Adaptive up-sample filtering is used to improve compression efficiency of spatially scalable coding systems by more effectively predicting the high-resolution (enhanced-layer) video (or image) from the low-resolution lower-layer video (or image). Different up-sample filters adaptive to local image properties are selectively used for different portions of a low resolution frame to generate a better up-sampled image. Selection between different up-sample filters is determined by a variety of different information available to both the encoder and decoder. In one embodiment, the up-sample filters are selected by the encoder and then explicitly identified to the decoder. Other techniques are then used to minimize the cost of transmitting the up-sample filter identifiers. In alternative embodiments, the encoder and decoder independently make up-sample filters selections.

A method up-samples images in a reduced resolution video, wherein each image I(x, y) stores depths d at pixel locations (x, y). each depth image is scaled up to produce a corresponding up-scaled image. Then, image dilation, a median filter, image erosion, and a min-max filter are applied in order to produce a corresponding up-sampled image.

The invention relates to an improved robustness in upscaling the resolution of regularly sampled multi-dimensional signals, where a single low-resolution signal is available. These methods are referred to as example-based super-resolution or single-image super-resolution. A method for super-resolving a single image comprises three stages. First, an interpolation-based up-scaling of the input image is performed, followed by a Local De-noising step in contour regions. The second stage comprises extrapolation through cross-scale block matching, wherein an extrapolated high-frequency band is obtained that is de-noised through regularization in the same contour regions. The third stage comprises adding the contributions of the low-frequency band of the high-resolution image and the extrapolated high-frequency band.

A wind power plant group correlation area division method based on a correction experience variation function is given with a space down-scaling thought, and a wind power plant group is divided into a plurality of correlation areas; on the basis, a space up-scaling thought is adopted, an experience accumulation distribution function is used, correlations between reference wind power plants and target wind power plants in the correlation areas are considered, and wind speeds of the target wind power plants are calculated by the aid of wind speeds of the reference wind power plants, and finally, wind speed curves of all the wind power plants in the wind power plant group are obtained. Therefore, the method has the advantages as follows: (1) the effect caused by the time delay factor is introduced, characteristics of the wind power plant group during actual operation are more conformed, and the prediction effect is better; (2) wind speed distribution of all the wind power plants in the wind power plant group can be effectively described with the space down-scaling and up-scaling thoughts.

An improved apparatus and method for flushing an auger-type crushed ice making machine prevents build up of scale and other contaminants. The system feeds a flushing liquid to the top of the extrusion head such that it flows down through the device, thereby cleaning the auger and sleeve. The flushing liquid may be water or a solution having chemicals that help to remove built up scale or other contaminants.

A display apparatus includes pixels, gate lines and data lines, a gate driver driving the gate lines, a data driver driving the data lines, and a timing controller controlling the gate and data drivers and applying a resolution control signal to the data driver. The data driver applies a first line data signal to the pixels connected to a first gate line of the gate lines from image data and a second line data signal to a second gate line of the gate lines based on the first line data signal in response to a shift start pulse signal when the resolution control signal indicates an up-scaling mode.
