摘要:
A Method for representing images for pattern classification extends the conventional Isomap method with Fisher Linear Discriminant (FLD) or Kernel Fisher Linear Discriminant (KFLD) for classification. The extended Isomap method estimates the geodesic distance of data points corresponding to images for pattern classification, and uses pairwise geodesic distances as feature vectors. The method applies FLD to the feature vectors to find an optimal projection direction to maximize the distances between cluster centers of the feature vectors. The method may apply KFLD to the feature vectors instead of FLD.

A method of writing a photo-induced structure into a photosensitive material substrate, the method comprising the steps of creating an interference pattern utilising at least two light beams, exposing the substrate to the interference pattern for photo-inducing material changes in the substrate, and creating an irregularity in the interference pattern by controlling a wavefront of at least one of the beams, for creating a functional defect in the photo-induced structure.

The system comprises a computer for searching a parts-order database based on shipping destinations to prepare respective shipping instructions for each of the shipping destinations in order to ship the parts, a hand-held terminal device comprising a display screen for displaying the shipping instructions and a barcode reader connected to the hand-held terminal device. The system further comprises a printer for printing, based on one of the shipping instructions, a barcode representing a serial number or another unique number on each of labels to be attached to a plurality of cartons which are used for packing the parts and a crate for containing those cartons.

The swing arm suspension has such a structure that a pivot plate (8) is provided with a pivot shaft (11), a swing arm (13) having a rear end portion supporting a rear wheel (12) is swingably mounted at a front end portion to the pivot shaft (11), and a cushion unit (14) is mounted at an upper end portion to the swing arm (13) and connected at a lower end portion through a link mechanism (15) to a portion of the pivot plate (8) lower in level than the pivot shaft (11). In this swing arm suspension, an upper portion of the swing arm is provided with an exposing portion (80A) for exposing a cushion arrangement space H to an upper space K above the swing arm (13). At least one of a subtank (57) and an adjuster (56) as functional components of the cushion unit (14) is located in the exposing portion (80A).

Embodiments of the invention provide a strategy for computing the motions of a mobile robot (303) operating in an obstacle-in the environment or knowing the trajectory of a target (301) tracked by the robot (303). Embodiments of the invention provide an algorithm that governs the motion of the observer robot (303) based on measurements of the target's position and the location of obstacles in the environment. The algorithm computes a description of the geometric arrangement between the target (301) and the observer's visibility region (309a-309e) produced by the obstacles and computes a continuous control rule using this description. Embodiments of the invention employ an escape-path tree data structure to categorize the target's possible modes of escaping from the observer robot's (301) sensors and the use the escape-path tree to determine the target's shortest escape path.
摘要:
A method of providing a pet with a benefit relating to effective assimilation of a lipid is described wherein the pet is administered, as a part of, or in addition to its regular diet, an edible composition that contains an ingredient that maintains, promotes or enhances the capacity of the pet to digest lipid efficiently. The invention extends to compositions for use in promoting lipid assimilation in pets, particularly senior or elderly pets. The compositions include pancreatic, liver and intestinal mucosa function-promoters. In embodiments, the liver function-promoter may be selected from taurine, emulsifiers, vitamins, minerals, glutathione and glutathione promoters.
摘要:
Ein Betriebsgerät für Lampen, insbesondere ein elektronisches Vorschaltgerät für Gasentladunglampen, weist einen Eingang (18a, 18b) zum Anschluss eines Lichtsensors (20) auf, wobei in den Lichtsensor-Anschluss (18a, 18b) ein Widerstand (4) zur Adress-Codierung des Betriebsgeräts (EVG) eingesetzt ist. Eine Steuereinheit (12) in dem Betriebsgerät (EVG) ist dazu ausgelegt, einen zeitlich sich nicht verändernden Widerstandwert am Lichtsensor-Anschluss (18a, 18b) als Adress-Codierung zu interpretieren.
