Title: Method and system using prediction and error correction for the compact representation of quantization matrices in video compression
Inventor: KORODI GERGELY FERENC
IPC: H04N7/50
Filed: 2012-03-09
Abstract: In some implementations, a method for encoding data comprising a matrix of elements for scaling transform coefficients before quantization of the scaled transform coefficients includes generating a sequence of values from the elements of the matrix according to a predetermined order. A plurality of adjacent values in the sequence is generated from respective elements of the matrix.

Abstract: A method of reforming a gasification gas, in order to decompose the impurities comprised in it, and a new use of a noble metal catalyst in the pre-reforming of gasification gas. In the present method, the gas is brought into contact with a metal catalyst in the presence of an oxidising agent. According to the present invention, the reformation is carried out in several stages, in which case at least in one of the first stages a noble metal catalyst is used, and in a second stage which follows the first stage the catalyst used is a metal catalyst. The use of a noble metal catalyst reduces the risk of deactivation of the metal catalysts and thus increases the operating life of the catalyst.

Abstract: A shield that protects high-value input resistors in a power meter against unwanted effects due to electromagnetic interference from a nearby power supply and/or due to crosstalk from adjacent phases. The shield includes multiple printed circuit board shields (302a-e) that are arranged between each of the input resistors (300a-d) on a main printed circuit board (106) in the power meter. Each PCB shield (302a-e) has a conductive layer (305) that provides the shielding against unwanted energy. The resistors (300a-d) are arranged in a diagonal or parallel manner between each pair of PCB shields (302a-e) to prevent the resistor from movement, which prevents pin fatigue and fixes the value of the parasitic capacitance that is produced in the resistor- PCB - shield combination. In another configuration, the PCB shield is made of a flexible material, and snakes between and over the top or around the side ends of each resistor in a serpentine fashion, protecting the resistors from unwanted energies from both the top and the sides. The PCB shields disclosed herein eliminate variations in the percent error of the measurement phases, which contributes to achieving a highly accurate meter with an overall accuracy of less than 0.1%.
