摘要:
A method for using speech analysis to detect speech pathologies can begin with registration of a patient with a speech-based health monitor. A speech segment baseline representing an initial state of the patient's speech system can be established for the patient. When prompted, the patient can submit a speech segment representing a current state of the patient's speech system to the speech-based health monitor. The speech-based health monitor can analyze the submitted speech segment using the established speech segment baseline and/or a speech segment history that comprises speech segments previously submitted by the patient. Based upon said analysis, satisfaction of a health alert definition can be determined. A health alert definition can define an action performed by the speech-based health monitor when its associated triggering conditions are satisfied. The action associated with the at least one satisfied health alert definition can then be executed.

The invention provides a digital modulator system for use in a fractional-N frequency synthesizer, said system comprising: a first pipelined modulator configured to receive a digital signal via a bus signal; a second pipelined modulator configured to receive a part of said digital signal; and said system is adapted to split the bus signal by passing least significant bits (LSBs) of said digital signal through the second modulator, combining the output of said second modulator with the most significant bits (MSBs) of said digital signal, and adapted to pass the combined signal through said first pipelined modulator. The combination of bus-splitting and pipelining in the modulator system is configured to provide an output signal to maximize the update rate of a multi-modulus divider of said fractional-N frequency synthesizer.

摘要:
A system for generating video images and corresponding audio of multiple parties engaged in a video conference is provided. The system includes multiple voice transducers for receiving voice signals from the multiple parties and a video camera for capturing moving images of one of the multiple parties who is speaking. The system further includes a processor in communication with the voice transducers and video camera. The processor determines respective distances and angles between the party who is speaking and each of the multiple voice transducers. Additionally, the processor identifies a location of the party who is speaking relative to the video camera based on the determined respective distances and angles. Based on the identified location, the processor selects a portion of a video frame produced by video camera and processes the selected portion to mitigate optical distortion and generate an overall picture in which the party speaking does not appear unnaturally small relative to the overall picture.

Mobile terminal with ergonomic imaging functions. The present invention, by way of example embodiments, provides for a mobile terminal with ergonomic imaging or camera functions. A single display can be used, for example in portrait mode while terminal functions are being used and in landscape mode while imaging functions are being used. The change between the two orientations can be accomplished automatically. In some embodiments, the capability is also provided to process an image for assignment to a terminal function, where the image has at least one display attribute that makes it at least partly unsuitable for use with the terminal function. The processing may include resizing, cropping, and/or rotating the image. This processing can be accomplished for example, so that a landscape image can be viewed conveniently in a portrait orientation.
摘要:
An interface device, for use in a data management system, interfaces between a plurality of application programs, each requiring a device dependent message to run a transaction, and a client device capable of requesting a transaction to be run. The interface device receives device independent messages, from a client device, each containing a keyword, and translates these into device dependent messages which are sent to application programs. The device dependent message returned from the application program is translated by the interface into a device independent message before being sent to the client device.
摘要:
A reaction bonded silicon carbide body in which there is included in the free silicon phase of the body to modify the electrical resistivity of the body, at least one of the Group III elements boron and indium or at least one of the Group V elements antimony and tantalum. The element may be added in compound form and may be included in the green body prior to reaction bonding or in the silicon with which it is reaction bonded.
