PURPOSE To characterize and quantify the distal edge activity fall off, created in a phantom by a proton therapy beam METHOD AND MATERIALS: A 30×30×10cm polymethylmethacrylate phantom was irradiated with a proton therapy beam using different ranges and beams. The irradiation volume is approximated by a right circular cylinder of diameter 7.6cm and varying lengths. After irradiation, the phantom...

In this paper, we present the Philips large vocabulary continuous Mandarin speech recognition system developed for the 2000 Taiwan Speech Input Technology Assessment. We systematically integrated key Mandarin components with up-todate Western-language techniques to build up a state-of-the-art Mandarin speech recognition system. These technologies include robust pitch extraction/tone modeling, c...

This paper describes the Philips Large Vocabulary Continuous Mandarin speech recognition system for the 1999 Taiwan benchmark. The basic system architecture is based on the Philips LVCSR technology developed for Western languages. However, several modifications are made in order to better suitted processing Chinese spoken languages. In the paper, we present some experimental results on the two ...
