摘要:
An image coding method for improving coding efficiency by using more appropriate probability information is provided. The image coding method includes: a first coding step of coding a first set of blocks included in a first region sequentially based on first probability information; and a second coding step of coding a second set of blocks included in a second region sequentially based on second probability information. In the first coding step, the first probability information is updated depending on data of a target block to be coded, after coding the target block and before coding a next target block. In the second coding step, the second probability information is updated depending on the first probability information updated in the first coding step, before coding the first target block.

Metallic CNTs and semiconducting CNTs are efficiently separated from a CNT mixture of these CNTs, and semiconducting CNTs are separated by structure by using a method that enables separation in high yield in a short time period while conveniently enabling mass processing and automatic processing with inexpensive equipment.Multiple columns charged with gel are connected in series, and excess amounts of a CNT dispersion is passed through the columns to adsorb only the CNTs of a specific structure on the columns. The CNTs are then eluted with an elution to separate CNTs of different structures with high accuracy. The present technique represents a method that conveniently enables mass processing and automatic processing at high yield in a short time period with inexpensive equipment.

An image decoding device is provided that decodes, without an increase in the circuit size, a coded video sequence including a large-size block. The image decoding apparatus includes: a block division unit which divides a current block that is to be decoded and is included in a picture of the coded video sequence, into sub-blocks; an image obtainment unit which obtains, for each of the sub-blocks, image data corresponding to the sub-block from a recording medium; a prediction unit which generates, for each of the sub-blocks, a predicted image of the sub-block, based on the image data obtained by the image obtainment unit; and a reconstruction unit which reconstructs each of the sub-blocks, by adding the predicted image generated for the sub-block to the sub-block.

A user interface suited for use on mobile devices for entering characters which may require one or more modifiers is disclosed. The interface may be implemented utilizing a touch screen interface on which a user engages the interface, is provided feedback, and removes the user's touch to enter a character. The interface presents a series of main, supplemental and modifier keys. Touching an interface button or main key presents a series of “petals” or supplemental keys emanating from the main key. Each petal or supplemental key may in turn present one or more sub petals or modifier keys emanating from the supplemental key. Each petal or sub-petal may represent another character or a modifier action. The characters and/or actions on the supplemental keys and modifier keys provide options for characters or modifiers which are dependent or related to the main input key.

Provided is a motion estimation device in which an amount of pixel data transferred from an external frame memory to an internal reference local memory is reduced. By the motion estimation device, it is possible to reduce a memory capacity and a size or processing of a circuit controlling the pixel transfer. In a reference memory control unit and an internal reference memory, a height of a area to be updated is set to L pixels, where L is power of 2, a logical address segments, whose size is suitable for address calculation, are allocated to picture space, and FIFO management is performs. In another application, an assistance memory is added, and another element other than the assistance memory performs the FIFO management for rectangular areas in an image of a conventional width. As a result, the address calculation is simplified, which makes it possible to reduce an embedded circuit for the reference memory control unit and the internal reference memory.

An image decoding device and an image coding device are each capable of using spatial dependence across a boundary between slices to smoothly execute parallel processing. The image decoding device includes: a first decoding unit (801) decoding a block in a first slice; a second decoding unit (802) decoding a block in a second slice; and a first storage unit (811) storing inter-slice neighboring information (i) generated by decoding a boundary block included in the first slice and adjacent to the second slice and (ii) referenced when a boundary neighboring block included in the second slice and adjacent to the boundary block is decoded. The first decoding unit (801) generates the inter-slice neighboring information by decoding the boundary block and stores the generated information into the first storage unit (811). The second decoding unit (802) decodes the boundary neighboring block by reference to the stored inter-slice neighboring information.
