In one configuration, erasure of a significant frame of a sustained voiced segment is detected. An adaptive codebook gain value for the erased frame is calculated based on the preceding frame. If the calculated value is less than (alternatively, not greater than) a threshold value, a higher adaptive codebook gain value is used for the erased frame. The higher value may be derived from the calculated value or selected from among one or more predefined values.

The invention relates to representation of one and multidimensional signal vectors in multiple nonorthogonal domains and design of Vector Quantizers that can be chosen among these representations. There is presented a Vector Quantization technique in multiple nonorthogonal domains for both waveform and model based signal characterization. An iterative codebook accuracy enhancement algorithm, applicable to both waveform and model based Vector Quantization in multiple nonorthogonal domains, which yields further improvement in signal coding performance, is disclosed. Further, Vector Quantization in multiple nonorthogonal domains is applied to speech and exhibits clear performance improvements of reconstruction quality for the same bit rate compared to existing single domain Vector Quantization techniques. The technique disclosed herein can be easily extended to several other one and multidimensional signal classes.

Systems and methods for very high throughput adaptive filtering using distributed arithmetic are disclosed. One distributed arithmetic adaptive filter may include a memory for storing a first and second lookup table. The first lookup table may include 2K filter weights addressed by the rightmost bits of each of K signal samples stored in a plurality of registers. The filter may include a controller configured to update the second lookup table with each possible combination of the sums of the K most recent input samples and update each of the 2K filter weights of the first lookup table based on the combination of the sums of the K most recent input samples stored in the second lookup table. The second lookup-table may be updated during a filtering operation that uses the first lookup-table. One filter may include a plurality of sub-filters with each sub-filter having first and second lookup tables.

The present invention provides transcription factors associated with the hedgehog signaling pathway that are regulated by dephosphorylation by phosphatases. Hedgehog response elements (HRE) that interact with the dephosphorylated transcription factors are also provided as well as methods for identifying compounds that are phosphatase inhibitors. Methods of treating tumors in a subject by modulating the phosphorylation of the transcription factor are also included.

A method of bit allocation is described. The method includes, for each among a plurality of vectors, calculating a corresponding one of a plurality of gain factors. The method also includes, for each among the plurality of vectors, calculating a corresponding bit allocation that is based on the gain factor. The method further includes, for at least one among the plurality of vectors, determining that the corresponding bit allocation is not greater than a minimum allocation value. The method additionally includes, in response to the determining, for each of the at least one vector, changing the corresponding bit allocation.

A fuel door and a sliding door are on the same side of a vehicle. The sliding door has power locking and power child locking. To prevent the sliding door from interfering with the fuel door during refueling, a lock controller responds to the fuel door moving to the open position by 1) preserving a current outside locked or unlocked state and a current inside locked or unlocked state of the sliding door, 2) initiating or maintaining the outside locked state and inside locked state, and 3) after the fuel door moving to the closed position, restoring or maintaining the preserved current outside locked or unlocked state and the preserved current inside locked or unlocked state.

A passive entry system for an vehicle door requires no active operator input to gain entrance to the vehicle. A door module recognizes the signal transmitted by an authorized key fob to identify the operator of the vehicle. The authentication of the operator coupled with the operator touching a sensor on the door to be opened actuates a release actuator that unlatches the selected door. The spring-load provided by the door seal will pop the door open from the closed position. A key cylinder, which can be located substantially anywhere on the door, is coupled mechanically to the release latch for use if the battery is weak and cannot activate the release actuator. An LED signals the state of the opening sequence for the door. The fixed door handle can incorporate a membrane switch or a capacitive sensor to indicate the selection of the door by the operator when touched.
