This paper describes an automatic content indexing system for news programs, with a special emphasis on its segmentation process. The process can successfully segment an entire news program into topic-centered news stories; the primary tool is a linguistic topic segmentation algorithm. Experiments show that the resulting speech-based segments are fairly accurate, and scene change points supplied by an external video processor can be of help in improving segmentation effectiveness.

A 500-dpi 224x256-pixel single-chip fingerprint identification LSI adapts the sensing circuit to a finger and performs pixel-parallel image processing and rotation in a pixel array. A test chip achieves 2ms 10mW sensing, 41ms 19.2mW identification, and practical identification accuracy at 2.5V. 5MHz. S.
