Abstract:
A computer-implemented method of extracting key phrases from a document is disclosed comprising the steps of accessing a repository comprising linked subjects, the repository comprising first and second data structures representing the relationship between said subjects using different representation criteria; pruning the first data structure by removing links between subjects based on a further relationship between said subjects in the second data structure; matching phrases in said document to subjects in the pruned first data structure; further pruning the pruned first data structure by removing unmatched subjects that are not linked to matched subjects; determining a ranking for each matched subject; and selecting key phrases using the determined subject rankings. A computer program for implementing the steps of this method when executed on a computer is also disclosed.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a circle of trust on a network. The circle of trust is configured by exchanging credential of a first and a second affiliated entity. The credentials of the first affiliated entity is stored in a trusted partner list of the second affiliated entity. The credentials of the second affiliated entity is stored in a trusted partner list of the first affiliated entity. Thereafter, a circle of trust session may be provided when a client device initiates use of a resource on a relying party device by providing an authentication assertion reference. The identity of the issuing party of the authentication is determined as a function of the authentication assertion reference. The relying party sends an authentication query containing its credential to the issuing party. The issuing party determines if the relying party is a trusted entity based upon whether the relying party's credential is contained in the trusted partner list of the issuing party.
Abstract:
A method for data transmission in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system. The method for data transmission includes receiving multiple input data streams and performing low density parity check (LDPC) encoding of the input data streams utilising a parity check matrix. The parity check matrix comprises a plurality of sub-parity check matrices for encoding respective associated ones of the input data streams and performing space time encoding for transmitting the LDPC encoded input data streams over a plurality of antennas. The performing of the LDPC encoding of the input data streams includes generating one or more connection matrices, each connection matrix for injecting information of one of the input data streams into the encoding of another one of the input data streams. Each connection matrix is a zero matrix if a lowest parity check protection level based on the sub-parity check matrix for the one of the input data streams is equal to or lower than an assigned parity check protection level for the one input data stream, and a non zero matrix otherwise.
Abstract:
Provided is a modulation device which generates a phase modulation signal and an amplitude modulation signal and can correct an I/Q orthogonal shift and reduce degradation of the ON/OFF ratio. In the device, a phase shifter (174) controls voltage applied to a capacitor in accordance with a control signal outputted from a phase control unit (180) and adjusts the capacitance so as to shift the phase of a carrier generated by an oscillator (173). The phase control unit (180) estimates a phase shift of a phase shifter (174) in accordance with an output RF signal (S140) by using the phase shift estimation method. Furthermore, the phase control unit (180) performs tuning of the phase shifter (174) according to the estimated value of the phase shift of the phase shifter (174) so that a phase difference between carries of an I signal (S125) and a Q signal (S135) is 90 degrees.

A method for multi-protocol logout. The method includes receiving, by a first identity provider, a logout request from a user agent, wherein the first identity provider executes in a federation manager, and initiating a logout on a service provider associated with the first identity provider based on the logout request by the first identity provider. The method further includes identifying, by the federation manager, a plurality of identity providers associated with the user agent, wherein the plurality of identity providers communicate using heterogeneous federation protocols, and initiating, by the federation manager, a logout on each of the plurality of identity providers based on the logout request using the plurality of heterogeneous federation protocols. The method further includes initiating, by the plurality of identity providers, a logout of each service provider corresponding to the plurality of identity providers, identifying a status of each logout, and sending the status to the user agent.

The method comprises the stesp of receiving a plurality of data sequences, each assigned with a priority level; encoding each of said plurality of data sequences in accordance with the assigned priority level to form a plurality of coded data sequences, the coded data sequences comprising systematic data and parity data; interleaving said plurality of coded data sequences to form a plurality of interleaved data sequences; multiplexing said plurality of interleaved data sequences to form a plurality of multiplexed data sequences; and mapping said plurality of multiplexed data sequences to form a plurality of mapped data sequences for subsequent transmission of said mapped data sequences from said multiple transmit antennas.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide an open and interoperable single sign-on session in a heterogeneous communication network. The open and interoperable single sign-on system is configured by exchanging an entity identifier, an account mapping, an attribute mapping, a site attribute list, an action mapping and/or the like. The entity identifier, account mapping, attribute mapping, site attribute list, action mapping and the like for each partner entity is stored in a partner list accessable to the particular entity. Thereafter, the open and interoperable single sign-on session may be provided upon receipt of a SAML request or assertion containing an entity identifier. The entity identifier contained in the SAML request or assertion is looked-up in the partner list of the particular entity which received the SAML request or assertion. A record containing a matching entity identifier provides the applicable account mapping, attribute mapping, site attribute list, and/or action mapping. The one or more mappings are then utilized to process the SAML request or assertion.
