摘要:
Apparatus and methods for decoding streaming data containing one or more coded pictures in which each picture contains a plurality of slices and each slice containing a plurality of macroblocks are disclosed. A first decoding subtask is performed on all macroblocks in the coded picture or a section thereof. After performing the first decoding subtask on all macroblocks in the coded picture or a section thereof, a second decoding subtask is performed on all the macroblocks in the coded picture or section thereof. One or more of the first and second tasks includes examining a slice or macroblock within the coded picture to determine if there are any errors, and if an error is present, handling the error.

A method of improving the lighting conditions of a real scene or video sequence. Digitally generated light is added to a scene for video conferencing over telecommunication networks. A virtual illumination equation takes into account light attenuation, lambertian and specular reflection. An image of an object is captured, a virtual light source illuminates the object within the image. In addition, the object can be the head of the user. The position of the head of the user is dynamically tracked so that an three-dimensional model is generated which is representative of the head of the user. Synthetic light is applied to a position on the model to form an illuminated model.

A single-crystal seed, apparatus and process for producing a casting having a single-crystal (SX) microstructure. The seed has a geometry that includes a vertex capable of destabilizing an oxide film that forms at the interface between the seed and a molten metal during the casting process, and thereby promotes a continuous single-crystal grain growth and reduces grain misorientation defects that can initiate from the seed/metal interface.

Novel fluorophosphite compounds having the structure of general formula (I): where Ar1 and Ar2 are aryl groups containing 4 to 30 carbon atoms; R1 to R6 are H or alkyl or aryl hydrocarbon radicals containing 1 to 40 carbon atoms; and X is a connecting group or a simple chemical bond, were developed and found to be very active for hydroformylation processes for ethylenically unsaturated substrates. Catalyst solutions prepared from these compounds with a Rh metal show an unusual “ligand acceleration effect” for simple alkenes, i.e., the hydroformylation activity increases as the concentration of ligand increases, and are capable of producing linear or branched aldehydes under typical hydroformylation conditions.

摘要:
A video transcoding method is provided for transcoding a first signal stream compressed by a first coding scheme to a second signal stream compressed by a second coding scheme. The method employs an adaptive frame rate and a joint temporal-spatial rate control technique, such that the overall quality of compressed MPEG video can be significantly enhanced when the transcoding is controlled in the joint temporal (picture or frame rate) and spatial (quantization) domains. One embodiment considers transcoding from high bit rate video with larger image size (e.g. 4CIF/4SIF, CIF) coded by one coding technique, e.g., MPEG-2 to a lower bit rate video with smaller image size (e.g. CIF, QCIF) coded by the same or another coding technique, e.g., MPEG-4.

An underwater clamp-type release apparatus has a main body and a release mechanism. The main body includes a housing, a motor stand, and a speed reducing gear motor while the release mechanism includes a base plate, a pair of clamp frames, a clamp, and a rotationally controlled block. The clamp is positioned between the two clamp frames and is pivotally connected to the clamp frames with a pin installed through holes in the clamp and the clamp frames. The top end of the clamp has a concave part for clamping and holding the working piece. The rotationally controlled block includes a bottom block, and an annular wall wherein the size of the inner diameter of the annular wall can just fit to contain the second end of the pair of the clamp arms when they are closed, and wherein the annular wall includes two openings opposite each other (180-degrees apart), and the total width of the second end of the clamp arms when they are closed allows them to pass through the openings when the two clamp arms are tending to open. Therefore, when the rotationally controlled block is controlled to turn an angle of 90-degrees, the two clamp arms are aligned with the openings at the rotationally controlled block to be opened, and the working piece is released.

A process for preparing EVA foam includes the steps of placing an amount of a kneaded composition in a mold such that the volume ratio of the kneaded composition to the mold cavity is about 0.15 to 0.5 and such that the kneaded composition is laid on the lower mold half, heating upper and lower mold halves of the mold in a manner that the temperatures of the upper and lower mold halves are not less than a reaction temperature, at which foaming and curing of the kneaded composition take place, and raising the temperature of the upper mold half to be higher than that of the lower mold half when the kneaded composition expands to a volume such that the volume ratio of the kneaded composition to the mold cavity is about 0.9 to 0.95.

A device for jettisoning an object into the water from a vessel has a body having a pair of parallel straight tracks each provided with a pivot seat and connection plate respectively mounted on opposite ends thereof, a locking assembly having an axle pivotally connected between one of the connection plates and one of the parallel straight tracks and two opposed locks securely mounted on different ends of the axle and a set of moving tracks pivotally connected with the pair of straight tracks of the body and having a pair of opposed ears respectively formed on the under side of each of the set of the moving tracks. With this arrangement, the cart is able to be safely moved before the device of the invention, and after deactivation of the locks on the moving tracks, the push cart with the object carried thereon is then smoothly moved to a position ready for jettisoning an object into the water.
