摘要:
Content identification methods for consumer devices determine robust audio fingerprints that are resilient to audio distortions. One method generates signatures representing audio content based on a constant Q-factor transform (CQT). A 2D spectral representation of a 1D audio signal facilitates generation of region based signatures within frequency octaves and across the entire 2D signal representation. Also, points of interest are detected within the 2D audio signal representation and interest regions are determined around selected points of interest. Another method generates audio descriptors using an accumulating filter function on bands of the audio spectrum and generates audio transform coefficients. A response of each spectral band is computed and transform coefficients are determined by filtering, by accumulating derivatives with different lags, and computing second order derivatives. Additionally, time and frequency based onset detection determines audio descriptors at events and enhances descriptors with information related to an event.

Video sequence processing is described with various filtering rules applied to extract dominant features for content based video sequence identification. Active regions are determined in video frames of a video sequence. Video frames are selected in response to temporal statistical characteristics of the determined active regions. A two pass analysis is used to detect a set of initial interest points and interest regions in the selected video frames to reduce the effective area of images that are refined by complex filters that provide accurate region characterizations resistant to image distortion for identification of the video frames in the video sequence. Extracted features and descriptors are robust with respect to image scaling, aspect ratio change, rotation, camera viewpoint change, illumination and contrast change, video compression/decompression artifacts and noise. Compact, representative signatures are generated for video sequences to provide effective query video matching and retrieval in a large video database.
摘要:
The invention relates to an arrangement and a method for the directed supplying and installation of device specific functionalities and/or data for field devices that are disposed in a distributed system. At least one device-specific component is provided which cooperates with at least two functional units that are linked thereto. Said at least one device-specific component comprises means that automatically cause device-specific functionalities and/or data for the field devices, which are stored in the functional units, to be supplied and installed.

A method and apparatus for overmolding a plastic shroud onto a bobbin including the step of providing a protrusion ring on the surface of the bobbin surrounding each standoff between the bobbin and a mold wall and extending outwards from the surface of the bobbin. A plurality of standoffs and protrusion rings is presently preferred. The protrusion rings are small relative to the standoffs, have low thermal mass, and thus are readily melted by the injected molten plastic, causing interstitching between the bobbin material and the overmolding material. The interstitching creates a highly effective hermetic seal against moisture leakage along the surface of the bobbin away from the standoff site. Perfect melting of the standoffs is no longer required, and standoffs can be designed to assure proper positioning of the bobbin during the complete overmolding process.
摘要:
A shoulder joint prosthesis is shown having two bearing bodies (1, 2; 11, 12) which slide on one another and which can be respectively connected to the upper arm (3) by a shaft (5) and to the shoulder bone (4) by a platform (6). When the connection to the shaft (5) is brought about by a non-rotationally symmetrical, conical body (7) with a self-locking seat, with its periphery (8) being form matched to a mating shape (15) in the shaft (5) which is rotationally fixed relative to a longitudinal axis (9) arid keyed by the taper so that the connection is releasable and repeatedly fixable in the same angular position, large forces can be transmitted by the connection.
摘要:
A method and/or apparatus for embedding and detecting watermarks in a set of data frames, where a secondary domain is used for combining the data frame, watermark, and a geometric pattern for holding the watermark, and that secondary domain is used for post-combination filtering of the modified data frame. The secondary domain is preferably a wavelet domain or sub-band domain. The geometric pattern for holding the watermark is reversibly mapable between a complex pattern in the original domain of the data frame and a simple pattern in the secondary domain where combination and filtering takes place.

A pulse power amplifier comprises a driver stage and a following splitter/combiner stage for symmetrical power division. The driver stage is preceded by a switch-over device in the signal path, the switch-over device also being connected to a decoupled port of the splitter/combiner stage via an additional signal path.
