Method and device for coding and decoding motion vector

ActiveCN101860754AFast codec processingHandling of reliable codecsTelevision systemsDigital video signal modificationTemplate matchingMotion vector
The present invention relates to a video coding method. Specifically, the invention relates to motion vector (MV) coding, wherein the MV coding is based on edge matching or adaptive template matching, namely the motion vector coding based on boundary matching (MVCBM) and the motion vector coding based on adaptive template matching (MVCATM). Generally speaking, the invention limits a prediction candidate set, wherein a predictor adaptively changes based on the current distribution of the adjacent MV. Subsequently, a matching technique (boundary matching in MVCBM and adaptive template matching in MVCATM) is used for reducing the number of the prediction and reducing the number of bits used by indexing. Afterwards, an optimal motion vector predicator is selected from the reduced concentrated predictor. The guessing strategy based on the least MVD standard further saves the number of indexing bits.

Systems and methods for boundary detection in images

Systems and methods that accurately detect and locate an edge or boundary position based on a number of different characteristics of the image, such as texture, intensity, color, etc. A user can invoke a boundary detection tool to perform, for example, a texture-based edge-finding operation, possibly along with a conventional intensity gradient edge-locating operation. The boundary detection tool defines a primary region of interest that will include an edge or boundary to be located within a captured image of an object. The boundary detection tool is useable to locate edges in a current object, and to quickly and robustly locate corresponding edges of similar objects in the future.

Apparatus and method for managing internet resource requests

DNS in its native form cannot identify a good or best server. Traditional Service Providers deploy a centralised approach to global traffic management based on enhancements to DNS, but do have the capability to augment this with edge-based server selection because they do not own / operate an edge network. Their resolution of DNS requests is typically restricted to identifying candidate servers within an edge domain rather than selecting the “best” server. The invention proposes a method of handling Internet resource requests whereby a local lookup server receiving a request searches for a best server able to satisfy the resource request. The local lookup server finds the best server by searching a database for a resource record associated with the best server, and then uses the resource record to retrieve an identifier of a series of executable instructions that are executed to locate the best server. The resource requests and responses may hold additional information relating to operational characteristics which may used to determine the best server. The invention proposes a DNS record type comprising a user-defined field for conveying this additional information in the resource request and in the response. The invention also proposes architecture for handling the resource request comprising a network server that provides the requested resource using the best server, as well as a communications network comprising this architecture.

Inferring file and website reputations by belief propagation leveraging machine reputation

The probability of a computer file being malware is inferred by iteratively propagating domain knowledge among computer files, related clients, and / or related source domains. A graph is generated to include machine nodes representing clients, file nodes representing files residing on the clients, and optionally domain nodes representing source domains hosting the files. The graph also includes edges connecting the machine nodes with the related file nodes, and optionally edges connecting the domain nodes with the related file nodes. Priors and edge potentials are set for the nodes and the edges based on related domain knowledge. The domain knowledge is iteratively propagated and aggregated among the connected nodes through exchanging messages among the connected nodes. The iteration process ends when a stopping criterion is met. The classification and associated marginal probability for each file node are calculated based on the priors, the received messages, and the edge potentials associated with the edges through which the messages were received.

Displacing edge segments on a fabrication layout based on proximity effects model amplitudes for correcting proximity effects

Techniques for forming a fabrication layout, such as a mask, for a physical design layout, such as a layout for an integrated circuit, include correcting the fabrication layout for proximity effects using a proximity effects model. A proximity effects model is executed to produce an initial output. The initial output is based on a first position for a segment in a fabrication layout. The first position is displaced from a corresponding original edge in the original fabrication layout by a distance equal to an initial bias. The model is also executed to produce a second output based on a second position for the segment. The second position is displaced from the corresponding original edge by a distance equal to a second bias. An optimal bias for the segment is determined based on the initial output and the second output. The segment is displaced in the fabrication layout from the corresponding edge based on the optimal bias.

Method and apparatus for control and routing of wireless sensor networks

A scalable, minimum node complexity, energy efficient, and error-resilient routing method for wireless sensor networks is described. The network is partitioned into regions by power controlled base station scans using a directional antenna. Routing is performed using only local location information and instructions received from the base station at each sensor node with minimum processing and control overhead, thus allowing simple, low-cost sensor designs. Sensors in the network provide to a base station reports of the condition of the sensors themselves, and these reports are analyzed by the base station to determine improved routing instructions, which are then provided to the sensor nodes in control messages. Each data packet is relayed in an interleaved, loop-free mesh of sectors toward the base station, making data delivery robust to sensor failures and transmission errors. The disclosure also contains descriptions for simple edge-based tasking, query, code distribution, and network programming for sensor nodes. The method is suitable for large-scale, dense sensor networks for detection, alarming, and monitoring applications.

Deinterlacing of video sources via image feature edge detection

ActiveUS7023487B1Reduce artifactsPreserves maximum amount of vertical detailImage enhancementTelevision system detailsInterlaced videoProgressive scan
An interlaced to progressive scan video converter which identifies object edges and directions, and calculates new pixel values based on the edge information. Source image data from a single video field is analyzed to detect object edges and the orientation of those edges. A 2-dimensional array of image elements surrounding each pixel location in the field is high-pass filtered along a number of different rotational vectors, and a null or minimum in the set of filtered data indicates a candidate object edge as well as the direction of that edge. A 2-dimensional array of edge candidates surrounding each pixel location is characterized to invalidate false edges by determining the number of similar and dissimilar edge orientations in the array, and then disqualifying locations which have too many dissimilar or too few similar surrounding edge candidates. The surviving edge candidates are then passed through multiple low-pass and smoothing filters to remove edge detection irregularities and spurious detections, yielding a final edge detection value for each source image pixel location. For pixel locations with a valid edge detection, new pixel data for the progressive output image is calculated by interpolating from source image pixels which are located along the detected edge orientation.
