstract: L'invention porte sur des services de vote et autres services de correspondance téléphonique passant par un réseau téléphonique public commuté. La solution de l'invention utilise les propriétés d'équipements d'automation vocale et d'une base de données. Le service de vote comprend deux parties: le service de vote proprement dit et une interface de gestion. Le service de vote proprement dit fait partie du service que l'utilisateur final appelle pour lui transmettre son vote, tandis que l'interface de gestion fait partie du service au moyen duquel l'organisateur du service de vote peut modifier le contenu du service de vote, enregistrer les instructions du service, vérifier les résultats des votes et écouter, effacer ou sauvegarder les messages vocaux laissés par les utilisateurs finaux. L'organisateur du service de vote peut par exemple gérer le service au moyen d'un téléphone usuel, ce qui permet de mettre en oeuvre un service de vote de manière simple et rapide.

Abstract: An image analyzing unit analyzes an input image, and
determines an embedding intensity level for an electronic
watermark to be embedded in units of a pixel of the input image.
The image analyzing unit then outputs the embedding intensity
information to an electronic watermark pattern embedding unit

Abstract: The present invention is an imaging system that includes sensor logic, an image
processor receiving and transmitting data to the sensor logic, a reverse bias controller,
and a pixel array having hysteresis or image lag. 
In the present invention, one embodiment to minimize lag is to eliminate
the charge contributed during the scanning period and maintaining an
optimum reverse voltage at the photodiode node. These actions minimize
the trapping of electrons and holes at the defect sites. The reverse
bias condition lowers the charge capture rate at defect sites by pulling
the charge to positive and negative terminals immediately after
illumination induced electron and hole generation.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a wiring pattern

wiring pattern by ultrasonic welding. The wiring pattern
is formed such that when the semiconductor chip is
disposed on the wiring pattern, a range shared between
the wiring pattern and positional variation regions of
portions to be bonded of the semiconductor chip
accompanied by the ultrasonic welding becomes as wide as
possible. Such a semiconductor device makes it possible
to ensure a sufficient positional deviation range of a
wiring pattern with respect to a positional deviation in
each bump type electrode, and hence to cope with a multipin
structure for flip-chip mounting and to improve both
an initial bonding characteristic and a mounting
reliability.

Abstract: A call center includes a recording/playback unit for recording audible
signals received (during an outgoing call) from a remote party location, while a
call classifier unit within the call center processes the audible signals. A call
processing unit places a call to a remote party location via a communication
network to attempt to elicit a desired response from the remote party. The call
classifier then processes audible signals received from the remote party location
to determine whether or not the call was answered by a live party. The audible
signals are recorded by the recording/playback unit and are placed in a queue
while the call classifier processes the audible signals. If the call classifier
determines that the call was answered by a live party, the call processing unit
completes a path between the recording/playback unit and a local agent at the call
center, and the recorded audible signals from the remote party are played back to
the agent in an accelerated fashion. Meanwhile, the queue is being filled with
incoming audible signals at normal speed. Once the queue of recorded audible
signals has been emptied, the call processing unit establishes a realtime path
between the remote party location and the local agent. If the call classifier
determines that the call was not answered by a live party, the call processing unit
will terminate the call.
