    摘要: Methods of fabricating an integrated circuit with a fin-based fuse, and the resulting integrated circuit with a fin-based fuse are provided. In the method, a fin is created from a layer of semiconductor material and has a first end and a second end. The method provides for forming a conductive path on the fin from its first end to its second end. The conductive path is electrically connected to a programming device that is capable of selectively directing a programming current through the conductive path to cause a structural change in the conductive path to increase resistance across the conductive path.

The read port includes a first transistor having a first gate coupled to the storage element, a first source region, and a first drain region. The second transistor includes a second gate, a second source region coupled to the first drain region, and a second drain region. A first dopant profile of the first and second source regions is asymmetric with respect to a second dopant profile of the first and second drain regions.

    摘要: The present invention comprises using error propagation for building feature spaces with variable uncertainty and using variable-bandwidth mean shift for the analysis of such spaces, to provide peak detection and space partitioning. The invention applies these techniques to construct and analyze Hough spaces for line and geometrical shape detection, as well as to detect objects that are represented by peaks in the Hough space. This invention can be further used for background modeling by taking into account the uncertainty of the transformed image color and uncertainty of the motion flow. Furthermore, the invention can be used to segment video data in invariant spaces, by propagating the uncertainty from the original space and using the variable-bandwidth mean shift to detect peaks. The invention can be used in a variety of applications such as medical, surveillance, monitoring, automotive, augmented reality, and inspection.

    摘要: A method for dynamic scene modeling and change detection applicable to motion analysis utilizes optical flow for capturing and modeling the dynamics of the scene. Uncertainties in the measurements are evaluated and utilized in order to develop a robust representation of the scene in a higher dimensional space. In another embodiment, a dynamical model of the scene is developed that utilizes multiple past frames to predict the next frame. Incremental methods for updating the model are developed and, towards detection of events, a new measure is introduced that is based on a state-driven comparison between the prediction and the actual observation.
