    摘要: A gas bag for a vehicle occupant restraint system comprises a flexible wall which defines several sides of the gas bag. The flexible wall has on at least one of its sides at least one fold in the inflated state of the gas bag, the fold being defined by permanently connected adjacent sections of the wall. The wall further comprises at least one seam for the connection of the adjacent sections so that the flexible wall is shortened on the side and, therefore, the geometrical shape of the gas bag is modified compared with the gas bag of similar configuration but without the seam.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for coding and/or decoding bitplanes are described. Aspects relate to speeding up bitplane coding when one or more entropy coders are used as part of the encoding process. A number, e.g., three, consistent value, e.g., zero value, bitplanes are identified and subjected to coding, e.g., in some embodiments using a JPEG 2000 arithmetic coder. Remaining bitplanes including data are subjected to coding using a second coding process, e.g., an entropy coding process implemented by a JPEG 2000 selective arithmetic bypass coder. By subjecting zero value bitplanes to the coding, e.g., arithmetic coder processing or its equivalent, 3 bitplanes are subjected to fast, easy to implement coding while non-consistent value bitplanes can be coded using selective arithmetic bypass coding. This satisfies the JPEG 2000 requirement that 3 bitplanes be generated in accordance with arithmetic coder processing while avoiding the normal delays associated with processing of non-consistent value bitplanes.

    摘要: Microsoft's recently proposed new image compression codec JPEG XR is currently undergoing ISO standardization as JPEG-XR. Even though performance measurements carried out by the JPEG committee indicated that the PSNR performance of JPEG XR is competitive, the visual performance of JPEG XR showed notable deficits, both in subjective and objective tests. This paper introduces various techniques that improve the visual performance of JPEG XR without leaving the current codestream definition. Objective measurements performed by the author indicate that the modified encoder, while staying backwards compatible to the current standard proposition, improves visual performance significantly, and the performance of the modified encoder is similar to JPEG.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for performing image encoding and rate control as part of the image encoding process, e.g., a JPEG-2000 compliant image encoding process, are described. As part of the image encoding processes, rate control operations are performed based on rate statistic information at a point where encoded image data in selected for storage in a buffer and based on updated statistic information at a point where encoded image data is selected to be output from the buffer. The statistic information including overhead information used for rate control is also updated after formatting of data to be included in the output set of encoded image data to reflect overhead, e.g., header overhead, associated with formatting the data for storage. Encoding and rate control is applied on an ongoing basis, e.g., as portions of an image are processed, so that buffer size does not grow proportionally with the image size.

    摘要: A low complexity visual masking method used as part of an image encoding process is described. The method is suitable for use in JPEG2000 image compression systems. Control weights used for rate allocation are generated based on integer order moments of wavelet transformed coefficients corresponding to a codeblock. The novel rate allocation weight generation method can, and in some embodiments is, combined with an apriori rate allocation algorithm, where allocation of bits to different portions of images is controlled as a function of one or more generated weights. The methods and apparatus of the present invention have the effect of increasing errors in busy areas of an image where they tend to be less noticeable and allocating a higher number of bits to less busy areas than some other systems, e.g., systems which attempt to minimize a mean squared error under a constraint of a user selected output rate.
