IPC: H04N7/26

Abstract: The invention relates to an encoding method for the compression of a video sequence divided into groups of frames (GOFs), each of which is decomposed by means of a three-dimensional (3D) wavelet transform comprising successively, at each decomposition level, a motion compensation step, a temporal filtering step, and a spatial decomposition step. The motion compensation is based on a motion estimation leading to motion vectors which are encoded and put in the coded bitstream together with, and just before, the coded texture information of the concerned spatial decomposition level. The encoding operation of the motion vectors is carried out at the lowest spatial resolution, and only refinement bits of said motion vectors at each of the other spatial resolutions are put in the coded bitstream refinement bitplane by refinement bitplane. Specific markers are introduced in the coded bitstream for indicating the end of the bitplanes, the temporal decomposition levels and the spatial decomposition levels respectively. According to the present invention, for each temporal decomposition level, additional specific markers are then introduced in the coded bitstream, for indicating in each spatial decomposition level the end of the motion vector information related to said spatial decomposition level. This solution allows, in case of very low decoding bitrate, to skip the residual motion information and to decode only the texture information, or, in another implementation, to skip said residual motion information and also the remaining spatial levels of the concerned temporal level.

Abstract: A transcutaneous immunization system delivers antigen to immune cells without
perforation of the skin, and induces an immune response in an animal or human. The
system uses an adjuvant, preferably an ADP-ribosylating exotoxin, to induce an antigen-specific
immune response (e.g. humoral and/or cellular effectors) after transcutaneous
application of a formulation containing antigen and adjuvant to intact skin of the animal or
human. The efficiency of immunization may be enhanced by adding hydrating agents (e.g.
liposomes), penetration enhancers, or occlusive dressings to the transcutaneous delivery
system. This system may allow activation of Langerhans cells in the skin, migration of the
Langerhans cells to lymph nodes, and antigen presentation.

Title: Method for sticking labels on a lens-fitted photo film unit
Inventor: YUJI MIKAMI
IPC: G03C3/00
Filed: 1998-10-01
Abstract: A protective cover (13) for a taking lens is provided in the front of
a lens-fitted photo film unit. The protective cover cooperates with a shutter
locking mechanism which locks a shutter button (4) when the protective
cover is in a closed position in front of the taking lens. The protective cover
also cooperates with a flash prevention mechanism which turns off a flash
charge switch off when the protective cover moves in the closed position,
prevents the flash charge switch from being moved to its ON position so long
as the protective cover is in the closed position, and allows the flash charge
switch to be moved to the ON position when the protective cover is moved
away from the taking lens. The protective cover is slidable in a horizontal
direction on a front surface portion of the film unit, and the front surface
portion is straight in the horizontal direction. The protective cover has a
vertical length that does not interfere with a bottom lid (12) that is provided
for removal of an exposed photo filmstrip. A first label is stuck on a front
surface of the protective cover, and a second label is wrapped around the film
unit excluding the front surface portion the protective cover slide thereon, to
decorate and dust-proof the film unit and reinforce the unit housing.

Abstract: Contact centres are typically arranged to receive incoming contacts from
customers and act accordingly. That is, the customer initiates contact with
the contact centre. More recently, a need has arisen for contact centres to
be able to initiate communication with customers. For example, to inform
a customer that his or her flight has been cancelled and offer that
customer the option to take part in an interactive communication session
to book a new flight. A communications system such as a contact centre
is interfaced with a business system such as customer relationship
management system. In this way messages can be proactively sent to
users.
