Speech Enhancement description
This software offers you the possibility of using a graphic equalizer for removing the stationary hindrances. Speech Enhancement represents a suite of applications that you may use when you want to imrpove the output of your microphone recording.

Single-microphone solution
This can be used for reduction of external hindrances and broadband color noises in speech signal. Controlled level of noises suppression in speech is up to 60 dB.

GritTecs Noise cancellation (NC) technology of single-microphone solution is used for reducing the external hindrances and background noises in speech signal. You can use this software for the selection of speech signal and for the selection of background noises.

Multi-microphone solution
Use this feature when noise from many different sources needs to be canceled. In its simplest form the technique uses two microphone solution.
Speaker is recorded synchronous with the source of hindrance (noise). The first microphone bases near by speaker, but the second one bases near by source of hindrance or noise.

Microphone Array solution
You can use this for reduction of external hindrances and ambient noises in speech source signal. In its simplest form the technique uses two array microphone configurations. By using acoustical beam-forming techniques, the microphone array can "focus" on the speakers position.

Here are some key features of "Speech Enhancement":

· High quality of speech enhancement;
· Low level of speech distortion;
· Operation with low level SNR;
· Separation as cleaned speech signal, so and background noise;
· Three modes adaptation to background noises;
· Controlled level of noise suppression in speech, including broadband color noises up to 60 dB;
· Possibility of using a graphic equalizer for removing the stationary hindrances;
· Easy integration with target applications;
· Fast adaptation to changing of external noises;
· Controlled level of noise suppression in speech;
· Support 2 microphones configurations;
· Directional microphones: unidirectional configuration;
· Distance between microphones not less 4 cm;
· Far-field pickup up to 2 meters;
· Noise suppression of stationary noise up to 15 db and up to 18 db for non-stationary noise


Requirements:

· Signal format: 16-bits linear
· 6 kHz, ..., 48 kHz sampling rate


Limitations:

· 30-day trial period

Adaptive Contrast Enhancement is a GIMP plugin which can enhance the contrast of images.

The basic "Stretch Contrast" operation takes in the whole image at once, and if there is a white pixel anywhere in the image and a black pixel anywhere in the image, it figures the contrast is already as good as can be. But Adaptive Contrast Enhancement works to increase the contrast locally, and brings out details that most wide-sweeping contrast-enhancements pass over.

Whats New in This Release:

· This is just another development-libgimp-compatibility-thing.
· There is more interesting work going on for the upcoming 0.7, but its not quite ready yet.

Immune System Enhancement description
Maintain a good health with Immune System Enhancement ebook. Immune System Enhancement application is a simple ebook that was designed to give you a full featured information about how to maintain a good health.

Body composition describes the percentages of fat, bone and muscle in your body.These percentages provide an overall view of your health and fitness in relation to your weight, health, and age. Weight and fat are often used together, but they are not interchangeable.

Organs involved in immunity include the thymus, bone marrow, spleen, tonsils and lymph nodes. Lymph circulates through lymphatic vessels in the body and also bathes the bodys cells. It is through the lymphatic system that fluid from the spaces between cells is drained, taking with it waste products, toxins and other debris from the tissues.

The application includes a free BMI Calculator.

The Java Binary Enhancement Tool (JBET) is a general Java program analysis and manipulation tool. Existing class files can be disassembled, reassembled, or edited programmatically through the JBET API. JBET can also be used to create new Java class files from scratch. JBET uses a convenient internal representation of all the contents of Java binary (.class) files, allowing the user to edit the classes easily, in a structured manner.

JBET was developed as part of the DARPA Self-Protecting Mobile Agents project under the OASIS and Active Networks programs (contract number N66001-00-C-8602) in order to study automated software obfuscation.

The Java language was chosen for this project because of the (relative) ease of constructing binary editing tools provided by the large amount of type information present in the class files. Our two reports, the Obfuscation Techniques Evaluation Report, and the Obfuscation Report, are available from the download area. The obfuscation tool developed is not part of this release.

JBET was also used in the DARPA/AFRL Survivable Server project (contract number F30602-00-C-0183) to add additional security checks to the Java Standard Library. (The Java SecurityManager API does not support many desirable security checks, such as continued authorization of file accesses after opening.)

JBET was used to replace the native method references in the Java standard library with stubs that call a pluggable security policy. This tool, called Jpolicy, is also available for download at this website. Jpolicy is very incomplete at this time, but may be interesting to those working in Java security or changing the standard library themselves.

The internal representation of Java class files used by JBET is intented to make it easy for programmers to write Java binary code transforms. Each element of Java class files has a corresponding internal data structure: ClassInfo for entire classes, MethodInfo for methods, FieldInfo for fields, Snippit for code blocks, and Instruction for individual instructions. Snippit and Instruction understand Java opcode syntax and semantics, allowing automated creation of valid Java programs. A Java-compatible class verifier is also included.

Some code transforms are difficult to program directly by manipulating Java instructions. For those transforms, a directed acyclic graph (DAG) representation of code is available. In the DAG representation, each basic block has a corresponding DAG, with a set of input and output nodes. Edges in the graph connect "producer" nodes (such as constants, or the result of calculations) to "user" nodes (such as method calls or other calculations). Methods are divided into basic blocks and control flow is stored at the basic block level (possible because Java has only fixed jump targets)

JBET requires a Java 1.4 virtual machine to run, although it can operate on class files from earlier Java versions. The packaging and build environment supplied supports Linux and Windows with Cygwin; however, the build process is simple and could be performed manually on other platforms. Perl is required for regression testing.

Jpolicy requires a Java 1.4 virtual machine to build, either Linux or Windows NT/XP with Cygwin. gcc is required for building on Windows (supplied with Cygwin). The runtime system can be either Java 1.3 or 1.4 (with Suns JVM only), running on Linux or Windows NT/XP. Windows 9x and Windows 2000 may work as well, but have not been tested.

Installation

1. Install jdk 1.4.1.
2. Set CLASSPATH to jdk1.4.1/jre/lib/rt.jar
3. cd src; make
4. If that didnt work, examine the makefile. java or javac may not be in the path.
5. To build a jar file that can be used with "java -jar jbet.jar", run "make jar".
6. If you have perl installed, run the tests with "make test".
Optionally, run "make regen; make test".

Make a symbolic link from jbet3/bin/jbet to somewhere in your path.

Usage

JBET uses the JNI format for class names, and JNI type and method descriptors. For a summary of this syntax, use jbet help syntax. Suns JVM specification may also be helpful.

To look at a class disassembly, use jbet print. Try disassembling a class you have source for, and was built with debug info (-g): jbet -P < classpath > print < classname >. Suns JVM specification has an instruction reference.

There have been some complaints that RV10 sometimes looks flat or "synthetic". This enhancement makes the video look more natural, and even though it is a postfilter, it takes advantage of information in the bitstream, and hence, it does not just add a uniform layer everywhere in the video.

Mathematical analysis between the source and the encoded video has shown that even though PSNR is reduced from HFE2, the visual resemblance is closer to the original.

The result is that it makes smooth surfaces, like walls, carpets, clothing, look much more natural than before, with any blocking tendencies, stair casing, and flat/dull areas much improved, in many cases completely removed.

Requirements: RealPlayer 10

Limitations: Works only with RealVideo 10
