20100303148 | MACROBLOCK-BASED DUAL-PASS CODING METHOD - The method comprises the following steps:
| 12-02-2010 |
20140314330 | INTER-IMAGE PREDICTION METHOD AND DEVICE AND CORRESPONDING CODING METHOD AND APPARATUS - The invention relates to a method for predicting a pixel block of an image using a weighted sum of pixel blocks belonging to patches of a dictionary from a set of candidate patches, each patch being formed of a pixel block of an image and a causal neighborhood of this pixel block. The method is wherein a subset of candidate patches is obtained from the set of candidate patches and the dictionary is formed of a patch of the subset of candidate patches, called the first patch, and at least one other patch of said set of candidate patches, called the second patch. | 10-23-2014 |
20140327609 | METHOD FOR GAZE-CONTROLLED TEXT SIZE CONTROL, AND METHODS FOR GAZE-BASED MEASURING OF A TEXT READING SPEED AND OF A NUMBER OF VISUAL SACCADES PER TEXT LINE - For gaze-controlled text size control of a display, the invention proposes to probe, sample and record a user's horizontal gaze Signal; to subject the gaze Signal to a subband filterbank or wavelet transform; to detect line delimiters in the gaze Signal; to derive a reading speed; to determine, as a number of saccades per text line the number of locations where the gaze Signal has sudden high slope portions surrounded on both sides by portions of markedly smaller slope; to detect, based on the reading speed and the number of saccades, a too small font size Status or a too big font size Status; and to initiate a corresponding font size change. Parts of this method can be used for gaze-based measuring of text reading speed and for gaze-based measuring of number of saccades. | 11-06-2014 |
20140355898 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ENCODING A BLOCK OF AN IMAGE AND CORRESPONDING RECONSTRUCTING METHOD AND DEVICE - The invention relates to image block encoding and decoding. More precisely, the invention relates to block prediction using reference blocks of the image. It is proposed a method which comprises using processing means for using at least the block for determining one reference block in an already encoded part of the image, encoding and reconstructing a part of the image, using at least the block for determining one reference block in the reconstructed part and a vector referencing the one reference block, using the one reference block for determining at least one further reference block in the reconstructed part and encoding the determined vector and a residual of the block with respect to a combination of the one and the at least one further reference block. Using the block for determination of the one reference block allows for selecting it such that it resembles the block and correlation with the block is maintained. | 12-04-2014 |
20150048933 | HAPTIC CHAIR FOR MOTION SIMULATION - A device for providing the illusion of motion consists of at least two movable parts for stimulating the vestibular sense and the kinaesthetic sense of a user independently from each other. A moving headrest is provided for stimulating the vestibular sense of a user and a moving armrest is provided for stimulating the kinaesthetic sense of a user. | 02-19-2015 |
