Abstract: A method of creating content adapted multimedia guidance for a web document, comprising: analyzing location and type of dynamic components in a web document for the creation of a flow dataset, that maps at least one trigger node representing a user initiated trigger event and at least one action node linked to the trigger node and representing instruction to present guidance related to one of the dynamic components in response to the user initiated trigger event; identifying a loading event during which the web document is loaded on a client terminal of a user; extracting at least one generated value from the dynamic components; building an audio sequence associated with the action node by selecting audio segments according to the generated value and arranging the audio segments according to the flow dataset; and when the trigger is activated, playing the audio sequence on the client terminal.

Abstract: A system and method for generating animation sequences from either input sound files, input text files or both. A particular embodiment takes an animation sequence of a particular character performing a gesture (such as waving hello) and a sound file, and produces a complete, high-quality, animation sequence with sound and correct lip synchronization. Another embodiment takes an input text file, decodes it to determine one or more gestures, produces a sound file, and then outputs a complete animated sequence with a chosen animation character performing the one or more gestures and mouthing the spoken sounds with correct lip synchronization. Still another embodiment allows entry of a sound file containing multiple spoken gesture keywords. This file can be converted to text or searched for keywords as an audio file. The present invention, as it runs, chooses from a large database of high-quality renderings producing a very high-quality output product.

Abstract: A method for performing channel estimation in a millimeter wave wireless communication system. The method includes receiving complementary sequences at a receiver of the millimeter wave wireless communication system. The received complementary sequences are generated at a first sampling rate; producing special complementary sequences from the received complementary sequences; cross-correlating the special complementary sequences with an input signal related to the received complementary sequences. The cross-correlation is performed at a second sampling rate and the second sampling rate is higher than the first sampling rate; and analyzing the result of the cross-correlation to estimate at least characteristics of a channel between the receiver and a transmitter of the millimeter wave wireless communication system.
