Abstract:
An imaging system (10) includes: iris imaging means (1) for photographing an iris of a subject; first irradiation means (2a) for applying light to the subject; and second irradiation means (2b) for applying light to the subject in such a manner that an angle between an optical axis of the light emitted from the second irradiation means (2b) and an optical axis of the iris imaging means (1) is larger than an angle between an optical axis of the light emitted from the first irradiation means (2a) and the optical axis of the iris imaging means (1).
Abstract:
To provide a system, a method and the like for acquiring more images or more quickly focused images. A control device acquires information regarding a situation of a range captured by an imaging device, determines a mode according to an assumed situation of the range captured by the imaging device among a plurality of focusing modes, and transmits designation information specifying the determined mode to the imaging device. The imaging device receives the designation information from the control device, and captures an image using the mode specified by the received designation information.

Abstract:
Provided are a system, a method, and the like which contribute to more reliably and smoothly providing information relating to an authentication result to a person who has been subjected to authentication. An information provision system according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: an authentication unit which authenticates an authentication subject, who is to be subjected to authentication, using a captured image of the authentication subject; a determination unit which, in accordance with information about the authentication subject or the conditions of the authentication subject, determines the transmission destination to which information relating to the authentication result is to be transmitted in order to notify the authentication subject of the authentication result; and a transmission unit which transmits the information to the determined transmission destination.
Abstract:
A video encoding device 10 includes: an quadtree split flag encoding unit 11 for entropy-encoding a flag indicating whether or not a block is partitioned based on a quadtree structure; a skip flag encoding unit 12 for entropy-encoding a skip flag of an end node in a quadtree structure; a binary tree information encoding unit 13 for entropy-encoding a flag indicating whether or not a block of the end node in the quadtree structure is partitioned based on a binary tree structure and a horizontal/vertical splitting direction flag indicating a splitting direction; and a size multiplexing unit 14 for multiplexing information indicating a minimum size of partitioning based on the binary tree structure, in a bitstream, wherein in the case where a node of a size equal to the minimum size is further partitioned based on the binary tree structure, the binary tree information encoding unit 13 does not entropy-encode the horizontal/vertical splitting direction flag at the node.
Abstract:
A video encoding device 10 includes: an entropy encoding unit 11 for entropy-encoding data relating to a quadtree structure and data relating to a binary tree structure; and an encoding prohibition unit 12 for, in the case where a block obtained by partitioning based on the quadtree structure is not partitioned based on the binary tree structure, prohibiting entropy-encoding the data relating to the binary tree structure of the block.
Abstract:
An entropy encoding control unit 13, in the case where the skip flag of a block of an end node in a quadtree structure indicates that the binary tree split flag succeeds, causes the entropy encoding unit 11 to entropy-encode the binary tree split flag and the binary tree split direction flag, and in the case where the skip flag of the block of the end node in the quadtree structure indicates that the binary tree split flag does not succeed, causes the entropy encoding unit 11 not to entropy-encode the binary tree split flag and the binary tree split direction flag, and in the case where a node of a size equal to the minimum size is further partitioned based on the binary tree structure, causes the entropy encoding unit 11 not to entropy-encode the binary tree split direction flag at the node.
Abstract:
An image quantization parameter encoder includes: a prediction unit for generating a predicted quantization parameter from a past reconstructed quantization parameter; a computing unit for generating a delta quantization parameter from a quantization parameter and the predicted quantization parameter; and a quantization parameter encoding unit for binary-arithmetic-encoding a first bin indicating whether the delta quantization parameter is significant; and when the delta quantization parameter is determined to be significant, other bins, which are encoded subsequent to the first bin, indicating an absolute value of the delta quantization parameter, and a sign bin, which is encoded subsequent to the other bins, indicating whether the delta quantization parameter is positive or negative, wherein the binary-arithmetic-encoding is performed using contexts for the first bin and the other bins, and using no context for the sign bin, and wherein the binary-arithmetic-encoding is performed using a first context for the first bin and using a second context for the other bins.
Abstract:
A video encoding device includes: a first video encoding section 11 for encoding an input image to generate first coded data; a buffer 12 for storing the input image; a coded data transcoding/merging section 13 for transcoding and then merging the first coded data generated by the first video encoding section 11, to generate second coded data; and a second video encoding section 14 for estimating a syntax value for encoding the input image stored in the buffer 12 based on the second coded data supplied from the coded data transcoding/merging section 13, to generate a bitstream. The first video encoding section 11 has a function of handling a first encoding process included in a second encoding process handled by the second video encoding section 14. The coded data transcoding/merging section 13, in the case where a predetermined condition is met, merges frequency transform/quantization blocks in the second encoding process.
