摘要:
Image information is stored into a memory device (FMORG) which is controlled in such a manner that only image information from a movement phase different from the movement phase of the image information already stored in the memory device (FMORG), is stored into the memory device (FMORG), whereby the memory device (FMORG) provides image information from a movement phase which differs from a movement phase of the image information by a fixed number of movement phases, even when the image information contains repeated movement phases.

In a method of controlling a picture signal processing mode, first and second motion vectors are determined (ME, D.sub.T) for first and second fields, and a picture signal processing mode control signal is obtained by comparing (D.sub.T, -, COMP-R) the first and second motion vectors. The control signal may be transmitted along with, for example, a HDTV signal to give an indication to a TV receiver whether the signal originated from movie-film or from non-movie-film or be generated within the receiver.

In a method of measuring noise in image signals, a number of noise estimates (SAD) is calculated (1). Subsequently, it is determined (3-9) which noise estimation interval [A, B] out of a plurality of predetermined noise estimation intervals [A, B] contains at least a predetermined number of noise estimates (SAD) and has at the same time the lowest upper interval boundary. The output noise measurement value depends on the determined noise estimation interval.

In a method of converting an interlaced video signal (IS) into an output sequentially scanned video signal (SSS), a first sequentially scanned video signal (SS1) is furnished in dependence upon the interlaced video signal (IS). Subsequently, a motion-compensated sequentially scanned signal (MCS) is furnished in dependence upon the first sequentially scanned video signal (SS1). All video lines of the output sequentially scanned video signal (SSS) are furnished in dependence upon both the first sequentially scanned video signal (SS1) and the motion-compensated sequentially scanned signal (MCS) to prevent inaccuracies in motion vectors used in the motion-compensated processing operation (5-9) from resulting in visible distortions.

To allow better quality rendering of video on any display, a method is proposed of encoding, in addition to video data (VID), additional data (DD), wherein the additional data includes at least one change time instant (TMA_1) indicating a change in time of a characteristic luminance (CHRLUM) of the video data, which characteristic luminance summarizes a set of luminances of pixels in an image of the video data, the method: generates on the basis of the video data (VID) descriptive data (DED) regarding the characteristic luminance variation of the video, the descriptive data comprising at least one change time instant (TMA_1), and encodes and outputs the descriptive data (DED) as additional data (DD).

A system for enhancing the appearance of an object comprises an illumination device (5) for providing enhancement illumination and a light recording device (1) for recording the reflection by the object of illumination on the object. A reference illumination is mixed (8) with the enhancement illumination. The information in the reflected light is filtered (9) to filter the reflection data (1) due to the reference illumination. These data are used for calculating the enhancement illumination in a processor (3).

A method for modifying an image being defined by a matrix of pixels comprises: •calculating (1) a color frequency distribution of the matrix of pixels; •defining (3) for each pixel an energy value as a weighted function of the color frequency of the pixel, so as to define an image saliency map; •transforming (5) the image, said transformation being based on the pixel energy values. A computer software product to apply the method, an apparatus and a TV set are also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a device and a method for extracting information from detected characteristic signals. A data stream (76, 78, 80, 82) derivable from electromagnetic radiation (14) emitted or reflected by an object (11) is received and a plurality of characteristic index elements (50) varying over time can be extracted therefrom. The index elements (50) comprise physiological information (48) indicative of at least one at least partially periodic vital signal (12), and a disturbing signal component (58). For eliminating the disturbing signal component (58) to a great extent, the characteristic index elements (50) can be projected to a disturbance-reduced index element (64) having a distinct orientation in relation to a presumed orientation of the disturbing signal component (58). The disturbance-reduced index element (64) is chosen so as to reflect a dominant main orientation and length of the disturbing signal component (58) over time. Consequently, the mainly genuine physiological information (48) extracted from the data stream (76, 78, 80, 82) in this way can be utilized for determining the at least one at least partially periodic vital signal (12).
