A quantitative knowledge of the articulatory characteristics is necessary for understanding the dynamics of speech production. Accordingly, it is expected that observations of the shape of mouth will provide useful data for the study on articulatory behaviors in speech production. This paper describes characteristic changes in the shape of the mouth on the basis of processed image data taken by...

In 1982, Betamax, the world’s first personal recording service was ruled as a fair use in court. Although the copyright holders of TV content claimed that Betamax was an infringement of copyright, the court determined that the benefits of personal recording services were significant and that the copyright holder’s profits could be protected because the original service was of better quality and...

Seideman and Miller have recently introduced a direct, &cient method for calculating cumulative reaction probabilities by using a discrete variable representation to represent the Green function and absorbing boundary conditions to enfonx the outgoing wave boundary conditions. It is shown that this method for representing the Green function can also be used to calculate state specific reaction ...

Several applications today need to digitally capture every frame of a video stream or a camera. These range from psychological studies to surveillance to video processing. Some applications also need to capture the frames from multiple video streams synchronously and to correlate them with one another. A video stream of color data, though, represents a sustained bandwidth of about 26 Mbytes per...

A U.S. consumer watches TV for about five hours a day on average. While the majority of viewed content is still the broadcast TV programming, the share of the time‐shifted content has been ever increasing. One third of the U.S. consumers currently use a digital video recorder (DVR)‐like device for time‐shifting, however, the trends are showing that more and more consumers are going to the Web t...
