摘要:
The burner comprises a combustion chamber equipped with a flame retention cone. The flame retention cone comprises a diverging jacket with orifices for the passage of oxygen-carrier gas. A fuel lance provided with radially arranged exit openings has its outlet in an upstream inlet section of the flame retention cone. An igniter is arranged in an oxygen-carrier gas duct outside an ignition opening provided in the area of the fuel lance exit openings. The combustion chamber is accommodated inside an outer tube. The downstream ends of the combustion chamber and the outer tube enclose openings spaced, relative to each other, in the circumferential direction to allow the exit of oxygen-carrier gas. The burner provides for flame stability and low-polluting combustion.

Disclosed are a method and apparatus for processing a continuous audio stream containing human speech in order to locate a particular speech-based transaction in the audio stream, applying both known speaker recognition and speech recognition techniques. Only the utterances of a particular predetermined speaker are transcribed thus providing an index and a summary of the underlying dialogue(s). In a first scenario, an incoming audio stream, e.g. a speech call from outside, is scanned in order to detect audio segments of the predetermined speaker. These audio segments are then indexed and only the indexed segments are transcribed into spoken or written language. In a second scenario, two or more speakers located in one room are using a multi-user speech recognition system (SRS). For each user there exists a different speaker model and optionally a different dictionary or vocabulary of words already known or trained by the speech or voice recognition system.

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for determining the state of bank notes. Determination of the state of bank notes by which data of at least two different properties of the bank notes are evaluated involves linking the data of the at least two different properties of each bank note with each other, and deriving the state of the bank note from the linked data of the different properties.

A digitized speech signal (600) is input to an F0 (fundamental frequency) processor that computes (610) a continuous F0 data from the speech signal. By the criterion voicing state transition (voiced/unvoiced transitions) the speech signal is presegmented (620) into segments. For each segment (630) it is evaluated (640) whether F0 is defined or not defined i.e. whether F0 is ON or OFF. In case of F0=OFF a candidate segment boundary is assumed as described above and, starting from that boundary, prosodic features are computed (650). The feature values are input into a classification tree and each candidate segment is classified thereby revealing, as a result, the existence or non-existence of a semantic or syntactic speech unit.

The invention relates to a printed valuable document with at least one authenticity mark in the form of a luminescent substance based on a host lattice doped with at least one rare earth metal. The host lattice largely absorbs in the visible region of the spectrum and is excitable in the visible region of the spectrum, and is transparent in at least parts of the IR spectral region. The rare earth metal is holmium. The luminescent substance is present in the volume of the valuable document in such a concentration that the properties of the valuable document just remain unimpaired.
摘要:
A method of producing a security element, and/or a security document that includes a security element, includes the steps of (a) providing first gaps in a first layer of the security element and in a magnetic layer disposed below the first layer, the first gaps forming negative characters readable upon transmission of light through the document, and (b) providing second gaps in the magnetic layer, the second gaps forming a magnetic coding.
摘要:
The invention relates to a system comprising a series of data carriers, in particular identity cards, papers of value or the like, whereby the data carriers belonging to the system exhibit diffraction structures containing standard information and parts of the series are changed by additional measures in the area of the diffraction structures or combined with other elements and they differ from the rest of the series in optically recognizable fashion, whereby the change in the diffraction structures and/or the combination with other elements convey an esthetic overall impression and the change and/or combination with the other elements cannot be undone without destruction of the diffraction structures.
摘要:
The invention relates to a security document with a security element having at least a first layer with gaps in the form of characters or patterns or the like, and a discontinuous magnetic layer in the form of a coding disposed below said first layer. In the areas where the gaps and the magnetic layer overlap, the gaps are also present in the magnetic layer. The invention further relates to a security element and to methods for producing said element and the document.
摘要:
A module-based apparatus for automatically processing thin sheet material is provided. The individual modules perform the tasks necessary for processing the sheet material. They are connected with one another and with a control device in such a way that data can be transmitted between all components. Additionally a safety device is provided for monitoring the data exchange among the modules themselves and between them and the control device. The safety device is in a position to prepare logs of the processing operations and to recognize manipulation of the apparatus with intent to defraud.
摘要:
A security document such as a credit card or the like has material adapted to be optically scanned arranged along a line in the document. A modulating structure such as a document paper thickness is disposed within the document so as to be positioned between the line and an optically scanning, light sensing device. Accordingly, light emitting material in the line of the card upon being scanned will have the light thereof modulated so as to produce a reproducible authenticating variable when said line is scanned by the light sensing device.
