Abstract:
A method and apparatus for inserting scalability and view information into a Moving Picture Experts Group-2 (MPEG-2) Transport Stream (TS) header are provided. When a scalable video or multi-view video is transmitted using an MPEG-2 system, scalability information or view information regarding the scalable video or multi-view video in a payload in a TS level may be used. Using the scalability information or view information, the TS-packetized scalable video or multi-view video may be efficiently adapted to various terminal performances, various network characteristics, a specific user preference, and the like.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for an adaptive Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) streaming service using metadata of media content are provided. The media content may include a sequence of one or more periods. The metadata may include a start time attribute and/or a duration attribute of each of the periods. The metadata may determine a start time of each of the periods, and a start time of each of segments included in each of the periods. A terminal may access segments included in each of the periods, may decode and render data of media content included in the segments, and may play back the media content.
Abstract:
A method of decoding a video signal on a decoding apparatus includes receiving prediction mode information, interpolating information and a residual of a current block, reconstructing an interpolating pixel using the interpolating information and a neighbor block, and reconstructing the current block using the interpolating pixel, the prediction mode information and the residual, wherein the interpolating information is generated based on a location of the current block. High reconstruction rate can be obtained by improving the related art method having limited intra prediction modes available for a current block located on a boundary area of a picture in encoding in a manner of reconstructing and using an interpolating pixel based on interpolating information.
Abstract:

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition containing a paper mulberry extract, and more particularly to a composition containing, as an active ingredient, a paper mulberry extract which has effects on enhancement of skin moisturization, inhibition of skin aging, alleviation of inflammation, antibacterial activity, pore size reduction, sebum control, skin complexion improvement, decomposition of subcutaneous fat, stimulation of melanin synthesis, and gray hair prevention.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to recombinant microorganisms having an increased ability to produce butanol, and a method of producing butanol using the same. More specifically, the invention relates to recombinant microorganisms whose ability to produce butanol was increased by manipulation of their metabolic networks, and a method of producing butanol using the same. The recombinant microorganisms having an increased ability to produce butanol comprise a deletion of a gene, which encodes an enzyme that converts acetyl CoA to acetate, in host microorganisms having genes that encode enzymes involved in acetyl CoA and butyryl CoA biosynthetic pathway. The recombinant microorganisms obtained by manipulating the metabolic flux of microorganisms are able to selectively produce butanol with high efficiency, and thus are useful as microorganisms for producing industrial solvents and transportation fuels.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method for adsorption/desorption of lithium ions from brine, which employs a counter current decantation process in adsorption/desorption of lithium ions, thereby achieving an adsorption rate of 65±5% and a desorption rate of 95±3%. The method includes supplying brine into one of a plurality of adsorption reactors, adsorbing lithium ions to an adsorbent by supplying the adsorbent to the adsorption reactor to which the brine is supplied and forcing the brine and the adsorbent to sequentially flow backwards inside the respective adsorption reactors, and desorbing the lithium ions from the brine by forcing the adsorbent to which the lithium ions are adsorbed to sequentially flow backwards inside a plurality of desorption reactors. Here, the brine and the adsorbent are stirred by a stirrer to maintain the adsorbent in an intermediate state instead of settling or floating inside the respective adsorption reactors.
Abstract:
A multi-view image coding apparatus and method are provided. The multi-view image coding apparatus may extract geometric information from a plurality of cameras, may construct a spatial prediction structure to enable a correlation of each view to be maximum using the geometric information, and thereby may code and transmit a multi-view image.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for encoding and de1/5/2012coding motion information and disparity information are provided. The apparatus may extract a vector from peripheral blocks of a current block, which is a vector of the same type as a vector used for predicting and compensating the current block, and perform prediction and compensation of the current block using the extracted vector.
Abstract:
A three-dimensional (3D) compressing method and apparatus is disclosed. The 3D video compressing apparatus determines whether a motion of consecutive frames exists when a depth of a multi-view video is estimated, performs a depth estimation when the motion exists, and compresses the 3D video by using a color video motion vector as a depth video motion vector.
