摘要:
An assessment authoring system implemented by an operative set of processor executable instructions configured for execution by at least one processor includes a user interface and an assessment generation component. The user interface communicates user input and the assessment generation component receives the user input from the user interface. The assessment generation component generates an assessment data structure for printing on a multifunction device. The printed assessment includes a marking region adapted to receive a human marking. The system may utilize a model or rubric that can be used to score the human marks when are processed by image processing.

A method and system for automatically helping a teacher/educator evaluate assessments administered to students for determining student's attributes. The teacher/educator reviews stored assessment forms at a digital user interface (DUI) at a multifunction device (MFD) and selects the desired forms and creates an Assessment Batch which includes a List of Students to be given the forms for marking. The system automatically codes each form with personalized student information and prints the individualized assessment forms. The teacher/educator administers the assessment and assessment forms are manually marked, collected and scanned at the MFD, entered into storage and the marked images automatically analyzed and the assessments automatically evaluated from stored rubrics and the teacher/educator is automatically notified by email that the evaluation has been performed. The system enables the teacher/educator to review the evaluations remotely and validate/annotate the evaluation and update the records in storage The Assessment Batch may be created for a list of students in a group, a class, a grade level, a school, a plurality of schools and students in a geographical area.

Systems and methods to enable real-time and near real-time storyboarding on the World Wide Web in addition to a graphical user interface for video parsing and browsing the of the storyboard. Specifically, storyboarding can be accomplished on the World Wide Web by parsing an input video into representative or key frames. These frames then can be posted to a web document, or the like, for subsequent viewing by a user. This allows a video to be distilled down to the essential frames thus eliminating storage and bandwidth problems as well as eliminating the need for a user to view the entirety of the video. Furthermore, the graphical user interface allows a user to visually interact with an input video signal to determine the key or representative frames, or to retrieve video segments associated with already determined key frames. Furthermore, the interface allows manipulation of these frames including, but not limited to, playing of the entire segment represented by that key or significant frame as well as actual determining of the cuts between significant segments.

A method of applying noise removal to an image so that the areas having the greatest variance have the least correction. First, the variance between each image pixel and its surrounding pixels is determined. Next, for the neighborhood around each pixel, a density of variance is determined. Finally the density of variance for the neighborhood around each pixel is used to correct the original pixel, the direction of correction being toward the mean value in the surrounding pixels. The result is that relatively uniform areas of the image, within which noise is most obvious, will get the most correction and areas that are textured will get the least.

An image editor stores color pixels for an image to be edited in an image pixel buffer and a lookup register bank. The stored image is displayed on a monitor. An operator uses a mouse to designate a screen path that identifies an object in the image, and pixel position data is detected for the screen path. A programmed computer determines in real time one or more criteria for a search controller on the basis of hue, saturation and luminance variables which are determined from the stored pixel color data for pixels along the screen path. The computer further searches the image pixels to identify the object and its boundaries in accordance with the search controller criteria, and applies color edit actions to the identified object within the image.
摘要:
An ink jet printhead having an integral membrane filter fabricated over the surface of the printhead containing the ink inlet is disclosed. The individual printheads are obtained by a sectioning operation which cuts aligned and bonded channel and heater wafers. The mated wafers contain a plurality of printheads and must be separated. The integral membrane filter is formed on the channel wafer after it is anisotropically etched incorporating the etch resistant mask layer and prior to mating with the heater wafer. A patternable layer is deposited over the etch resistant masking layer and exposed, patterned and developed to establish the mesh filter. In one embodiment, the side of the channel wafer not patterned and etched is heavily doped to form an etch stop which increases the robustness of the membrane filter by ensuring that the masking layer remains intact during subsequent fabricating steps. This doped region beneath the patternable layer is then etched using the membrane filter as a mask to open the filter pores through the doped layer of the channel wafer, thereby increasing the filter thickness and its overall strength.
