  • Patent number: 11984261
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards an integrated chip including a dielectric structure sandwiched between a first electrode and a bottom electrode. A passivation layer overlies the second electrode and the dielectric structure. The passivation layer comprises a horizontal surface vertically below a top surface of the passivation layer. The horizontal surface is disposed above a top surface of the dielectric structure.

  • Publication number: 20240071850
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a semiconductor structure and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor structure. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate, semiconductor structures, an isolation layer, an adhesive layer, a metal layer, a metal nitride layer, a semiconductor layer, a profile modifier layer, and a disconnection structure. The semiconductor structures are disposed on the substrate. The isolation layer is disposed between the semiconductor structures. The metal layer is disposed on an adhesive layer. The metal nitride layer is disposed on the metal layer. The semiconductor layer is disposed on the metal nitride layer. The profile modifier layer is disposed on the semiconductor layer. The disconnection structure is disposed and extending from the profile modifier layer to the isolation layer. A first width of the disconnection structure in the profile modifier layer is substantially the same as a second width of the disconnection structure in the isolation layer.

  • Patent number: 9583098
    Abstract: A system and method for generating a video sequence having mouth movements synchronized with speech sounds are disclosed. The system utilizes a database of n-phones as the smallest selectable unit, wherein n is larger than 1 and preferably 3. The system calculates a target cost for each candidate n-phone for a target frame using a phonetic distance, coarticulation parameter, and speech rate. For each n-phone in a target sequence, the system searches for candidate n-phones that are visually similar according to the target cost. The system samples each candidate n-phone to get a same number of frames as in the target sequence and builds a video frame lattice of candidate video frames. The system assigns a joint cost to each pair of adjacent frames and searches the video frame lattice to construct the video sequence by finding the optimal path through the lattice according to the minimum of the sum of the target cost and the joint cost over the sequence.

  • Patent number: 7142697
    Abstract: A face recognition system and process for identifying a person depicted in an input image and their face pose. This system and process entails locating and extracting face regions belonging to known people from a set of model images, and determining the face pose for each of the face regions extracted. All the extracted face regions are preprocessed by normalizing, cropping, categorizing and finally abstracting them. More specifically, the images are normalized and cropped to show only a persons face, categorized according to the face pose of the depicted person's face by assigning them to one of a series of face pose ranges, and abstracted preferably via an eigenface approach.
