Abstract:
A method for reducing the storage requirement or complexity of context-based coding in three-dimensional or multi-view video encoding and decoding is disclosed. The system selects the context based on selected information associated with one or more neighboring blocks of the current block conditionally depending on whether the one or more neighboring blocks are available. The syntax element is then encoded or decoded using context-based coding according to the context selection. The syntax element to be coded may correspond to an IC (illumination compensation) flag or an ARP (advanced residual prediction) flag. In another example, one or more syntax elements for coding a current depth block using DMM (Depth Map Model) are encoded or decoded using context-based coding, where the context-based coding selects a by-pass mode for at least one selected syntax element.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus of three-dimensional/multi-view coding using aligned reference information are disclosed. The present system aligns the reference information associated with the reference view of the derived DV with the reference information associated with a selected reference view by modifying the selected reference view or by modifying the derived DV or a converted DV derived from depth block pointed by the derived DV. The DV can be derived using the Neighboring Block Disparity Vector (NBDV) process. When the reference view of the derived DV is different from the selected reference view, the system scales the derived DV or changes the converted DV to refer to the selected reference view. The system may also set the selected reference view to the reference view of the derived DV.
Abstract:
A method of converting first data into second data includes: determining a target symbol corresponding to the first data by utilizing a determining unit; and generating the second data corresponding to the determined target symbol. One of the first data and the second data is a syntax element, and the other of the first data and the second data is an entropy-coded result of the syntax element. The target symbol corresponding to the first data is determined adaptively according to occurrence probability of candidate syntax element values of the syntax element.
Abstract:
A device for fluorescence-based imaging and monitoring of a target comprising: a light source emitting light for illuminating the target, the emitted light including at least one wavelength or wavelength band causing at least one biomarker associated with the target to fluoresce; and a light detector for detecting the fluorescence.
Abstract:

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to systems and methods which accommodate OTA delays exceeding the delay associated with a 100 km transmission (more than approximately 0.667 ms) while still affording the full processing time required by both the UE and the eNode B equipment.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the technical field of data or file synchronization. In particular, the present invention relates to a method and system for data synchronization using character string matching. Provided are a method, computer program product, and system for data synchronization between a source node and target node. An old copy and a new copy of data to be synchronized is received. A block map is generated according to the difference determined using character string matching between the old copy and the new copy. The block map, which includes the position information of unchanged blocks and the position information and contents of changed blocks, is transmitted to a target node.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for data configuration. The data configuration method includes: before a network element accesses a network, invoking, by a management unit, a first interface between the management unit and a managed unit to request the managed unit to download configuration data of the network element from a position designated by the management unit; and invoking, by the management unit, a second interface between the management unit and the managed unit to request the managed unit to generate a full configuration data file of the network element according to the configuration data. Through the method and the apparatus for data configuration provided in the embodiments of the present invention, automatic download of the configuration data of the network element may be implemented, and human cost of deployment is reduced.
Abstract:
A commercially viable method is provided herein for isolating and purifying steviol glycosides from a source containing the steviol glycosides. The method includes the first step of passing an organic solution containing the steviol glycosides through a chromatographic column, where the packing medium in the column has been compressed substantially to avoid voids therein, and then the packing medium is maintained under a pressure of up to about 1500 psi to thereby provide an organic solution containing impure stevioside derivatives.
