Abstract: Method for cutting an industrial-size roll of paper or other sheet material into two or more rolls. The apparatus of the method includes a circular saw with a radius large enough to cut through such a roll in a single cut, leaving press-ready rolls that require no finish-trimming on the ends. The saw blade is mounted in a saw frame that travels along a carriage and positions the blade at any desired cutting position on the roll. The apparatus includes a support bed and load-bearing arms for supporting the weight of a large roll and keeping it in position during the cutting operation. Load/unload tables and a system of kicking cylinders guide the roll onto and off of the support bed. The saw frame is a tower that positions the saw blade above the roll at the desired cutting position, or a floor frame that positions the saw along side or beneath the roll at the desired cutting position. The apparatus of the method further includes a finishing station for sanding the ends of cut rolls.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for video coding are disclosed, particularly for use in relation to video compression. Many commercially available video encoders support constant bit-rate encoding but not constant quality encoding. Aspects of the present invention are concerned with methods and apparatus for video coding, the methods involving the determination of bit-rates at which a constant bit-rate encoder may be operated such that segments of video can be chosen from files encoded at the bit-rates so-determined in order to produce an output bitstream in which the quality is nearly constant. Bitstream segments may be chosen from a low bit-rate bitstream for easy-to-compress scenes, and from a high bit-rate bitstream for hard-to-compress scenes.

Un processeur de sons (119) détermine une caractéristique pour une composante sonore d'un signal de rétroaction du trajet de rétroaction (105, 107, 109, 111, 113) et un processeur d'adaptation (121) adapte le trajet de rétroaction en réponse à la caractéristique de composante sonore. La présente invention permet de détecter le début d'une instabilité et d'établir une compensation dynamique pour limiter ou empêcher cette instabilité. On obtient ainsi une liberté de conception accrue du filtre de rétroaction, ce qui permet d'obtenir une meilleure suppression de bruit.
