The invention relates to a method for reframing an image according to at least one predefined reframing method to obtain a reframed image for which the format ratio is equal to a target format ratio. The method comprises the following steps for: analyzing the image, selecting the predefined reframing method in a set of at least two reframing methods according to the result of the analysis step, and reframing said image using the selected reframing method. The invention also relates to a device for reframing an image.

The invention relates to an image processing method to generate, from a source image, an image of reduced size whose ratio between the width and the height is equal to a predetermined value, called reduced ratio. It comprises the following steps: selecting one rectangular image part in the source image, and extracting the rectangular image part to generate the reduced image. According to an essential characteristic of the method, if the ratio between the width and height of the rectangular image part, called first ratio, is not equal to the reduced ratio, the width or the height of the rectangular image part is modified before the extraction step according to values of perceptual interest associated with each pixel of the source image in such a manner that the ratio between the width and the height of the modified rectangular image part, called second ratio, is equal to the reduced ratio.

The present invention relates to a device and a process for motion-compensated recursive filtering and a corresponding coding system. The device comprises in particular a blockwise motion estimation module [(2)], means [(3)] for determining a recursivity noise level (σrec), a module (4) for calculating a prediction error (ε), a module [(5)] for calculating a recursivity coefficient (α) as a function of the recursivity noise level and of the prediction error, means [(6)] for calculating a motion-compensated image and means of filtering [(7, 8)] producing a weighting, by the recursivity coefficient, of the current input image and of a filtered and motion-compensated image stored previously. The device also comprises means [(3)] for determining an immobility noise level (σimm), and an assembly [(11, 12)] for processing zones constituting partitions of the blocks employed for the motion estimation, zeroing the motion vectors (d) associated with the zones in which the FDs are below a threshold dependent on the immobility noise level.

The present invention pertains to a method for selecting a version of a document. The user inputs an identifier of a document at the level of his receiver connected to at least one communication network, and initiates a search request to receive versions of at least one part of this document. The receiver then receives a plurality of versions of the said document. Each version received is analysed by a plurality of evaluation modules so as to calculate an evaluation value for each version received according to a predetermined criterion. The receiver selects for each of the evaluation modules a version of the document having the best evaluation in respect of this criterion, and displays the identifiers of versions having the best evaluations according to each criterion. The user can then easily select the version for reproduction thereof which best meets a criterion. The invention also relates to a receiver implementing the said method.

The present invention relates to a method for image processing to generate, from a source image having a predefined width to height ratio, called initial ratio, and an information banner having predefined width to height ratio, called banner ratio, a final image having a width called final and a height called final and for which the width to height ratio, called final ratio, is different from the initial ratio, comprising the following steps: determine a ratio called useful according to the final ratio and the banner ratio, extract from the source image a part of the image having a width to height ratio equal to the useful ratio, and generate, from the part of the image extracted and the information banner, a final image comprising in juxtaposition an image representative of the extracted image part having a width to height ratio equal to the useful ratio and an image representative of the information banner having a width to height ratio equal to the banner ratio.

The invention is a method for assessing image quality value of a distorted image with respect to a reference image. The method comprises the following steps: computing, for each pixel of the distorted image, at least one quality level with respect to the reference image; adding, for the distorted image, the quality levels associated to each pixel by weighting them by a weight depending on a perceptual interest of the pixel in order to get the image quality value, the weight being lower for a pixel of high perceptual interest.

A method for coding a picture portion of a picture of a video sequence is disclosed, at least one picture of the video sequence being a key picture. The method comprises the following steps: a) calculate a saliency map of the key picture, b) estimate for the picture portion to be coded, at least one motion vector pointing towards a portion of the key picture, c) motion compensate at least one portion of the saliency map using an estimated motion vector to obtain, for said picture portion, at least one portion of the predicted saliency map, and d) code the picture portion according to the saliency level of the portion of the predicted saliency map. The invention also relates to a method for decoding a binary stream, a coder able to code pictures of a video sequence and a decoder of a binary stream.
