  • Publication number: 20080221977
    Abstract: A method for integrated or Web based statistical process control of a data capture/data entry system we call AIMED@Q SPC™ (“Automatic Integration and Management of Enterprise Data Quality—Statistical Process Control”). Test images of machine print, handprint, or cursive writing, created through Digital Test Deck® technology or other methods, are injected into current workflows and keyed by Data Entry operators. Keyer results are quickly and cost-effectively compared to a perfectly known truth file corresponding to the test images. Reporting and analysis may be performed on single events or over time, at single or multiple locations.

  • Patent number: 4408297
    Abstract: Reduction in the maximum time uncertainty (t.sub.max -t.sub.min) of a series of paired time signals t.sub.1 and t.sub.2 varying between two input terminals and representative of a series of single events where t.sub.1 .ltoreq.t.sub.2 and t.sub.1 +t.sub.2 equals a constant, is carried out with a circuit utilizing a combination of OR and AND gates as signal selecting means and one or more time delays to increase the minimum value (t.sub.min) of the first signal t.sub.1 closer to t.sub.max and thereby reduce the difference. The circuit may utilize a plurality of stages to reduce the uncertainty by factors of 20-800.

  • Patent number: 4097610
    Abstract: A process, and the product produced thereby, for making fishbait from commercially suitable and/or unsuitable salmon eggs. The process includes the steps of: (1) mixing the salmon eggs, any residual salmon egg material, and the residual salmon egg oil with a binder, such as sugar, to form a mixture which thus includes whole salmon eggs; (2) spreading the mixture into an open vessel; (3) swabbing the exposed surface of the mixture with oil; (4) heating the mixture in a vacuum, thereby cooking it into a soft, but congealed mass; (5) turning the congealed mass over and repeating steps (3) and (4); and (6) cutting the mass resulting from step (5) into strips convenient for packaging and sale.

  • Patent number: H908
    Abstract: An improved method and system for a depleted uranium calorimeter detector used in high energy physics experiments. In a depleted uranium calorimeter detector, the energy of a particle entering the calorimeter detector is determined and the output response of the calorimeter detector is compensated so that the ratio of the integrated response of the calorimeter detector from a lepton to the integrated response of the calorimeter detector from a hadron of the same energy as the lepton is approximately equal to 1. In the present invention, the energy of a particle entering the calorimeter detector is determined as a function of time and the hadron content of the response of the calorimeter detector is inferred based upon the time structure of the energy pulse measured by the calorimeter detector. The energy measurement can be corrected based on the inference of the hadron content whereby the resolution of the calorimeter can be improved.
