Abstract:
The apparatus for foreign language study includes: a voice recognition device configured to recognize a speech entered by a user and convert the speech into a speech text; a speech intent recognition device configured to extract a user speech intent for the speech text using skill level information of the user and dialog context information; and a feedback processing device configured to extract a different expression depending on the user speech intent and a speech situation of the user. According to the present invention, the intent of a learner's speech may be determined even though the learner's skill is low, and customized expressions for various situations may be provided to the learner.
Abstract:
A method of processing EPG metadata in a network according to one embodiment of the present invention includes the steps of performing a services discovery procedure utilizing multiple service discovery metadata components supplied by a service provider and processing an EPG metadata. Preferably, the performing step includes the steps of receiving a master SI table which locates in a master SI table location in provisioning information, wherein the provisioning information includes multiple elements, an EPG provider information element in the multiple elements having both a first target virtual channel map identifier element and an EPG data locator element, the first target virtual channel map identifier element indicating that services are covered by each of the EPG metadata provider's EPG data sources, receiving a virtual channel map table which locates in virtual channel map locations in the received master SI table, receiving a virtual channel description table which locates in virtual channel description table locations in the received virtual channel map table, and receiving a source table which locates in source table locations in the received virtual channel description table.
Abstract:
A guitar effector module includes: a component circuit board in which an analog guitar effector circuit is formed; a module case in which a knob for adjusting a sound by a circuit is mounted, and the component circuit board is installed therein; and a circuit connection unit, in which a circuit input unit, a circuit output unit, and a circuit power supply unit with respect to the circuit are formed, which is electrically connected with the component circuit board, and is installed on an external side of the module case.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for improving charge/discharge cycle characteristics of a lithium secondary battery using a Si based anode active material, the method comprising surface-treating a surface of an anode current collector to have specific morphology, and preferably vapor-depositing a silicon film, as the anode active material by sputtering under application of bias voltage to the surface-treated anode current collector, and/or disposing an adhesive layer between the surface-treated anode current collector and silicon film, so as to reinforce bondability between the anode current collector and active material, ultimately leading to improvement of charge/discharge characteristics of the battery.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a submerged hollow fiber membrane module that includes a partition membrane having a slanted slit-shaped opening, and thus capable of not only improving operating efficiency of a hollow fiber membrane module by accelerating the water flow, but also allowing easy discharge of highly concentrated raw water around the hollow fiber membrane to the outside of the module during a reverse wash process.

Abstract:
A probe for an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. The probe includes a sound matching layer having a mounting groove, a piezoelectric member mounted on the mounting groove, a first connector interconnected to the sound matching layer, and a second connector interconnected to the piezoelectric member. The probe permits interconnection of the piezoelectric member to the first and second connectors to be performed rapidly and easily through a single bonding operation, thereby reducing manufacturing time while facilitating the manufacture of the probe.
