Abstract:
Segments for a video are transmitted in payload units with a supplemental enhancement information (SEI) message within which is embedded display adaptation information that may be employed to control display brightness and thereby reduce power consumption during display of the respective segment. The display adaptation information includes at least a maximum pixel brightness that may be used to scale pixel brightness to maximum and correspondingly reduce backlighting for liquid crystal displays, or to adjust the supply voltage for OLED displays. The display adaptation information may optionally include a minimum pixel brightness, a pixel histogram step size, and an indicator of scaling method.
Abstract:
To improve precision of visual search processing, SIFT points within a query image are forward matched to features in each of a plurality of repository images and SIFT points within each repository image are backward matched to features within the query image. Forward-only, backward-only and forward-and-backward matches may be weighted differently in determining an image match. Two way matching may be triggered by query image bit rate in excess of a threshold or by a sum of weighted distances between matching points exceeding a threshold. Significant performance gains in eliminating false positive matches are achieved.
Abstract:
Segments for a video are transmitted in payload units with an extended network abstraction layer unit (NALU) header or supplemental enhancement information (SEI) message within which is embedded display adaptation information that may be employed to control display brightness and thereby reduce power consumption during display of the respective segment. The display adaptation information includes at least a maximum pixel brightness that may be used to scale pixel brightness and correspondingly reduce backlighting for liquid crystal displays, or to adjust the supply voltage for OLED displays. The maximum pixel brightness is set to a level saturating a portion of the pixel histogram without perceptual loss to the viewer, resulting in further reduction of power consumption.
