Title: Detecting image impairments in an interpolated image
Inventor: DIGGINS JONATHAN
IPC: H04N19/593
Filed: 2012-10-03
Abstract: A method and apparatus detects image impairments or artifacts e.g. 209 caused by interpolation in an output image 203 interpolated from two or more input images 201 and 202. The method comprises applying a substantially shift invariant transform to the interpolated image and to at least one of the input or adjacent images to derive a transformed image representation for each image.

Differences between the transformed image representations indicative of image impairments in the output image caused by interpolation are determined from a sum of the results of the comparisons. The transform may be a Fourier transform magnitude or associated power spectrum, dual tree discrete wavelet transform (DT-DWT) or Hough transform. The images may be divided into a plurality of blocks where the transform may be applied to each of the image blocks and the comparison applied to spatially corresponding blocks of the transformed image representations.

Title: Changing configuration of processors for data packet distribution based on metric
Inventor: KURSUN EREN
IPC: G06F1/32
Filed: 2012-11-01
Abstract: A data processing component contains multiple processing resources. Data packets are distributed to the processors for processing their tasks. A metric for the current configuration of the processing resources is identified 306, which may take into account demand, temperature, component wear-out, or similar values. If the metric values are appropriate 312, a new configuration of the processing resources is selected 314. The processing resources are adapted to the new configuration 316 and newly-received data packets are distributed accordingly 318. The configuration may also be changed based on its ability to match the workload demand. This allows the multi-processor system to operate more efficiently.

Title: In-vehicle training method/system for teaching fuel economy
Inventor: GREENBERG JEFF ALLEN
IPC: B60R16/023
Filed: 2012-11-29
Abstract: A fuel economy teaching method comprises activating, e.g. via a voice command or manual switch, an in-vehicle training mode 202. At step 204 an interactive module (102, fig 1) verifies that a location, e.g. in a parking lot, filed etc, is suitable for conducting vehicle training and sends an instruction set for an initial vehicle manoeuvre such as accelerating the vehicle at a fixed rate. By calculating fuel economy during the initial vehicle manoeuvre, an optimized speed/acceleration profile is computed 206. Subsequent vehicle manoeuvres 210 are initiated, and the speed/acceleration profiles computed during subsequent vehicle manoeuvres are compared to the optimized speed/acceleration profile 212. Corrective feedback is generated during subsequent vehicular manoeuvres upon deviations from the optimized speed/acceleration profile 214 and the entire training activity is summarised 216. The feedback may be an audible signal or in a visual format or a combination of both. Reference is also made to an in-vehicle fuel economy teaching system and to a vehicular fuel economy training system.

Title: Flexible and adaptive formulations for complex reservoir simulations
Inventor: LU PENGBO
IPC: E21B41/00
Filed: 2011-06-29
Abstract: A method for performing a simulation of a subsurface hydrocarbon reservoir is disclosed. Each cell in a reservoir model has an equation set representing a reservoir property. A stability limit is determined for each cell. Each cell is assigned to an explicit or implicit formulation. A solution to the system of equations is solved for using an initial guess and an explicit or implicit formulation. A stability limit is calculated for the converged cells. When the number of unconverged cells is greater than a predetermined amount, a reduced nonlinear system is constructed with a list of unconverged cells. The reduced nonlinear system is solved with the implicit formulation, and other cells are solved with the explicit formulation. Parts of the method are repeated until all equation sets satisfy a convergence criterion and a stability criterion, and the solved solution is output.
