摘要:
Encoding processes are performed in their respective encoding modes until their respective quantized DCT (discrete cosine transform) coefficients are generated. Based on information about code amounts generated in the encoding modes, an encoding mode that provides a smallest code amount is determined. DCT coefficients corresponding to the determined encoding mode are subjected to variable-length encoding.

In the image encoding apparatus, the bus traffic monitoring unit monitors the traffic of the memory bus and when the memory bus is congested, the prediction selector is instructed to select the output from the DC prediction unit. Conversely, when the memory bus is not congested, the prediction selector is instructed to select the output from the AC prediction unit. The memory unit stores therein DC coefficients and AC coefficients outputted from the DCT unit so that AC prediction encoding can be performed.

An image data transfer method including the steps of: (a) reading pixel data of a two-dimensional image stored in a first image storage and having a plurality of pixels, the position of each of the pixels being represented by coordinates of first and second directions, the pixel data being read by scanning data transfer units of the pixel data in the second direction where each of the data transfer units is formed by data of a predetermined number of pixels consecutive in the first direction; (b) writing the data transfer units read at step (a) in a temporary data storage where data is stored at a position designated by a combination of first and second addresses, the data transfer units being written in burst mode in a region of the temporary data storage in which the first addresses are consecutive while the second address is fixed; and (c) reading the data transfer units written in the temporary data storage from the region in which the first addresses are consecutive while the second address is fixed in burst mode and writing the read data transfer units in a second image storage.

A VLC mode judgment section performs judgment on whether or not a received group (Last, Run, Level) exists in a VLC table and then performs judgment on which one of a first escape mode, a second escape more and a third escape mode is suitable. According to a judgment result of the VLC mode judgment section, an FLC processing section or a coding mode selection section performs variable-length coding using selected one of the received group (Last, Run, Level), a group generated in the first escape mode, and a group generated by the second escape group or fixed-length coding using a third escape mode.

A robot includes a body structure on which a robot arm having an end effector is rotatably supported. The body structure has a stationary base unit fixedly installed and a movable unit rotatably supported on the stationary base unit to turn about an axis of rotation. The stationary base unit includes a stationary-side guide part having a stationary-side internal space in which a flexible, elongate member connected to the robot arm or the end effector is extended loosely along the axis of rotation. The stationary-side guide part opens upstream in an elongate member inserting direction. The movable unit includes a movable-side guide part having a movable-side internal space in which the elongate member is extended loosely along the axis of rotation. The movable-side guide part opens downstream in an elongate member inserting direction. The stationary-side and the movable-side internal spaces communicate with each other.
摘要:
Compressed image data from a code memory is separated into quantization step values, code table information and variable-length codes. The variable-length codes are each decoded into a run length, a size and an additional bit string and written into a size memory. A size conversion section converts the run length, the size and the additional bit string from the size memory based on a frequency region and a size conversion amount set in a size conversion table. A variable-length code is assigned to each converted run length/size combination, and an additional bit string is attached thereto, thereby producing a variable-length code. The variable-length codes, the quantization step values and the code table information are multiplexed together to produce compressed image data.
摘要:
A method for inducing the differentiation of stem cells into tissue cells; a bioartificial organ, which contains the tissue cells; and a material for medical purposes, which contains the bioartificial organ are disclosed. Stem cells capable of proliferation, self-replication and differentiation are used and cultured by a hanging-drop method to three-dimensionally construct a cell mass of embryoid bodies, and the cell mass is cultured in the presence of HGF, GDNF, b-FGF, BMP7 and EGF. In this manner, the stem cells can be differentiated into tissue cells. A bioartificial organ can be produced using cells that have been differentiated into the tissue cells. Further, a material for medical purposes can be provided.

A picture coding apparatus includes a static area information calculating unit that calculates static area information indicating a size of a static area of which motion is smaller than a predetermined value for each of fields included in an interlaced picture, a reference field selecting unit that selects, as a reference field to be used to predict a field to be coded, one of a field having of the same parity as a field to be coded and a field having the opposite parity of the field to be coded, among fields previously coded, based on the static area information of the fields previously coded, and a coding unit that codes the field to be coded by using the reference field selected by the reference field selecting unit.
摘要:
The code amount in first video data is counted. The difference between the counted code amount and a predetermined code amount is summed. A target code amount for second video data to be encoded after the first video data is corrected based on the accumulated sum. An evaluation function for the second video data is selected based on the calculation of the motion vector of the second video data. The process calculates a first value based on a first quantization parameter for the first video data, the selected evaluation function and the counted code amount, and a second value based on a second quantization parameter for the second video data, the selected evaluation function and the corrected target code amount, and determines the second quantization parameter so that a difference between the first value and the second value is less than or equal to a predetermined amount.
