Patent DE-68915886-T2 (DE)

Abstract: Hierarchal encoding of an image is achieved by first deriving a picture element array of binary coded intensity values representing the image and then deriving from the intensity values of the picture element array a sequence of hierarchal codes consisting of one of the intensity values as the first code followed by n-1 cyclic differences between n-1 distinct pairs of intensity values, where n is the total number of intensity values of the picture element array. The distinct pairs of intensity values are systematically selected by making alternating horizontal and vertical passes through the picture element array of intensity values. In each horizontal pass, consecutive nonoverlapping adjoining pairs of intensity values are selected along consecutive rows of the picture element array and successive undersampled arrays, the undersampled array for a horizontal pass being constructed by eliminating every other row from the undersampled array for the preceding vertical pass. In each vertical pass consecutive vertically adjoining pairs of intensity values are selected along consecutive nonoverlapping adjacent pairs of rows of successive undersampled arrays, the undersampled array of a vertical pass being constructed by eliminating every other column from the picture element array or the undersampled array for the preceding horizontal pass. The sequence of hierarchal codes may be compressed with variable length coding prior to transmission or storage. Decoding of the sequence of hierarchal codes to reconstruct the picture element array of intensity values follows the inverse of the encoding procedure, in which the first code of the sequence is the intensity value of a designated position of the picture element array, and the other intensity values are derived by taking the cyclic difference between decoded intensity values and successive hierarchal codes in alternating horizontal and vertical passes corresponding to those used in the encoding procedure.

Abstract: There is described a photographic element in which increased exposure latitude is obtained by having a dye-forming coupler in a non-light-sensitive interlayer between two light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers. One of the silver halide emulsion layers is sensitive to a first region of the spectrum and contains a dye-forming coupler that forms a dye complementary in color to the region of the spectrum to which that layer is sensitive. The second emulsion layer is sensitive to a second region of the spectrum and contains a second coupler that forms a dye complementary to the second region of the visible spectrum. The exposure latitude in the layer sensitive to the first region of the spectrum is increased when the coupler in the interlayer forms a dye complementary in color to the second region of the spectrum, but as a function of development in the first region of the spectrum.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an edible spread and to a processes for producing such a spread. The invention provides an edible, water and oil emulsions in which the fat phase is essentially a single, natural, vegetable fat. While certain non-physical properties of the fat phase, such as it's colour, may be due to the presence of other fats than that responsible for the characteristic physical properties, the fat phase of spreads according to the invention contain low amounts of such natural additives and the physical properties of the fat phase are essentially determined by a single fat which has not been subjected to any chemical treatment other than refining. Typically, the vegetable fat contains a majority of 18-carbon fatty acids, and contains at least 30% H2U triglycerides, at most 50% of which are H2O. In an embodiment of the present invention the bulk of both the H2O and the H2L is present in a symmetric configuration. Preferably, the fat is a refined soybean oil.
