  • Patent number: 8960924
    Abstract: An illumination system including a light source, a filtering module, a wavelength conversion unit, and a reflection unit is provided. The light source emits an illumination beam. The filtering module is disposed on a transmission path of the illumination beam and includes a plurality of filtering units having different colors. The filtering units move into the transmission path of the illumination beam in turn. Each filtering unit reflects a part of the illumination beam and allows another part of the illumination beam to pass through. The wavelength conversion unit is disposed on a transmission path of the part of the illumination beam reflected by at least one of the filtering units to convert the part of the illumination beam reflected by the at least one of the filtering units into a converted beam. The wavelength conversion unit is disposed on the reflection unit. A projection apparatus is also provided.

  • Patent number: 7171360
    Abstract: A speaker identification system includes a speaker model generator 110 for generating a plurality of speaker models. To this end, the generator records training utterances from a plurality of speakers in the background, without prior knowledge of the speakers who spoke the utterances. The generator performs a blind clustering of the training utterances based on a predetermined criterion. For each of the clusters a corresponding speaker model is trained. A speaker identifier 130 identifies a speaker determining a most likely one of the speaker models for an utterance received from the speaker. The speaker associated with the most likely speaker model is identified as the speaker of the test utterance.
