摘要:
An image recording apparatus has a feed system for feeding a recording sheet from a feed magazine to a drum, a drum system for winding the recording sheet therearound and rotating to align the recording position with a predetermined position on the circumferential surface of the drum, a scanning system for main-scanning the recording sheet at the recording position of the sheet with an optically modulated beam, and a storage system for storing the recording sheet on which an image has been formed. The drum is rotated in opposite directions during feed and storage of the sheet.

An image recording method having a first step of recording an image on a first area of a recording medium by the major scanning by a light beam scanning optical system and a first subsidiary scanning in which the recording medium is moved relative to the light beam scanning optical system in a direction intersecting the major scanning, and a second step of recording an image on a second area of the recording medium by the major scanning and a second subsidiary scanning in which the recording medium is moved relative to the light beam scanning optical system so that the first area again crosses the scanning area of the light beam scanning optical system.

This invention is a method for speeding up block matching based motion estimation for video encoder. The invention 1) calculates statistics for a candidate motion vector for a predetermined fraction of the pixels of a macroblock, 2) makes an early decision based on this preliminary cost function, and 3) terminates the block matching process without calculating the cost function for other pixels if the preliminary cost function is not less than a predetermined threshold. This early decision for goodness estimation provides an economy of processing load when a large portion of data is left untouched (i.e. unprocessed). The present invention employs feedback control to reduce the predetermined threshold for quick convergence upon each detection of a better match.

As a polishing composition which allows high-speed polishing while dishing and erosion are prevented and the flatness of metal film is maintained, there is provided a polishing composition for polishing a metal film provided on a substrate having trenches such that the metal film fills the trenches, so as to provide a planarized surface, wherein the composition comprises water, a phosphate ester having a C≧6 carbon atom alkyl group in its molecule, and an etchant for the metal, and has a pH of 5 to 11.

This invention corrects chrominance misalignment that occurs during chrominance down-sampling and up-sampling. The invention extracts a binary index from the corresponding luminance signal. The binary index enables generation of a filter window. On down-sampling the filter window is applied to a block of source chrominance pixels which are filtered or not based upon the binary index. On up-sampling the binary index of the filter window for the target chrominance pixels determines which are filtered or not.

In an opthalmic photographing apparatus, capable of photographing the fundus of an eye to be examined at a variable magnification, being provided with a ring slit in an illuminating optical path at a position substantially conjugate with the front-eye-part and being further provided with a baffle at a position substantially conjugate with the crystalline lens, the slit width of a ring slit image projected onto the eye to be examined and further the size of a baffle image are variable with a magnification change.
摘要:
The present invention aims to provide a polishing composition which allows high-speed polishing of a barrier film and an inter-layer dielectric film along with a wiring metal at the same time, while preventing dishing and erosion, and particularly maintaining the flatness of metal film. The chemical-mechanical polishing composition of the present invention comprises a dicarboxylic acid having 7 to 13 carbon atoms, an oxidizing agent, an abrasive and water.

Methods for contrast enhancement of digital images are provided. A method of adaptive histogram equalization is provided that determines weighting factors for discriminating between sub-regions of a digital image to be more enhanced or less enhanced. Another method for content adaptive local histogram equalization is provided that uses a mapping function in which the dynamic range is not changed by the transformation. A third method for contrast enhancement is provided that includes dividing a digital image into a plurality of regions of pixels, and for each region in the plurality of regions, determining a threshold gray level for the region, generating a mapping curve for the region based on the threshold gray level, and applying the generated mapping curve to each pixel in the region to enhance contrast.
