    摘要: A traction control assembly for connection between a monorail bogie frame and a monorail car. The traction control assembly comprising a first traction link pivotally connected to a first bell crank mechanism and a second traction link pivotally connected to a second bell crank mechanism. The first traction link and the second traction link are capable of absorbing traction forces applied to the monorail bogie. The traction control assembly further comprises a cross link interconnecting the first bell crank mechanism and the second bell crank mechanism and a passive steering assist device interconnecting the first bell crank mechanism and the second bell crank mechanism. The steering assist device causes the traction control assembly to insert shear forces on the monorail bogie during travel of the monorail bogie over a curved section of monorail track for facilitating rotational motion between the monorail bogie and the monorail car.

    摘要: The invention relates to compressing of sparse data sets contains sequences of data values and position information therefor. The position information may be in the form of position indices defining active positions of the data values in a sparse vector of length N. The position information is encoded into the data values by adjusting one or more of the data values within a pre-defined tolerance range, so that a pre-defined mapping function of the data values and their positions is close to a target value. In one embodiment, the mapping function is defined using a sub-set of N filler values which elements are used to fill empty positions in the input sparse data vector. At the decoder, the correct data positions are identified by searching though possible sub-sets of filler values.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for encoding an audio signal. In a first embodiment a model relating to temporal masking of sound provided to a human ear is provided. A temporal masking index is determined in dependence upon a received audio signal and the model using a forward and a backward masking function. Using a psychoacoustic model a masking threshold is determined in dependence upon the temporal masking index. Finally, the audio signal is encoded in dependence upon the masking threshold. The method has been implemented using the MPEG-1 psychoacoustic model 2. Semiformal listening test showed that using the method for encoding an audio signal according to the present invention the subjective high quality of the decoded compressed sounds has been maintained while the bit rate was reduced by approximately 10%. In a second embodiment, the inharmonic structure of audio signals is modeled and incorporated into the MPEG-1 psychoacoustic model 2. In the model, the relationship between the spectral components of the input audio signal is considered and an inharmonicity index is defined and incorporated into the MPEG-1 psychoacoustic model 2. Informal listening tests have shown that the bit rate required for transparent coding of inharmonic (multi-tonal) audio material can be reduced by 10% if the modified psychoacoustic model 2 is used in the MPEG 1 Layer II encoder.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for efficient encoding of media signals including audio. A 2d sparse representation, or spikegram, of one frame of a digitized audio signal is generated using an overcomplete set of kernels. The spikegram is then mapped to a non-negative matrix, which is decomposed into a 3D component matrix containing hidden components and a 3D weight matrix using a two-dimensional non-negative matrix factorization. Elements of the 3D component and weight matrices are then adaptively quantized using integer programming to determine an optimal quantization scheme, and the quantized values are the optionally encoded using an arithmetic coder.

    摘要: A biologically-inspired process for universal audio coding based on neural spikes is presented. The process is based on the generation of sparse two-dimensional time-frequency representations of audio signals, called spikegrams. The spikegrams are generated by projecting the audio signal onto a set of over-complete adaptive gamma-chirp kernels. A masking model is applied to the spikegrams to remove inaudible spikes and to increase the coding efficiency. In respect of one aspect of the invention, the masked spikegram is then quantized using a genetic-algorithm-based quantizer (or its simplified linear version). The values are then differentially coded using graph based optimization and entropy coded afterwards.
