Abstract: A system for multi-lingual speech recognition. The inventive system includes a speech modeling engine, a speech search engine, and a decision reaction engine. The speech modeling engine receives and transfers a mixed multi-lingual speech signal into speech features. The speech search engine locates and compares candidate data sets. The decision reaction engine selects resulting speech models from the candidate speech models and generates a speech command.

Abstract: The present invention generally provides a method of measuring the biological activity of Coagulation Factor VIIa (Factor VIIa). Specifically, the present invention provides a method for directly measuring the activity of Factor VIIa in a plasma sample. More specifically, the present invention provides a method for utilizing Factor VIIa activity as a bio-marker to monitor Factor VIIa inhibition to screen compounds which are able to inhibit the biological activity of Factor VIIa.

Abstract: Within both a system for managing a work in process (WIP) workload lot within a fabrication facility and a method for managing the work in process (WIP) workload lot within the fabrication facility, there is provided for direct customer access for requesting a change in handling instructions for the work in process (WIP) workload lot within the fabrication facility. The direct customer access when requesting the change provides for enhanced flexibility when operating the fabrication facility.

Abstract: An electric water spray gun system is disclosed having a floatable intake device with a body made of lightweight material in the form of a high-stem bowl with a plurality of weight rings engaging the stem portion by threads for adjustment of its center of gravity by adjusting the position and/or number of such weight rings. The intake device also has a filter ring with a number of filter elements of different screen sizes arranged over an opening at the lower end of the stem portion which serves as an inlet port, a d.c. motor installed at the upper section of a passage within the body, a lower section serving as a water inlet passage, a first vane fixed to the drive shaft of the d.c. motor, and a check valve at a water outlet port located beside the passage for pumping water from any water source to an electric spray gun. The spray gas is composed of a gun body with an "L" shaped water passage having a water inlet port at one end and a water outlet port at another end, a d.c.
