Patent number: 9189708Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for pruning a node from a possible nodes list for Hidden Markov Model with label transition node pruning. The node may be a label transition node. A frame may be at a predicted segmentation point in decoding input with the Hidden Markov Model. The node may be scored at the frame. The node may be pruned from the possible nodes list for the frame when score for the node is greater than the sum of a best score among nodes on the possible nodes list for the frame and a beam threshold minus a penalty term. A possible nodes list may be generated for a subsequent frame using label selection. A second node may be pruned from the possible nodes list for the subsequent frame with early pruning.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2013Date of Patent: November 17, 2015Assignee: Google Inc.Inventor: Yasuhisa Fujii

The PPI-scope generator converts the processed signal from the R?-coordinate system into an XY-orthogonal coordinate system and generates a radar image in a PPI-scope. The A-scope generator generates a radar image where the reception signal before being signal-processed is illustrated in an A-scope. The display output unit displays the PPI-scope radar image and the A-scope radar image on a display unit simultaneously. The user interface accepts a user input.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2013Publication date: March 27, 2014Applicant: Furuno Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiaki Takaki, Yugo Kubota, Yasuhisa Fujii
