Title: Texture replacement in video sequences and images
Inventor: DUMITRAS ADRIANA
IPC: G06T5/00
Filed: 2002-10-04
Granted: 2006-08-29
Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing bit rates by replacing original texture in a video sequence with synthesized texture. Reducing the bit rate of the video sequence begins by identifying and removing selected texture from frames in a video sequence. The removed texture is analyzed to generate texture parameters. New texture is synthesized using the texture parameters in combination with a set of constraints. Then, the newly synthesized texture is mapped back into the frames of the video sequence from which the original texture was removed. The resulting frames are then encoded. The bit rate of the video sequence with the synthesized texture is less than the bit rate of the video sequence with the original texture. Also, the ability of a decoder to decode the new video sequence is not compromised because no assumptions are made about the texture synthesis capabilities of the decoder.

Title: Multiplex transmission system capable of using ordinary network packets to transmit a plurality of 8b/10b bit streams
Inventor: KAMIYA SATOSHI
IPC: H03M13/21
Filed: 2003-03-21
Granted: 2007-06-26
Abstract: A multiplex transmission system transmits a plurality of 8B/10B bit streams using ordinary network packets. A multiplex converter subjects a plurality of 8B/10B bit streams to 8B/10B decoding, performs 64B/65B encoding and then multiplexing, adds 7-bit CRC, then adds necessary overhead to construct packets, and finally, sends tine packets on a packet transmission path. An demultiplex converter removes the overhead from packets that have been received from the packet transmission path, uses the CRC to detect bit errors, carries out 64B/65B decoding, rate regulation, and 8B/10B encoding to restore to the original 8B/10B bit streams and sends the 8B/10B bit streams to respective channels.
